Good morning! I hope that your day has started out well and you are accomplishing all that you have set out to finish today. We actually started our day a little later than usual. Our day yesterday and night, last night was filled (to overflowing) by a broken dishwasher and then a broken pipe under the sink. I’m so thankful…

An Empty Canvas
Fall is in the air…and thanks to a productive weekend…we’re showing signs around our home! Our outside “welcome”. Welcome to our home! I can’t keep people from making other words from my Autumn blocks. How many words can you make from Autumn? The weather has been beautiful….Courtney took these pictures from our yard this morning. Crepe Myrtle Purple flowers at…
Various Ramblings
Wednesday, already? These weeks do fly by too quickly! We are now on day 3 of our new schedule. So far, this morning, the children are buzzing around from place to place. We’ve had no real problems (This is a first! Normally, we have to re-do our schedule several times before we find something that works!) I don’t think anyone…
Popcorn, Anyone?
Last week was very long folks! About midweek our van died, again! Paul thinks that this van must have been submerged under water at some point because we have basically had to have almost everything under the car replaced due to rust! This week, we had the fan belt, fan belt pulley, water pump and radiator changed…to the tune of…
II Peter
Yesterday, I had the privilege of spending some time with two of our Yahoo Groups ladies making T-shirt dresses! It was a wonderful time of fellowship and I enjoyed getting to meet these two women in person! Today, we’re focusing our efforts on finishing the schedule. I thought that we would be finished yesterday, but it’s taking longer than I…
On the Mend
I couldn’t help but snap this photo during a recent down pour! This is the only down side to drying laundry outside. Believe it or not, it was so hot last week, after the laundry came in, the children stayed outside to play in it for a few minutes! We seem to be slowly returning to the world of healthy…
We’re Sick
It’s official. I have caught the “bug” that has been making the rounds in my home. Now, in addition to the pain that I’m still experiencing from surgery, I now also have what seems to be a pretty bad cold. The good news is that I went to the oral surgeon yesterday…he says no infection and that the pain I’m…
Prayer Update
I received word yesterday, that the Nate and Nayda’s baby (see prayer request list over the last few days), little James, has passed away. Nate and Nayda were able to have him home with them for a short time…it’s amazing how something so tiny can bring so much joy to a parent’s heart. I know that their hearts are grieving.…
Snapshots of Life
Paul and I have always enjoyed working together. It seems that these make some of the best times to share thoughts, plans and ideas. Last night was no exception. We were up way into the night working on a project Paul was hired to do, making a video montage for a couple that will soon be celebrating their 40th anniversary.…
Now Introducing…
It’s been a busy weekend. The “web page guru” had smoke flowing from his ears by about 6 p.m. on Saturday….he did so much, and I’m so proud of him. We share a common vision of what we would like our web spaces to be, and he’s working extra hard to get them there. Last week was very draining. It…
Saturday, at last!!
I‘m so very grateful for Saturday this week. The only thing that would make this day better for me would be a cool, refreshing rain. For whatever reason, the week of my birthday is always surrounded with what only could be described as chaos and turmoil. This week was no different. Thursday was my birthday. Over the last week, we’ve…
Car Repairs, Again?
I guess it’s rather obvious that we have some work going on “under the hood” of the website. We’re hoping to add a few more features to make the website more informative and interactive. It’s going to take a little while to tweak it all, so please excuse our construction mess for the time being. I postponed our sew-along. It…
