He blessed our launch and completion of the Kindle book The Blessings of Visiting Grandma and Grandpa on Amazon. We were blessed with generous newspaper coverage back on the beautiful island of Saipan as well as a live radio interview that came out of nowhere.
Read More"Mommy, what are you doing?!" my sweet 10-year-old asked me. Heistheway was very shocked that I was taking pictures of our messy dining table and kitchen.
Read MoreWorking out with your family is fun! Watch Tim and his children as they exercise together. They'll do interval training with 4 stations -- pushups, rebounding, lunges, and crunches. At the end, they finish with bridges.
Read MoreThis recipe makes enough to serve another extra meal for us the next day. It works well for us for using for Sunday mornings or when we’d like a snack for that day or another.
When we’re wanting something salty and more satisfying, we’ll eat this meal with some good raw cheese or even a side of scrambled eggs.
Read MoreExercising can be a lot of fun when you exercise with your friends. Among other things, they can help push you further than you'd push yourself. They can also help keep your mind off the pain that exercise sometimes brings. You know what they say, though, "No Pain = No Gain**."
Read MoreI praise the Lord for being able to meet Jim Bob. He has encouraged me a lot through the books that he and Michelle wrote as well as through their show, 19 Kids and Counting on TLC. Hearing everything in person, though, and seeing him interact with his wife and children were so helpful.
Read MoreYou never know what type of opportunity the Lord will bring your way until you ask. We prayed for a way to be able to share hundreds of Gospel tracts in the short period of time that we would be living here. He made a way!

For years we had always wanted to go to one of Vision Forum's conferences including the Baby Conference and their San Antonio Independent Film Festival. Due to lack of funds or living overseas we haven't been able to until recently. What a blessing it was for our family to attend their wonderful Reformation of Food and Family Conference!
May this video be a blessing to all who hear it and give praise to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

These loaves were such an answer to prayer. I was desiring a rich and melting center in my mini-loaves that were soft and spongy, moist, with a good crumb.
What I like about making bread this way is that you have a lot of crust to eat as opposed to sandwich-type of loaves. It makes it great for quick bites with some yummy organic butter or fresh good quality butter.
We have a lot of photos from days of baking using various organic grains such as hard red winter wheat, spelt, and barley. I also took some short video clips to remember the process.
I liked the recipe so much that I experimented with it and used it for pizza dough. It worked out really well! Since it was so easy to put together I decided that it was a good recipe to use for the cooking show that may air this April.
As we were driving back home from our Thanksgiving (story here and here) celebration, we spotted the man we had seen walking many times in the morning and afternoons. What intrigued us the most was that he would walk along the side of the road as his two tame dogs sat on the back of the walking caribou. It's a sight you have to witness for yourself.
Read MoreWe normally stay home or travel to family member's homes to thank the Lord and celebrate Thanksgiving together. This time we thought we could do something different especially since we lived overseas.
Read MoreWe've enjoyed buying and sharing Gospel tracts from Living Waters for a few years now but have never bought this many before.
The Lord opened up more opportunities for us to get the Gospel message out during this time and we are excited about the possibilities!
May lost souls be reached and true conversion take place.

While everyone is still celebrating Thanksgiving in the U.S.mainland (aka "the states"), we here on Guam are reminiscing yesterday's special Thursday.
It was beautiful and tropical, sunny and full of life. We were blessed to have each other and most of all to have the blessings of our wonderful Creator. We loved spending those special moments together as a family and continuously seeing God's hand in our lives, even on that one day.
We kept a lot of things a secret for what we would like to try to attempt to do on Thursday. With five young children (one being an infant) our plans can quickly change due to many circumstances. We're adaptable and flexible and it's all part of the fun.
It is because of those reasons that you'll often hear us say on a daily basis "Lord willing." We cannot make promises but will do our best. We'd like to play outside but it may rain. And rain it does on Guam especially at this time of the year!
So we told the children we wanted to try to take another family photo again using our tripod and digital camera. That didn't quite work out as you'll find out later. We also told them that we may go somewhere for lunch. We had made reservations a few days ago for a free complimentary meal at the USO.
We thought that it would be something special for the children especially since all of us are far away from our extended family members. We also wanted to be a blessing to those around us, especially the single service members. That plan didn't come into it's full completion either but we did make it --- sort of. :-) I'll explain more of that soon.
If the Lord brought you here, He did it for a reason. Is your life right with God? Do you continue in your sins? We're not asking if you're a good person or if you go to church. Are you truly converted? If not, please make time today (even right now) to visit NeedGod.com
Our mission is to encourage people to love the Lord and please Him in all that they do. We also love delicious, wholesome food, and enjoy life together as a family. Here you'll find encouragement and tools to help you on your journey to a healthy, wholesome life with your family.
