Happy Spring!




It's now officially spring! Technically, it wasn't yet spring when we took these photos, but it felt more like spring! Cold has moved in but that just makes us appreciate the warm weather even more.

These photos were taken at the National Arboretum on Saturday. Ben took the first two and Phyllis the third. We hope you enjoy them.

May God bless you this springtime and always!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!


In honor of St. Patrick's Day, we thought we'd share some Irish blessings with you.


May the road rise to meet you.

May the wind be always at your back.

May the sun shine warm upon your face.

May the rains fall soft upon your fields.

And until we meet again,

May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.




May the light always find you on a dreary day.
When you need to be home, may you find your way.
May you always have courage to take a chance,
And never find frogs in your underpants.

May your doctor never earn a dollar out of you,

May your heart never give out,

May the ten toes of your feet steer you clear of misfortune.

And before you're much older,

May you hear much better blessings than this.


In case you are interested in the real history behid St. Patrick's Day, here is a link to today's excellent Breakpoint commentary on the Christian hero we celebrate today: click here.

May God bless you!

US National Arboretum




What an incredibly beautiful day! 70 degrees and beautiful blue skies. We went to the US National Arboretum to walk today and it felt like spring.

Ben took the first two pictures and Phyllis took the third. We hope you enjoy them!

May God bless you!

Inside a Tulip


Here are two different views of the same tulip (on two different days). Ben, super husband that he is, bought Phyllis the tulips. Phyllis took the photos. Which of the two photos do you like best?

May God bless you!
