Scott and Richard labored on the meat all morning in the cold,. While Kendra and i stayed in the warm kitchen. It was a WONDERFUL day of great family memories. And God filled moments! One more school move,.

Saturday, August 24, 2013. Everyday someone asks about our family. the size, the adaption, the struggles. So let me go ahead and clear the air. it is BIG! Our house is obnoxiously loud, we are late to everything, because we don't have enough seats. Or too many of their things start at the same time. or we cant find what they need. the list goes on.

Saturday, November 29, 2014. I am thankful for a God who loves us. And for the gift of time He continues to lavish on us! This holiday season i am focusing on not taking a moment of it for granted :). I am so thankful for the ability to travel to Guatemala to make new friends. I am so thankful for those new friends that have a piece of our hearts. I am thankful for longtime friends we have been blessed with. I am thankful for laughter around the table. I am so thankful for food on the table.

http://findingourwayhome2011.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Saturday, April 20, 2013. Finding joy in the season. It is so cool how seasons come and go. I anticipate them, i look forward to them,. I enjoy them, but then sometimes. I begrudgingly move into them. However. regardless of my response. They come and go as God wills them. Its alot like that in "life" too. Various seasons come and go. Some sad, some happy, some exciting, some boring,. Some lively, some more sedate, some loud, some quite. ALL different. yet purposed! It has been a year and a half.). But ha...
