Making Music

Practice, Practice, Practice

The Girls and I started taking piano lessons in September. We all love it, but can find it challenging at times too.

Thanks to Jenna, our piano tutor, she helps us with tempo, practice and notes.

Dad is also doing a great job with listening to the songs over and over, and still offers encouragement! He wants the twins to perform a Christmas song at church!

"Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 5:19-20"

Our Spirtual Art Project

1000 Ways To Be Full Of JOY!

I have created a new page. Click to the right to view and follow.

As one of the ways to showcase thankfulness, we decided to do a spiritual art project. As a family we are writing and illustrating a daily journal on joy and thankfulness.

The journal is inspired by the book 1000 Gifts, my Bible study, and my life verse. (Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18) It begins with the first 6 entries and leaves only 994 left to go! We hope it brings you joy and glorifies Our Father in Heaven.

ENJOY! :)

SMORES, SMILES AND STARGAZING

Sticky silliness with smores!

Jade is on clean-up duty!

After 5 years

I'm back... from bringing up babies and toddlers to building up youth. Yes, I said YOUTH! I almost can't believe it myself! The twins Micaiah and Makinley are 8 and in the second grade. Jentsyn is 5 and in her last year of pre-school.

Back to school
