Ever find that special food that reminds you of feeling loved? These puffed rice pumpkins are that food for me during Halloween time. When I was a little girl, my Grandmother’s house was my favorite house to go Trick-or-Treating at. She always seemed so pleased to see me all dressed up in my costume.

Balloons in the Snow An exploration of molecular movement Outside of my house, there is alot of snow. The temperature hasn’t gotten above freezing for several weeks. But, my husband and I spent the weekend filling hundreds of water balloons with air for our kids to play with outside. Are we crazy? Is it cold and snowy outside? Yes, but that’s …

One of my favorite parts about this evening devotional is the inclusion of sacred carols with the reading. My Christmas gift to you this year …
Our craft this week was holly berry ornaments. These ornaments are about 8 inches in width and stand out nicely on a green Christmas tree. They are covered in glitter and use old ball ornaments that need some sprucing up. We had a lot of fun making them together. Daddy said we had taken some of the ugliest ornaments he’d …
