A Taste of Asia Pacific

February 27, 2014

I think it was my mom who had this awesome idea about getting everyone at church together and feeding them food from Asia Pacific. It happened to pair well with the fact that I love to feed people! Thanks to Jim and Connie Turek, I’d already had a taste of AP from being in their […]

A Living Book

February 3, 2014

Things had just started to feel routine here and then, unexpectedly, a dear friend from church went home to be with the Lord late one Saturday afternoon. It’s been three weeks since Al left us all to be in eternity. He was only 61 and we all knew him really well as he’d been at […]

Trip to Michigan

April 8, 2013

We spent Easter Break in Michigan. Here a few moments that I managed to catch. But, truthfully, most of the good moments happened when there wasn’t a camera around, or when you’re so caught up in enjoying the moment that finding a camera would never even cross your mind. I’ll tell you this, at the […]

Catch Up: Moms, Tea, and Finishing up

May 28, 2012

For the first time at WCC, the men hosted the monthly potluck in honor of the mothers. They did all of the cooking, set up, serving, and clean up! They did a great job. And they also got a sweet goodbye cake for Payton and I! And then there was the beautiful Ladies Tea hosted […]

Falling Asleep While Reading

March 7, 2012

Well, that’s what I was doing when I decided it was time to update the blog, falling asleep that is. Our Revelation textbook just couldn’t keep my brain connected after a night of not-so-good sleep and a very busy day. I attribute the lack of sleep to my late game of futsol and the adrenaline […]

The Holidays

December 9, 2011

Out on a sunny adventure in the marsh. Payton and Hope out on a log in a swamp. Up a tree–the one with the biggest thorns of course. We all pitched in and it was a grand feast indeed! Finishing up study at The Resale Depot with the Ebels. Our first attempt at cheesecake! […]

Refunds, Rewards and Rescue

March 1, 2011

I know, I should quit with the alliterated titles, but titling blog posts usually takes me 20 minutes if my gears are sticky. I have to say, I’m excited about all I’ve been exposed to and learned in the past week or so. We had the privilege to volunteer at the Detroit Rescue Mission on […]

Fall

October 21, 2010

I know, I know. I know that I don’t update this enough! I will try to change that in the coming weeks. We’ll see! But, here is a picture of NTBI for you! Fall is in full swing and probably on its way toward winter, but I’ve been enjoying most every minute of the fiery […]

Back in the Swing of Things!

September 21, 2010

I can’t believe that September is almost over. I have barely had time to write anything more than the necessary papers and essays. We’ve started Hermeneutics 1 and Evangelism in a Postmodern World. Both of these classes are intense and exciting, challenging every area and corner of our thinking. If I had to use a […]
