Welcome....Here's a glimpse of our happenings!

The verses that have REALLY spoken to me (Sarah) lately....



"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock." Matthew 7:24-25



Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. I Peter 5:8-9



From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. For in him we live and move and have our being. As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.' Acts 17:26-28



May the words of my mouth and the mediation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer. Psalm 19:14



So be careful to do what the Lord your God has commanded you; do not turn aside to the right or to the left. Walk in all the way that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess. Deuteronomy 5:32-33



God, our God, will take care of the hidden things but the revealed things are our business. It's up to us and our children to attend to all the terms in this Revelation. Deuteronomy 29:29 (The Message)

About the Friesen's....

All Tuckered Out....

A couple of days ago (Sunday), we had two different family gatherings, at the same time. So, we went to both of them, though we weren't able to spend very much time at either one of them. The first one was the "Friesen Christmas." This gathering would involve Marc's Dad's siblings and their kids. This year, it involved getting together in the afternoon for finger foods. Luke actually slept the entire time we were there. That could possibly be because he no longer likes to sleep during church. So, we went to this gathering with Luke on very little sleep.

Thank goodness he slept during this event, or his mood wouldn't have been very good.

Second, we went to my Grandfather's 90th birthday party. Again, because of time, we weren't able to stay very long. During this party, Luke got a bottle, had his poopy diaper changed, and rolled over a couple of times for his grandma (Yeah!).

Then, it was time to leave because we had small group at our house.....What a day!

On the way home from my grandfather's party, Luke was merely playing with his little links that he likes to play with. Then, all of a sudden, I noticed he was asleep -- with the links still in his hands. Too cute!

This picture just had to make a blog post!
