It’s A-Comin’

My very favoritest day of the year is coming….only FIVE days away – the day that makes me smile the most – yup! Mother’s Day. For many, many years {probably about 20} I would sew matching outfits for all of us to wear….I wanted our clothes to scream “we’re together – these kids are MINE!”…

Autumn’s Blessing

I mentioned the other day that we finally {!} found a van…we are thrilled. That the Lord had it waiting near where Tyler and Sarah lived – wow! That was the best…so the question came in…how and when should Dw go to get the van? Tyler is on leave at the moment and was more…

Mmmmm….Mmmmmm….Good

The other day the home schooling group from our church toured the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, which began here in our city.

Yesterday was an interesting day….all.day.long. It started with the privilege of being part of a panel on Parenting Tips at a local MOPS group. The kids and I had it all planned. After the MOPS meeting I was going to come pick them up and we would go to the local Rec Center. We have…

Lots to Be Thankful For….Our Trip

Thank you all for your prayers {and continued prayers} as we sort through all of this for Jubilee. We definitely have never walked this road before and truly, we haven’t a clue. On that note, it never even crossed my mind that posting yesterday about Jubilee’s medical situation would produce helpful information from you, our…

The Getaway

Our sweet friends, Steve and Sara worked behind the scenes and surprised us the other day with a getaway. Dw & I had not been away alone for just about 2 years. We had no idea how much we needed it!! There have been so many changes these last two years and we have been…
