It's time

Ecclesiastes 3:1

"To everything there is a season,
and a time to every purpose under the heaven"

Our Ecclesiastes:

A time to house hunt and screech to a halt in front of these signs [much to the dismay of my kids]

And a time to refrain from blogging and checking any websites that are not Utahrealestate.com.


A time to be grateful for the husband's job and promotion,

and a time to learn how to manage at dinner without the husband.


A time to hold back sniffles

And a time to hold back giggles


A time to back up computer files [oops...that time was actually two weeks ago]

and a time to be grateful for computer geek friends. [Really grateful.]


A time to put away chocolate and make lots of trips to Dad's orchard

[Your photo still makes me drool, Kelly S.]

And a time to ignore the dishes and go outside with the kids

[Because you might find them outside painting themselves with your fabric paints.]

I love the poetic flow...as well as the thoughts behind it.

A time to post, to stop me from leaving annoying comments AND to be grateful you have the pictures to post... I'm glad My Pictures was rescued from the virus. I still can't believe Sage is in kindergarten.

Whoa!!! on the promotion and house hunting! May your house hunting be short and land you with a super cute house with non-condom parks around! I can not believe your little Sage is in school now?!

Emily said...

Glad to hear from you! So exciting that you're house hunting, I wish you much success and an enjoyable 8,000 Obama first time home buyer tax break (we're getting it too!) Just make sure you're in and close by Dec. 1st!
Kindergarten for Sage, I would love to her teacher! Although the thought of teaching kindergarten repels me! and any other teaching for that matter! Anyhow enjoy this "season"!

Miriam Stay said...

YEAH!! Happy for you we are, and hope Sagers loves her kinder experience!!

I wish I could've flown out for the orchard season again. My pictures make me drool too.
The season of school is AWESOME! After next summer you'll totally understand.
Good luck with the house hunting. I would love to fly out and help with that. How fun!

Congrats on the promotion! I'm sure this next chapter in life will be just as entertaining (for us) as the last!

Jamie and Erin said...

Congrats on everything! Such wonderful changes are happening!

Sage...in Kindergarten? Holy Cow. So when is it a time to come visit family (and maybe a friend) in Las Vegas?

I'm glad the time for refraining from blog posting is over . . . at least I hope it is! I've missed your hilarious posts!
