Snuggle Up

For a date, Pete and I enjoyed a cozy fire during rainy weather. What fun to extend the warmth to family time. This night was our 3rd time around the fire for January. We enjoyed story time, popcorn and a crackling fire. Then joking and laughing with dad amidst the fire-lit room.

Home Theater

On this particular saturday, Aidon asked for "double family time" [morning and evening], since daddy would be at Guys-Nite-out tonight. The answer was yes &

Aidon immediately set up a "movie theater" in the bedroom.

Here's the theatre-style seating:

Lights out! and the masters of ceremonies Planet Heroes flanked the "big screen" while we watched The Show, complete with breakfast, before taking Daddy to work!

Jingle Bells, Jungle Bells!

We enjoyed the lightscape of the Jungle on Jan 1st, especially from the skyfari:

This polar bear is pretty slippery:Well, this one is standing up, but it's pretty hard to hold:

Five on Friday

1. Just enjoyed a good game of Bunco!
2. Excited for the next 8-week study of the Word that started this week.
3. I am blessed with the family and people that the Lord has planned and interwoven into my life.
4. I love the wonder, and hopeful expectation that comes with the start of a new "season" (or chapter) of life --- watching that --- not only in my life, yet also that of my family and friends around me.
5. I am moved by God's faithfulness.

On The Ranch

Josh was blessed with a unique opportunity to visit a ranch and he found joy being with the animals
riding, brushing, or feeding them...

I love this song. It reminds us that God is with us through each trial we go through. He always has been there and always will be." I'm willing to go where You want me to. God I trust you... I will follow You....I will swim in the deep because You are right next to me. You are in the eye of the storm and the calm of the sea. You're never out of reach. God, You know where I've been. You were there with me then. You were faithful before. You'll be faithful again! I'm holding your hand."

Happy New Year! from the Suggetts

This is a time when I enjoy reflecting back on
joyful memories and everyday moments.

We share our 2009 memory collage with you.

We found joy through each season that

came and went in 2009 - a blessed year!

Wishing you many blessings in 2010!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8. To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, And a time to die; A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted; A time to kill, And a time to heal; A time to break down, And a time to build up; A time to weep, And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones; A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing; A time to gain, And a time to lose; A time to keep, And a time to throw away; A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak; A time to love, And a time to hate; A time of war, And a time of peace.
