All Things Home and Family
Lance moved into his own house last weekend. He is pretty excited. I am posting these pictures for the part of the family away from home. I hope this helps you all to see what you wanted to see. We equipped the house with lots of quick window treatments. It seemed as though God was smiling… Continue reading What’s Happening At Home Again
It is funny what you can do with a phone camera and Picasa. Now anyone can create a magazine worthy picture. Someday, Brad, when you are 35 and everything around you is too big a deal; just come back to this spot and do this again for an hour or two. All the big deals pull… Continue reading Reflections
All of our daughters are away from home just now, depending on each other as friends. Two of them are married with little ones of their own. This list is from my heart to our girls. I learned these things from watching my Skrivseth Aunties and from my own mom and her sister's… Continue reading A List For The Girls

This post will be disconnected, busy, and hardly coherent...just like our days/world/life right now. I have just spent a week in the company of my two parents traveling to Barb's funeral in Michigan... and back, also having them here at home with us till this morning. It's a long 12 hours to Newago, MI! It's… Continue reading A Week of Events
We have been reminded of that again this week. Aunt Barb went to glory after a short illness with her second bout of cancer. Elv and I dream of the future like any other couple: being out of debt, going into service for CAM, having a cabin in the woods to come home to,… Continue reading Life Is Short…
12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on love, which binds everything… Continue reading Our Summer Verses Colosians 3:12-17
