Well we tried another church this past Sunday. Online it looked quite a bit more modern than the one we attended last week. There was hope that it meant it would be a bit more modern in its thinking/preaching/attitude than the last one as well. Well, it was certainly different in a ways. It was…
Trying Out a New Church – part 1 – What to Wear and What Bible to Read
I mentioned a few weeks ago about how the church our family was attending in Idaho went pretty political from the pulpit right before the election. That rubbed “B” and I poorly and so we decided during the Thanksgiving break to take start taking a look at other churches in the area. So, I spent…
It has been a week of newness
So this week we were back in Idaho after our week in AZ for Thanksgiving. And this week has brought the cold and new experiences. This is what outside while driving has been like all week in the morning and afternoon/evening: So ice on the windscreen, but also fog. I have never experienced so much…
Time Back in AZ
This last week we ventured down to AZ to visit friends and family for the Thanksgiving holiday. The kids and I all had the week off from school (that is when they do fall break), and B was able to remote work Monday and Tuesday. We chose to drive down because of 2 reasons –…
Out of town and WordPress acting odd
Hello readers (I know all 2-5 of you). I have been really good about the every Tuesday posting, but for some reason WordPress is not playing nicely with my iPad while I am on vacation so I can’t get a proper posting done. So sorry everyone. I had something ready, ok well maybe I had…

We Bought a New Car – and Sold Another
We bought a car this last week. We have been talking about a new car for a while now. The Ford Fusion was just getting more annoying and we have never been super happy with it. It made lots of rattle noises, the repairs weren’t as easy as they are on the 4runner (or as…
October Music Listens
Sorry for the delay on this, but I do have October’s Top listens. I don’t think there are any new bands in the top 10 bands this month. I have MXPX, Relient K, Switchfoot, Five Iron, and more. I guess I am pretty known by now on the band side of things. They are in…
Pronouns and Jesus
He/Him/Sir She/Her/Madam They/Them Here in the United States of America the concept of using someone’s “preferred” pronoun is something that can be a nonissue for some and a big issue for others. I don’t know what it is like in other countries, but I know that here, depending on where you live/work/school/be active, this has…
