For anyone who doesn't get to go to Ruby's birthday party today, this is the video that we made for her. It's quite long (~18:00), and it was made with Windows Movie Maker. Although it has its obvious bad points, I'm actually quite impressed with the program. Enjoy!

Yesterday, we celebrated Ruby's first year of life. When trying to decide who to invite to the celebration, we realized that there were literally a couple of hundred people who have touched Ruby's life (and our life!!) in the past year. Since we couldn't fit that many people in Zach and Sarah's house, we tried to limit the number of people as best as we could. The number of people who wanted to celebrate with us was absolutely overwhelming, and we ended up changing the location to the church. We maxed out the bonus room, and many people enjoyed the day with us.

This is video from Christmas that I forgot to put up. Kyle is rocking out on guitar, while Lindsay tries to sing a song that she doesn't know and Kayce Swofford bangs away on the drums. It's pretty good stuff.

I believe that Mike Huckabee is a man in whom we can trust. I do believe that he is trying his best to live a life that is a positive witness for Jesus Christ. I'm impressed with him in many ways, and I'm praying that we see a political miracle this year. God can do great things. We've seen it in our own life, and we've seen it in this country.

Seriously! Only three people live in this house, I swear! However, laundry seems to materialize out of thin air!!! After tonight, I should be completely caught up, aside from the actual clothes that are on the backs of my husband, my daughter, and myself. Just watch, though...tomorrow afternoon, there will twelve loads waiting for me to get started washing, drying, folding, and putting away.
Okay, maybe that's a slight exageration, but it just seems like it never ends.

After about an hour on the phone with Vonage support, I have cancelled our service. So, our home phone number no longer works. This is just a small way for us to cut back on monthly bills, now that Lindsay is not working. If you need our cell phone numbers, please let us know.

I have finally launched a site that I've been working on for awhile:

Well, here it goes: You are forewarned!
Being home with Ruby during the day has been such an amazing blessing. I have lost track of how many times Mike has said: "Eating at home is so much better than eating out." or "This is so much better." or something of that nature. It truly is such an incredible difference. Our house stays clean and organized. Dinner is on the table every night. Ruby stays on a consistent schedule, and I am able to spend some very good time with her.
