It has been raining non-stop for 2 days now… It is a cool, misty rain that feels more like February than the end of May.
I am trying my hardest to be creative with our time indoors. We have played house, colored, read books, watched movies, and baked. Any other ideas?!? [...]

Hannah JOY

She is definitely living up to her name. What a JOY! We are constantly thanking God for the gift he gave us in her.
Yes, there have been times when parenting isn’t such a joy… but I am happy to report that I think the worst of the “terrible twos” is over! We do have our [...]
The Gift of Friendships

The package arrived today at lunch time. Hannah was squealing with delight, (as she always does when we get anything in the mail) and she couldn’t wait for Daddy to get home so we could all dive into our box of surprises together.
I cannot adequately express the emotions that bubbled up to the surface [...]
Uncluttered

We are enjoying living in the “uncluttered” season of life… no meetings, no set schedules, no TV.
Our evening entertainment after Hannah goes to bed consists of many things, from reading, watching our favorite DVD’s on our 5″ portable DVD player, to my knitting and Kent’s sketching. Our newest diversions have become any and every episode [...]

…More than Enough…

“All of you, is more than enough for all of me,
For every thirst and every need.
You satisfy me with your love,
All I have in you, is more than enough.”
This morning I was gently reminded about having enough.
Just a little backdrop to set the stage: it is a cool, cloudy, and rainy day here [...]
Our " Half-Birthday Princess"
Posted in Uncategorized on May 8, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Happy birthday parties are the greatest. I personally have never had one, but I love any excuse for a celebration!
The day of the party wasn’t even her half birthday, but because her grandparents were visiting, because they love to spoil her, and because they missed her actual 2nd birthday (and will most likely miss her [...]

During our 4 day trip in the Cairngorm Mountains, we decided one afternoon to make a short stop and visit the Cairngorm Reindeer Herd. We were so excited to see “Britain’s only reindeer herd,” and to experience what one had quoted as being the “…highlight of their visit to Aviemore…” (taken from the Cairngorm [...]

On April 28th I took part in the Balmoral 10K Tartan Race. The race was at Balmoral Castle which is a vacation “home” for the Queen who visits each year in August. We couldn’t have asked for a more gorgeous day! It was warm, sunny, and 60+ degrees. What fun it was to be [...]

The more visitors that come, the more fun adventures we get to have, and the more things I can find to write about!
We were blessed to have Kent’s parents come and visit this past week for 9 days. What great fun it was to be able to show them a bit of our world here, [...]
