~ Pic's of us in Nebraska visiting my sister ~

I finally get to share my pic's of when we went to Nebraska to see my sister and her family.  I have to say how thankful I am to have a good relationship  with my sister.  I had such a GREAT time !!!  We got to go see the Capital Building of Nebraska, bowling, and we saw the house that was being build by "Extreme Makeover"!  It was kinda hard to see the house b/c we weren't allowed any closer than 1/2 a block away, oh well.  And no we didn't get to see Ty.  We also got to see the some of the houses that my sister's company made.  I was soooooo impressed.  This was the first time I got to see where my sister lived for the last 14 years.  I am so glad I finally got to do it. 








Nebraska's Capital Building








Here is my sister and her son



Here is 3ds and I looking down from the top of the Capital building


1ds looking down



Just a little tired


Inside the voting room




As we were leaving the Capital Building this fellow was going in as we were coming out.  I just LOVED his shirt !  I had to let him know and he asked if he  could be in the pic too.  Well  I said of course ! (0=  I love how bold his shirt was and I pray I can be bold for the Lord  in my own way.

(His shirt said "Jesus Christ save me" )


 

In Him,

I always love when you share photos. I used to live in Omaha, Nebraska. My dad was in the military and stationed at Offutt AFB. What a hoot that man is! Isn't it wonderful to find fellowship so easily among the family of Christ?

It looks like you had a really great time!

The weather here is near freezing at night, but it gets up to the mid sixties to seventies in the afternoon. The girls still pull out capris when they play outside!

Hello there ~ I'm so sorry for being so out of touch. I haven't had a chance to visit anyone over the past few weeks. It's been crazy around here. I'm lucky to have even been able to post! I'm back in the swing this week, so I'll be better about getting over here! Your pictures have been great, and I've enjoyed looking at them. Your house is going to be wonderful when it's all done. I hope you have a great week girl.....I'll be back soon.

Nov. 27, 2006 - Moving

Posted by proudmommaof3
To answer your ?? on my blog. We will probably move around the area somewhere. We wuold like to buy a piece of property. But if we could build a house and sell it, we could probable buy some property and build a house completely debt free. The house we live in now is a "fixer-upper" and we really don't like the location.
Also, on moving and organization, I have learned that rubber maid containers are about the best thing to store things in.
Take Care!!

Your nephew looks like he could be one of your sons!

I just posted about spending the weekend with Josiah in the hospital. He was really sick, but he's much better now.

I've got to go read about your windows and doors! Dh is out paining our new living room now. They worked on the siding today too - a big storm is expected beginning tonight. Well, gotta go. Keep in touch, okay?

Thanks for your prayers for little Josiah.

We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
