Then and Now



Social Media is great for screenshots. Facebook put a memory of Hannah up from six years ago so I took a screenshot. One of my favorite memories, Hannah riding her tiger at the Nashville Zoo and then I stole some pictures from Hannah's Instagram. One of these days, my kids are going to block me from their social media accounts....




Cleaning Up



I was cleaning up my files and totally forgot about serving at Men's Night at Church.

A fun night of food, cars, and a Word

Greg and Matthew had a blast

August 2018

And we are off! School has started, hockey practice is in full swing, colleges are being looked at....

Matthew started high school, Hannah has begun her junior year, Greg has started his evening class, drives to Nashville have commenced. September is just around the corner and we will be kicking things up another notch, I am leading a Small Group for high school girls, Matthew's travel will begin and Greg has a birthday this weekend. I am trying to catch my breath just reading this...

I may have bit off more than I can chew with the Small Group. God really laid it on my heart but not even my own daughter is interested in a book study. I will have to trust God that if just one person shows up, that is the person He wants me to love and pray over.

We did have a movie night to see Christopher Robin this month. The kids brought a buddy and we filled up most of a row. I love all things Pooh, so I had fun...still trying to figure out if I liked the movie but the Pooh characters were adorable.

Matthew and I went to Iowa for a hockey camp and was able to see my brother....tried to surprise my mom but she wasn't home until it was time to leave...so much for surprises.

A few pictures from this past month...


I was playing with the You Bible app and I thought this verse hysterical for hockey (the app somehow pics an appropriate verse for you picture, magic)


Matthew and I cruising Iowa in a BRIGHT blue Hyundai with a little Tedashii


Hannah trying on a few cars



Stolen right off Lauren's story

More of me playing with my Bible Lens (You Bible App)




This food was served in the Cedar Rapids Airport and tasted just as good as it looks....thank you, Bible Lens for ramping up my picture a few notches
