Well, what do ya know? Another month has gone by since my last post. Amanda is on her last couple of days of fall intersession. School starts back on Monday. We've had so much fun together! Zach's been in preschool the whole time, so she and I have had some girl time. Last night, Amanda had her first violin lesson! This will be a learning experience for both of us since I know nothing about stringed instruments. I've always been strictly woodwinds! I will be sure to keep you all updated on her progress. Bye for now.

And the "Worst Blogger" Award goes to...

Yes, it's me! Good grief. I just read one of Erin's posts saying she's the worst after 3 months. Well, honey, I've got you beat!!! I guess I really haven't had anything that I've felt is earth-shattering to blog about. Not that there is now, but I've started facebooking, and I just felt I needed to let my faithful blogger friends know that I'm still alive. Amanda's started First Grade, Zach has turned 4 and is another year closer to kindergarten! And of all times to start writing again...when I should be in bed! I think to myself, "well, this is going to last!" Well, it is off to bed for me, and I hope to not have another 4 month hiatus!

Darn Birds

I caught this Blue bird siting on the mirror of our car. Making a mess on the side of the car!!!! but apparently blue birds are very protective of there nest area. He would fly up to the mirror and attack he reflection then just sit on the mirror for alittle while and go back and do the same thing again all the while making a HUGE mess on the car I did not know that blue birds had that much in them!!!

Amazing Testimony...Take 2

Well, I think it finally works. (Thanks, Honey!) Please take some watch this video. Our God is an Awesome God, and our Susan is truely a miracle and a blessing!

The next pro baseball player

Orange County has a thing called Start Smart baseball which teach kids 3-5 years old the fundamentals of Baseball hitting,running throwing and catching. Zach did very well hitting throwing and running however he is very anti glove he would not were the glove ( I need to work on that!!) Enjoy the pic

He is Risen!!

OK. So, I know it's been almost a month since I last posted. I figure I'd better write something before I get any grief!!

I hope everyone had a great Easter. We certainly did! Pennsylvania was cold, but it was beautiful! It was so good to see family after so long.

Easter Sunday

Zach, Amanda, and my best friend's daughter, Mary

Let's not forget the real reason for Easter: Jesus! I couldn't help but sing the words to one of my favorite choir songs all day. I think these words sum it up nicely:

Alive! Alive! Alive! Hallelujah!

Alive! Praise and Glory to the Lamb!

Alive! Alive! Alive! Hallelujah!

Alive! Forever, Amen!

Amazing Testimony

On Sunday, March 9th, our friend, Susan, and her family visited our church, and Susan gave her testimony of God's faithfulness through her sickness and healing. Please take some time to visit her website to track her progress. Unfortunately, the video I took that I was hoping to post here is too big. If anyone wants, I could make a DVD of it. It's about 7 min. long, but everyone should see it.

Awards Week

Today was Awards' Day at Hillsborough Elementary. Manda was selected to receive a Terrific Kid Award from the Kiwanis Club. We're so proud!

Tuesday night was Manda's Upward Awards Celebration. For those of you who don't know, Manda played basketball this year. Upward is a Christian sports organization. Very cool!

I need to do one of those 'picture rewind' thingies, or whatever you call those blogs! So many pictures, so little time! Until next time...

This is John. A friend of mine emailed me this picture with the title Thank you God. I put a link to his web site in our favorites
