--Snippets--

There's a bunch of stuff I haven't been able to post about lately due to lack of time, Picasa album space, etc...So I've chosen a few pictures from several different things and compiled them all into one big, long, boring post. Enjoy! :oD
 
FIRE!
Q: When you get Callie and Amanda together, what do you get?
A: FIRE :)
Wows...and what a fire! Yesssiree! :)

"Hello, my name is Ryan, and I'm here to help!" :oP

RENDEZVOUS!


Us crazy, freezing cold Rendezvous-goers ;o)
Will loves the buffalo, bear, sheep, deer skins, etc. :) I think It'd make a lovely rug. :D
Ooops, Larry. What did you do now?? :oP

Well, I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean, but...oh well. It makes for a good picture. :)

~LOWRY PARK ZOO~

I think Mr Whatever-He-Is just puts the U in Ugly...Fo real.
CJ thinks so too....
My lovely Marmie. ;o)
Callie and I pose in front of one of our closest ancestors!! You're jealous, right? Yeah, I know. :)
"Okay, so the sign says I'm related to that...Ummm....help?
"That's what WE are here for!"
{Action! You're on the Air}
 "Hi, I'm Andrew."
 "I'm C.J."
 "And I'm Margaret. We are here at the Lowry Park Zoo exploring the wonders of God's Creation."

Andrew: "Yes. We have come here to learn about the various kinds of animals through a Biblical, Creationist worldview!"
C.J.: "Now come and join us on our adventure as we refute evolution and give God the glory He deserves!"
{Cut}

(These are almost exactly their words...as well as I could remember them. 
They recorded various other "scenes.") ;o)

Yay! Abby is having fun riding the preeetty horsey! :oD ;o)
My wonderful Granddaddy and so-cute-he's almost edible baby brother. :)

"Feed the birds! Tuppence a bag..." ;o)
"Oooh! Biiirdy! Biiirdy! I want to grab it, squeeze it, and then suck on it's head!"
{You're on the air!}
Heeheehee. :D
Yes...my immature sense of humor is shining through. I laughed and snorted for five minutes cause I thought this was so funny. No, please don't laugh at me. Well...at least you can pretend you're laughing at the picture...

YOUTH FAIR!
We didn't show much of anything this year, but it's always fun to go down and see what everyone else entered. :)

Can you say obese?
Hogs being auctioned off.
The piggies lookin at all the piggies. :)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. 
  Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.


 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.


 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. 
In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,


 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.


 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: 
and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. 

 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony
of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.


 The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: 
the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.


 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: 
the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. 

 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: 
sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.


 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.


 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.


 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.


 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

Psalm 19

Dinner on the Grounds & Keepers of the Faith




 All day sing and dinner on the ground
Young folks, old folks are gatherin' around
Delicious is the meal and joyful is the sound
Of an all day sing and dinner on the ground

It's an old fashion notion and a new fashion day
People that are friendly and people that pray
Everybody's welcome and heaven's above
What's brought us all together is a thing called love

We're going on back to those good ol' days
When summer was forever and simple things amazed
The laughter of the children and the games on the grass
A voice that was whisperin' "this is what lasts"

Dark days may come hard times will too
Remember this day, it'll help you get through
And the first day of heaven is gonna astound
It's like an all day sing and dinner on the ground


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
 The Keepers at Home
 The Contenders for the Faith
 Making crosses from Florida cedar wood.


 The ladies learning how to make soap...

 Playing fun games with Grandmama. :o)


A good, old fashioned game of Flies and Grounders. :o)











"For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 
Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 
That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; 
 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 
 May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, 
  Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen."
Ephesians 3:14-21
