• A few weeks ago, we got decked out and attended my cousin’s wedding.  The four of us got dressed up, curled our hairs (those of us that could), put on make up (again, those of us that could), dug up our dancing shoes and had a great time. The wedding was beautiful.  The food was […]

  • When we had some down time a few weeks ago, we watched a Mr Bean movie with the kids.  For those of you that might be unfamiliar with Mr Bean, he is a British actor that stars in slapstick comedy movies. He doesn’t speak very much during the movie- he mainly grunts and verbalizes a […]

  • My kids have been back at school for 2 weeks now.  The weeks before are always filled with anticipation- and dread.  They eagerly await the email that says who their teacher will be for the year.  This year, my son started middle school, so he had a full on schedule with 8 periods and their […]

  • Here’s some honest truth from this side of the screen. I have been in a valley for a while. It’s not the scary kind, but it’s still a low point. Many of our posts last year told the story of how several of us lost our Pastor due to Covid. Our family fasted and prayed […]
