A Wedding

A friend of ours, Jim Frederick, got married last night to a wonderful lady named Cherry May.

Ben was asked to be ring bearer for the event.
Kurt was one of the official witnesses.

It was a wonderful wedding. Enjoy the pics!!!!!

Psalm 16

In my quiet time lately I have been meditating on Psalm 16.
Ben and I are also working on memorizing this Psalm together in his Home School Bible class.
Join us, won't you?

It is a wonderful Psalm about God's love and faithfulness to us.
In His presence, truly, there is fullness of joy.

Psalm 16
You Will Not Abandon My Soul

1Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
2I say to the LORD, "You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you." 3As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.

4The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply; their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
or take their names on my lips.

5The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot.
6 The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

7I bless the LORD who gives me counsel;
in the night also my heart instructs me.
8 I have set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

9Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure.
10For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
or let your holy one see corruption.

11You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

An Evening At Our House

Ever wonder what we do at night? Well....probably not, but I'll give you a glimpse of this evening!!!!!

I was having fun taking pics of all the activites going on. I also took care of loose glass frames for one daughter, bandaged some bleeding cuts for another daughter, rocked babies, read to Ben...and now I'm blogging! (And yes, JAVA lessons are still in process for another hour or so!!!)
