This is our family blog. By God's grace we are striving to live as Deuteronomy 6 commands. "you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up."

Shopping For a Christmas Tree
Last Friday we went and picked out a Christmas tree from the Houston Garden center. It is our first REAL tree in seven years, beyond the memories of my four youngest siblings. So it was quite an experience for them. Andrew and Kathlena zigzagged from tree to tree "Look at this one...what about this one...or this one...Emily, look this one's white!" Calvin missed out on the excitement because he fell asleep in the car. When he awoke there was a tree on our car's roof!
I had one of those "only in Houston" moments while Dad and J.Michael were strapping the tree to the roof. Where else other than Houston can you buy Christmas trees and palm trees in the same stop???
