On Friday Jimmy and I went on our anniversary date to the Jon Schmidt Christmas Concert. It was nice. We first went to Texas Roadhouse thanks to a gift certificate from a friend. We had the nicest waitress… really. She was so nice. She has 8 girls… 8. They sang to us. She gave us […]
I did. So – I never win anything right? Well… we were all delighted by the Thanksgiving Point membership. Rock on! And then today I got an email saying I’d won a rockin’ slap-on watch called Simpel. This is the color-combo Hannah and I decided on. Hurray for bright cheery colors. Maybe on this roll […]
With the kids out of school until the new year, we’re all going to be together in close quarters for a few weeks. The fortunate thing is that we love each other.

Tonight for FHE we put each child in charge of finding a special Christmas message to share. I directed Hannah to the PDF of The Friend online so she could scan several December issues throughout the years. We came across this … which I thought was a sweet message for children… and all of us. […]
