cool car

Saw this car today when we went shopping. Thought it was so cool. This is the sort of thing that Kyle will want to do to his car when he actually gets one. I guess first he needs to take Driver's Ed. Yeah, one of these days. Maybe when he's 17. I'm glad my kids aren't in a hurry to drive. It's so overrated.

All I Got Left Is God

Somehow when all is stripped away
it helps you see the light of day
and what this life was meant to be.
When all you got left is God
somehow it makes life complete.

This is a song Ryan just completed, so this is the first rendition of it. Some minor changes are in the works.

This is what he said about the lyrics:

"After I wrote this song, I found out that the words really seemed to fit the life of someone I know. She broke her leg, totaled her car, lost her job, and is thinking that she might lose her house, too, because she has no way to pay the bills. She unknowingly sort of pushed me to finish writing this song. If you could, please pray for her."

PANDAS LIKE YOYOS. You should, too.

rethinkyoyo's Store at Zazzle

Kyle made these really cool t-shirts for his Rethinkyoyo.com website. They are a very nice quality shirt (or hoodie or sweathshirt, etc.)

Alive Again

Ryan did Alive Again at Preakness Bible Church yesterday. Sorry I messed up the recording so much. I couldn't remember how to use the camera, so I accidently shut it off for a couple seconds in the beginning....um, not to mention all my jiggling around. hehe...

This song has great words!!
Without Christ we are in darkness, we are blind, and we are dead. Christ shatters the darkness and gives us eternal life!

sunshine is a big hug from God

We had a fabulous day. I went for a hair cut while the boys went to the orthodontist. I think I got the better deal! But we all enjoyed the wonderful sunshine!

It was a glorious "70 degrees" on our sunny deck! haha! I love seeing all the snow in the background and yet it was hot and steamy where we were sitting! Can't beat that! I think our deck must be special!

my kids

Look how much snow we still got after a bunch of warm days.
It's still up to Kyle's knees!! Hahaha... just kidding... Here's how deep it really is.
Here's a video of Ryan singing at Grace on Sunday.
Looks like a fun song.
