There are challenges out there to get "unplugged" and take a weekly "sabbath" from technology. This has been an unintentional time as our "e- something card" has gone bad, keeping us off the web. So, here I am at Paul's work trying to play catch up on a week's worth of email and news! While it has posed many inconveniences and a few challenges, it is a good reminder that prior to the 90's we managed! :)
Here's the RESOLVED trailer if you haven't seen it. . .Wow. Can't wait!

The Big Ten!
Getting ready for breakfast in bed! Josh turned 10 on 2/22, but because it was a Sunday morning we moved the breakfast in bed portion to Monday morning.
My sweet, unassuming, "balk at the sight of blood" son is enthralled with hunting. I'm not sure where that came from, but he enjoys shooting his pellet gun and reading about hunting.
The gang wishes Joshua a very happy birthday. It's exciting to hit those Double Digits!
Friends from church, Joel and Zach, helped Josh enjoy his new game. Miss Julie got the kids hooked on Risk last summer, so now Josh can conquer the world.
As always, a special evening with Dad completes the birthday excitement. We are so thankful to have enjoyed a decade with such a neat young man who has a heart for God.
