Take me out to the ballgame.

Eating hot dogs while lying down...

may look dangerous, but really added to the leisure of the night.

We were supposed to go camping over the weekend, but the rain put an end to that. We improvised and had a cookout and the rest of the family slept in the tent. I slept in our sleep number bed. I was thinking of the baby of course.

Tomorrow is our first baseball game of the season! Am I a baseball fan? Not really. Am I a brat fan? Yes.

Book recommendation!

I'm so excited about this book. One of the character qualities I want to possess, and pass on to our girls, is to be faithful in all areas of life to God and His calling. When I saw this title and author, I knew it would be encouraging and good to pass on. The book is "Faithful Women & Their Extraordinary God" by Noel Piper. It's an easy, light, end of the day kind of read, but so encouraging to finish the race well. Hope you'll take time to check it out.

Love it or hate it?

I was wanting a little more funky and can't tell if this is a stroke of art or a stroke of Nickelodean (think Double Dare). I really can't tell. Andy loves it and I'm hating it. So... Help.

Ode to blog

I will blog consistently again... continue the mantra. I fully blame 'Wuthering Heights' and napping for the lack of motivation in this department. I'll be back soon. Sunshine is always followed by bursts of energy and inspiration, right? Oh, I sure hope so.

Easter Extravaganza

That's a nice way of putting, "You're going to be getting more pictures than you're actually interested in." We have all kinds of fun things coming up in our family. Andy turning 30, the sonogram of our next baby, our 7th anniversary and Mother's Day. Today is extra special though, and I wanted to give some time to this celebration, or as our pastor said, 'The Believer's Independence Day." I'll let the pictures do the rest of the talking.
