Make a video - it's fun, easy and free!
www.onetruemedia.com Thought you'd all like to meet some of the moms I do life with here. I realized that we've had a lot of fun together the last 3 years and have very few pictures to show for it. On Sept 11 I figured it would be a good idea to celebrate life and enjoy the freedom to apple pick with homeschool friends and then make apple sauce. I didn't take any pictures of the apple sauce, but I canned over 30 quarts of apple sauce, apple butter and apple pie filling. The kids are a huge help and John jumped in last week to assist with the final batch of pie filling. It turned out yummy!
My girlfriends Kim, Anna-Britt and Dawn met out at the orchard. Somehow we didn't get pictures of Dawn. We'll need to fix that next time.
On the first Saturday of the month we host a potluck BBQ for families we are close to. Of course, every month I swear I'm going to take pictures and we never do. This last month we did snag a quick pic of Molly and I together at the end of the evening. These are always such special times for the Dads and Kids to fellowship. Sharing hearts, creating community, praying for one another, that's what it's all about.
The last but not least mom in this montage is Emily. I took this shot at church camp meeting a couple of weeks ago during worship time. Her sweet boy was exhausted from a long weekend at camp and snuggled up to mom so sweetly. It's always a blessing when moms get to hear the entire sermon!!
I love these moms and all their kids. We do life together and I think we're doing it pretty darn good.
here's a quote about Hope from a book I'm currently reading that I enjoyed this morning. I had no idea just how much I was going to need these phrases today!
"Hope dares to imagine the future as a legitimate alternative to the vicious repetitions of the past. But the refusal to forgive is a toxic memory of the unforgiven past poisons the present and contaminates the future."-Brian Zahnd from his book Unconditional the Call of Jesus to Radical Forgiveness.
We had a peaceful Yom Kippur here this week, but I didn't take any pictures. We just took it easy and the boys had a huge play date for the afternoon. It was a great day!
