Happy (belated) Mother’s Day!:) This year was a little different for us. We had a nice get together at….at Chuck E Cheese! Lol. We celebrated Garrett’s birthday and I realized that Chuck E Cheese’s is not a hot destination spot for Mother’s Day! Ha ha. That worked to our advantage though, the place was all … Read more
The Sacred Sink
A World of Babies
This documentary looks fascinating (and cute)! This film follows four babies from different corners of the globe: Ponijao from Namibia, Bayarjargal from Mongolia, Mari from Japan and Hattie from San Francisco, Calif. I always marvel at this world we live in, and how we cannot choose where we are born. When we do the Radiothon … Read more
Savoring Spring
Welcome to the hectic spring season!:) It’s been very busy but I love it. The flowers are blooming, the weather is warmer (well, kind of). Baseball and soccer season are here, and that also means lots of hot dogs and ice cream! Life is good. We also had a development today I like to call … Read more
Getting There
After days of research, weeks of waiting, and several hours of hard work and hammering…our shed is almost complete!:) Thanks to my handy hubby Jim for doing such a great job. I know we could have gone the easy route and headed over to Home Depot and just picked up whatever they had, but we … Read more
Astonishing Images
Thanks to Barb in Nebraska for posting a link to these amazing snapshots from Iceland! The Boston Globe posted a slideshow worth viewing. Also interesting to see “nightmarish face” seen in a satellite image. Powerful proof of how small we are, and of God’s mighty power.

As long as you come with a mug, Starbucks will fill you up with free coffee today! Here are some other deals for the … Read more
Quick Trip!
We’re back! It’s been a whirlwind weekend with a fun, fast trip to Washington D.C.! A good friend of Jim’s invited us to the premiere of the movie “Nine Days that Changed the World“. It’s a movie about Pope John Paul II’s historic visit to Poland in 1979. I learned so much, it was very … Read more
Best Books for Boys (and Mom)!
Spring Break is winding down and we have been so blessed with fantastic weather! Until now. Lol. So, feeling the cold and the rain coming on, today we headed to the Green branch of the Akeon-Summit County Public Library. My intention was to stock up on materials for the boys, then get something for me. … Read more
“Be Not Faithless, but Believe”
**Update** Click here to hear our interview with Ray Downing about “The Real Face of Jesus”.I watched a documentary last week that rocked my world. I wish I had a more eloquent way of saying it, but I’m afraid in my near speechless state, that is the depth of what I can come up with. … Read more
Sweet Celebration
Happy Easter. What a beautiful day! Here are some quick pics from today: Home from church and already breaking out the bunnies! Notice Grant’s chocolate-filled smile.:) This one cracks me up. I was taking individual shots of the boys outside. Garrett was holding his bunny up high so Clementine wouldn’t be tempted. She stuck her … Read more
