Quotes of the Day

"The more we grow in grace, the more we see how far we have to go. It was the end of his life when Paul confessed himself chief of sinners."

"An old proverb that should be repeated more than it is -- the gateway of your mouth should have 3 keys. Is it true? Kind? Necessary?"


These are both entries from Douglas Wilson's twitter site...he's a good man to read!!

What a fun idea! Here is a FREE download - 100 Free Things to do With Your Grandkids E-book that you can use with your kids or grandkids! I looked through it quickly and found several things I'm going to do!

# 54 - Make Noisemakers...I'm thinking for family worship night!

Thanks fistfulofcoupons.com !

Blurry but fun.

So, I'm not the biggest 'gadget' fan, but every once in awhile I like them. Here is a picture that wouldn't have been captured if we were gadget free. Also, ever since we've had kids we stopped taking pictures of my hubby and I...that needs to change.

Leavenworth Family Fun

Last week we went to Leavenworth for an overnight getaway that was a blast! Leavenworth is a small mountain town that has remade itself into a German/Bavarian village and it's so beautiful and refreshing. Here are a few pictures from our trip. Right in town there is a perfect sledding hill for small kids, so we brought our sled and had a blast with our kids on that ice..I mean..uh...snow hill. It was a blessing to get away and just have 24 hours to relax as life is pretty stressful at our house right now. Keep praying for a job for my hubby!
