Eye of the Tiger (Glasses for Glory Remix)

Here’s a little something from Josh.  He loves to sing some of the songs on Guitar Hero and that’s where he picked up this classic number.

An update from Josh

Dear Daddy,

I just wanted to let you know how much fun I have been having in Ontario. On Monday, I had an easter egg hunt at Grandma & Grandpa’s house – I had to go ALL over the house looking for chocolate! Then, Mommy and I went to Newmarket and saw Grammy, Auntie Tracy, Ethan, Landon, Jared, and later i got to see Uncle Odel as well. We went bowling and played hard! (so hard that my cousin Jared went flying off the swings and hurt himself – but he seemed okay later on)

I also visited with Grandpa John, Grandma Joanne, Uncle Adam and Auntie Lindsay. I’m not too sure about that dog Max though… he kept wanting to lick me and i think he thought Perry the Platypus would make a good chew toy. He was pretty cute though!

on Tuesday, i went to the Toronto Zoo with Grandma, Mommy, and Uncle Jon – Uncle Jon took the whole day off from work to see me! After, we went to Uncle Jon’s house where Grandpa met us, and we went to Swiss Chalet for dinner. I saved my extra french fries to feed the squirrels in the backyard at Grandpa & Grandma’s house. After dinner, we went to a big fish store where we got some hermit crabs for Uncle Jon’s really super-cool fish tank. He has fish that look like Nemo!

on Wednesday, i hung around with Grandma and Grandpa. Mommy went out for Chinese food with her friend Angela – i wanted to go with her, but i thought i would stay home and eat peanut butter sandwiches instead. At night, i met a new cousin named Ava! She turned 2 on Wednesday and we had candles on tiny cupcakes for her. We played together and had fun while Mommy visited with her cousins Melanie and Andrea.

This morning i went on a looooong train ride on the subway – it was fun! I sat in the first seat in the front car and looked out the window a lot. I’ll update you some more later – i’m having lots of fun, but i do miss you a lot.

love,
Josh

Do you ever wonder what your pastor's wife is thinking?

well, do you? if you’re curious, go here and watch the videos. there are 3 of them, so it might take awhile. i’ve watched the first one, and i’m not ashamed to say it made me cry, because i’m a pastor’s wife and i identify so strongly with some of those feelings.

i’m glad that Beth Moore is reaching out to ministry wives with her conference – being married to a pastor can sometimes be a very lonely existence. things like this make a difference.

Magnificent

one of the more exciting experiences of my life so far was the chance i had to go and see U2 live in concert. they are so incredibly amazing live. i’ve been a fan since i was 12, and i’m excited that they have a new album out. just wanted to say that.

The Hockey Song

a fellow Canadian transplant posted this on her facebook page recently… and i just had to post it here. i love this song – Stompin’ Tom was just a pretty cool guy, and the footage of NHL hockey pre-helmet rules is totally foreign to me!
