Easter and Spring Break 2012

Time is tight this week and energy low, but we do not wish to wait a second longer, in posting photos from this past Easter and our recent Spring Break! 
As you will notice, some have gone through the edit program, while others have yet to be done (and are in desperate need of editing)! Our schedule simply will not allow us to edit everything the way we always have in the past right now...but, we are so thankful the Lord gave us a beautiful and meaningful Easter, both at Church and with our family! (Please excuse the photos which are raw!)
We are also grateful to have had a splendid and safe Spring Break, both at IHC in Dayton and in St. Louis, followed by a few days at the home of Greg's parents! 
This has indeed been an incredible Spring and we're looking forward to an even better Summer!

Easter and Spring Break 2012

Easter Memories

No time to blog today, but we would love to share a very brief slideshow with you! These are photos taken throughout Holy Week...once again, we were blessed, many beautiful memories made with our family! (Remember, if you right-click in the middle of the box, it will direct you to the actual photo album!) Trust you also had a wonderful Easter with those you love and we look forward to posting again, soon!

HAPPY SPRING 2012!

The wind chimes are chiming, the birds are singing and the sun is shining!!! Life is sweet!

We have a camera that is full of photos just waiting to be posted...however, we must add for those that may not be aware, a new career has begun in our household and is taking a great deal of time away from blogging, as well as making time disappear when added to school, piano, church, etc! We wouldn't trade all of this for anything, but it would be nice to be able to post new pictures and have enough time to fill you in on some of the other things that have been happening lately!

Though the photos must wait, we would like to mention how thankful we are that God has led a new Pastor to Southside, Ray and Lenae McCrary, will join us on April 15th and there is tons of excitement in the air...we're absolutely counting the days until they arrive!

The three of us are also, more than a little excited, and thankful that SPRING HAS OFFICIALLY SPRUNG! We would ask that you please keep our new career endeavors, with "Penn Place Designs", in your prayers...that God would continue to provide clients and jobs as He sees fit! He has kept us busy thus far and we are thrilled to see where He will take us from here! (You can find PPD on Facebook and we hope to have our official website up and running soon, as well!)

Happy Spring from our front porch to yours!!!!!

Fallen Right into Fall 2011

Much water has gone under the bridge since our last posts of State Fair and Labor Day happenings!

To name a few, Aly began homeschooling this Fall and is doing a splendid job thus far, we enjoyed taking her to NQC 2011 for her first "Field Trip"...the music was, as expected, wonderful and we saw many friends and laughed ourselves almost breathless! We went to Greg's parents home for our annual "BD" trip...when Aly and Whitley are able to celebrate their October birthdays, together and this year Tanner joined in on the celebration! A triple party it was! The entire Indiana side of our family gathered together for a day of country fun "down at the Farm" and thanks to "Aunt" Nodi, we had a most relaxing and filling day! Of course, we have just come through the biggest event of all...Aly's 4th Birthday!!! "AN EVENING WITH PRINCESS BELLE" went very smoothly, the girls had a ball having "Tea" together and once again our family enjoyed a delicious meal, a specially made cake for the occasion and many stories and laughs!

Rather than going into too much detail and boring you, I'll allow the slide shows I've created to tell the story of how we have quite literally, "Fallen Right into Fall 2011"! ENJOY........
