For One Another

This month has been PACKED FULL of living in community goodness!
And let me tell you, we needed it! 
We had been hibernating for months; knowing this was a "winter season" for these too-committed people to be dormant {It was coming strangely easily to us, so we knew it was God's will for a time}. But just as March ushers in Spring, so too has God been ushering in a new season in our lives.  A season where not of ourselves, but of Him, we take pleasure in the simplicity of community. 

"You have not chosen one another, but I have chosen you for one another." 
C.S. Lewis

Michael & Jeff

Uncle Pluto visiting!
Geo-cashing in Bass Lake.

Breakfast with Genevieve
Be-AWARE of ladder {0uch}! 



St. Pat's Bunko Night!
Where it IS easy being green. 

Celebrating. Longing. Hoping. Together.
At our dear friend and God-sister, Amy's memorial service
Dinner and Smore Egg-rolls with the 
Rogers, Allens, Smiths, & Otley's.
 
Get'n stuck in the snow at the Roger's Casa.
The kids were bummed ECSTATIC because they had to miss school
and play in the snow with Taylor all day.
{Taylor, you are coolawesome! 
Thank you for fashioning snow-wear for the kids from old snow-clothes and duct-tape} 
"Something about just being with you,
when I leave I feel like I've been near God, 
and that's the way it ought to be."

Hi Denise! I have never seen your blog but once you 'hopped' on over to my blog from Kristen's I could link! :) (I'm not very blog literate)! So glad to get a sneak peak at your family and life. I hear about you all the time from my dear neighbor/friend.... now if I can remember how to keep following it I'll be set! LOL!
