If you’re looking for an amazing deal, as I’ve said before, check the Goodwill Outlet. The place where dreams and nightmares are reality. We braved the crowds this weekend (you think I’m kidding? That place is like a busy day at Walmart on Crack.) in hopes of finding a bookshelf to repaint or if we [...]

Isaac Oh Isaac

In light of the fact that today Isaac is 18 months old I thought I’d share some pictures of his room and a handful of fun facts about this little ball of fire we have on our hands. All I can say is there is never a dull moment and he is ALL boy. Here’s [...]
That’s What She Said……

“I love you so much it’s like I have three blinking, shining stars in my heart just for you.” I don’t think anyone has ever told me that before. “Can you see God with your own eyes in heaven dad?” He told her you could but you have to die first. Then she said, “I [...]
The Bible is Not About You

Let’s face it we live in a world where we earn the right to be liked, loved, respected, a good job, and on and on. I meet students on campus all the time with no religious background and the majority of them will say that if there were a God (and most don’t know if [...]
Standing in a Cemetary

I mentioned that we attended a funeral recently. My cousin died; she was 41 and it was sudden and very unexpected. 41 seems very young to me and she left behind two children. Life can seem so short some days, especially when life ends too quickly, in our minds anyway. I have to admit though, [...]

I went to a some new friends this weekend with the kids for a “Friendship Party.” We met them through Jenna’s preschool and they are wonderful people. They are friends with many of their neighbors and parents of their kids school. It was a wide variety of people at the party which was quite fun. [...]
The Living Room

Well, there’s nothing like a pound of vomit to christen the brand new carpet in a house. Yep, my sweet Isaac has had a stomach bug of some sort and I’m just hoping it stops there. Luckily for me, last night I had just passed him off to Matt to change his bedding and Matt [...]
The Love/Hate Day

Let’s just be honest, some of you hate this day. I also know that some of you love it. Jenna has been saying how this is her favorite holiday and it’s the best day ever. I’m not sure why. Maybe because she gets chocolate and we decorate with red and pink, two of her favorite [...]
A Police Chase……of Sorts
Posted in Uncategorized on February 12, 2012 | 2 Comments »
We went to Prineville this weekend for a funeral (I’ll share more about that later) and after a full day we were sitting at the table with my family playing cards and enjoying each others company when I noticed a police vehicle with flashing lights outside. After a few drive by’s they started spot lighting [...]
Kindergarten Enrollment Time
Posted in Uncategorized on February 8, 2012 | 5 Comments »
The time has come to enroll Jenna for Kindergarten. Who knew this process would be such a headache. I grew up in a small town where there were no options of what school to go to. There was only one. Decision made. And it was not too far from your house (normally). After hours of [...]
