Idaho trip 2011

I don't know what she's setting Kaitlyn straight about. Who took this pic?

Jemima looking good in browns. She's a pretty little girl!

This is what we get with so much media available. Sad huh? The girls back their were working on the yearly calendar.

The 8 year old boys cousins. Zerrick got to have a lot of fun with Johnathon and Jasper and Laife in the snow too.

He's my boy. And acts like it too.

The kid's table for lunch.

Johnny being so kind as to listen to Zerricks tales.....

Gilbert really wasn't being mean....someone was just grumpy.

Hashing it all out before the big feast.

.
Nothing like this good ole trampoline to knock one's neck and back out of shape.


I wish I had all the pictures I actually took but silly me accidently deleted my sd card and I wasn't able to recover as many as I took. Our trip to Idaho was good for me. Kind of like I've been swimming under water for a long time and it was my one dash to the top for a breath of air. I'm home now and trying to stay near the top and not so down under so much.... gasping for breath now and then. Does one ever get past this paddling like crazy stage and get into the floating more? Let me know when I can plan for that! Thanks.

Loved the post!! Mima is just absolutely adorable but then again I'm pretty partial. :) Can't wait to get my hands on her and spoil her and Olivia over Christmas time. :) Seeing these pictures made me long for Idaho so bad, when I saw the picture of y'all hanging out in the kitchen I just had to sit and smile. I love going to your parents, I feel so at home there and love being with them.

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake. Had to have his little hand on that hat! gazing in adoration at it. Just about ready to blow those candles. He kept telling me that we couldn't sing Happy Birthday though. He's easily embarrassed! Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness  Forgiveness has bones It has a brain It uses logic  And common sense  Forgiveness goes about Finding a common ground. It shows up in common places. It happens unsuspected. Forgiveness allows one to Name the thing that happened. Forgiveness gives one a way To see it for what it was. Forgiveness provides for the  Empty spaces in conversation  And allows one to listen  And grieve outside of one’s own experience. Forgiveness walks into a situation  And remembers. But walks with peace And knows calmness. Forgiveness has an earpiece  On the heart  And a microphone  At his mouth Saying the words that Forgiveness has given him. Forgiveness doesn’t walk with fear. Forgiveness looks alone. But He’s always always  Hand in hand with gentleness and kindness. Forgiveness can stand alone though. It doesn’t melt away or dissipate  With time. Forgiveness is that little happy wren  On your shoulder  Forgiveness sings...

Let me tell you how God answers prayer

      Did I ever write on here that I am teaching school at our little church school?  I absolutely love it and find that it's been a neat way to feel useful and invest in our bubble.  But I am requiring my kids to tell stories and write them and read them.  And right now they are in a four week story writing assignment and I began to wonder what I thought I was doing requiring something of them that I am not really proficient at nor am I very knowledgable about.       So for my story to write  let me tell you a little bit about how God answers prayer.  Sometime I feel like I should write Jeanie's whole story.  But not this time.             Jeanie's been having focal seizures.  We don't know when they started.  All we know is that we were advised to go get her growing pain/ leg cramps looked into and it started the beginning of many tests of which we still aren't done with....
