[ Surf a Pup ]

We had a fabulous weekend. Fab.U.Lous. We went on another family camping trip to a small bible camp only 2 hours way. Despite the bugs being horrible and the heat, those didn't even seem to matter when we were swimming the perfect temperature lake, jumping on the water trampoline, eating incredible food that came only in vast quantities, or just sitting around enjoying each others' company. The Hubs and I have been using his parents' pop-up trailer since they've upgraded a bit to a 5-wheel. For someone who only knew the world of camping in a non-waterproof tent, a pop-up trailer is the 5 star world of camping to me. No bugs. No rain. A plug in for a fan. Drawers to organize things like plates & cutlery. I love it! It's a little home away from home! And the best part is that the dog can come with us, stay in his own little kennel and is the easiest to have along.

Extreme Makeover: Minnesota Style

Most people have seen Extreme Makeover: House Edition on ABC. If you haven't seen it, chances are you are you have heard about it at some point. It's known for it's week long renovation of a family's home as it usually completed demolished, redesigned, rebuilt and lives are completely transformed.

Equipment they would never have been able to purchase on their own. However, rarely do people - as in you and me- actually get to see something as magnificent as the simple outpouring of love and generosity to a family in need right in their own backyard. Rarely do we get the opportunity to participate, whether through monetary giving or giving up som

[ Women & Relationships : Part I ]

I was asked to be on a discussion panel to be asked questions by college age ladies. My first react was, "Goodness gracious, balls of fire, no." Any thought of talking in front of a group of people makes my heart skip a beat. Add in the fact that we'd be talking about relationships and struggles and relating to men and modesty and so on. The thought of this made my palms start to sweat and I hadn't even agreed to do it yet. So, you know what I did? I agreed. Even better than that, I survived. There's a few things that I am passionate about. The first one is always, at all times, continuously pursuing being a better woman of God. I do realize how redundant that sentence is, yet that's how I see it and approach the topic of who I am in Christ. The second thing I am passionate about is helping others see the same thing. I am passionate about them seeing their potential, seeing their opportunities for growth and seeing that they should never-ever, under any circ
