Weekly Song - There is Power

 I'm a pretty big Crowder fan.  I just really liked this performance of a great hymn.  It will not be for everyone - but I sure like it! 

Our weekly snapshot

 Here’s a look back at our week :

Sweet and Sassy Harley!  We love him so much. 

Easter Fun! 

On Wednesday we attended a funeral for a family friend.  We visited my dad’s spot and got lunch at our favorite Chinese place in my hometown. 

Josh and Nate’s band took some great photos last weekend. 

I got to treat myself to Panara early Friday morning while Nate had PSAT testing. 

Nate at testing. 

After testing Nate and I tried Canes Chicken.  It was “meh”. We both said we wouldn’t need to go again.  We ordered one meal and split it.  Basically we ordered everything on the menu 🤣. Chicken fingers, fries, coleslaw, and garlic bread.

Homeschool Musings

 A friend of mine recently shared this simple quote on her Facebook page.  It resonated with but so did the rest of her  own words: 

When Darryl and I decided that homeschooling was the direction we wanted to go with our boys, my heart was in a similar place - I just wanted to be able to have the biggest impact on my boys.  Not only did I want to catch all of the lightbulb moments, I wanted to be the one to shape their lives and hearts to love Jesus.  I wanted their hearts to be kind and their lives full of joy.  No, every moment has not be easy but it has been worth it!  I'm trying to enjoy these last few years of school at home - watching them learn, grow, and mature is such a blessing and I don't ever want to take that for granted! 

Weekly Song - Three Days Later

 

First, I figure out how to insert videos in Blogger again since You Tube changed the way I used to do it!  

Secondly, this is a fairly new, upbeat song that is a great reminder of the "Three Days Later" - all of the hope we have comes from the fact that Jesus rose again!

 Here’s a look back at our week :

Last Saturday Josh and Nate participated in a worship night as part of our co-op.  It was amazing . 

The rest of the week was busy but no photos! 

Weekly Menu

 It's April.  And it is Easter weekend.  I guess it is time to take down my winter shower curtain and put up the spring one. HA!  (That is one of my goals this month - aim small, right?)  

Here's the plan for this week:

Friday - Tacos

Saturday - Dinner at my Mom's.  Our weekends have been busy throughout the last month or so so it is nice to get to head to her house for dinner again! 

Sunday - It is Easter!  The plan is Ham, Cheesy Potatoes, Stuffed Mushrooms, Roasted Zucchini, and Rolls.  Plus my mom is bringing dessert! 

Monday - BBQ Cups and  Chips 

Tuesday - Ham and Scalloped Potatoes

Wednesday - Pancakes, Bacon, Sausage and Fried Potatoes (No youth group this week due to Spring Break)

Thursday - Chili with Fritos
