To .... I'm Making Dinner, Let's Blog Too -

I'm chopping peppers & cooking meat.
Regan is at the table practicing the alphabet doing a dot to dot.
'what comes next, mom? after Quuuu?' said with the /U/ part of q long & drawn out

The boys are on their way home from baseball practice.
We went to a funeral this morning.
The little girls had a Valentine party with little friends.

It was overcast today.
Rex was off so he could attend the funeral.
We sat & listened to the testimony of a man who did extraordinary things for Jesus, in the most humblest of ways.

It's been a busy day.
And I'm going out again tonight.
So in the middle of all that, we post.

Welcome to a phone dump :)

When our table is all stretched out and every seat around it is full & she has to share the end with her daddy so there is room, I like that.
