What Is This I Spy?

It looks like....

Someone walked through here that was not so clean...

Anyone have a guess?

Here are a couple of hints- 1. The person was not barefoot, that meas it can't of been me. :D

2. This looks to be about a size 11 or 12, so I don't think it was mom...

We are having what some people around here like to call a "heat wave"

Very NICE sunny days

Snow melting slowly away

Never fear! It won't be gone too long! :D

Aren't you all glad to hear that? =]

Oh, and here is for all of you that aren't very good spy's and didn't guess who it was by my oh so 'hard' hints above.

Seeing as it was so nice out today dad was very thoughtful and cleaned out the chimney, seeing as it needed it oh so much before we went to Zambia. Speaking of Zambia, the time is coming up fast! Just two more days! =} If any of you would like to follow us on our trip you can go here-http://drbentownsend.spaces.live.com/default.aspx and hopefully dad will be able to keep up with it while we are gone. Hope you enjoy!

And please, if you would pray for us while we are gone, we would be very grateful. :)

Natotela! or Thank you! =]

The Crazy Kids

Brad, Jessica, and kids came over the other night and I thought I'd get some pictures of the kids for everyone to see.
Faith had (as you can see) an Apple, Cheez-it's, and a Carrot Cake thing. And she ate them all! (Tried to do it all at once, but mean ol' Aunt Bethany stoped her)

Mr. Parker was pouting about something

And not very happy that I was enjoying taking his picture so much when he was not happy

"What are you lookin' at?"

"Oh! I don't know if I shall ever make it through all this!"

"JUST KIDDING! I can eat just about everything!"

Goofy Carter

Yet SOOO cute!

And silly! =]

What a face!

I think Jessica looks sleepy. :)

Mr. Cheezy

Grandma, and Parker, working on Phase 10

"HUH?" =]

"Get one of me and Faither's doggy!"

Still not very happy I have the camera

Well, that's what I have for now! Hope you enjoy!

Might get one or two more posts up before heading to Zambia on the 10th, but we'll see. =]

Verses That Have Stuck Out To Me

PSALM 23:1-3, 6 1.The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3.He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. & 6.Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PSALM 25:1-5, 20-21 1.Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. 2.O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. 3.Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. 4.Shew me thy ways, O LORD, teach me thy paths. 5.Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day..... & 20.O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. 21.Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. ~~~~~~~~~~ PSALM 27:14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. ~~~~~~~~~~~ PSALM 28:6-7 6.Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. 7.The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. ~~~~~~~~~~~ ISAIAH 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you would like to, please go get your Bible and read the whole chapters, and not just the verses I have here, these are things that David, (and Isaiah), had to say to the Lord way back when, and I'm sooo thankful that the Lord gave the Bible to us so that we might learn from others who's lifes he was working through, in some of the same ways as he is working through us now'a'days. Thank you LORD.

I Believe

I believe that God made the universe in just the span of six days, I believe that Noah built a mighty boat that floated safe on the waves; I believe that Daniel slept his cares away on the floor of the lions' den, I believe that the word of God is sure and points our hearts to Him.

I believe, From Genesis to Revelation, yes, Lord, I believe; That Your word is sure, Your love is pure, Your grace I now receive, the two words of my heart, Lord, I believe.

I believe that Mary had a baby boy, but Joseph was not his dad, I believe that Jesus lived a perfect life, No one else ever has; I believe that He died on a rugged cross to pay for all my sins, I believe that early on the third day my Savior rose again.
