So many memories...

I'm having so much fun working on a huge memory book project for the Woolley family. We have probably over 500 pictures going back generations into the past! At Christmas I gave the partially completed book to Craig's mother who is 92 and she loved it. It was fun watching her turn each page and recalling special people and special moments. Since Christmas the family has found additional pictures so it will be awhile before the project is complete...but then it really never will be complete since there will be other little ones joining the family. What blessings!!

Wow...

I'm so busy reading everyone else's blogs that I never remember to post on mine!! Well, we had a rather "interesting" experience here yesterday. Craig almost electrocuted himself and that's no joke. Our furnace went out so while we were waiting for the repairman to come over I plugged in an electric heater...but it was on the same wall as some other appliances and blew the circuit. We couldn't get the power back and so he turned off the power and removed the circuits, took them to Lowe's to have them checked, came back, put them in, tested them with the power on of course, forgot it was on and started to do something else at the box and WHAMO!!! He touched something very live with his screwdriver no less...he wasn't hurt but it blew a chunk of metal off the side of the box. I had said a prayer that he would be safe working with the electricity and he was really blessed. He said from now on he is hiring an electrician!! He joked and told me that I could have collected on his insurance policy...but I told him that JB Fletcher or Colombo would probably accuse me of shorting out the power in the first place!! Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised to find that there is a clause in his insurance policy about dying during home repairs...I think they call it suicide. LOL

Seminary...

Well after 3 weeks vacation Seminary starts again on Monday. Boy, I'm going to have to convince my body that it needs to get up at 4:45 again!!! That's not going to be easy!! :)
I have been teaching for 7 years now and still love it. I've learned so much and my days are just not the same when we don't have Seminary. This year we are studying the New Testament and even though I have taught it before I have just learned so much this year. I have an awesome class...but then I have always been blessed to have the best!!
