Promise of a Lifetime

Posted in Christian Life

Promise of a Lifetime by Kutless I have fallen to my knees As I sing a lullaby of pain I’m feeling broken in my melody As I sing to help the tears go away Then I remember the pledge You made to me I know You’re always there To hear my every prayer inside I’m clinging to The promise of a lifetime I hear the words You say To never walk away from me and leave behind The promise of a lifetime Will You help me fall apart Pick me up, take me in Your arms Find my way back…

Home Again, Home Again…

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

Coming home from a camping trip is always bittersweet.  We love being out together as a family with no distractions.  It’s nice to come home, but we miss those special times. The trailer has been unloaded and put back in storage.  Our living room is full of bags to be unpacked and laundry to be done.  Tonight, we’ll relax after our journey home and tackle those things later…. Next week, I’ll post more pictures from our trip.  I’ll also share the many places we visited.  Have a wonderful evening!!

Another reason that I would caution…

Ultimate Blog Party 2010

As you may have guessed, we’re a military family.  I, Heather, am the one that does most of the blogging around here.  My husband, D, is an active duty Marine.  We’re currently stationed in Arizona, so I often write about our outdoor adventures in the desert.  We have a blast hiking, camping, exploring…  I homeschool our daughter, Munchkin.  It’s hard to believe that she’ll be…
