Pray for me and I will Pray for you

My heart is with those going to learn so much in Salt Lake City this week! I am praying for friends who have suffered loss this past week, who are traveling to pick up their family, who are in transition and making BIG life decisions, for those who just need to be cheered up, for those who are expecting miracles, for Christ to be glorified through it all.
My prayers are with you all! God bless you through all that God leads you through!

I am Free


I had a wonderful vacation that ended in the birthplace of our many freedoms in America - Philadelphia. I got to spend time with and remember everything I love about my husband and we did NOT run out of things to talk about like I thought we would. (That was a strange fear).

Our stay in Atlantic City was a bit scary but the ocean was awesome. We LOVED the Poconos and how beautiful the mountains were and the race track was fun to see. We loved the history we saw also.

We learned many things -


  • We need to go to bed at a reasonable hour.

  • We still enjoy being alone but really enjoy our kids.

  • We are older than we think we are.

  • WE LOVE MINNESOTA!

  • We now know how to navigate SEPTA in Philly.

  • We can not sleep in like we used.

  • We are old.

  • We missed the kids more than they missed us!

It was great! And Steve got to drive a MUSTANG all week! (The picture is bad. Sorry!)

Fly Me To the Moon

At least this how I feel about our 'honeymoon' we are going this week. We never had a first one and it is going to be just the 2 of us for 8 days! I am excited and a bit scared that we might run out of things to talk about, but then we can just talk about the kids or call them.

My in-laws and my parents are splitting the week of watching my kids and my kids are so excited!!! I kind of wish sometimes that they would miss us but it will be good for them to spend time with the kids!

We are heading out east and I will tell you all about it when we get back! Yeah!

Your Love is Amazing

I am humbled by the love that God shows people and how He uses it through people. I need to remember to realize that God can and will use me! He is so amazing!
