Well, we got rid of Netflix. A few weeks ago, I was the subject of a brutal three-inquisitor questioning over why we don’t have cable. I had actually convinced my IT guy for a minute that we didn’t even have internet, but I told him the truth once I felt that he was ready to follow me … Continue reading
Have you heard about the letter hidden by a Chinese factory worker that was found by a woman in Wisconsin who bought some stuff from a Kmart in Oregon? You can imagine that if I found a letter like this: I would drop everything, fly immediately to China, and offer to adopt all of the factory … Continue reading
Well, friends- Nothing exciting has happened this year. Check back with us in 2013. Love, Beth and Alex I’M JUST KIDDING. Gosh, you’re just so gullible. Yesterday, our pastor made us turn to our neighbor and talk about how we would define this past year. It only took me about .2 seconds to come up … Continue reading

Hey little one- When I was growing up, this was a common occurrence in our house. The sound of my dad playing the guitar, singing old songs, is one that will stick with me forever.

Well, I laid it all out on the table last week when I said that I was done with purchasing not-fairly-made things. Big commitment. One I’m kind of excited about. I thought I would kind of give myself an easy start- you know, like buying an American-made Slinky or an American flag. Nope. There were … Continue reading
I’ve only been skiing once. It was a family trip with my youth group and we went to Copper Mountain, Colorado. And I haven’t been skiing since. Now, you should already know that I am not a natural athlete (if you have any doubts, please check here and here.) But skiing is basically controlled falling … Continue reading
God: Hey there, sister. How you doin? Beth: Well, this hasn’t been the best day. I should have listened to Alex when he told me not to read the Kindle in the bathtub. They’re skinny but those things pack a serious punch… Am I dead? No, you’re not dead. Just temporarily knocked out for a … Continue reading
