Gratitude


For the beauty of the earth,
For the beauty of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies,
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our grateful hymn of praise.




For the beauty of each hour
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale, and tree and flower,
Sun and moon and stars of light,
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our grateful hymn of praise.










For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth, and friends above,
Pleasures pure and undefiled,
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our grateful hymn of praise.

We can't count our blessings enough... we have too much! Happy Thanksgiving!

Hook 'em.

Well, it hasn't been the best of years for "our" team, but still it was fun.







The good thing... it's not over quite yet. Right now it's half time and the score is tied. Hook 'em-- BEAT those AGGIES!

Happy Birthday IAN!


Happy Belated Birthday Ian!

Your birthday may have been in September, but that doesn't change the fact that you are 19 or cool.

I already did a tribute to Ian earlier this year....
so I feel its a little redundant to go over the same points.

Anyway, Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Actually, Happy Birthday in august. Because that is when my mother's birthday is.... in my defense, we were really busy that weekend, marrying my brother off.

But my mom is great. Here are some things you might not know about her:


My mom is intensely creative. Give her some fabric and she will make something, sometimes, without use of a sewing machine.


My mom is kind. She has a gentle outlook on life.

My mom is really funny, especially when she is tired. She makes smiles worth having.


Happy Birthday Mom! (Belated on my blog, I know) I love you!
