Back Home again…
Well we are finally back at home from our LONG Christmas break. We spent a few days in WV and a few in PA and what seemed like a few on the road, although it was only half a day (13 hours). We got a chance to start a few traditions for our families Christmas,…

Merry Christmas (Spoilers Enclosed)
Heather and I have been thinking and talking a lot about how we will be handling Christmas in our house.

Hidden in My Heart
I have decided to challenge myself to memorize God’s word, not in verses and words but an entire book of the Bible. I don’t do well trying to remember the ‘addresses’ of verses when I have memorized them in the past and I believe it better to know the entire context of what you are…
