"In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed.. .No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.

The End of Upward Basketball Season!

Ben and Trent's last basketball games!

Ben scored a basket, and I got roped into reffing his game! It was really fun, though. I ended up stealing Trent's shoes and he was stuck with my boots. Needless to say, he watched the game barefoot from the walking track. =)

Audio Drama

One of my very favorite things to do is listen to Focus on the Family's Radio Theater Audio Dramas. Over the years I've collected A BUNCH of their audio CDs. I wanted to share some of my very favorites with you all!

My two very favorites are the Father Gilbert Mysteries (pictured above) and the whole Narnia series. This series centers around Father Louis Gilbert, a former Scotland Yard detective who became an Anglican priest and the Vicar of St. Mark's Church, in the fictional Sussex village of Stonebridge. These audio dramas are extremely exciting and I would recommend them for people ages 13 and up. I have listened to these over and over and I never get tiered of them!!

This one is pretty self-explanatory. If you like Little Women, you will LOVE these CDs!

I have never read Ben Hur, just listened to the CDs. It is a timeless classic That my whole family enjoys listening to. =)

I have never read the book Les Miserables, just listened to the CDs. It took me a few times of listening to the whole thing before I completely understood it, but it is a GREAT story!!!

Finally, my almost favoritest (I don't think that is a real word but it fits!)!!! This was the first set I ever got, and I can not even tell you guys how many times I have listened to them all. They are all on my ipod and I probably have most of them memorized. If you love Narnia, you will really LOVE these CDs!!

Good Movies

My family has seen some really good, old movies lately, and I thought I would share some of them with you all!

I remembered watching this old Disney movie when I was little, but I was too young to catch the whole story. This is a hilarious movie with a great plot, and I really enjoyed watching it again!

I love Swiss Family Robinson movies, and if you do too, you will like this movie as well! It follows the original book and is a more serious movie. It is long, but I enjoyed the whole thing! It is one of my favorites.


This movie is a lot like "That Darn Cat." It is a wonderful family film with a great plot and actors. I will never be too old for funny, old Disney movies. =)

We finished this one last night. It was made quite a while ago, but I was surprised at how captivation it was. It is the story of a young, native boy who grows up to translate and copy the Bible in his native tongue for his village.

Space and Rocket Center

Last week we went on a field trip to the Space and Rocket Center with our grandfather. He was able to show us the parts of the rocket he used to work on!

Happy Birthday Pawpaw!

Happy 70th Pawpaw!

Considering I am in the proses of catching up on my blogging, these pictures were taken two weeks ago. We drove down to visit our grandparents and our uncle and little cousin on our Pawpaw's birthday. =)

I know this is an awkwardly squished picture of us, but we were in an awkwardly small kitchen. haha...
