…that a cake could be “tatooed”?
Neither did I. But I know now! 
Whatever you call it, the cake looks gorgeous!

July 27th, 2010True Success
July 25th, 2010How do we measure success?
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

Who Knew Blueberry Picking Could Be So Fun?
July 21st, 2010It’s about that time of year again…the blueberries are ripe, and we’re a’pickin’!
Man who owns blueberry farm (paraphrase): “I don’t think I’ve met anyone who has as much fun blueberry picking as you guys seem to! That’s really neat. Come again!”
I guess he heard all our talk and laughter (we were probably the loudest people there!).
We picked four gallons just for our family that day, and we’ve already consumed about two of those gallons. Believe me, they won’t last over a week and a half. Not in this family!
Aren’t blueberries delicious?

Dunkin’ Donuts
July 18th, 2010All in the Willis household rejoice – A Dunkin’ Donuts has come to town!
Now, whenever our family visits, we can pick up some freshly baked bagels and delicious coffees and lattes, as generally was our tradition in New York (we lived 5 minutes from a Dunkin’ Donuts). Huzzah!

Habakkuk 3:17-19
July 16th, 2010
Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds’ feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places.
I love this verse.

The Museum
July 14th, 2010A science museum, to be exact! Those are always a lot of fun.
One morning, a couple weeks ago, we met up with a group of friends to go on a field trip together. It was an all-day outing, including our self guided museum tour, a dinner at Subway, and capping it off at the movie theater watching Toy Story3! (a great movie, by the way! we all loved it, especially since we grew up with the previous two Toy Story movies). We had a great time!
I wish I could be back in that climate controlled, extra cooled museum now; it’s super hot outside! Summer is here!

The Workshop (part 2)
July 9th, 2010I now have a floor for my workshop! I’m so excited! Of course we picked like the two hottest days of the year to work on it. It was definitely well over 100. Anyway…I’m not much of a writer, so I’ll let the pictures do all of the talking for me.
-The finished product
Many thanks to John and David for all of their help. (and being patient with us) lol

4th of July Pictures
July 7th, 2010We began our day by playing acoustic worship music for a church. We met in the national forest near a mountain stream, and even watched a baptism – it was beautiful!
Afterwards, we dropped our instruments off at home, then headed out to a party!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Independence Day! God bless America!

Beards
July 5th, 2010So I’ve been thinking about beards lately (for no particular reason of course 
) and I came across this scale of the trustworthiness of beards. I thought it was pretty hilarious.
(You have to zoom in to get a better look)
I think I’ll go with the werewolf, or the Hitler. LOL
