Springtime, Part 2

Playing catch-up with all the photos today! This = my view of the capitol from my parking space at the Will Rogers Building, going into work for day 2 of a protest hearing at the OCC!

Spent a full Saturday test driving cars and discussing future finances with Triston Michael!

Jaceman has discovered that he's a big fan of grilled chicken (progress!), and he cooked it for all of us at our last family dinner!

Exceptional movie on the friendship between Reverend George Whitefield and Ben Franklin.

I love this period of history!

"I have lived, sir, a long time. And the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth: that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured, sir, in the Sacred Writings that "except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it." I firmly believe this. And I also believe that without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the Builders of Babel... I therefore beg leave to move that henceforth prayers imploring the assistance of Heaven and its blessings on our deliberations be held in this assembly every morning before we proceed to business..."

~Ben Franklin to the Constitutional Convention

(They voted for it, and that continues to this day, where we need it more than ever!)

Left that movie in pouring rain... made it home 10 minutes before tornado sirens... stayed in my shelter for about 20 minutes... very grateful to say all was well!

Random fun meme! =)

I "co-hosted" the belated brunch baby shower for Paige Evelyn with Debbie Robinson yesterday! She and her daughter, Taylor, did most of the work. I made the FB event and brought the Chick-fil-A. lol It was at Debbie's house, which was lovely, and we had lots of great food from Panera, CFA, Ludgers, Cookie Mama, and the donut shop!
