Mid-week gratitude

We've been home from Utah for nearly a week now. Things aren't quite back to normal yet, but we're getting back into the swing of things...which means I should blog before one more day goes by!

The painting is one that Darren's grandma painted years ago and we digitized while in CO. There's pics from our Christ...
