Graduation...

Tonight is this little boy's graduation from high school...

He will put on this cap and gown and walk across that stage and say goodbye to his childhood.
I am thrilled for him and we are looking forward to the next chapter in his life.
My heart is feeling a little achy but I am trying to ignore it.
I figure I can dwell on it later. Today is not a day for crying, but a day for being joyful and celebration!
God has great things planned for this boy.
I can't wait to watch his life play out through God's orchestration.
Once again Wes...this verse comes to mind.
Psalm 119:11
How can a young man keep his way pure?
By living according to Your word.
I seek You with all my heart;
do not let me stray from Your commands.
I have hidden your word in my heart
that I might not sin against You.
We love you little one. Blessings.

Amy,
You are right, it is a day for celebrating and for joy...but I always find it impossible at graduation time not to get a little choked up, even when they are not my own. I have not yet had my two leave the nest, but we will all have to help each get through it!

So easy it's embarrassing! Here it is: One box of Betty Crocker Red Velvet Cake mix. 1 semi sweet choc. chips 1 small Half and Half- (use half a cup) 1small carton of whipping cream 1 package of cream cheese Half cup sugar Bake cake (follow box directions), let cool and crumble. Stir together cream cheese, sugar and whipping cream with blender until smooth. Melt chocolate chips in bowl and then add half and half. Stir until smooth. Layer in trifle dish. Enjoy.  Alaska memories. Love this fat Santa above. Thrilled with how this little wreath turned out. Happy Christmas decorating! Remember: Your family probably does not care if your house looks like something out of Southern Living. They love the traditions and old ornaments and chipped Christmas mugs and plates. Our kids sure do. It is hard when we compare what we have to other people's "things" or decorations. We are all so richly blessed. I say, just don't do it. I am trying to hav

Camp Blue Haven-2012

Image
Mountains green, sparkling streams, every morning you greet me. Pine trees tall, waterfalls, blue skies canopied o'er me. May I know as I live and grow, God forsakes me never. May His love from above bless Blue Haven forever.  And what a blessing it was this summer to be back up in the cool mountains with so many people that we love.  As I reflected on this special place I thought about how big of an influence it has been on our children and our hearts.  At camp time slows down. There are so few distractions. The focus is on fellowship, enjoying God's creation and growing in knowledge of Him.  It has been a place to teach us what our life in this world should be about. It has also been a glimpse of what I think heaven will be a little like.  It has taught us to stay close to one another, to be accountable to each other and to live an out loud life for Christ. No holding back. Living it. Because of the encouragement and growth that happens here we are bett
