Sea World

The first 2 weeks of our summer was spent in Southern California. We enjoyed a sunny day at Sea World with the cousins and Grandma. Carianne was so happy to spend extra time with the penguins, and Amy hated to leave the bat rays.

Willy Wonka Clips

Ok...here's a preview of the play the girls are in. Sarah's make up looks scary, but they changed it (I'll try to get a better picture of her in here later). The clips are from Wednesday night's dress rehearsal. Amy is the understudy for Mrs. Beauregarde, Sarah is a Cook, and Carianne is an Oompa Loompa.

Our Anniversary

more in love now than way back then

Happy New Year!

"Joyful is the prospect, and if faith be in active exercise, it will yield unalloyed delight. To be with Jesus in the rest which remaineth for the people of God, is a cheering hope indeed, and to expect this glory so soon is a double bliss. Unbelief shudders at the Jordan which still rolls between us and the goodly land, but let us rest assured that we have already experienced more ills than death at its worst can cause us. Let us banish every fearful thought, and rejoice with exceeding great joy, in the prospect that this year we shall begin to be "for ever with the Lord." -C.H. Spurgeon

It could be that this is the year our Lord Jesus calls us Home!

May we be found faithfully serving Him with our whole hearts until that day!

That's a "Happy New Year!"

Summer is Officially Over

Well, the weather finally feels like summer, but all the other indicators are mking me come to grips with the fact that summer really is over. Our school year started two weeks ago and today was the opening day of soccer season! Sarah scored the winning goal in her first game with a powerhouse kick from nearly centerfield over the goalie's head.

Way to go!!!!

Fun at the Beach!
