Jim, Julie, and Jonah's Blog

I decided since Dan and Duffy have this great new blog. I would also start my own. Jonah is traveling home from college all by himself. This is his first traveling adventure on his own. I think he is enjoying his freedom. His dad always use to accompany him on all his journeys (coming and going). He is going to be a senior in college next year. He is going to Hyles-Anderson College, which is an hour away from Chicago. http://www.hylesanderson.com



Besides my only son, Jonah. I have many other interests. I love to read. I have read many books by Janette Oke http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/o/janette-oke/. She is a tremendous Christian Romance author. I have read lots of Historical books as well. One of my favorite is Undaunted Courage by Stephen E. Ambrose. I did not know how much I liked History until I was done with High School. Now I am a History buff. I love to make cards and some scrapbooking. Mostly, I make cards from scratch http://scrapingmania.myctmh.com . I also cross-stitch, but I haven't taken the time to do that in years. I love to do Sudoku puzzles and I do it at least once a day http://www.websudoku.com/. I also read through my Bible each day http://www.audio-bible.com/bible/bible.html. I have read it through a number of years. I enjoy going to and spending time at my Church. http://heritagebaptistchurchofgf.com/ HeritageBaptistChurchOnline@groups.msn.com


This was a picture that was taken of me on May 5, 2007. I was a speaker at a Lady's meeting at Fairview Baptist Church. My topic was called, "The Master's Hands of Joyfulness." I really had a great time speaking. I talked about being joyful in the times of trials.





I love teaching. I have been a teacher since September 3, 1996, for one year at Treasure State Academy. http://www.fairview4u.org/ I have been teaching at Heritage Baptist School for 9 years, since 1997. I also have worked for McDonald's restaurant as a lobby hostess during the summer and during the school year for 3 days. Life is busy, but great.



My husband Jim and I have been married for 25 years this November 26, 2007. He works at McDonalds as well. He is the maintenance man, so he starts work at 5 a.m.
