What?…wear orange…get free Whataburger! What do you know…we’ll be there!

We were going to be out of town for “National Cow Apreesheashun Day” at Chick-fil-A. Anyone who knows us, knows that we are big fans of Chick-fil-A (See other blogs for more proof). On the second Friday in July, Chick-fil-A gives you a free full meal for dressing like a fool full cow, or a [...]

The summer provides me with more time to blog, as we only do school for half of a day. So, I thought I’d go back and blog about a few things that I missed in the busyness of the end of the school year. Back in March, my sweet husband turned the big 40! We [...]

“The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.”        Isaiah 40:8 Earlier…back on January 5, we attempted to read through the Bible, as a family, for 90 days. Well, it took us 100 days, but by God’s grace…we did it, and it was such a blessing to our [...]

One of my favorite memories of growing up in my home was playing games together. We just returned from a lovely Thanksgiving with my parents and brother, and we still enjoy playing games together! I have found most of my games at thrift stores, book swaps, etc. One year for Christmas, our family decided to [...]

A few days ago, Bradley had a problem. It was a seven-year-old type of a problem, but it can probably be considered an age-old problem. He had some birthday money that he hadn’t spent yet, and he asked me what he should do with it. Well, I was just recovering from 102 fever, and I [...]

A friend sent me an e-mail that I thought I would share with any other Whataburger-loving person out there. It mentioned if you dress up in orange from head to toe you will get a free Whataburger on Nov. 10 from 5-8 p.m. I said, “What?” She called them, and was informed that a UT [...]

One of our family Easter or Resurrection Day traditions involves making “Resurrection Cookies” the night before Easter. I first heard of this idea through an e-mail I received when Paige was three (about 12 years ago). So, that is when we started this yummy, and meaningful tradition. There were a few times we stayed up [...]

One of our all-time favorite games to play is the Cup Game. I learned this when I was in high school, and had a blast playing with my sisters and brother. Bc and I had the privilege of seeing Rich Mullins perform this in concert to his song: “Screen Door on a Submarine”. Needless to [...]

Today is “Timothy Day” in our house. Last year, we were doing a unit on heroes. We decided to honor one of our special heroes by remembering him and praying for his family every year on February 2nd. On this day, two years ago, he was promoted. He saw His Savior, Jesus Christ, face to [...]
