Over the Christmas holiday we went to one of those Christmas programs that just about every church does. As I was waiting for the show to begin, I snagged one of the church bulletins to read a little bit about this church. It was a pretty typical evangelical church: dynamic worship, missional, evangelistic, emphasis on [...]

As a beginning homeschool family, Denise and I found this video amusing. We also were introduced to a very funny comedian. Check him out!

We enjoyed our visit to TN. Brian’s aunt is doing much better now after two surgeries and being diagnosed with diabetes. Rough stuff. We were really eager and glad to see her. We will continue to pray for you Aunt Tricia! We are so grateful for the Murrays for hosting this year and letting it all [...]

Here is a cute picture of the girls with Santa at our local library. They did this picture for free and emailed it to me! How nice. We have really enjoyed our local library and it’s weekly story time! I knew to dress to match since last year they wouldn’t sit near him without me [...]

A Clean Home

“When sins are confessed, it’s like picking something up that was dropped on the carpet. If a person learns to pick things up immediately, a thousand things can be dropped on the carpet, and the home will still remain clean. But if things are only picked up once every six months, the result will be [...]

I ran across a good article written by Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul. Thanks to W.H. Chellis for posting this on his website.
The War on Religion
by Rep. Ron Paul, MD
As we celebrate another Yuletide season, it’s hard not to notice that Christmas in America simply doesn’t feel the same anymore. Although an overwhelming majority [...]

Last night during family worship, our advent liturgy focused on Jesus as the Creator of all things. Molly wanted to say the prayer and thanked God for creating all sorts of family and friends, plants and animals. She ended her prayer like this: “And thank you for making the sweet things, the sour things and [...]

Molly’s day at the zoo with her Mimi and Ami (Brian’s parents). Each girl is getting a ’special’ day to go by herself with her grandparents each week. Both are really enjoying this time!

I’m pretty sure that should hold you all for pictures for now. Now, on to my wife and momma [...]
The Start of Advent
Posted in Family life, Wife's 2¢ on December 3, 2007 | No Comments »
This has to be my favorite time of year. Mostly because I get to see how our little ones have really taken in the scriptures and apply them to our month long activity The Advent Tree. While living in KY, a few ladies and I gathered items to make our very own advent tree-kid friendly. [...]
