Big Dipper

Ok, I know it's been way too long since my last post. I was swamped with "log" work last week, as well as the usual stuff like AWANA, MOMS group, piano lessons, tutoring, and then scrapbooking at church all weekend. Thankfully I have an amazing husband who was so helpful with watching the girls while I got my work done and then even let me scrapbook all weekend. And I did get my sister's graduation scrapbook done, which was a relief.

I don't have many new pictures, but I thought I'd make a plug for my favorite ice cream shop Big Dipper. I LOVE ice cream, it's probably my favorite food. It's a little "mom and pop" ice cream shop in Blaine, near Hwy 65 and Main St. They make their own ice cream and it's delicious. We took Emily there on her birthday (after her dinner of choice at McDonalds). As you can see the girls got my love of ice cream.

P.S. If you know our friends Jon and Laurie, they had "Megan Grace" this morning :) Everyone is doing great.

Congrats to Jon and Laurie! Thanks for passing on the news.; April 28, 2009 at 9:08 AM
Stephanie Brandt said...: Ha ha, yes, Emily got mint chip (actually it was mint Oreo, I think) and Bri got strawberry. Yes, all my favorites :); April 28, 2009 at 10:40 AM
Margaret said...: If Bri got strawberry, where is it? Did she eat all of her strawberry before starting on your cookies and cream? Bri, hmmmm.; April 28, 2009 at 8:53 PM

"Heart's Cry" Lyrics

This is my heart's cry
I want to know the one who saved me and gave me life
This is my heart's cry to be so close to Him that all my life becomes
A testimony of my Savior's grace and love
This is my heart's cry

This is my heart's cry
Much more than just a great desire - it's like a fire in me
I hear my heart cry each time I think about the cross where Jesus died
The cross should have been mine but His love broke through time
And heard my heart's cry - he heard my heart's cry

Now every other hope and dream is lost inside of this one thing
To know the one who died for me and live my life for Jesus Christ
Is my heart's cry

So let my life become a testimony of my Savior's grace and love
Oh - this is my heart's cry - to stand before the Father one day
And hear Him say well done - this is my heart's cry

"One Heartbeat at a Time" lyrics

You're up all night with a screaming baby
You run all day at the speed of life
And every day you feel a little bit less
Like the beautiful woman you are

So you fall into bed when you run out of hours
And you wonder if anything worth doing got done
Oh, maybe you just don't know
Or maybe you've forgotten

You, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh, you, you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell
How you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time

With every "I know you can do it"
Every tear that you kiss away
So many little things that seem to go unnoticed
They're just like the drops of rain over time
They become a river

And you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh, you, you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell
How you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time

You're beautiful
You're beautiful
How you're changing the world
You're changing the world
You, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh, you, you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell
How you, you are changing the world
Oh, I believe that you
You are changing the world
One little heartbeat
At a time
And you're changing the world
