Summer of 2012

Oh, my goodness....I didn't realize how long it had been since I posted! My apologies! Thanks to those of you who have asked if everything's ok! It is.....just busy! But GOOD busy! :)

I will write this weekend. I promise. :)

Hope your summer is going fantastically well!

Until I return......here's a piece of what's been going on this summer......

Jim got arrested by the NYPD

Emily found the BEST pizza place EVER!

We visited Ground Zero and spent some time reflecting......

We rode in Donald Trump's Golden elevator!

Saw Lady Liberty

Did a little geneology and found our ancestors (who, oddly enough look a LOT like us!)

Took some great photos with my very favorite guy

Saw this AWESOME sunset at the Scituate Lighthouse

God is SO good. We were blessed beyond words to spend some quality time with Emily.

More later! Check in and let me know how you are!

My favorites.....

"Go out into the world today and love the people you meet. Let your presence light new light in the hearts of people."

~ Mother Teresa

Let's pray for those with whom we are angry. It's a good step forward in this law of love. Let's do it. Let's do it today." ~Pope Francis

"To maintain a joyful family requires much from both the parents and the children. Each member of the family has to become, in a special way, the servant of the others."

~Blessed John Paul II

"Continue seeking God with seriousness. Unless He wanted you, you would not be wanting Him."

~CS Lewis

Christ has no online presence but yours,

No blog, no Facebook page but yours,

Yours are the tweets through which love touches this world,

Yours are the posts through which the Gospel is shared,

Yours are the updates through which hope is revealed.

Christ has no online presence but yours.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. (Philippians 4:6)

A brand-new year... to live; to believe; to give; to receive; to fall in love; to share a smile; to walk an inch; to run a mile; to dive into sunsets; to forgive; to forget; to love where you’re going; to embrace where you’ve been; to take a deep breath, close your eyes... and begin. May the new year be filled with love, adventure, and dreams come true.

"My church is composed of people like me. I help make it what it is. It will be friendly, if I am. It will be holy, if I am. Its pews will be filled, if I help fill them. It will do great work, if I work. It will be prayerful, if I pray. It will make generous gifts to many causes, if I am a generous giver. It will bri...ng others into worship, if I invite and bring them. It will be a church of loyalty and love, of fearlessness and faith, of compassion, charity, and mercy, if I am filled with these same things. Therefore, with the help of God, I now dedicate myself to the task of being all the things that I want my church to be."

What we tolerate..... our children will embrace.
