TechTime-out

my time at the "Treehouse" is always a nice technology time-out.
it used to be a real get away...
now we can get on the internet, use our smart phones, and watch tv...
but i still like to take a little break.
while we where there, i got on as little as possible.

and that got me thinking....
it would be nice to take a tech time-out at home too.

so...i may have my new year's resolution...
have at least one day a week as a time-out from technology...
no facebook.
no email.
no blogs.

now i just have to pick the day and stick to it.
good luck to me.
glad i have a month to figure it out! :)

thanksGIVING

it feels so good to give....
and i am so proud to live in a community that cares
and be a part of a group that gives so much...

 

at our annual Golf Tournament we raised enough money 
from mulligans and tee-busters to purchase 
924 canned goods for Hope Station!
and just this week our members brought food and money 
to purchase Thanksgiving dinner for 3 local families!


Happy Thanksgiving!
tonight i am thankful for all that we have
and feel so blessed that we can give back.
no matter how small, every little bit helps...

It's all in the details

i am still thinking about this blog....
this will be more about the little details of our life...
a chance for me to share some of the photos i take and get creative...
i use facebook for the fun-family-cutest-little-boy-in-the-world pictures...
so this will show our life from a different view...
but still show the important things...



for instance these blocks...
i recently pulled out them for SBJ
and i am so happy that he enjoys playing with them!
my granddaddy MADE them...how awesome is that....
just the thought of my granddaddy makes me smile,
but the sight of SBJ playing with his blocks gives me perma-grin!!

so, sometimes it is the little things, the details, that are important...
that is what i look forward to sharing...
