Divine Romance


The fullness of Your grace is here with me
The richness of Your beauty's all I see 


The brightness of Your glory has arrived
In Your presence God, I'm completely satisfied


For You I sing I dance
Rejoice in this divine romance 


Lift my heart and my hands
To show my love, to show my love  


A deep deep flood, an Ocean flows from You
Of deep deep love, yeah it's filling up the room 


Your innocent blood, has washed my guilty life
In Your presence God I'm completely satisfied



Over the mountains and through the woods...

to Gram's house we go!

my mom, Joshua, Asher, and i took a little trip to see Gram.

 traveling and hotel-staying with a toddler and newborn weren't the easiest, 
but what a blessing it is to see Gram love on her newest GREAT-GREAT-grandson and laugh with her Joshie!

Gram pushed Asher around on her walker and showed him off to all her friends and neighbors. 
Asher flashed that newborn grin for her more than anyone!

we threw bread (and rocks) to the fishies and saw a deer and 2 fawns. 

we ate fried chicken and ice cream at Uncle Jerry & Aunt Sue's 
Josh played in the mud, explored their garden and got scared of the chickens. 

we love our Gram!

about to explode...

{bah this no internet/ 10 year old computer thing is really putting a damper on my blogging. i kind of hate that}

sometimes it is hard for me to find the right words.

i'm not very good at telling stories of explaining things in person.

i say like a lot.

stuff makes sense in my head. but not coming out of my mouth.

sometimes you would think i was thinking in spanish and speaking in english.

seriously it's that bad.

and then i look at this baby...

and then look at this man...

and i'm sure my heart is going to explode.

it might sound cheesy.

it's the only words i can find.

or maybe there are no words.

just prayers of thankfulness.

seriously. THANK YOU LORD:
for your provision.
for smiles.
and giggles.
and holding hands tight.
for laughter.
for a good night's sleep.
a happy boy.
a happy momma.
a happy daddy.
a family with TOO much love and TOO many kisses for one little boy.
for a Kma who always says the right thing.
for sunny days and walks with my boy.
for 30 days of shredding ;).
the possibility of a new year.
music in the dark.
everything we could never imagine.
all God's grace raining down on this family of three.

Tuesday Thoughts

Well, a little diversion on Tuesday Thoughts... look back on March. Like every other month it went by quickly. Towards the end of the month we were even busier than normal. We took one Saturday and drove up to Fort Collins to be with our friends Jason and Shauna and their perfect baby girl, Evelyn. Had a picnic at Poudre Valley Canyon and just enjoyed a relaxing day together. The next Sunday, I took all the Clark girls to Disney Princesses on Ice! O my, it was so fun. Like always Disney was impressive and did such a great job. It was truly great :)
Kacy and Halee :)
Even though they were fighting colds they put on their smiley faces and enjoyed the evening


Halee and Reesie watching those princesses!



And then we got home and Siah put on my BOY shoes :)



I seriously LOVE this family. Am so blessed by each and every one of them. Am so thankful God has placed them in windy Colorado to be our friends! Am so happy I got to give.

Because giving is always better than receiving...


The next weekend Manny and I took two days to go Over the Mountains
and Through the Woods to Gram's House We Go
My Wonderful, Wonderful Great Gram! She turns 93 next month!

Soon after we go there my great-Uncle Jerry picked us all up to head to historic Ridgway and Ouray.

We ate at a super cute, tiny place in Ridgway called Kate's Place.

Manny had the BEST FRENCH DIP OF HIS ENTIRE LIFE!!!!!


The historic library in Ouray


Stopped in at the Beaumont Hotel. Est. 1886. Restored in 2003.

Also, in Ouray they have a world famous Ice Climbing festival! Here are the cliffs of ice people climb for fun! Ha!


Manny didn't appreciate the heights so much...


There is also a hot springs in Ouray. The hot underground water keeps this baseball field green all year long!
Loved seeing all the baby cows :)


But mostly loved spending time with my Gram :)


That's all for today. Sorry. Post. So. Long.
