Our Trip

Here are some pictures of our recent getaway!

It was our first time to visit Dollywood.
This is the only time someone offered to take our picture together:

The rest of the time we had to squeeze close and take them ourselves!

I'm someone who likes my feet planted firmly on the ground.
But...ended up on the Ferris Wheel:


My husband thought that I was doing well, so we went on to the bigger rides:



I rode both of these. This was major for me! And I like my feet on the ground the best!


We enjoyed some beautiful trails:




Visited an old homestead:





Of course we walked!


And enjoyed some beautiful scenery!

    Great shots! I'm glad you had a good time. The trails look so peaceful. The rides? Not so much. I'm a sissy, LOL.

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals.

We look out for them so they can score. We...

This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel       after that time, declares the Lord.    I will put My laws in their minds       and write them on their hearts.    I will be their God,       and they will be My people.  Hebrews 8:10 On a recent field trip to a museum featuring the days gone by, we sat in an old schoolroom as the teacher introduced us to the quill pen and bottle of ink.  She cautioned us to use extreme caution using the ink and told us that if it got on our skin or clothes, it would not come off. This reminded me of this beautiful promise from Hebrews.  God told His people he would put His law in their minds and write it on their hearts.  This is a covenant which cannot be broken.  He loves us and wants us to know Him through His Word.  As we read more and more of His Word, it becomes w...
