The Heavenly Hotel

Hannah's class led chapel this morning and they did a great job presenting "The Heavenly Hotel" - it was a great reminder that it's not about what we do, but what Christ has already done for us!
  ...Lauren and Hannah...
(Angel at the Gate and Gloria Goodworks)
 ...Grammy Darls, Hannah, and Boppa Tom...
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

...miscellaneous fun...


The Broncos gave us some fun toward the end of the season,
but here, everyone looks a little afraid of Joshua's orange mohawk ~ hehe!
 Boppa Tom and the kids with his yummy Edible Bouquet from Grandma Kathy!
 ...and Mom, too...
 ...watching the Broncos lose to the Patriots (still smiling, though)...
...Hannah playing for the grands ~ and a special seat for Boppa Tom! 
 ...enjoying a night with Boppa Tom, Grammy Darls, and Grandma Bev...
 ...cousin fun...

Clara's War

An unbelievably story ~ the author kept this diary while living for 20 months in an underground bunker beneath their neighbor's home - but definitely a must read!  She survived and helped create the Holocaust Resource Center at Kean University.

New Year = New Piano Key Tops

‎...hilarious what gets discovered underneath piano keys ~ probably the best surprise were the GINORMOUS bobby pins that must be c. 1973 (Margie and Gail probably know something about those!) ~ also the Twin City Federal S&L fingernail file without even (gasp!) a website address :-) oh, and 7-cents, too - pennies make dollars! Thanks to Dad and Mom for having new key tops put on for Hannah!!! Can't wait for them to come back on Saturday!
