He is such a good gift giver!


  • cali n tito's with joy (the person and the fruit of the spirit!)
  • time in athens with amy
  • fun lights strung in the trees



  • live music
  • moments that make me think and weep (and friends who understand)
  • kool-aid dyed hair (and the friends that first introduced us!)


  • kids sleeping in (after late nights)
  • cheesestraws and rice krispies and chocolate cake slyly snuck into the car
  • nick and eli working on eli's fantasy football team (the thankfulness is about the time together...and the way they coordinate with the decor more so than the football :))

  • molly & ritchie's generosity and the God-cidence that the house was available
  • ship friends that come for a visit
  • time at the infantry museum


  • big drink and even bigger popcorn
  • God's creation on display in the IMAX theatre
  • the men and women that have so selflessly served our country as soldiers


  • 2 early morning walks with ann-marie
  • oh this weather. 
  • outside + acrobatics + trampoline + green grass + picnic blanket + blue skies


  • flair pens on sale
  • goats milk soap that is a call to prayer
  • kids in cages and lion faces



  • time in the prayer room at CCC
  • listening to God's truth
  • "i forgive you, mom."  (if my kids know anything it's how to receive an apology...wish they didn't get to practice forgiveness quite so much!)
