First Snow of 2011

HEAT BASKETBALL

This year for basketball, another parent and myself put a team of 8 boys together to play in the YMCA competitive league. It has been such a blast! The boys have already come so far since we started last November.

We also have a blog for our team for the friends and family who cannot make it to the games and are interested in how we are doing this season:

Happy 2011...

Logan is always good at getting a smile out of you!!

What did you get Grandpa?

It was a blessing to have Grandma Betty (Jan's mom) with us!!

Two beautiful cousins!

Everyone checking out their new stuff...

Aunt Cherith helping the girls with the fashion drawings.

Sweet boys!

Kacie bought Grandma a present with her own money. It was cute because it was a bell that actually said, "I love my Aunt". Of course Grandma thought it was the best :).

Thank you Lord for a life filled with wonderful grace!

A Praying Life--What is it?

"A praying life isn't simply a morning prayer time; it is about slipping into prayer at odd hours of the day, not because we are disciplined but because we are in touch with our own poverty of spirit, realizing that we cant even walk through a mall or our neighborhood without the help of the Spirit of Jesus." ~P. Miller
