Floatin' the ditch



One of the many benefits of living in the country! Floatin' the ditch (irrigation ditch that is!!!)

Swamp Tours


We went on a swamp tour. People actually live in these houses miles from land...the average age of the swamp people...86 years! Cajun Jack here was our guide and was quite the comic relief!

A Week of No Wiping

Did I mention that we left our kids with Grandma's & Grandpa's for the week. I did miss them but I did not have to wipe anyone's nose, face, hands, or bottoms for a whole week! Bliss!

Lousiana Mission Trip


We just returned from a mission trip to Lousiana! It was quite the experience! I felt a little bit guilty calling it a mission trip because I had such a great time...although the humidity certainly should qualify as some sort of suffering for Jesus! We took the high school youth group and they all loved it also. They were a great group to have on a trip like this and I really enjoyed watching God work in and through them!!!

Finally a new post!!!

Yes, ladies & gents the moment you've all been waiting for...a new post on Colburn Comedy!

Silver Egg Championship


Micah on the other hand is the epidomy of competition, energy, & sports. No matter what we are doing he can turn it into a race, or sporting event of some kind. Take for example the Easter Egg Hunt...he was not in the slightest bit interested in nicely picking up easter eggs and sticking them in his basket...he knew that if he found the gold or silver egg first, then he would get a prize. So while all the other nice little boys and girls are peacefully picking up eggs and putting them in their baskets...Micah is RACING around the small section of grass designated for his age group and frantically searching for that Gold or Silver egg. He occasionally picked up an egg (purely for the candy factor) but he was intent on one thing and one thing ONLY! And his hard work paid off...He has successfully found the gold or silver egg for three years in a row! No one else even knew that the competition was so stiff...or that this even was a competition but Micah has no doubt.

Easter Program

Alysha is quite the character. her performance in the Easter program epitimizes her personality. She sometimes walks around the house singing her conversations and dancing to emphasize her point.

Budding Star!
