While in Baton Rouge we visited the local Chuck E. Cheese. With the yucky Polar Vortex weather we were experiencing, even as far south as Baton Rouge, indoor family fun was a must. Chuck E Cheese provided such a great family fun experience for us. My daughter kept seeing the commercials on the hotel television for the RIP IT. SIP IT. WIN IT contest and could not wait to visit and try to win a Disney Cruise. We didn't win but we did get 40 more tickets to spend on prizes at the local … [Read more...]

Pain and Suffering? Where is God?
Who among us has not wondered where is God during the pain and suffering in our lives? I know that when my sister-in-law found out she had brain cancer, I wondered - "Why, God?". Or, when my other sister-in-law died too young from heart failure. I again asked God, "Why?" It is hard going through the trials in life, living a Christian walk, and then feeling like God is not with you. But He is friends, and this is exactly why Unstoppable is the a great DVD for all of us to watch. I think … [Read more...]

What is Your Favorite Bible Character?

About Seasons of Gray The … [Read more...]
Family Fun Day: Monster Jam
This weekend we went to Monster Jam at the Tacoma Dome. We hadn't ever been to a Monster Jam show before so we weren't sure what to expect. We should have done a bit of research. My #1 tip for the Monster Jam show: Bring earplugs or headphones for all members of your family! It is very loud. I mean loud, people. My Little Man would not wear the ear plugs that we got for free from the paramedics on site. When we went out to the vendors to purchase headphones for $20 - he wouldn't keep those on … [Read more...]
