Happy Birthday, Mom!

February means it’s time to celebrate Mom’s birthday! We watched some old home videos which gave us a little appreciation for what Mom (and Dad) went through in all the years raising all of us kids – we were an active bunch! We’re thankful for Mom, and look forward to the seeing the ways God…

Winter Snap

January in New England is typically snowy. This year our winter has been warm with icy snaps of arctic air in between. Our first real winter storm brought soggy snow that turned into rain and iced every tiny branch with glacier beauty. We reveled in the sparkling wonderland in the day and glistening moonlight at…

New Years & Gingeropolis

It’s hard to believe it’s 2019 already! We were thrilled to have Daniel home for Christmas break – we had a great week together as a family! Christmas Day found us playing our now-traditional football game after opening presents in the morning. Matthew, N’gella & Susanna battled against Carolyn, Lydia and Daniel with Jonathan as…

October in CT and QC

We began October with a major highlight – the WIHS Radio Station annual banquet. This year was extra special because the speaker was Ken Ham, president of Answers in Genesis and founder of the spectacular Creation Museum and the world-class Ark Encounter. We have been so blessed by the solid, Biblical teaching of Answers in Genesis…

It was a lovely day for the walk, and we enjoyed our time!Part of the group Jonathan and our friend, Michael The weather was beautiful! After we got home from the Walkathon, some of us went apple picking at…

We’re Patriots

We’re Patriots. No, we’re not part of the NFL team, the Patriots. We’re not even die-hard Patriots fans. This week we recognized Patriot Day on September 11th. In our family, we individually took time that day to remember the tragedy that occurred against our country in 2001. We did a patriotic concert on Wednesday. Webster’s…
