He Lives!

I had a wonderful Easter. I hope you did too! Lots of talk of Jesus and His love. What a blessed day! I have a few pics to share now, more later. (Lots of organizing/editing to be done, after house cleaning =)

Here is the cross in our sanctuary. (Blueprint action on this photo.)



I did not take this one, as I was leading the 2 and 3yr old choir that day, but I just love how the cross (same as above) makes a shadow of 2 additional crosses beside it. Always amazes me! (C. Huff took the pic, I just edited it. The drama team is performing on Palm Sunday.)



Wish I could squeeze my "brain sponge" out sometimes so I could share every tiny bit of wisdom the Lord blesses me with each day in my life, I really do.

Interview with a toddler...

Copied from my friends at my Mommy Board =)

First Day of Spring!

I am so happy to have this past winter behind us. It sure was a cold one! Today was the first time we have actually enjoyed the outdoors in a long time!



This picture is SOOC (straight out of camera - no editing, other than birdie.) Notice how wonderful blue the sky is!

Just as a reminder of how cold it was not 2 weeks ago!

The life I thought I wanted...

Just a random thought that entered my brain as my head hit the pillow late one night. Lucky for me, I got 8hrs of sleep and managed to remember my drifting thoughts.

I am a Stay At Home Mom. Certainly not where I thought I would be 10 years ago (you know that annoying little paper you have to write before you graduate.) I wanted to be successful, powerful, and rich! Two out of three aint bad at all. I have recently come to the conclusion that growing little people IS great! This IS the dream job!

You see...once upon a time, I dreamt to be...
A pilot....Does cruising around in a Minivan for hours on end count?
A doctor....No doctor has wiped more sniffly noses, kissed more boo-boos, or been on-call as much as I have.
A soldier...I battle daily between three rivaling sisters.
An interior designer...Everyday I get to choose which artwork graces my fridge.
An architect...Who builds the tallest block towers? Moi!

Those are just a few occupations I had in mind while growing up....They are not even close to the additional ones I have taken on in my life..such as..
hairstylist, chef, teacher, accountant, janitor, spiritual advisor, computer programmer, repairman, professional shopper (Hey, I really like this one!) and many, many more. Who knows how many more I will add to my resume, I'm psyched!

Feel free to comment me and add some of your dreams, or current job titles!

Thanks!

I would like to thank my friends, The Huffs, for reminding me that it has been too long since I have made an entry. They are absolutely right! I am lazy. I admit it, and to apologize, I would like to add a few entries. Okay, maybe only one or two, but at least this gets my creative juices flowing for many more!
