1 Chronicles 16:34
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.
I must start this post by thanking God, who lovingly answered our prayers years ago on what school we should send our kids to. Of all the wonderful places our children could have gone to school, I am so thankful that God guided us to TCA.
We feel so blessed [...]

From a very early age Gillian has loved clothing & fashion. She loves to create outfits with scraps of fabric & ribbons, my blouses, skirts or anything that catches her eye. I still remember her coming down stairs in many a cute outfits with her princess shoes on and a boa around her neck.

Psalm 73
When I get discouraged with humanity and witness so much injustice in the world we reside in temporarily, I am grateful to have this nugget of eternal encouragement. A precious note from God, reminding us to hold steadfast to our faith and belief for one day, justice will be served.
God Is My Strength and Portion Forever
A Psalm of Asaph.

Paintings from the Heart
I have always wanted to try this and I was so thankful that it worked out over Christmas break. Gillian and I had a girls day out with good friends. It was just so much fun and relaxing, I cannot wait to go back and paint another canvas.
I was so impressed with the girls, they just jumped right in without any inhibitions. The entire exper [...]
Day 890
Tonight, on our 890th day of our reading streak, we completed another book. We just finished a book by Sharon Creech, called Walk Two Moons, a Newbery Medal winner.
We discovered Sharon Creech, when our dear Aunt Frances sent us a box of her favorite books that she has collected over the years. Aunt Frances has always shared our love for ad [...]
Christmas Letter
We brought back our Christmas letter, I have always loved the letters that Kip writes. I am so thankful that he took the time to write one this year.
Merry Christmas. Sorry it’s been a few years since we’ve done one of these, but here we go.
As most of you know, in late June, a wildfire in Waldo Canyon destroyed several homes in Colorado Spri [...]
A Year in Review
I am so grateful for so many of my blogger friends, I love to read and catch up on their lives. I love how we can still influence each other even though we are miles apart. A few of them have inspired me to do a year in review. However, since it would take too long to write it out, assuming my brain could remember everything, I figured pickin [...]
Mo’s First Christmas
I have to admit, I was a little nervous when we put up our tree. I didn’t know what to expect with “Kitty, the cat”. He was an amazingly good cat! All he did was sleep under the tree, he loved it under there.
I know we will never get as lucky was we did if we were to ever get another cat. This cat, is so well behaved, I jus [...]
Crimpus Fruit Loop’s Visit
This year our little elf friend, stepped it up quite a bit. He got into some pretty silly situations and really entertained us. Crimpus apparently was caught off guard with our newest addition to our family, Smokey. It appears that maybe Smokey tried to keep the elf in line and thus the reason they taunted him!!! We actually miss the little [...]
