Ryland wanted to make good and sure he didn't miss any ice cream!

Keeleigh (finally!) added another tooth to her lost teeth collection. It has been loose for two months and finally fell out while she was brushing.

A while back one of the boys knocked over Jackie's mother's Christmas cactus and a piece broke off. I stuck it down into some soil and now it's flourishing!

Part of Keeleigh's house that she built broke after our shelf collapsed earlier this week and Jathan got to play tornado and destroy the rest of it. He said that the people weren't there, though, which is so indicative of his personality. He's a rough and tough little destroyer like most boys but has a heart of gold filled with mercy.

Back before Christmas Jathan took something from the kitchen (I had long forgotten what) and this week we got to find out what it was! Beans!

Jathan ripped a hole in one of his jeans and I was actually happy about it because it gave me the opportunity to try out a cute repair job that I'd seen on Pinterest months ago. I love it!

Ryland and Jathan joined a few friends in celebrating Dr. Seuss's birthday today. Jathan was VERY disappointed when he discovered Dr. Seuss wasn't actually there but Ryland remained cheerful as he worked on making a Cat in the Hat hat with his partner in crime, LeeAnna.

5 Reasons I Should Stay Off Facebook

1. TMI So, I remember the weirdest things but one brief conversation I had over 10 years ago stands out to me. It was high school and like all high school girls I had friends, enemies, and frienemies. One of my then-frienemies (we've grown up since then!) was friends with one of my enemies. Standing by the lockers one day, frienemy walks up and says in reference to enemy something like, "She shares too much information. Sometimes it's almost like, 'Hey, guys. I just farted.'" Of course, at the time I ate this up and laughed at her expense but over the years it's been a little reminder that more often than not I need to shut up. Just shut up. I've often been tempted (and have too often given in to the temptation) to over share. I think the Internet feels far safer than it really is. I need to remember that. 2. Friends...or Stalkers? Speaking of "friends", I have 321 of them. I know that number is much higher for many of you, but

Combs Christmas Tour

Ryland says, "Welcome to our home!" Would you like to see all of our Christmas decorations? Check out our door decoration. We saw something like it at Trees and Trends and upon checking the price tag thought, "I could totally do that." = ) We think it looks great beside our sled, you know, just in case of snow! C'mon inside. Next to our door we plugged in a cute little tree that we got on our Thanksgiving trip to Alabama. It used to sit on our porch when we lived there. Now it hangs out next to our baker's rack where we have our one and only Nativity (I laughed to myself when Dr. Jackson said at church this Sunday that everyone has them all over the house.) We have more of a snowman collection around here. If you look in our kitchen you might notice our snowman rug. After you catch a load of our new Frosty fridge, that is! (Thank goodness for Pinterest!) There are reindeer prancing on our coffee table. Just past the co

Why We're Moving to ALASKA

8 years ago at around this time Jackie was graduating from seminary after 5 years of being in New Orleans. We were excited and full of hope. It felt like after years of preparation our lives were now going to REALLY begin!  The seminary had hosted a sort of ministry fair for students to meet with representatives from across the United States. Jackie talked to me about which state representatives he’d like to talk with as we planned our perfect life out in our heads (HA!). He mentioned Alaska which I quickly vetoed; we thought it would be lovely to live near the mountains somewhere out west—maybe Colorado? Montana? However, I went back and told him to talk to the Alaska guy if he wanted to because I didn’t think it was right that I should tell him no. I don’t remember all the states he inquired about that day. I remember him bringing home a memo pad that said West Virginia on it, and I remember him talking ALL ABOUT ALASKA.  Now when God speaks to me I unfortunately do not have a light
