Right around the time kids are finishing up middle school is the time when they start thinking about what it is they want to do with their lives. Finding your passion is a very different thing than finding a career or finding a job. It’s an important distinction to make for kids, adults, parents, employers…

A House and a Home
For the last, gosh, two or more years, we’ve been looking for a new house. How on earth can it take so long? Well, we are somewhat unique in the world of home buyers, although we aren’t that unique within our circle of friends, but we do have some desires in a home that others…
Three Months Out
Is it really three months out? Three months since someone cut into my head without me knowing much about it… other than I went to sleep and woke up 9 hours later. And thank goodness for that! When you try to summarize an experience like this, it’s a real challenge to get it all down…
Worry and Trust
I’ve always considered myself as a trusting person, especially when it comes to trusting to God the things that should belong to Him.

A New Post! Pre-Surgery

Five Fingers Day 2
This morning, I went out to “run” again. Took a little advice and went slowly this time. By slowly I mean, walked almost unbearably slowly. Grandma Finnigan in her Bobcat scooter would have lapped me a few times over, I’m sure. Literally, I took 10 minutes to walk to the end of my street! That…
It’s been awhile
Long time since I’ve posted, but I figured I’d go ahead and start back in again. Lots has gone on since… well… since I don’t know when. Today’s post is all about running. Christian wanted to start running back a couple of months ago, but he needed shoes. Well, yesterday during our chat on Skype…
Pictures
Everyone’s been bugging me about photos of the girls and stuff, so here are some pictures of our trip to Gatlinburg. Rosemary’s 5 months old and Piper’s 3 years old. Ashley and I are as youthful as ever… http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=200729&id=517627929&l=cf5224ba89
