The Stations of the Cross



Blessings to you at Easter! I wanted to share a beautiful video that my dear son Philip made of his little brother Anthony's class performing the Stations of the Cross in shadow play. It was very touching, the fifth graders were wonderful- what a great Easter gift to their parents!

Three Wonderful National Parks

Well, let's try this blogging idea again! That was one big break!

This year we have been lucky enough to visit three of our wonderful National Parks! First, a weekend trip to Utah and wonderful Zion and Bryce National Parks- both breathtaking beautiful! The next a "day" trip to Death Valley. Do you call 5:30 am Sunday to 12:30 am Monday a day trip? :) It was certainly a long day but well worth the trip- so many interesting land features from huge salt flats to the "Artist's Palette", canyons that look as if they were splashed with different colors of chalk! We had never been to any of these parks and yet we live so close! It's true- some times we don't appreciate the things that are right in front of us.
hmmmmmm... I wonder which park we will get to explore next?
