Lego Ships




War Reenactment Photos

One rainy day, while I was still in the horrible stage of morning sickness, the boys watched
Gods and Generals and Gettysburg. I found these pictures on our camera shortly after!


In the above photo, if you look real close at the back,
you will see the parking lot filled with Hot Wheels!

Take the "Flip Flop" Test




What Your Flip Flops Say About You



You are an outdoorsy person. You feel most comfortable in nature.

Beautiful scenery and good weather always brighten up your day.

Being outside allows you to feel calm and connected to the world.

Problems don't seem so big when you realize how small you are in the scheme of things.

Your ideal warm weather place: Costa Rica

Give Me Oil...or is it Hot Sauce?

My children like the song, Give Me Oil in My Lamp and they especially like the verse about a Ford. I got to thinking, if there is a verse about a Ford, what else is there a verse for. Sometimes I think I shouldn't think! After I got to thinking, I got to Googling it and looking for more verses. I found quite a few. I also found a website that gave this song a BAD award for siding with the 10 virgins who failed to be prepared. Be warned...some of these verses are stretching it, but others are very good!

Give me oil in my lamp,
Keep it burning,
Give me oil in my lamp, I pray
Give me oil in my lamp,
Keep it burning, burning, burning,
Keep it burning til the break of day.

And I will sing Hosanna,
Sing Hosanna,
Sing Hosanna to the King of Kings,
Sing Hosanna, Sing Hosanna
Sing Hosanna to the King!.

Give Me Joy in My Heart
Keep Me Praising.....

Give Me Peace in My Heart,
Keep Me Resting....

Give Me Love in My Heart,
Keep Me Serving...

Make Me Fishers of Men,
Keep Me Seeking...

Give Me Gas in My Ford,
Keep me Trucking...

Give Me Wax for My Board,
Keep Me Surfing...

Give Me Wheels for My Skates,
Til I Roll to Heaven's Gates...

Give Me Wheaties for My Bod,
Let Me Serve the Living God...

Give Me Umption for My Gumption,
Let Me Function...

Give Me Hot Sauce for My Taco,
Help Me Witness in Morocco...

Know of any more verses?
