Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy,
it does not boast, it is not proud.

It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. . .


~HAPPY LOVE DAY~

ATTENTION

I have just installed a new Playlist at the bottom of the page with a few songs on it (will put more on later). I thought it might be nice for those that want to visit the blog for a few minutes and listen to music as well. It will not automatically start up (as I have heard some do not like to listen to music while browsing), so you will have to go and hit the play button for it to start up.

Enjoy this new addition to our blog!

A Weekend at Grampa & Gramma's House

Wow - what a weekend! Before Dad had his surgery to remove his bladder cancer, we knew that he would need some major resting time. We knew the WHOLE family could use a little vacation, so we headed up to Maine to visit Grampa and Gramma from Friday night to Monday afternoon. The whole weekend was not only relaxing, but amazingly fun. Here are some pictures we want to share with you from our weekend. Enjoy!




Some cross-country skiing and snow-shoeing!


Leroy waiting for dinner. Typical. ;)




Okay, so when I (Amelia) brought my camera to the table to get some pictures of our suppers, my family just laughed at me. Gramma's home-cooking is AMAZING though! Yes, it tastes just as good as it looks!





A funny story (about the picture above) in Dad's words: "Alyssa had taken the goey part off the bottom of her sweet roll and set it in the middle of her plate. Well, she had turned around and was yacking with someone else at the table, so I grabbed her roll and set it near my dish. When she turned back to her plate, she suddenly realized that her favorite part of the sticky bun was missing."
It brought on a lot of laughing. . .we have the best laughs around the dinner table. :)

We dropped over to Aunt Linda's house on Saturday to visit. Here we are with Grampa Kinney.
