A Brand New Year!

December 31, 2009 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

It is well known amongst my friends and family that I’m not fond of winter. Yes, that is an understatement. You can keep your snow; I’ll take warm and sunny. Thank you very much. However, despite the fact it occurs during winter, I do like the start of a new year. A whole twelve months…

Christmas Pictures…

December 30, 2009 By Deanna Piercy 1 Comment

I didn’t take nearly as many Christmas pictures this year as I usually do. I’m especially sad that our church Christmas Eve service had to be canceled due to “Oklahoma Blizzard ’09” because we have a long tradition of taking a family photo after the service while we are all dressed up. Ah, well…perhaps we…

Menu Plan Monday…

Click graphic above for more menu ideas. I bravely stepped on the scale this morning. I knew it would be bad but figured it was time to face the music following the Christmas feasting. Yeah. About what I expected. Back to daily treadmill and Wii Fit time, as well as more moderate eating. Sigh… Monday:…

Boxing Day…

December 26, 2009 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

Chris and Malory on Christmas morning. It’s a family tradition to decorate the cat. Someone on an unschooling e-mail list I’ve belonged to for over a decade was asking for more information about Boxing Day. We have list members in England, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, all of which observe this holiday to one degree…

White Christmas…

December 25, 2009 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment

These pictures don’t look like much but you should have seen the blizzard conditions yesterday. Oklahoma basically shut down. It was not a pretty sight for people trying to travel in it but today? Well, at least the sun is shining and our house is warm. Now, how many more days until Spring? This is…

Christmas Eve…a poem

December 24, 2009 By Deanna Piercy 2 Comments

Hope, peace, joy and love I wrote the following poem back in 2003 for my annual Christmas letter. It was inspired by our church’s beautiful, candlelight Christmas Eve services. Christmas Eve byDeanna Piercy Stars pierce the fabric of the night skyand steeple lights point the way.Wrapped snug in velvet and woolwe come in anticipation…and hope….

Live your faith…

December 23, 2009 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

I keep hearing a lot of hoopla about the “war on Christmas” and how people/businesses/government are trying to “take Christ out of Christmas”. Personally, I think God’s big enough to take care of Himself and quite honestly, I haven’t encountered anything of the kind. What I have seen, however, are Christians not living out their…
