2013 Christmas
Well, Christmas part one has come and gone. It flew by. After the 23 hour drive, we headed to Brian's sister's home. She did such a beautiful job hosting Christmas! When we drove in, my brother-in-law had fajitas grillin'. The annual cousin picture is getting more and...

Grace undeserved
Grace - the unmerited favor my heart longs for. A few weeks ago, I had volunteered to bring a new mamma food one evening. I sat down at 6:30 pm on the couch, leaned back to relax, and then panicked. I realized I had completely forgotten. I quickly found her telephone...
Happy Thanksgiving!
Every year, my list continues to grow. My heart is overflowing. God has blessed our family beyond measure and we pray that we walk in His ways. Happy Thanksgiving! I thank my God every time I remember you. -Â Philippians 1:3
