With you for me and me for you, We’ll muddle through… Read more »

Happy birthday Dad!

Dear Daddy, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Thanks for always helping me… …such as when I need you to drop off something I forgot at home in my car, …or when I have car trouble, …or the WiFi isn’t working, …or when I just need a stick of gum. You’re always willing to teach me something new… …like when I was little and asked what the solid and dashed lines on the road meant, …or how to vote, …or how to make banana… Read more »

So, I think these posts are basically just going to be pictures, with the captions from Instagram. Here we go…         That’s the end of February’s recap :) Until next time!

Do you remember when you were young and your parents bought a new washer or dryer or refrigerator, and you were so excited? Not because you were old enough to care about the appliances, but because it meant that you would be able to play in the box?Me too. In fact, I still would play in boxes if I could fit. A few summers ago, my friend and I had the bizarre idea to have a box themed Bible study/party for girls….
