Lovely Quotes

Friend, what is your "best thing"? No doubt it is something which has cost you. When we offer our best, it always takes a bite out of something we hold dear. So always offer to God your best. And when you do, you will be happy about it because it is a true gift of love.

~Joni Eareckson Tada on Joni and Friends: Diamonds in the Dust

God wants us to be obsessively and compulsively concerned with the needs and wants of other people.

Party: Home Run Style!

Cris

To celebrate Brandon's 16th birthday and Gary's birthday, we went to the Dbacks NLDS playoff game. First, everyone came over for dinner at our house and then we all got on the light rail and went downtown. There were quite a few people on the train and everyone was getting quite cozy. Just as we got off the light rail, it started raining pretty hard.

We got soaked.

Grams and Mom looking a bit bedraggled.

Darcy, Gary, and Eric more than slightly wet too.

Apparently not much was happening at this moment, the guys decided to take a nap.

Ok, so this is a bad picture of everyone. Jeremy leaned in just as I took the picture and showed up in it. I thought it was funny. Maybe I have a weird sense of humor.
