Ethan and Bess Art time

Cousin Bess came over for a spend the night with Ethan. We had a great time. They went to sleep about 30 minutes ago. But of course we made sure there was some art time included with our fun.




















Renee Van Loon would be proud.

Hanging Rock

We left early this morning (well not really THAT early) and headed out to Hanging Rock State Park for a Murphy Adventure.

It was amazing.  The hike up to the top was just right.  There is something amazing about getting away from traffic, cars, and standing on top of a mountain and looking out.  It changes your perspective.

Here are some pics from the day:

Here is where we went:

Hanging Rock Oct 9

Jesus, thank you that your creation reveals your glory, and that sometimes stepping away from routine opens our eyes a little wider to see You. - Amen.

Divinity Graphiti

This is one of my favorite Divinity school graphiti things written on the wall of a study carol I use in the library. Dr. Ellen Davis is my OT professor. This makes me laugh. It says: "Ellen Davis was here memorizing the Torah 11/21/03" my other favorites are "Karl Barth was here" and "Abram 'heart' Sarai".
