2009 through 2013

Making sure this stays active. This blog covered the years 2009-2013. After that I moved to my new blog called Pen and Ink...and maybe some paint. They overlap a bit, I think. Anyway, thanks for stopping by! Shalom!

Keeping memories alive...

It makes me nervous to leave this blog untouched for too long. Hopefully, Blogger won't disappear and my blog along with it. Anyway, this is just a post to keep things ticking along in case anyone's keeping track.

I'm doing my blogging over at Pen and Ink...and maybe some paint these days, so the story continues there. :)

Shalom!

Family memories...

Just felt the need to make a new header photo and pretty this blog up a bit. Still doing most of my posting on Pen and Ink, but this blog contains years of family history, so I don't want to lose it. Come on over for more recent news! :)

Bump...

Ha, ha! Not sure if Blogger will delete a blog if it is inactive for too long. So this is just a precautionary post. This blog contains a lot of family history, so I want to keep it here, but my main blogging activity is taking place at Pen and Ink...and maybe some paint.

See you there!

If you don't find new posts here...

please check out my "Pen and Ink...and maybe some paint" blog. It's getting a little difficult to post in both places, so I think I'll begin mixing art and family blogging on that blog. Hopefully, this one won't go anywhere! Thanks!

A Pause in Advent #1

I see the link for my Pause in Advent posts has directed you here. May I redirect you to my Pen and Ink blog, which is where I actually am posting for this. Thanks! *smile*

So long since I've posted!

These have been a long 5 months spent at the bedside of my sweet husband and best friend of 33 years. On November 19 Jesus held out his hand and beckoned, and Bob followed Him into a wonderful eternity we can only try to imagine. I'm so happy for him, that his suffering is past and is now forgotten in the joy of being in the presence of his Lord and all of those loved ones who went before him. Thank you, Jesus!

This holiday season will certainly be different than any before for those of us still here on planet Earth. We will try to create new traditions centered even more closely around the real meaning of Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Our little 2 year old granddaughter, Audrey, still doesn't know where Grandpa is. Up until now we've been able to tell her he's at the doctor. We're working on how to explain that he is with Jesus. She has kind of stopped asking, but I'm sure she'll remember eventually and I hope God will give us the right words. She and Grandpa were best buddies. Give us wisdom, Lord, please.

I am thankful for my wonderful family. All seven of our children and their families have been such a lifeline through all of this. Thank you, Lord, for taking us on through to that great reunion of believers that you've promised in Your Word! :)
