Sergio’s Wife-Video

We had this crazy idea to turn our old blog posts into videos.  At first the task seemed daunting.  How were we going to find the time to film and edit?  But we were determined!

We had so much fun filming this video, and for a lot of it we just let the camera roll and pretended it wasn’t there.  Those are the best moments to capture, the pure, raw unfiltered moments.

The Mental Illness Ride

The past couple of weeks my family and I have been on a mission to declutter our homes.  The plan is to rid our lives of things we no longer use nor need.  I have made it a mission over the weekend to fill at  least four black trash bags and set them aside for a...

Turning 40

  Norah just turned 40 this week. Here are 40 things about the wonderful woman I get to call mom. 40. She is 14 years older than I am and I can feel it the older I get. 39. When she's 40 I'm 26. 38. When she turns 50 I'll be 36. I can't help but think we'll both...

The Smell of Fresh Cut Grass

The Smell of Fresh Cut Grass   In my younger days I never spend much time at peace. I can't say that I ever used or said the word without being instructed. But now with the passing of time, I am a little older and I hope a little wiser, I can see that there is...

Thankful

    Psalms 107:1 Give thanks to the Lord for he is good; his love endures forever. Lord,  I want to take this time to thank for for all that you have done for me and my family.  Thank you for all the ways you take care of our needs.  I thank you for our...

Traveling to Cancún, Mexico

Sometimes I underestimate the impact that Sergio has on others. I simply forget what a lover of people he truly is. He is a great example for me. This week I tried to follow by his example. The week started with the opportunity of travel. As always I worry about the...

Forgotten

Have you ever forgotten who you are? I have a time or two in my life and when I come back to myself and find who I really am, I am always shocked to find how lost I was. Losing yourself comes in small slow steps until one day you wake up and realize you are someone...

The Chair- Video

We had this crazy idea that 2018 would be the year of video.  We weren’t sure how to approach, but ultimately we decided to turn a few of our old blog posts into videos.  We went back through the archives and knew we had to turn The Chair into a video.  We’ll let the video speak for itself!

 

 

We had so much fun making this video!  And we are very proud of the results.  Comment what you think of it, we love to hear your opinions.  If you want to watch more of our videos subscribe to our Youtube Channel.  Let us know what you want to see.

Its darkness will be like the morning.” Job11:17

Writing Hurts

My Strength is in Him

  What do people see when they see you ? What do they see when they see me? It’s a question I often ask myself.  Not that my self worth relies in how people see me but in how they see Him in me.  I leave work, meetings, church, or social events hoping I have...
