For The Joy of All Nations
http://forthejoyofallnations.blogspot.com/2014/06/its-june-10th.html
For The Joy of All Nations. Tuesday, June 10, 2014. It's June 10th. When I glanced at my phone this morning and saw June 10, it hit me how crazy it is that we are sitting in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, today. On June 10th of last year Patrick and Samuel and I were on a plane headed to Bratislava, Slovakia. We were calling our move "long-term." We wanted to raise our family there. But we never expected to be here in America today. In fact, by December we were back on a plane to America. My parents came to visit.

Fun Times with April & Brandon Owen: November 2010
http://aprilgurleyowen.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 15, 2010. Better Late Than Never. I realize that it is almost Thanksgiving, but I wanted to share my pumpkins from Halloween. Staying true to my Hoover roots, I had to do one with the Jolly Roger face. That joker was hard! I mean, H-A-R-D! My hands hurt for 2 days after I carved that guy. We also carved one with a funny smile and one with a ghost. Overall, they turned out cute (I thought). I was proud of my pumpkins. Those little ghosts and goblins are smart!

My Slovak Life: April 2009
http://amberinslovakia.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
And the nations will know that I am the LORD," declares the Lord God. Ezekiel 36:23. Tuesday, April 28, 2009. Today was our monthly Day with the Lord, and I was walking down Hlavna with my ipod. I was listening to worship music and praying for the thousands of people who need Jesus in this city that has become home to me. A song was playing that said, "What do I have if I don't have you, Jesus? Tuesday, April 21, 2009. Palacinky Party at the Technical University. After church on Ash Wednesday-.

Life with Kiki and Coco: September 2010
http://lifewithkikiandcoco.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 24, 2010. Last week we had a 3 month photo shoot with Parker and a great local photographer,. Parker was a perfect little model and we had so much fun! Click the below picture for a preview! Monday, September 20, 2010. The vinyl bible verse above the crib was applied loving (er, painstakingly) by Sissy and Doc. The framed print above the changing table was painted by Parker's great grandmother (my Gammie). Check out the post about the changing table/dresser here. And I spent hours in a ...

For The Joy of All Nations: He's not talking yet
http://forthejoyofallnations.blogspot.com/2012/12/hes-not-talking-yet.html
For The Joy of All Nations. Monday, December 3, 2012. He's not talking yet. I didn't think much of it at the time, but earlier this afternoon Samuel really surprised me. I've been enjoying watching him interact more with people and toys and the world around him. Sidenote: today at the grocery store, Samuel said "hi" to a woman walking by. She was so amazed and said, "Wow, he's talking at such a young age! What else can he say? Umm nothing. Sorry to disappoint you, but he's just making noise.). Next sprin...

For The Joy of All Nations. Friday, December 28, 2012. It is the night of our Dear Savior's birth (well, it was). The annual first-night-of-Encounter chicken fingers. Someone got their little mouth on this before I took it away. And she gave me some great ideas/resources. Interview with Phil Vischer, the creator of Veggie Tales. He recently made a movie called “Buck Denver Asks, ‘Why Do We Call It Christmas? Definitely worth listening to. So here are Samuel’s 3 Christmas gifts. We are on staff with Cru, ...
