11 years ago today I said two words that changed my life. Aside from asking Jesus into my heart upteen years ago, I made the wisest decision of my life.
The two simple words: I DO!

Here are all eight of my parents’ grandchildren. My sister-in-law and I made a decision early on that we would not attempt a professional photo of all 8 this year. The idea had disaster written all over it.

This is what we got. As my SIL [...]

Our five year old just expressed all of our feelings quite adequately. As she was looking at the picture of the van she exclaimed, ”Oh, Humpty Dumpty, can you ever come back together again?”

I am sitting here tonight pondering a few things.
