Basketball, the Big M and Family

Hey! Exciting night of basketball last night.
We beat Alpine and will go on to play again on Sat. night.

Will played great and scored 12 points. Casey's team is in the basketball playoffs too and might play close to here on Friday. Hopefully that will work out and we will get a visit in with Brad and Debra.

Had a check up yesterday and was informed that I am going through, should I say it? Menopause. ha!!! As if I did not know that. Anyway, just a part of life right? That sweating stuff at night is the pits though.

Well, I will leave you with lots of pictures and this scripture for today. Sid sent it to me this morning. I am off for a quick walk and then it is on to the list for today. It is gorgeous outside! I am enjoying the warmer temperatures!
Whistle while you work!
Have a blessed day! Love, Amy



Every choice has eternal consequences so you need to choose wisely: "Since everything around us is going to melt away, what holy, godly lives you should be living!" (2 Peter 3:11 LB).

Christ likeness comes from making Christlike commitments.

The sunrises have be especially lovely lately.

Insane looking mascot! yikes!!

Debra! This one is for you! Mark was one of our refs! I yelled at him and he gave me a little wave and half a smile. It was good to see him!

The boy on the left on the end in street clothes was in a bad wreck coming to school last week. He flipped his car and it rolled 3 times. We are so thankful he is alive. If he had not had on his seat belt he would not be here today. His name is Jaron. He is a great basketball player. We missed him last night. He has a concussion and a broken bone in his face. His wreck made quite an impression on our boys about wearing your seat belt!


Seize the day!

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

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
