For those of you who might be interested in the history of our neighborhood, here is a link to some great info. I learned some new things! We just love our neighborhood and neighbors! Speaking of neighbors, around the corner our friends just listed their house...they are moving to DC. Want to be our neighbor?! We are praying that the folks who move in will be just as great as the ones leaving!

Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away. ~Dinah Craik

- I love my husband, kids, blogging, photography and house church gatherings. I believe the most valuable way I can spend my time is enjoying other people that God has brought into my life. I want to enjoy God to the fullest here on earth and seek to be a part of His Kingdom here on earth.

That house is SOOO cute! I want to come and see for myself!
I would love to be your neighbor! But Todd can't handle the cold so I guess we'll stay here where it is 110 degrees!
