Free Audio Book!


Behemoth.com is offering a FREE audio book until March 31st! We highly reccommend this book and know that your whole family will enjoy it! At Behemoth.com you can easily download their MP3 tracks and put them on your iPod! This would be a wonderful book to listen to as a family on a road trip or even just doing everyday household chores such as folding laundry! I personally like to listen to books on tape while I sew. Today I am going to listen to this book while I paint our kitchen a cheery, buttery yellow color! Spring is just around the corner!!!

About the Book:

Ten P's in a Pod
"Join a family of ten on a million-mile journey of evangelism, home education and discipleship.

Journaling his family's travels, experiences, and ministry, Arnold Pent III (the third of eight children) first published Ten P's in a Pod in 1965 at the age of twenty-one. You'll learn of his father's commitment to family Bible reading, Scripture memorization, and singing together, as well as enjoy all the antics one might expect from piling eight children into two old cars and hitting the road to take the gospel message anywhere they found a group willing to listen.

Gather the family around and hear the story read by the author himself (now in his sixties) and enjoy this heart-warming story sure to encourage you and your family. The Good Soil is a one-hour audio program featuring interviews with all eight siblings, highlighting their thoughts on their upbringing and their advice for the next generation of parents seeking to give their children a Biblical heritage."

The day is drawing nigh...

...even though at times it doesn't feel that way!
The Lord has blessed the wedding planning amazingly and I finished sewing my wedding dress early this week! Today Kami, Mom, Annie, and I made all the party favors, almond bark covered pretzles! Since we've got all the large things finished, time seems to have slowed down a bit for me. I am sure that after this Sunday the days will start going a lot faster.
I do have some more packing to do, which I will work on some more this evening.
I'm going to be staring a new private blog where I'll post pictures of David and I and what we're up to after we're married, so if you're a friend and want to be added, just let me know!!!
(Ha! I'm going to have to change my user name to Mrs. S now...instead of Miss C.!!!)

Polishing Silver


I really enjoy polishing silver, for a few reasons...
First, because this was my grandmother's silver and it's special for me to be polishing something that was her's.
I also enjoy it becuase it's kind of like a treasure hunt! It's very rewarding to see what some elbow grease (and silver polish, of course) can do to make something so dull and grimey turn into something so gorgeous and pretty for everyone to enjoy!
Coffee just somehow tastes a little better coming out of this...
