I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenck's lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor's children. I want to be there with a little dirl under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

Going To Church! (1~25)

This was Alyssa's first time to church! She did so well. She just stayed in her car seat and slept! Isn't she soo pretty?!!

Ohhh, she looks so cute in that outfit! Chelsey, seeing these pictures makes me so sad, because I haven't seen her in person yet. It feels like there's something very wrong with that! I can't wait for you guys to come to St. George.
