Stained glass beauty

I love our little church with it's old stained glass windows. I know it's not about the building, but you have to admit there's something nice about the sun shining through these!

Why is it that the member of the family contributing the least around here gets to spend the majority of the day in MY bed!?!

OCC Shoeboxes

Every year we have a blast choosing gifts for our shoeboxes. And than we enjoy the challenge of fitting all of our choices into the box!!! I must say this year's boxes are bursting at the seams. And we're going to try a new aspect this year--helping out at our local collection center. Can't wait to pitch in!

What a fun morning! The boys had a great time painting their cars--Isaac's "wave runner" and Ian's "big cheese". Ian came in 6th place!

Pics from the zoo

So I was having a little trouble finding my pics for the last post. Ready or not, here I come!

A walk on the wild side

Today we took a field trip to the Cincinnati Zoo. Some favorites were the polar bears, penguins, bats, bonobo monkeys, giraffes, and numerous colorful birds. It's always amazing to see the variety of God's creation. We had a fun time and enjoyed the warm weather on this November day.

Where can I buy a sign like this?

My budding reader!

Ian is really an excellent reader for being in second grade. He's venturing into chapter books! And yes, that's FINALLY our new ottoman he's lying on to complete our living room--just in today, ordered August 20th!
