I wonder what she's thinking... Not many good shots from this year's dance recital. The lighting is difficult, to say the least. But, I do like this one.

Marie, Genevieve and Lily at Old Orchard Beach, Maine. Lily had a grand time using the iPad2 as her personal camera and photo editing device. I have no idea where Ella was when this picture was taken... or Michelle or Shawn. I didn't take nearly as many photos as I...

This goes around the internet periodically, but never fails to make me giggle a bit (having owned not only dogs, but also having been responsible for cats). You do know that dogs have owners, but cats have staff, right? Excerpts from a Dog's Diary...... 8:00 am - Dog...

Auburn plays in the BCS National Championship Game tonight against the Oregon Ducks. Local plans were interrupted by an ice storm that fortunately doesn't seem as bad as it could have been. Nevertheless, we woke up this morning to a world that seemed to drip icicles....

Presents Are for Tasting

by Beth | Jan 10, 2011 | Featured, Pictures

It was Genevieve's first Christmas. The part that was celebrated in Birmingham included opening gifts over at Uncle Dan and Auntie Shawn's house. However, it seems that paper is meant to be ripped off of the gift and then tasted. Over and over again.

I'm doing battle with TwitterTools -- on one site I cannot get the blog posts to tweet. So, here I sit trying to get it to work on a different site to see what might be wrong. I'm not sure I need all this connectedness, but some folks are really into this stuff, so...

Healing
Luke 17:11-19 offers us the story where 10 lepers ask Jesus for help. All 10 are cured of leprosy as they were headed out to follow his instruction to present themselves to the priests. Only one, a Samaritan (foreigner, not a chosen person) turns back to say “Thank you.” Jesus tells this one that his […]
Of Kings and such
This Sunday the Catholic Church (at least in the US) celebrates the feast of Christ the King. Interesting how the readings for mass focus on shepherds and sheep and goats. Even the Psalm is Psalm 23 (The Lord is my shepherd.) If you want to read them yourself, look here: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/112623.cfm The Gospel is Mt […]
Reconciliation
What about this Sunday’s Gospel hit me? For reference, read below. Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 18,15-20. Jesus said to his disciples: “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won over your brother. If he […]
