When you make cookies with pudding...

...make sure you choose vanilla (or even chocolate) pudding. Strawberry is a bit of a surprise.

Retreat at Raxalpe

Last weekend I went with New City Wien to Raxalpe. It was a weekend full of snow, worship, deep thinking, Bible study and fun. I didn't venture outside, but it looked beautiful.

The whole group.

Book Character Dress Up Day

March is book month and last Friday the students dressed up as characters from books.

There was a contest for the best costume. Here's my kids lined up.

I've got a Pirate from Winnie the Pooh.


Sponge Bob Square Pants


The Little Mermaid

David


Assorted Princesses/Fairies

Sadly my kids didn't win anything...even though the Judges Panel was heavily weighted with my good friends!

Snow

The snow that is falling right now would not be so insulting if we hadn't had a week or so of sunny days and "warm" temperatures just a few days ago. As one friend asked, "Was that a taste or a tease?" That remains to be seen.

Barcelona Pictures Part 1

So I know it's been a month, but I'm finally getting around to sorting pictures from Barcelona. Here's a link to the first album...it's just us...not especially the sights. That will come later...maybe next month.
