Pro-Life Rally

On Sunday, January 18, 2009 we attended the Roe vs. Wade Memorial Rally in downtown Portland @ Pioneer Square. The rally was a memorial to honor the 50 milliion babies killed by abortion since the Roe vs. Wade decision in 1973. It was the largest pro-life event in Oregon's history with an estimated 7,000 people! Here are some websites to find out the truth about abortion & how you can help the pro-life movement:

Joey's 2nd Birthday

Today was Joseph's 2nd Birthday. He had fun opening his presents, blowing out his candles & eating cake.

Christmas 2008

Our Christmas this year was small, simple & relaxing. We had fun decorating the tree & making cookies the week prior to Christmas. We tried to keep the focus (as always) on Jesus' birth. We celebrated Advent nightly by lighting the candles & reading the devotionals for our "Jesse Tree". We had our annual birthday party for Jesus in the evening.
