We love you Jackie

So, as many of you know the preacher's wife Jackie has been quite ill for a while now. She was put in the icu the other day. I just got word tonight that she went to see our HEAVENLY FATHER. She made her grand entrance in Heaven at 12 Noon yesterday. I know she is having a wonderful time up there with Jesus, but:

WE LOVE YOU JACKIE
OH YES WE DO
WE LOVE YOU JACKIE
OH HOW WE MISS YOU
WE LOVE YOU JACKIE
WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU!

And we will. When God calls us all home, we will be reunited with our dear friend Jackie. I just pray that Skip is doing ok. He loved her dearly and I just don't know how he is taking her being gone.
Love,
Ryan, Dawn, Kenzie, and Maddie Cox

The importance of connections

Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways. Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
