Pancakes and Traditions
I’ve mentioned before in this little blog that our family has some pretty set traditions when it comes to the weeks leading up do Christmas. Well, we have some pretty set traditions on Christmas day too, but that’s for later. I’ve also mentioned that due to schedules this year, our typical traditional activities moved up…

Emmanuel – God with Us
There are just some days when Father is front and center. Well, that is a pretty silly statement, isn’t it? He should be front and center every day. What I mean is, there are some days when He is just more present in the moments than other days. You can feel Him moving in the…

Trimming and Memories

What’s Your Favorite
I mentioned yesterday the plans we have for Thanksgiving. We’re making lunch for kids at Youth Haven, a shelter for abused kids and teens. Part of the process is making sure we bring food that the kids like. We make lists of what worked well last year and tweak each year. Of course, we have…

Simple Love
Part of my role at work is to help new couples with their wedding ceremonies. It’s been fun participating in this as I get to see all the different kinds of weddings. Some are very large, with black tie required, others are very simple, literally just the bride and groom and their parents. Some want…

Say I Love You – Make Breakfast
Just a fun little blog this morning. It’s my husband’s birthday and instead of taking him out for breakfast, I’m treating him to homemade. With us working outside of the home again, and our crazy schedules lately, we haven’t had an opportunity to do breakfast at home for a long time. Well, today is the…
