Pretty Songs

On our last visit, we were blessed with the girls singing. They have awesome parents that teach them well :-) I love these pictures of Daniel and Abby, they were watching Grace sing.

Having Fun!!!

It's never a dull moment when we visit CT. Daniel even had fun blowing up a couple of wasp nests. :-) We have lots of fun with everyone.

"Look a Dis"

I'm starting to learn Photoshop Elements. I'm just having fun with my pictures. I love this one of Abby. She was really enjoying that piece of corn. I put the original and the one I played with.

Grace was being funny and slouching in her chair :-)


Of course Abby had to copy her big sister :-)

My niece Abby says "look a dis" a lot when wanting you to see what she is doing. I can't believe how much she is growing up. We have such a fun time with them whenever we see them.

Having Fun with Cousins

Last weekend we were able to spend some time with my cousins Cal, James, Leah and Lily and my Uncle and Aunt. We played Rook, I braided the girls hair and we all had fun talking with each other. It was so good to see them.

Happy 18th Birthday

On August 26, my little brother Josiah will be turning 18. I can't believe that almost 18 years ago, we were waiting for this little trouble maker to be born. When my brothers and I went to visit him in the hospital when he was born, he SCREAMED the entire time. When mom brought him home, he SCREAMED. I could go on and on with the list of things that would make Josiah scream,:-) but I won't. They were all good times. We've had so many wonderful times together. I just love my crazy brother Josiah. We have a lot in common, which was why it was so easy for me to choose his birthday gift. Ok, so maybe it wasn't the safest gift to buy. :-)

Happy Anniversary

Happy 35th Anniversary to my wonderful parents. They are such a blessing to me. I praise the Lord everyday for their example in my life.

Surprise !!!!!!

Last week we had a surprise birthday party for one of my very good friends. I praise the Lord for providing me with wonderful christian women to fellowship with here in NH. Happy Birthday Ashley!!!!!!

Teen Cleaning and Making Your Own Pizza

Well, I had the brilliant idea of having the kids make their own pizza for a teen activity. The only problem was, I thought about it prob 4 months a go and bought the dough for the pizza. So the dough has sat in a few different freezers over the last few months and taken on the taste of each freezer. :-( GROSS. Needless to say though, it was teens I was feeding. Most of them enjoyed the pizza they made anyway and gobbled it up. The rest of us normal people with REAL taste buds in our mouths, ate watermelon and chips :-). That was the food side of this activity, for the "fun" part we had the teens work around the church for a "work day." They did an awesome job and we continue to praise the Lord for wonderful teens.

Baptism

Matthew made the decision to be baptized this past weekend.

Fun Weekend

This past weekend my mom and brothers came to visit. I was so happy to have them here. They were able to see me play softball on Saturday. Daniel and I had a softball tournament we were playing in. We ended up winning :-) But mom had to go home before our last game :-(

Mount Calvary Team

A team from Mount Calvary Baptist Church in SC came up for a week to help my Dad with VBS and Teen Challenge. What a blessing they were to him!!! We had the privilege of seeing them at my Dad's church and they visited our church in NH on Sunday night. They were so encouraging to all of us. My brother Jerid and his family came with them. It was so nice spending time with them. Since they're from SC we don't get to see them ofter.
