- Favorite Newspaper Article: Gulf Sees Familiar Face in Charge This NY Times article is about my dad’s first cousin, Thad Allen. We’re very proud of him!
- Favorite Children’s Bible: The Jesus Storybook Bible: Every Story Whispers His Name This book is hands-down my favorite Bible to read to my kids. It was recommended by my friend Mindy and I love, love, love it. It starts with stories in the Old Testament and works through the New Testament, but each story always ends by pointing the way to our Rescuer, Jesus Christ. Just incredible. Heck, I could use it as my own personal devotional book and get so much out of it. Who says it has to be just for kids?
- Favorite Photo-A-Day Blog: Today. My friend Jess is doing a photo-a-day project and I’m always looking forward to see what her next photo is going to be. I’m a self-proclaimed Jess-photo-blog-stalker-fan. She even has giveaways now and then so subscribe to her blog and stay tuned! Yes, she is a professional photographer based in Fort Collins, CO. Incredible talent. She’s a nurse on the side. And the dearest, kindest, sweetest person. Love you, Jess!
- Favorite Dream Concert: The Lord of the Rings at Radio City Music Hall: Howard Shore’s Complete Score Performed Live to Film. Yup, I want to be there. Fellowship of the Ring was performed last fall. The Two Towers is this fall. And Return of the King is next fall, I assume. Oh, to be there!! It’s a dream…if I had to choose, I would choose Return of the King. (Chris…hint, hint…HINT, HINT)
- Favorite Cleaning Products: Shaklee. My friend Margie turned me on to these and I had heard about them before through various blogs, but when Margie says she loves something, I take her word for it. And I love them. Love them. My cleaning is much more simplified, organic, environmentally friendly, safe (non-toxic) and smells nice and mild or not at all. Just what (my) dreams are made of. Check it out. I may write more on this later, but I fear sounding like an infomercial.
