Catching, Cutting, Lights, Stairs

Beauty, Makeup, Hair

Reading my sister's post about her adventure as a bridesmaid has reminded me to write about my dear husband. I, like my sister, am not interested in makeup (we do have the same mother!), and am blessed with a husband whose thoughts on makeup are, "But I want to be able to kiss... (More)

Camping

Last weekend, we went to Keystone State Park with the Tomans. We got a group campsite so we could put both tents together. It was right on the lake and separate enough from other sites for privacy. I hadn't done much with our camping supplies since two years ago, and some of... (More)

BCF Orchestra Concert Pictures

Our new church has a youth orchestra that Jon has become part of. They did a few concerts at local nursing homes last weekend and I got some pictures and videos. The main reason for this post is to explain the videos. Our camera isn't primarily a video camera, so it... (More)

The Report: Jonathan "Drives" A Backhoe
