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)

*****

Marc was out of town last week; henceforth, the "weird" meal plan....In case you're wondering, he was in Columbus, Georgia.

So, Luke and I hung out here all week....We managed to fill out time despite these few weeks (right now) are kind of in "limbo." (Our summer activites have ended. Our fall activities have yet to begin).

We went out for ice cream one night....to this LOCAL CHAIN. Luke stuck to his old stand-by of chocolate ice cream. I stuck to my old stand-by of Cookies and Cream ice cream -- a flavor which NEVER lets me down.



On the morning that Marc came flew in, Luke and I went and met him at the airport. To entertain himself while waiting, Luke flew his own little airplane around (you can't see it in the "motion" shot). The ironic thing is that I took this photo right in front of the Cessna display at the airport -- the company Marc works for.



The next part of this "story," if you know Marc, will NOT surprise you.

After Marc's plane arrived (ON TIME -- YAY!), we wanted to go eat somewhere. Marc decided that he wanted to eat at Sbarro Pizza -- at THIS MALL (which is the only place it's located here in Wichita).

Sooooo, we actually went to the mall -- just to eat.

Upon walking through the parking lot into the mall, Luke quickly noticed many lawnmowers displayed outside of Sears.

For the ENTIRE time we were eating, Luke was asking and asking and asking some more to go and see the lawnmowers. Poor guy -- he REALLY had to learn patience during this meal.

But, we did take him out to see the lawnmowers after we were done eating....



Luke then wanted Marc to climb on a lawnmower too. Fortunately for me, I was able to get a good shot of my two guys!



After the lawnmowers, Marc called his boss to see if he could have the rest of the afternoon off. His gracious boss agreed; therefore, Marc was home in the afternoon with us (which ended up with ALL 3 of us taking LONG naps)....
