Glimpses

Please do your chores, Katie.

Can I use daddy's old iPod and my new ear buds and listen to Christy Nockels?

Sure, as long as you do your chores well and don't stop to change the songs every 2.2 seconds.

Ok!

Katie and Owen, you took over the kitchen for a few hours. You first made a scone base in a tart pan and then topped it with a homemade cranberry sauce from Ms. Kristen. Delicious creation...sweet base and a tart topping. You hit the nail on the head, yes, I love tarts! Well done, kiddos! ...now back to cleaning up the kitchen. :)

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Christmas picnic

Kiddos, it amazes me, the weather that is...God has ordained that today the 22nd of December 2016 would be a beautiful, sunny 62 degree day in North Carolina. I'm thankful you guys can play outside, be creative and use up some energy...but it feels more like Easter then anticipating the birth of our Savior. Either way, thank you for enjoying the day the Lord has made and making me lunch!

quick trip to KS

Last week, I had the blessing of making a quick trip to KS. Though the time was short, I was thankful to especially hug my sisters neck after attending the funeral of her sweet mother in law. Eunice fought hard the terrible disease of cancer for the past two year. And God in His timing took her home this past Monday to be with Him. Now she is fully healed and I am grateful with her family she is out of pain and with her Savior!

I also was able to sneak some good snuggles (thanks, E & P) and reading time with both my nephews and see my sisters ever growing belly with twins! Jessa, it is crazy that you are carrying twins! Thankful for my trip to see my whole family (though I missed saying hi to my sister in law, Julie--so Hi now!)

Love you all!
