Family Fun Day in Denison

March 25, 2012: Today we went to the birthplace of Dwight Eisenhower. Yes, we went to his family's home and toured the grounds, but we also explored the town and it's unique nature and dam that crosses over into Oklahoma. We had a wonderful time discovering interesting cliffs and pools of water in the state park. We took pictures in the fields of flowers surrounding the dam before watching the dam be opened. We crossed over into Oklahoma just so we could say we'd been there. ☺ Then we toured Eisenhower's childhood home and learned quite a bit about his family and him as a man and president. We even got some letterboxing in! Yay! It was a great family togetherness day!

Fun on the Sabbath Day!

March 24, 2012: Oh, what a beautiful day! Great church service, fabulous weather outside for a picnic, and singing at the nursing home with friends! We feel refreshed!

Reminder of God's Promises

Saw this this evening!

We love green!

March 17: Happy St. Patrick's Day! :) Busy day for us! It was slightly amusing that we were just about the only people at church wearing green for the holiday, but since we are by far some of the only people of European descent there, I guess that is not surprising. :P Aileana's Sabbath School class sang for the church service, and she loved it! Then we had a fun time at Adventurers in the afternoon, and went to some friends' house for the evening! Overall, a relaxing and enjoyable day. :)

Forklifts and Scones

March 14: The long-awaited day has arrived! We got our truck back today! Yay! We were a bit disturbed and amused at how they brought it to us at the impound lot, but nevertheless thankful to have it in our possession once again. Now to get it repaired so we can actually drive it...
Also much-anticipted was Aile and I's Mother/Daughter date! Aile wanted to "relax and have fun and look at books", so off we went to A Real Bookstore, a locally-owned version of Barnes 'n' Noble. We had a great time, found some neat items, and even stopped for a scone and hot chocolate to top off the evening! Love my special girl! :)
