Alyx is Three!

Today is Alyx’s birthday. At 3:58pm, she will officially be three years old. I cannot believe how fast she is growing up! I don’t think I can even remember when you could walk and talk…. She is so big now! Not height-wise, of course! I don’t think she’s grown an inch in the last year! [...]

Well, in the midst of a busy, busy day, I gave my chinchillas away today. I feel like they will be fine and well taken care of, but it’s kind of sad. I’ve had Chalupa for probably six years and Andy for almost as long. With the new baby coming, we just didn’t have room [...]

The Wise Choice

I meant to post on this last week because it was really profound to me.
We are in a series entitled “Foolproof.” (We took a break this week to celebrate our 1st birthday as a church! Yay!) Jonathan talked about how we need to ask ourselves “What is the wise thing to do?” And we should [...]
