Desert Ramble – The People!

After a week of exploring the desert southwest with 9 others and after 17 hours of driving, I am back in MN. I left the desert tired & inspired and returned to snow. Crazy. Yet, even with snow I can’t curb my enthusiasm for this past trip. While it didn’t go as planned, it took […]

Blessed NOT Busy

Every once in a while I read something, hear something or see something that really hits home. Sometimes it seems like the preacher, the writer or the speaker are speaking directly to me. This happened recently at church. I was sitting in a large congregation listening to our pastor and it felt like I had […]

I could post hundreds more. […]

My Twins’ 12th Birthday

This weekend we celebrated our twins’ 12th birthday. It’s actually tomorrow on the 6th, but we celebrated this weekend. Our weekend was filled with rain, wind, cold, cake decorating & eating, presents, food, fun, soccer, and bike riding. Phew! I am not going to write a lot but I am very proud of our two […]

Sunrise. Dirt. Friends. Coffee.  Check, check, check and check! A combination that can’t be beat. I will leave it at that. Hope you all are having a great weekend. I sure am……
