Family Fashion

By
Recently my friend Sarah participated in "fashion week" on her blog. She's so chic. I got the giggles thinking of me trying to do something like that! But the more I thought about it, the more fun I thought it would be... so here we go:
Long Sleeved T-shirt (?Mervyns? I've had it since college so I don't know!)
White Vest (Walmart Clearance)
Jeans (Old Navy Clearance)
Shoes (also 10 years old, so I don't remember!)



Grace
Long Sleeved T-shirt (Clearanced @ Children's Place)
Jeans (Old Navy-gift from Auntie T.)
Shoes-she didn't get the memo on wearing shoes

Noraa
Long Sleeved T-shirt (Gymboree hand me down)
Jeans (Old Navy hand me down
Shoes (hand me down)



Grey
Shirt (Gap)
Jeans (??)
Shoes (Adidas)



Sammy
Shirt (Old Navy on clearance at Once Upon A Child)
Jeans (hand me down)
Socks (hand me down)

As you can see, we are a thrifty family, and we love to make our money stretch with hand me downs, but I think we look cute while doing it! Don't you?

Samuel is finally here. He was born on September 5 at 3:18am. Amy labored for 3 hours and had one good push, and there he was. Both Amy and Sam are doing great! Grace is very happy to be a big sister and Noraa has kind of noticed he's here. We've had lots of visitors and everyone is so excited that he's a boy. It seems like a lot of friends had been hoping that he would be a boy. I would have been glad either way, but I am definitely looking forward to the Father/Son experience. The other thing that people comment on the most is his name. He has 4 names including 35 letters! Samuel is one of our favorite Bible characters. He responded when the Lord called his name, and he also anointed King David. Harrison is a family name. My cousin Brooke had a son named Harrison who was born with Spina Bifida , and spent his life in a wheelchair. He was a major blessing and inspiration to our family and everyone who knew him. He was extremely smart and I can't really say enough he...

The Closing of a Great Legacy

Today I heard some news that truly saddened me. The college I attended will be closing at the end of this accademic year. For me the journey began back in 1986... my oldest sister Shawna started attending a small Christian college in Portland, Oregon. Our family would go visit her from time to time and I would get to stay in her dorm room occasionally. I played pool in the "lower JC" and ran around the campus as a young child loving the attention of all the really cool college students. I knew that someday I would attend this same school. The doors closing of Columbia Christian College was devastating to me, but as it re-opened a year later as Cascade College I was not truly affected by the transition. My turn came in 1997 when I finally stepped foot on the campus as a full fledged college student. This was MY school now! I will not be able to recount for you the knowledge, the memories, the friends and the spiritual growth attained in my four years there. If I were to try, t...
