The past few weeks have been especially blessed and trying all at the same time.  This song has just captured by heart.  Can't wait for us to sing it at church. 

Weariness

Today we had some bad news.  Glen's former employer evidently is contesting his eligibility for unemployment.  THAT news didn't thrill us too much, but I know that my trust is not in man, but in God.  I had a long 55 minute conversation with my parents.  What a blessing they are in my life.  Let's see if I can get a photo from their wedding up here.

TAHDAH!  How about that?  Just been thinking about their love story.  AND realizing that I know very little about it.  THAT is a sad thing!  I'll be working harder this year to learn more and more about my parents.  I just love the black and white photos!  When we go to their house I have times where I get completely absorbed in the old photos my dad has.  He has more than SEVERAL books full of old photos.  My!  How I love photography.  Capturing a moment in history is spine tingling for me!  Some favorites of mine:

Jonathan's feet.  He used to sit like this all the time and I didn't want to forget about it.

My Dad and Anna Grace.  Love this picture!  Photography is my first choice of "careers."

Basketball and the Wii

Today was Jonathan's mini-basketball tournament to start off the basketball season.  His team won 3 of the 4 games they played!  AND he made one of the baskets.  Needless to say, he is ecstatic about it! 

I think the basketball is as good for him as it is for his parents.  We have many friends that have children that play basketball also, so we all get to visit, which is so wonderful!  Now Jonathan and Glen are playing football on the Wii.  Ahhh....the Wii.  Yes, we have a Wii.  It was one of the last wonderful things that Glen got for free for doing such a wonderful job at work.  Hmm....seems weird to ME that they had to let him go if they were willing to give him FREE stuff.  Oh, well.  Just MY opinion and my cynical nature rearing it's ugly head.
