1st Sunday in Advent

Lord, our God, we praise you for your Son, Jesus Christ: He is Emmanuel, the hope of all people, he is the wisdom that teaches and guides us, he is the Savior of every nation.

Lord God, let your blessing come upon us as we light the candles of this Advent wreath. May the wreath and its light be a sign of Christ's promise to bring us salvation.

We ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

Its That Time Again...

Pie Time

We baked nine pies today, and this is me being conservative. Ha! We were only going to do 6 when we started this morning, but somehow that number just kept on getting bigger.

It might be that I got distracted by all my helpers saying how they loved pie, and could we make one more please? Yeah I am sure that was it. I am not going to take the blame all by myself.

We also tried something different with the pie dough cinnamon rolls. I thought that a little butter and brown sugar would make them that much better. Not as crunchy, but Yum, Yum.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Up The Hill

There's the hill behind us, and were going to the top!

We made it! It's so high up, Sam can't bear to look.

I'm king of the hill!

Don't jump Sam! You have so much to live for!
