Fathers’ Day Pictures

by stephanie | July 15th, 2010 | Posted in Family Time, Holiday Fun, Life | No Comments

I finally have removed the Fathers’ Day pictures from Matt’s camera. Yes I am aware that was almost a month ago, but I don’t like to touch his camera. On Fathers’ Day we made waffles, went to my parents’ for lunch, and then napped! Here’s some pictures from our day.

Living Nativity

by stephanie | December 24th, 2009 | Posted in Ezra, Holiday Fun, Life, Noah | No Comments

Noah and Ezra (along with mom and dad) played baby Jesus this year in our church‘s Living Nativity. Poor Ez was a little fussy, but Noah loved it, the lights, animals, and music were a lot of fun. In hindsight, Mary and Joseph shouldn’t have dressed Jesus in such cute pjs, something more plain would [...]

Gift Giving

by stephanie | November 29th, 2009 | Posted in Holiday Fun, social awareness | 2 Comments

I thought I should follow-up my last post with saying that we are not against gift giving/getting. We do love to give and get thoughtful gifts. I think one of the points of advent conspiracy is to give less and give better. Right after I posted my last post, I was thrilled to read Gretchen’s [...]

The season of Advent begins tomorrow.  It is a season of anticipation of the Second Coming and celebration of the birth of Jesus.  Advent Conspiracy has served as a good reminder to me about the focus of this season, about God’s love for us and the hope that He offers.

Happy Independence Day!  We didn’t not celebrate the 4th in a traditional sense today.  The boys cannot stay up late enough for fireworks and all the people we normally would BBQ with are out of town (we weren’t ready to throw our own BBQ yet), but we still had a great day. Our 4th started [...]
