Farewell to Stacy

Well, our time together is coming to an end, we already had to say goodbye to Stacy, 'Captain Crunch', and that was the beginning of the end. Kristy and I tried to pull ourselves together our last few hours together, and took a walk on the beach in honor of Stacy. Here is a list of things we love about Stacy:

1. She's going to Europe.
2. She stood up to Karen.
3. She had five elevens, and got killed in phase ten, but took it all in stride. (mostly.)
4. She is 52 years old, in wii fitness age. (compared to Amy's 80)
5. She spent 100 dollars at the Gap outlet store - and inspired us all to buy the yoga pants.
6. She played beach volleyball like a pro, and had the bruise to prove it.
7. She finished up her Junior Mints in record time.
8. She jammed all her stuff in her little bitty suitcase, no problemo.
9. She looks hot in her pink shimmer lipstick, and sweet plum eyeshadow.
10. She gave me her bacon off her sandwich last night. (Thanks for dinner Nanners!)

We miss and love you Stacy!!

    I worked my way down from Wii age 58 to 36 while I was home for Christmas. Allen is still younger than me :-(

ThanksGIVEaway

This giveaway is now CLOSED. In a week we will find ourselves feasting with family and friends.  We will reflect on and share with each other the good things in life that we are grateful for.  And I think that's great, to give thanks. My heart lately though has been leaning in a slightly different direction, I've felt an emphasis on a different part of the name of next week's holiday.  My heart is filled with gratitude to people who have reached out in love, sympathy, and support when they see others in need..  Those who have voiced prayers, and kind thoughts and words on our behalf, and on behalf of people seeking comfort everywhere.  The people who have watched children, sent flowers, made meals, and done so much more to try and ease burdens.  And my thankful heart wants to GIVE back to these people, as a small way of saying Thank You. So today I present you with my ThanksGIVEaway.  You know those big fancy blogs that are sponsored by corporat...

Come Take a Tour

This is the longest post of all time, but that's because of all the pictures. So I know I shouldn't let myself get carried away since we still have the inspection to go, but... I feel like we've won half the battle, so I will show you pictures now. This backyard is one of the  main reasons I wanted this house.  It is on a corner lot, and it is really quite large.  It extends just as far off to the left.  Here you can sort of see the nice swingset we've inherited also, which Hallie will love as it has swings and a slide. This is the playhouse in the backyard.  It's about nine square feet inside, and has electrical set up and in the spring/summer you can tell it is landscaped.  My girls will be a little spoiled. This is the first thing you see when you walk in the house, aside from the stairs which you can barely see in the left corner.  It is a formal dining, but we may use it as a formal sitting room. This is the front door, with the stair...

Which One?

Look, I know I ask for your help a lot, but you guys are just so good at being helpful, and I am so bad at making decisions. I have about ten posts that I have wanted to write, but I spent a ridiculously silly amount of time on these pictures instead, and now I can't decide which is better.  That's your cue to step up and say you'd love to help, so that I can free up my brain to tell you all the other things I've been wanting to tell you. (Oreos are involved, so get excited.) What I do is I take pictures that represent the words of the song I am teaching and then I hold up the page for the line and they (hopefully) remember the words and know what to sing, until they have the song memorized. I do this because about half the kids are too young to read, or read very well.  Now you know what I do at church on Sunday. The line of the song in question that I have to teach the kids is "for all His creations of which I'm a part".  Originally I just took ...
