I'm reading the book, 'Finding God in Quiet Places' by F LaGard Smith. He has some great thoughts on spiritual things. I may not agree with him on all of his theology, but, I'm really enjoying the book. When I'm finished, I've also got his book, 'Finding God in Holy Places'. Have any of you read these books?

This Saturday we're going to her house for a singing. I"m looking forward to it. : )

The weather is getting nicer and we're enjoying it. Dennis and I are going to try and start walking in the mornings again. I really didn't want to start when it's below 30 degrees! Brrr! But, it's starting to warm up some!
We are also going to try and start riding our bikes on the same path we walk. I'll look forward to that!

Everyone have a great week-end. I fly to South Carolina next week to visit my daughter, Elizabeth! Can't wait!

Baby Abraham



My son, Chris, and his beautiful family!

Abraham was born this morning. He was 8 lbs 0 oz!

I've been teaching the children's class on Sunday morning and teaching the song, "Once there were 3 wandring Jews'. I just realized I could use this tune and sing,
'Once there were 3 grandchildren!'
First one's name is Mer-e-dith
Second one's name is The-o-dore
Third one's name is A-bra-ham!
They all lived in Rhode I-a-land!!!

Being a Grammie makes me sooooo silly!!!
Have a great day!!

I know that February is a short month, but, it really flew! Today the weather was beautiful! It hit 50 degrees and the sun was nice and warm. I didn't even mind when the clouds rolled in! : )
Dennis and I have built 4 raised garden boxes. Two last week-end and two today. It will be the first time in about 5 years that we've grown our own veggies! Well, last year we attempted to grow a couple things in pots. Didn't do too well, though.
We found a great book down at Home Depot called "Gardening Month-by-Month in Idaho". There are different sections for lawns, trees and shrubs, veggies, flowers and water gardens. There is even a section to tell you when to start sowing your seeds indoors and when to transplant them outdoors. It's a great book for us! I'm sure that there are books for different states!

Our vinyl windows are almost all in. There are two kitchen windows left. We forgot to order one and then when we did, the order was wrong. Luckily, it was their fault and they saw their mistake and even admitted to it! That was nice. But, now our friend, Chris, is going on an awesome elk capture. He gets to photograph the capture! It's sounds pretty exciting! So, we'll have to wait for him to get back before things get finished.

Please keep my dil, Courtney in your prayers. She's expecting their 3rd baby soon! We can't wait for the blessed news!
Also, my son, David, he just had his wisdom teeth out. He's doing ok now, since he quit taking the pain medicine! The vicodin was making him get sick to his stomach and vomitting.

Have a blessed Lord's Day tomorrow!
In Him,
Sharon

Today was a lot of fun at the Valentines Tea! I loved being with my sisters in Christ! I'm looking forward to spending more time with brethren tomorrow. First, worship! What a blessing it is to serve God with a wonderful Christian family.
Second- a Super Bowl party! I'm fixing Jambalaya for the potluck. Can you guess who I'm rooting for?!!!
I was going to post pictures from the tea, but, the file size is too big. Something new to learn about!!!
