Ice Skating

By Leslie Parks - Friday, March 29, 2013
Our trial year of ice skating is done.  I think that in order for Job to get good we would have to devote our life to being at the rink.  We would need to join the figure skating club, take extra lessons and live at the rink.  It was a great experiment though.  He got some things out of it.  He moved up...

The Recital

By Leslie Parks - Friday, March 29, 2013

The other day Lona just breezed through her school work or so it seemed to me but she started an hour earlier than normal.  So by 11 am she was mostly done and we packed up the little bit of math, her knitting, my camera, and my knitting and hurried out the door to our local coffee shop.  She ordered a Sobe and...

Crazy Hair Night

By Leslie Parks - Friday, March 01, 2013
Lona gets so into the theme nights at Awana. It's her thing. The best nights though are crazy hair night which means that I need to come up with something crazy. Enter pinterest. A while back Lona was looking through the pinterest board (I can see a future addiction for her) and came across a site about crazy hair.  She pinned it. Hmmm....
