I just found this picture from earlier this summer, and Stephanie reminded me of the pure bliss of running down the dune to Lake Michigan.

Cell phones

My cell phone died yesterday and the cell phone place is still working on fixing it. I can't believe how much I use it!! Happiness is cell phones. What did we do without them?

Jesus

Happiness is knowing that Jesus overcame the grave! We had a great sermon today about how we don't have to live with guilt if we believe Jesus died for us. If you have guilt over something you did, you need to confess it and will be forgiven. If you have guilt over something that you've already confessed, then you can let it go because you've been forgiven!

Micah 7:18b "You (the Lord) will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea." (NRSV)

Micah 7:8 "Do not rejoice over me, O my enemy; when I fall, i shall rise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me." (NRSV)

We all sin, but the Lord is always with us! That truely is happiness!

County Fairs




We went to the Allegan Co. Fair today even though it was raining. We loved the animals, especially the sheep and the pigs (but we didn't take pictures by the pigs).


College Football Saturdays!!!

Go Michigan! Go Iowa State!

Smiles

Smiling at your baby and having her smile back :)

Interviews

Happiness is...Joel getting offered his first interview for residency! Yay, Medical College of Wisconsin. And, since it is in Milwaukee, Kyper and I are going to join him and visit with Aren and Leah!

He also was informally told that he would have an interview at Botsford in Metro Detroit!

Shoes

Happiness is having shoes. I've recently realized that not everyone in the world has access to shoes. I wear shoes almost the entire day!

I'm particularly thankful for my new TOM's shoes which are super comfy, by Chaco sandals (2 pairs) and the rubber boots I wear in the barns.

Yay for shoes!
