Music & stuff

Thank you to all those who serve, past and present, for our freedom!

Music still inspires me. Today's song is "You and I" by Michael Buble. Brings tears to my eyes. To say that I am blessed to have Peter in my life is an understatement. It is only by God's amazing grace that I have been given such a blessing.

And the same goes for my sweet Ella as well!! Her innocent, unconditional love is something I am thankful for everyday!

May 2011

May was no shortage of activities!
Peter went to camp the beginning of May to open up for the summer. He was greeted with a layer of ice on the lake!




Ella ended up with her second round of hives. We still are unsure the cause of these things, but she is a trooper. She rarely mentions her "itchies", even when she is covered head to toe!

Peter's house sold very quickly, and we were able to clean it out and close without problems! That is a huge blessing!

Peter and I also ran the Fifth Third 10K! We did very little training amidst all our other stuff going on, so our time will be easily beaten next time :) I appreciate Peter running with me the whole way. He was a great support to keep me going!

Despite Ella's hives, we were able to stop downtown to see the tulips and watch a parade during TulipTime.


The yellow "tuwips" as Ella calls them, were named Big Smile. So this is her big smile!
