We are at camp this week! Josh and I (and Daniel) brought four high schoolers to Camp Rock this week for a mission trip. The kids are serving as dorm leaders, helpers and VBS teachers. I am mostly supporting the high schoolers, helping where ever I can and taking care of Daniel.
It is so fun [...]

Seven year itch.
Posted in Abbie, God, Josh, little things on May 18, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Well, I don’t think it’s ever been itchy.
It’s chaffed some, but we’ve been working on it.
There has been more love than I ever imagined.
More laughter than I can remember.
Three sweet children who I can’t imagine life without.
Every year better than the last.
The little things like a smile, a kiss, or help making supper.
The big things [...]
Hand towels in the kitchen
Posted in Josh, house, kids, laughs on April 16, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I keep a hand towel hanging on the stove in the kitchen. Usually it is navy blue with white stripes. I use it every time I need to dry my hands, the table or the counter. Or wipe up a spill. So seventy-three times a day.
Today was no different in how often I needed my hand [...]
Today I’m thankful for:
The early morning snuggler who often finds her way to our bed.
The pure joy in my baby’s face when he sees me or his sisters or his daddy.
My husband cooking supper when I all did was thaw the meat.
That most of the time, the appropriate amount of TP is used.
That I can [...]
A birthday song and dance
Posted in Josh, Megan, birthday on March 9, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Meg sang Happy Birthday to Daddy several times in a row. After each song she asked him to blow out pretend candles – so watch for that. Finally she added this dance to the show. I think he liked it.

So I haven’t actually known Josh for 30 years – we met about 18 years ago at junior high church camp – but here’s 30 of my favorite things:
- He’s tall, dark and handsome. With a beard.
- He is the most patient person I know.
- He loves kids.
- He’s the father of our kids.
- He [...]
A better bathroom.
Posted in Josh, craftiness, goals, house, potty training on March 3, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Our surroundings DO make a difference. So a while back The Nester showed us how to do 10-minute room makeovers. Here you can see what other people did (on time!). And here are some good thoughts by Remodeling Guy on why the way bathrooms look matters.
And while I didn’t do anything fancy, anything that cost money or more than a [...]
The letter “me”
Posted in Josh, Megan on October 16, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Today Josh is wearing a sweatshirt with “BUFFALOES” stitched across the front in support of the Republic County schools. He was holding Megan and this exchange ensued:
Megan: What’s that?
Josh: The letter ‘u.’
Megan: The letter ‘me.’
Hmm, maybe pronouns are a bit confusing …
Grand Opening of Landmark Church!

Wow! I am overwhelmed, tired, excited and (as always) not praying as much as I should … but Landmark Church has it’s Grand Opening tomorrow!
Josh has been very busy this week with all of the last minute details that happen no matter how much preparation you do ahead of time. It looks like it’s all [...]
The Chocolate Cream Soldier
Posted in Abbie, Josh, play on July 25, 2008 | 4 Comments »
Well, Josh and I played Trivial Pursuit last night after the girls went to bed. It was fun! He won. That’s usual. I wasn’t too far behind! Also normal.
The funny part was my first try at the pink pie piece – the question was about the “sweet” name of the opera based on Arms and [...]
