Life with the Lords: There's 180 days of home school...
http://thelordfamily.blogspot.com/2012/07/theres-180-days-of-home-school.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2012. There's 180 days of home school. Yeah, I tried to go with the Phineas and Ferb theme song.and it didn't really work. But, I will say that home school is sometimes like P&F.where I am Dofenshmirtz and I trap Perry (a.k.a. my students) in some sort of ineffective trap in order to fill their young brains with knowledge. Hmm, maybe the analogy really isn't getting anywhere. I know that every day can't be "fun," but I want us to be able to enjoy it most of the time. I got out my x-acto...

Life with the Lords: February 2012
http://thelordfamily.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 13, 2012. Look around, leaves are brown. And and and.could the sky possibly be a hazy shade of winter? I know I'm glued to trying to discern the meaning of meteorological models that I have no grasp of understanding. In the hopes.oh the hopes.of winter. I have several posts that I need to make from our Disney adventure- scrapbook pages and race reports. But, I feel like I can't do those race reports before I do the other two races that I did in May and October. Btw, that is not. Well 2 t...

Life with the Lords: An Unexpected Run
http://thelordfamily.blogspot.com/2014/08/an-unexpected-run.html
Sunday, August 10, 2014. A post about how a long run turned into a teachable moment. Last week's ten mile run was rain delayed- torrential downpour led to slippery trails, so I concluded the run at 5 miles and then finished the remaining 5 on Sunday. Not as planned, but it works. This weekend was looking to be a repeat, weather wise, of last week. I set out Saturday afternoon to complete 12 miles. Why are you doing this? Who do you think you are? In the last week, I've had two reminders of how fleeting l...

SHINNanigans: June 2011
http://shinnfam.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You." Isaiah 26:3. Friday, June 24, 2011. J and J's Final Post (sniff sniff). We consider Botswana a very good place indeed. It has become a catch phrase, like the one our guide used on our day walks in the Okavango Delta when he told us a safe location for "the calling of the nature.". At our final lunch out. A coffee shop and cafe called Fegos. Someone came out to say goodbye to us. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. I say ‘...

You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You." Isaiah 26:3. Wednesday, October 10, 2012. What I Miss About Botswana. Beautiful Blue Botswana Sky. We've been back in the US for a little over a year now. We still get asked, "Do you miss Botswana? And the answer is always "Yes". While the US is home and we are so blessed to live in this great nation, part of our hearts will always be in Botswana. Some of the aspects I miss most:. I miss you Bev, Mirabel and Celine!

The Easter Bunny made a visit to some Gaborone, Botswana, kids over the weekend. Though there was much rain (a downpour when the Bunny visited), there were lots of smiles. and a few kids that screamed and ran the other way! Hugs from this sweet group of young ladies for the Easter Bunny. I think I recognize your voice.but you sure look funny! The ONE ph...

You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You." Isaiah 26:3. Saturday, November 6, 2010. Oudtshoorn and The Cango Caves. Our next stop was at this lovely place - Eight Bells Mountain Inn. If you look to the left of this photo - beyond the stone arch, you should see a log cabin. We didn't stay in one of these - but they looked so charming! We stayed in a family suite which was equipped with 2 bedrooms. Daddy and daughter taking a stroll. I am so spoiled. After a ...

Life with the Lords: January 2013
http://thelordfamily.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 02, 2013. Eight years.it’s really hard for me to wrap my mind around the fact that I haven’t seen or spoken to my mother in eight years. A lot has happened in eight years.two presidential elections, two summer Olympics. Law school graduation and marriage for Russ. And to top it all off, you now have SEVEN total grandchildren. Wow! I often wonder what it would be like.we miss you so much. I grieve the memories that we didn’t have a chance to make. Posted by The Lord Family.
