Well, I guess if I am going to live in South Georgia and deal with icky weather for 9 months of the year, I'm going to post pretty pictures of the thermometer and our back patio on days when it is -4 in Detroit. On the mend, we are. Well, Karol is still sick, Benedict has a runny nose, I am just a bit congested and...
We are all sick, well save for Karol. Please say a prayer for our family that we get over whatever this is.
Caecilia at the Touch Tank Our last day in Florida was a totally free day for all of us and we spent a lot of time trying to figure out what to do before heading home. We settled on the Florida Aquarium and it was a good choice! We ended up spending close to three hours there and the kids enjoyed every.single.moment...

This week Joshua attended a convention down in Clearwater Beach. He was there to promote The Melchizedek Project and we tagged along. (We are about 4 hours from Clearwater Beach, so a nice trip down to Florida, but not too far. We celebrated Margaret's sixth birthday while there. We ate lunch with one of the Sisters...

For starters, while I had morning sickness and the first trimester fog, I didn't lose much weight. My record is losing 25 lbs with Caecilia, but this time, I...
When I was younger my grandmother would make a dinner of pork roast, sauerkraut, and kanadles (sp?). The kanadles were potato dumplings. I've been wanting them for a while, but I have a fear of pork (if I is not cooked right I just cannot stomach the taste) so I've been holding off on making them. However, I had a...
As with joyful steps they sped To that lowly manger bed There to bend the knee before Him Whom Heaven and earth adore; So may we with willing feet Ever seek Thy mercy seat. Before we were married, Joshua and I would discuss how we wanted Christmas to be celebrated in our (future) family. I felt, as did he, that gift...
