Random Thoughts

Santa Claus is still on our porch. We have one of those 3 ft. light up santa’s and he has lived on our porch since a few days after Thanksgiving. Last night when Ally was leaving, she said she was wondering when we were going to unplug him and put him way? I laughed and [...]

Climbing Up The Mountain

I climbed a mountain once. We lived in Colorado at the time so atleast I was acclimated. That’s about all I had going for me, that and my shortlived sense of hope that I could actually see the world from the summit of the 14er we were climbing. We started off about 4:30 in the [...]

An Amazing Group of Women

I am part of an amazing group of women. They are my discussion group of BSF friends. Every week I am uplifted and challenged by these women. We are from different church denominations across Wichita and we each bring something unique to the group. They aren’t all like me, and I like that. They aren’t [...]

Worship at my house

I woke up feeling sick this morning. Mostly physical but I know my spirit wasn’t right either. We were unable to attend worship with our congregation today because the first of the youth minister candidates was here to interview. Our intention was to attend another local church service, but like I said…I was sick. Benny [...]

A Trip Down Memory Lane…

Tonight I had the privilege of attending a choir concert. My alma mater (York College) choir came through town and performed at our church. What a blessing! I got to visit with the director Dr. Roush and his wife Sue over dinner in our fellowship hall. I found that it’s so hard to catch up [...]

January-the month of change

Everyone’s blogging about change. It’s the new year and the time to set some goals. Since I’ve already posted mine for the year, and the chocolate one is working out just fine, (j/k) I thought I’d share a few friend’s goals. (Bloggers and otherwise) Adam wants to write, Mike wants to tackle childhood obesity and [...]
