Celebrate Recovery Boise
I helped set up for the Celebrate Recovery gang a little this week. What an amazing group we have. The people who help feed and pastor each other at Celebrate Recovery have hearts that are full of love and empathy and are so nice to be around. It’s great to see what God is doing…

The Cake Baker Strikes Again
Becky worked her magic once again and made a wonderful cake for Travis’ 3rd birthday party. This one was a little more simple than some of the past but it was exactly what Travis wanted and it tasted amazing, as always.

New Years Weekend With Friends
For New Years and to celebrate my friend Greg’s birthday, we joined 2 other couples and their kids at Greg’s cabin in Smith’s Ferry this weekend. We shared a bunch of good food and drinks, fun games, and even a little sledding in the small bit of snow on the ground. Part of the plans…

My daughter is 4 years old. This year at the church Awana program, she was able to purchase some Christmas gifts with the points she earned by memorizing Bible verses. For me, she chose this lovely cross. The verse on it is God breathed as is all the Bible, but suddenly, it means just a…

1 John 4:10 By Memory
in Family-
Isaiah 40:8 The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever. We try to teach our kids a lot of good things. Some useful, some not. As a child I memorized Bible verses in church. It makes me a little sad to say that many of the references are…

Memorial For George “Art” Cushing
My grandpa lived a long and amazing life. While the pain of knowing I’m not going to see him again in this life is just, excruciating, it is so much fun looking back on what an amazing man he was. Born in 1925, he saw a lot of change in his lifetime. He served in…

A Visit To JumpTime With The Kids
My Aunt Marilyn called this afternoon and asked if we’d like to bring the kids to play at JumpTime with my cousin’s boy Colton. Having a day free of plans, we were happy to go along for some rowdy playtime. This was our first time to JumpTime but the idea is pretty similar to Bounce or…

Running Sound For The Drive
A friend called me up last week and asked if I would run the mix for the Sunday evening services for The Drive Church for 2 weeks. Despite my relatively busy schedule, I was happy to pitch in a little time. Any time there’s a bunch of people rockin’ out in joyful noise, I’m there…

A Drive To The Desert
Becky joined a group of Christian ladies known as Keepers of the Home this last weekend for a retreat in McCall. While she was gone it was just me and the kids for the whole day on Saturday so I thought a nice drive would be fun. Elizabeth had earlier in the week expressed an…

Izabel’s Birthday Party
We had a nice time at the Cornwall’s place on Saturday for a great birthday girl. Fun was had by all so I thought I’d share the video clips I took of the Pinata bashing. Here they are in all their unedited glory.

Batman’s Candy Rescue
Travis and Elizabeth had their first real trip Trick-or-Treating on Monday. I wondered how they would fare in the late night with the creatures and creepies roaming the neighborhoods. Once again, my concern was unfounded. Elizabeth was adorable and unstoppable as Supergirl and kept a great attitude despite a small tripping incident that left a…

On Golden Pond
I found a few fun pictures this morning around the Hewlett Packard site. The last one here is an old bicycle I saw out at my Grandpa’s place. For spontaneous shots, I thought these turned out nice.
