Things to Think About


Looking back over 2006, can you answer these questions?

1. What was the best thing that happened this year?

2. What was the hardest/most difficult thing that happened this year?

3. What was the greatest lesson that you learned this year?

We talked about these questions in our Sunday School class today and I was humbled to realize all that God has done for us this year. God has continually taken great care of us and even though I often didn't understand why things were happening to now look back I can see His plan in it all. Amazing!! I encourage you to think about your own life and answer these questions. You might just be blown away!

Merry Christmas!

I hope all of you had a wonderful day celebrating the birth of Jesus. We enjoyed laughter, family and delicious food today. It's so nice to have a day to reflect on what God has done in my life and all the wonderful people that He has filled my life with. Thank you to each of you who have had such a huge impact on who I am today. May you have a wonderful holiday!

Scrub A Dub Dub






Last night husband and I decide that Rome needs a bath badly. After practically picking him up to get him in there (no easy feat because he instantly turns into stiff dead weight), we start the washing process. Rome is ok, but not really loving it. After a couple minutes go by with husband and I working on him, he decides to sit down. We think, "Ok, well at least he's not scared anymore" and we continue to wash. As we're scrubbing, his front feet start to slowly slide forward, but I'm not worried because I've never known a dog to actually lay down in the bath tub, especially while two people are cleaning him. Well, Rome is the exception. He lays all the way down and looks at us like "What? It's so nice is here and you guys are petting me. I love this!" I had to grab the camera and capture this. He just looks like he is in heaven, doesn't he? Crazy dog! He loved the bubbles too!

Baby Belly


I just wanted to show everyone who hasn't seen me lately how big the baby (aka my belly) is getting. I can't wait to see the little guy! I was looking at baby clothes today and was thinking, "I'm going to be dressing him soon." It was a little scary, but we're so excited!! Thanks everyone for your continued prayers and support. We couldn't do it without you!

"Oh, What A Beautiful Morning"

I woke up this morning and looked out the window and this is what I saw...

I grabbed my camera and our dog and went outside to explore...

I captured God's creation on "film" and just had to post it for all of you to see.
