The Biltmore- the dining room

In Matthew 22 Jesus begins with the Parable of the wedding banquet comparing the kingdom of heaven to the wedding banquet a king was holding for his son. All the preparations had been made and the invitations sent, but no one would come… Three times in the first four Gospels it is recorded what Jesus spoke at the Last…

The Biltmore- Home

We stood on the stone wall taking in the view. The gardens lie to the left of the home, the stables to the right, and the driveway continues along the gate to the front steps and then exits. Everyone that we meet associated with the home is kind and welcoming which is truly refreshing compared…

The Biltmore – entering the estate

As we approached Biltmore Estate in Ashville, NC, I had to contain my excitement as for some time now I had desired to see the house and the grounds. I must confess we had attempted to see the house once before and had only made it as far as the building that sold the tickets…

The Little Box

As I continue my story these last few weeks of 2015 will be of Christmas past. My question is how do you countdown to Christmas? Are you counting down ever aware of the days left for shopping? Are you checking off a to do list in preparation? Are you using an advent calendar and sharing…

Riding with the Moment

“It’s time for bed boys!” They quickly began changing clothes, brushing teeth, and in between doing so, began asking me some strange questions.  “Hey, Mom, how do you like your water?  Hot, cold, or in between?” Being in my own separate moment I was slightly oblivious to what they were doing around me, and answered…

Chasing goats and kissing pigs…all in a days work.

Guess what I got to do over the weekend?  Sunday School was hosting a special day for the children to help “kick off” going back to school.  My husband and I took a few small animals for the children to be able to pet and see.   The trick to that was this- we only…

MOPS continues….

I, (then expecting my third child), loaded the kiddos and drove one and a half hours to MOPS.  Upon our arrival the door was held wide open with a warm welcome and a smile that greeted us from a MOPS mom. Beyond excited, my sister showed me right away where my kiddos would be playing…
