No nap catches up with her!

Hours before her normal bedtime and she has crashed on the floor, right after a bowl of ice cream!

New toy for the family!

We got a Flip for Christmas! Here is my first video post...the princess playing and Grandma and Katherine making cookies.

In January we will be moving. Currently we are about 3 1/2 hours away from James' parents. After the move we will be more than 10. So, we will see them much less frequently. My hope is to use the Flip to post videos fairly frequently so they can see the kids. I hope this works out well!

Merry Christmas...Eve

I am sitting here, getting ready to bake a couple pies for our Christmas dinner tonight and marveling at how good God is. My mother and brother are here to share the season with us. My family is safe and in good health. My kids are aglow with the excitement of the season. We are blessed with truly amazing friends. Even in this terrible economy we have so much to be thankful for. I am blessed well beyond what I deserve due to the grace of God.

Prayers, Please

I know it has been forever since my last post - more on why later. Right now I just want to ask for your prayers. Two days ago a member of our church fell to her death during the first performance of our Christmas show.

Please pray for her family, her friends, our church community and our church leaders. We are shocked and saddened by Keri's untimely and tragic passing. When I've processed more, I'll post more about the amazing show she was a castmember of.
