We are moving to a sweet townhouse in the Garden Court community off Hydraulic Road which is near the split between Hydraulic and West Rio Road. The address is Charlottesville, Virginia though it's technically in ... http://ellenrebekah.com/428 Friday, November 7 we took Sara Ellen to the Altman's and joined them for dinner before heading to Richmond. We stayed overnight with Tim's mother and then had a shorter drive west to Charlottesville. Saturday, November 8 we had four viewings scheduled at properties for rent. Each was unique ... http://ellenrebekah.com/426 I have been attending a Bible Study (short term disciple class) called Invitation to Psalms. It's been good (though I am occassionally at the brunt of youth jokes, it's not like I'm a teen!). Part of tonight's exercise was to write our own lament. At first I ... http://ellenrebekah.com/423 While Tim called my final project "a nice 1st attempt for a project so complicated", I'm not very satisfied with my jacket.

During worship on Sunday we said [a version of] the prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi. ... http://ellenrebekah.com/403 I was listening to Sarah McLachlan "Surfacing" today and heard "Do What You Have To Do". It seemed the perfect song for Edward and Bella, maybe New Moon. Do you think it sounds more like Edward, or Bella? What ravages of spirit conjured this temptuous rage created you a monster broken by ... http://ellenrebekah.com/400 The more I read of Genesis, the more I am amazed by all the deceit. Now I have read about Jacob and Esau. Jacob steals the birthright (?) and Isaac's blessing from his older brother and his mother is in on it. After Jacob steals the blessing, ... http://ellenrebekah.com/393 I breezed through Twilight for the second time. I hadn't meant to so soon, probably not until closer to the movie, but I was hanging out with Sara Ellen in my parent's room and a copy was there so I started. I put it down but I bought ... http://ellenrebekah.com/388 We reach another milestone with Sara Ellen tomorrow. She will be attending sunday school for two year olds at Calvary.
