life is good

we've been busy but such is life when school gets rolling and activities start happening and the holidays come peeking around the corner. i love love love this time of year. LOVE! so i'll just post a couple of pics from our recent happenings....we had our family pics taken by a wonderful friend of mine who is extremely talented and then last night we went to haunt the zoo.

the venable's are doing good. we are blessed by the Lord. so blessed that i'm often without words to express my thankfulness. of course there are things we are working on and things that i pray will get better, but overall, i have to say, the Lord has blessed us abundantly.

Colossians 2:6-7 (the message)
My counsel for you is simple and straight forward: just go ahead with what you've been given. You received Christ Jesus the Master; now live Him. You're deeply rooted in Him. You're well constructed upon Him. You know your way around the faith. Now do what you've been taught. School's out; quit studying the subject and start living it. And let your living spill over into thanksgiving.

love it!
