THANK YOU NAN ( and Granpa and Irene!)

A vote was take on what to buy with our generous Christmas checks from Nan and G'pa and Irene.
Since our tv was showing signs of biting the dust, and since watching sporting events and Veggie Tales dvds are such a vital, important part of family life around here ( cough, cough).....by almost unanimous vote a new tv was chosen.
The dissenter was allowed a stipend to buy herself....er...she and the littles, a yearly pass to the zoo! :)

More pics of the boys enjoying their new Christmas train and Jed with the coveted *King Car-nivore!

And it is this humanity of Jesus that makes visible what is divine in him,
which makes him manifest to us as God. Frenzy of any kind - even if it is
'religious' zeal and frenzy - is totally alien to the man of the New
Testament. Think about it: Every time that we believe we are absolutely
indispensable, every time we think that the world and the Church depend on
our tireless activity, we over-value ourselves.

It is not that I wish to sing the praises of laziness, but I do wish to
suggest a certain change in the table of virtues as it has evolved in the
Western world, for which only action counts as a legitimate and conceivable
activity - whereas meditation, wonder, self-communion and silence are seen
to be indefensible and worthless, or at the very least, 'activities' that
need to be justified.
