A week ago, we concluded seven days of vacation. We headed out to Alberta to see my little brother-in-law and his wife. We brought our baby with us and got him a travel bed for toddlers. We took in the biggest mall in the world, watched some movies, played some games, and just generally enjoyed a time of rest. Sometimes, all a holiday needs to be is a change of routine.
We got that.
And somewhere along the way, this beauty of a family portrait was born…
And our gracious hosts…
Inspired by Chelsey’s pointing out that February only has 28 days, I decided that I agree with her: It’s the perfect month to pick up the blog pace. I’m behind five days already, but here we go.
Just to get myself out of the gate, I’m counting this one!
Happy Mac owner that I am, I still found this ad to be pretty funny!
There’s two NFL games on today. One is must-see TV for this guy.
Ravens VS Steelers. Top two defenses in the league. Division rivals. Nothing friendly about it. This will be a war, and I will be tuned in.
If you need me tonight, don’t call. I’ll be busy teaching my daughter what smash-mouth football looks like.
This song from Chris Tomlin’s latest album has been stuck in my ears (in a good way) the last few days…
I open my mouth and You speak for me.
You move the mountains and roll back the sea.
I will not afraid.
I will never be ashamed,
For You are with me.
You are with me.
I’ve seen enough to know,
That You’re my only hope.
I don’t want to go,
If You’re not with me.
We open our hands and You reach for us.
You are the motion of the universe.
