Don't forget what Thanksgiving is all about.

Got to go I have a TurBaconDucken in the oven!

I heard the bells on Christmas day

This is one of my favorite Christmas hymns, but I enjoy it more, now that I know a little bit more about the song. Read more here.

I heard the bells on Christmas day

(Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882), 1867)

I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

I thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

And in despair I bowed my head:
"There is no peace on earth," I said,
"For hate is strong and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men."

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
"God is not dead, nor doth he sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men."

Till, ringing singing, on its way,
The world revolved from night to day,
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, good will to men!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Here are some pictures from past and present.

No Mom doesn't have a hobby or a sport. She doesn't have girlfriends that she goes out with. She doesn't have time to talk on the phone with old friends. She don't have time to do this stuff, because she washes socks and underwear, she changes diapers, cleans house, does the shopping, runs errands and so much more. But she sees this daily routine as a part of building the Kingdom. She is happier here then she would be working a 40 hour a week job just so she can retire by age 60. She claims that she never wants to retire from her job.

And for you feminist who pitty my mom, don't. She said that she could never be happier than she is now.

Mom has five kids and most of the world says that is too many kids, but mom still prays for more. And all she can talk about are those grandkids. She can't wait till she has twenty or more grandkids!

Love ya' mom!

Purple Eye Photo Shoot

Yesterday I did a photo shoot with Purple Eye. The photos didn't turn out like I wanted, but they're still good.

Purple Eye has his own brewery business.
