Bible + Dramatization = AWESOME!

     Not too long ago my husband ordered and downloaded the entire Alexander Scourby audio Bible. Not only was it the Bible read by A.S. but it was also the dramatized version. All I can say is awesome! It really is one of the neatest things ever.   
     The other day we were quizzing the kids with Bible questions and our son Josh knew some really major details about the the story of Joseph and I was really surprised that he had retained so much information just from reading. Then he told us that he remembered all those details because he had listened to that story months ago on the CD. The other day when we were headed down here to Carlsbad, NM from Albuquerque I listened to some of the OLD on the cd. It was way too cool and I remembered so much about it. 

    Anyhow you can go to AUDIO BIBLE and listen to a sample and I think you can even download the whole thing from there. It's well worth the money.

Wichita Kansas, and a little fun!

We finished up a great conference in Salina, Kansas with Ray Avenue Baptist Church. Pastor Day and his church made us feel so at home. Monday we headed south to Wichita to spend a few days before our meeting on Wednesday with Woodlawn Baptist.  We really enjoyed some good fellowship with Pastor Talbert. On Thursday morning we headed out at 7 in the morning to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
We arrived at the motel in Albuquerque around 6:30 pm. It's gorgeous here. The mountains are awesome!! We have been to NM before but I don't remember these mountains. I'll be snapping some photos tomorrow for sure.

While in wichita we went to Old Cowtown Museum , it was really nice. We were some of the only people there and so we got free run of the whole place. We had a great time and I snapped some pretty nice photos. Here are some of my favorites.

Hannah and her Daddy. 
I super-love this photo of Josh, it's one of my new favorites!
Our senior. He's graduating soon and I may use this one for his invitations. I love it!!

Josh was robbing the meat store in the old town, I think it was getting close to lunch time. 
Nan, sitting in one of the old homes. It was a great place to go because you could freely roam through almost all of the buildings. 
Josh was looking way too convincing in this pic. We were visiting the undertaker's home. A little eerie if you ask me. 

Cody, hanging out.
I loved this old brick and since I couldn't get my kids to lie down on it i just took a photo of the brick. I'm sure I'll use the photo somewhere. 
Joshua again! Looking innocent but don't be fooled!
The world's UGLIEST couch!
I can't believe that spring is here and none too early. I was almost giddy to see those blooms, that means winter's over right?
This was one of the first wooden church buildings in Kansas and it's so interesting because inside the floor boards are secured in place with pegs instead of nails. Pretty smart. 
Lunch time already!!
A little before dinner show from the kids. don't quit your day jobs guys!!
Just a pretty window!
Lastly sisterly love unrequited!

Anyhoo, like I said we're in Albuquerque, NM and loving the views. I'm gonna be posting some photos soon. I know you're all getting so bored with all my amateur photography but I got a new camera for Christmas so grin and bear it!!!
