Meet the Family

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Take a moment to get to know us.  
I married my best friend in 2006 on a June day.  

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone? And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.


2015 is here already!   I had not updated the "Meet the Family" section in over 2 years! This blog sure has changed since I started it in 2011.  I do wish I had more time to poor into this blog but at this time I have limited time and I apologize for all my typos! Since the start of my blog we relocated from Wisconsin to Iowa and I went from a stay at home mom to a working mom.   I am a special education teacher so I do still get lots of time with my babies which I treasure.    



1 John 3:18 

Dear children, let us not love with words or 

tongue but with actions and in truth. (NIV)

We welcomed our first blessing in September 2007, Selah came 4 weeks early but she was the best surprise.  We were not planning on getting pregnant so early in our marriage but God knows what is best!  She sure added a ton of joy to this family.  

Selah 3 months old

Selah 9 months old. 

Selah is now 7 years old and enjoys school, being a big sister, singing, and all things girly!   She joined girl scouts this year and still is a leader in our children's program at church.   


Psalms 127:3 

Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a 

reward from him. (NLT)




Titus couple weeks old

Titus loves his pacifiers. Titus is almost 1 and he loves his family, balls, and his blue polk a dot blankie.  


Titus is a wired almost 4 year old boy!   He brings a sense of humor with him where ever he goes.   He is all about super heroes and fighting but he still needs his mama cuddle time.   


Matthew 19:14 

But Jesus said, "Let the children come to me. 

Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven 

belongs to those who are like these children." 

(NLT)

My blog is covered with more family pictures so stay awhile and look around.  Also, my blog is full of life stories, craft ideas, christian messages, encouragement, reviews and giveaways, and PRAISE and LOVE!  
    Psalm 107:1 
    "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever."

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Packing for your first ski trip

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack.  Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
