Well we are finally in and pretty well settled into the parsonage! After two weeks of unpacking it feels good to look around and feel like this is becoming home. So come on in and take a peak!

Sixteen Years
Monday, January 25th, 2016
For my niece Elle (pronounced Ellie for those of you who wouldn’t know that) on her birthday.
My dear Elisabeth Noel,
Today you are Sixteen! You know it always seems impossible to us oldies that you babies grow up and how quickly that happens.
Sixteen years ago I was a student at the University of Texas working in the basement of the Main Building scanning paperwork for the Graduate Studies Department and waiting. Waiting for the HUGE news that you had been born.
Your dad had given his pager (yes, this was the dark ages) to me so he could let me know as soon as you entered the world.
Esther’s Spotters Visit
Tuesday, December 15th, 2015
Esther’s Baptismal sponsors or Spotters as she says, are good friends of our from our former parish. They and their kiddos were so kind to come all the way to Omaha to pay us a visit and celebrate her birth and rebirth with us!
A couple months after the fact but still special and fun for Esther!
Happy Barb Day
Thursday, December 3rd, 2015
Saturday it was time to do Thanksgiving right! It was also the day our new friend Barb was coming over to visit. It was her birthday so we decided she would not only be our guest for Thanksgiving, but we would also throw her a surprise party.
