So Bella’s verse for AWANA this week is “All things were made by Him…” John 1:3. The confusing part is when she says “God didn’t make everything. He didn’t make cars. People made cars.” My response was, “Yes, but God made people and he gave them the ideas and he made the stuff that they [...]

Today I was knitting a gift for a friend. Bella saw it and told me (with her head cocked to the side, her eyebrows raised and that look of sincere approval that she does), “Mom, <deep breath> you are an artist. <Dramatic pause.> You can make anything. <Nodding head.> You make the goodest stuff. <Dramatic pause.> [...]

Home again, home again, jiggety-jig.
I’m home now. This morning Brooke finished up the top of her quilt (with a tiny bit of assistance from me). We just basically hung out other than that, and I packed and such. The trip home was long, too many legs of it, I guess….but it was uneventful, which is [...]

Saturday was a glorious day! We started the day off with pedicures at the prestigious Spa Paradiso in downtown. Alleluia!! We were taken to the women’s lockers where we received robes and flip flops. We stripped most of the way down, put on the robes and sat around in the Serenity Room drinking beverages and [...]

So Friday consisted of eating, hanging out, a little knitting and going to the ROLLER DERBY! That’s right, the roller derby. It was SO awesome!!!! I have lots of pictures….and a t-shirt. We were rooting for the Toothless Annies, but the Pretty Deadlies won. I still bought a Toothless Annies t-shirt though. So awesome! You [...]

Well, we made it up here! The weather is overcast and a little drizzly and windy. Brooke’s house is very cute, as expected. Noah’s schedule is completely messed up and he’s been crying himself to sleep. We’ve already eaten chocolate cake, philly cheesesteaks, lemon bars, and some yummy rice and chicken. Oh, and we’ve already [...]
