Peacemaking is my preaching jam
I preach at my church sometimes – this last Sunday, given the upcoming holidays and possible holiday “drama”, I was really burdened to talk about Peacemaking. If you missed it give it a listen. (it’s the recording from the early service, I think I was more confident the second time around) Listen To Sunday’s Sermon: [...]
Event Recap-Columbus Day is for Scavenger Hunting
Our youth group kids are hilarious – a couple weeks ago we had (for Columbus day) a Video Scavenger Hunt around Huntington Village. It seemed like an appropriate way of honoring a famous explorer. I’m really thankful to the leaders, especially EmLam who made it all happen – but enjoy these – our kids are [...]
Long Island Water (beaches/baths & Baby)
The upside of living on and Island is that it’s surrounded by water. (there’s a quotable) We’ve had a lot of fun taking Colette to the Fire Island Light House – (several times actually). Last week we wanted to take her again but Field 5 of Robert Moses was closed from the hurricane damage – so we [...]
Everyday adventures – Colette around the house and around Brooklyn
So we’ve discovered that if you have a dog and a baby that both enjoy constant attention, there’s a way of putting that to your advantage. (also when the dog is pretty odd looking it helps). Ashley took some pictures of Colette around the back yard – she is a cutie. – always looking around [...]
Colette visits Wildlife & Ecology Center
Having a baby is a ticket to new and different adventures. – Some of them are scary (I do sometimes sent pix of poop bombs to teenage guys for kicks) some of them are adorable (like watching a line form at Panara of older women who want to see the baby’s feet) and some are just normal [...]
Summer Highlights… Above Gray Skies
We (finally?) had a backyard concert at our house a couple Sunday nights ago – we were really happy to host the band Above Gray Skies – for a night of friends, food and great music and worship. The band was really great – perfect for an outdoor feel. They were a lot of fun [...]
Colette Life Tour Weeks 5-6 :-)
Still almost a week behind in posting pictures – but this was an eventful week. The Sutter family came to visit from York. We visited Northport Village, Caumsett Park (again) and Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park
Colette’s Third Week
So we all made it three weeks now – here are some new pictures. The weather on Long Island has been amazing this week giving us a change to explore the Village (and almost run into the lead singer from AC/DC) and Caumsett Park (I love that place!), and spend some time Melissa, Jamie, and Noah. It’s [...]
Colette’s fourth day (Monday)
Mondays are nice at our house. After her first night home (not a ton of sleep), Colette spend her first day getting to know the surroundings and animals, furniture, routine (hopefully?) and people who are a part of our home. Also she learned that she has to play the piano… it’s grand.
