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....

We are Marc, Sarah, Luke, and Kate Friesen. We were married June 5, 2004. We have one son, born July 21, 2008, named Luke Andrew -- now 4 years old. We also have a daughter named Kate Christine -- born June 6, 2012. Marc is working at Cessna as a Senior Accountant, and Sarah stays home full-time with Luke. Sarah also gets to work very part-time at home for Graber Backhoe -- an excavation company AND VERY part-time at our church. We LOVE being a part of Grace Community Church here in Newton, KS. We lead a Community Life Group of other wonderful couples. Marc thoroughly enjoys long-distance running and Taekwondo. Sarah thoroughly enjoys walking -- especially when the weather is nice to take Luke and/or out in the stroller. Thanks for reading our blog!

Weekly Meal Plan and One Lone Photo of Luke....

I didn't post our meal plan last week. Marc was out of town all week; therefore, I didn't at all fix normal meals. PLUS, we were at my parents' one evening for supper, and we were at Collin and Andrea's (and Ava & Marin's) house for one evening for supper (Thanks guys)!

(And, because Marc was out of town -- that would be the reason for ALL of the random Luke photos -- photos for Marc to see of Luke while on the road).

Anyways, here goes this week....

*****

And, because I did bombard this blog with Luke photos last week, I'll keep it to one photo today. This photo was actually taken last Friday (the day Marc got home).

As you well know (if you've been reading this blog regularly), Luke REALLY likes hats -- especially Marc's hats.

While some would probably deem eating at the table with hats on inappropriate, we do let Luke do that some. HOWEVER, he is not allowed to eat with certain hats -- mainly hats that Marc still wears (we don't need them ruined with messy eating).

Luke does know this, and he obeys that rule quite well.

The compromise -- he can wear his own hats (he does have a couple) OR he can wear old visors of our's.

This particular day -- Luke chose to wear TWO visors while eating lunch.

(And, you'll notice TWO sippy cups in this picture -- that would be because Luke, almost always, insists on milk and water with his meal. Yep -- persnickity boy).

Hmm... maybe the water sippy is the chaser for the milk sippy? Ha!
