Beautiful (but COLD) day...

Sunday was such a beautiful day!! Shad, Mary, Caleb, and Lily came over for lunch then the kids stuck around for a little while for Shad and Mary to get some things done. It was so nice out...
Not a cloud in the sky!! But it was FREEZING outside!!! So what do you do when it's so cold? You bundle up and break out the blankets!! Lily and I stayed warm under our purple blanket while Caleb played basketball...
Then we all got under and made silly face pictures...

I think Caleb wins the funniest face prize! That has to hurt his eyes!!



I had a great day with them!
Thanks, guys, for a great day!!

It's a biggie...

So, as promised, I am posting the new Bible study Sarah and I have chosen. Based on the size of the book, it doesn't look too daunting, but...


Uuumm..Yeah - it's a 36 weeker! Yes, you do see correctly - Genesis through Deuteronomy!!!! That's five books, people! They range in 27 to 50 chapters EACH!! I don't want it to sound like I'm complaining, so I'm going to stop there!

I keep telling myself "the belly of a whale, Kristy! Don't forget the belly of the whale!"

Please keep Sarah and I in your prayers! We are going to need perseverance!!

Exercise....Papa Style!

Ok, I think my dad may need some education on how this whole exercise thing is supposed to work. I mean, I'm no professional, but I think he's got it all wrong. Unless, of course, he's just trying to "maintain"....




Great job, Papa! No pain, No gain! Keep up the good work! It's comforting to know we all have someone to look to as a shining example!! ;-) We love you!!

A new start....

Hi, Everyone!

Well, Sarah and I have finished our first book Bible study. It has been eye opening, and such a blessing to actually learn to study the wonderful Word of God!

We are going to pick out a new book today, so when we do, I will post a picture of it (I finally got a digital camera) and let you know how it is going.

If anyone is interested in joining us, PLEASE feel free to contact one of us! We'd LOVE to have you. We get together on Saturday or Sunday (depending on which is better each week), and discuss what we have learned over the week. Oh, and we pray together and for each other.

It has been a great way to grow in the Lord and fortify an already fun relationship.
