Yeah, I know, it's been awhile...

This time of year is non-stop for us, and so I have been terribly neglecting this blog...apologies to all of you readers (how many of you are there? Four now? Woo-hoo!!)

We are knee-deep in Easter play practice at church, in addition to our already-full schedule. The play means being at church every day but Friday for me, and every day, period, for Jason-no day off for four months!! Pray for endurance!

We had a wonderful Christmas, and then we had an awesome time at winter camp. There are tons of pictures on Facebook, you should check them out! The Lord truly blessed us.

Here is a pic of Eric's 4th (yes, I said 4th! I can't believe it either!) birthday! He's such a wonderful boy, and every day he does something that makes us all smile. He's been sick the past few days-he's a real trooper of a patient.


Jason cooked me dinner on Valentine's day: porterhouse steak and baked potatoes-mmm. He and I watched "Fireproof" and we loved it! If you haven't seen it yet, go rent it! As I was thinking about the movie, and Jason and I were talking about it together, I thought about the best marital advice I ever heard (from Dr. Curtis Hutson-great preacher of the past): "Do for your husband and train your husband-never the other way around." That statement is so profound! If we start training our kids to be good husbands and wives, then we will see our children have good marriages. And, if we start doing things for our husbands, instead of trying to re-train them, then we will be happier.
So, what's the best marital advise you ever received?
