Matt and Christy Taylor "Gentle Voice"

Hey Everyone!

I am posting a video of Matt and Christy Taylor singing a song at the Wild's. You probably haven't heard of them before, but I am sure you will like it. I just found out about their CD's not too long ago! They are really good and I hope that you will be blessed by this song as I have been! Thanks for keeping on checking my blog even though I rarely ever post anything!!! Have a wonderful day!

Matthew 11: 28-30

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Gentle Voice:

Verse 1:

Far above the noise of life there's a voice that is gently calling, leave behind your cares and strife, come to me I will give you rest.

Chorus: (1)

Bring your fear and bring your pain, bring your anger and bring your worry, do you hear the voice of Jesus gently calling come unto me.

Verse 2:

Gentle voice so meek and mild, gentle words of understanding, you are mine beloved child come to me I will give you rest.

Chorus: (2)

Bring your grief and bring your care, bring your heartaches and bring your sorrow, do you hear the voice of Jesus gently calling come unto me.

Gentle voice so full of love, gentle words so rich in mercy, you are mine beloved child, come to me I will give you rest.

Finally!!!!

Hey everybody!
I am so sorry that I have not posted in so long...... It's really bad :>(. I recently paid for a mini laptop in a deal we did at Best Buy, and it is now up and running, thanks to Auntie Jenn, and Uncle Dan for helping us!!!!!! So hopefully I will be posting more often :>). I really do enjoy this a lot!!!! Alright well I don't know where to start because so much has happened over the last 6 months..... I think I will just start with the last couple weeks, and if you check out my Sister Karissa's blog or my Brother Caleb's they have more posted, to fill in for that!!!! There links are on the left side, so go on over if you want!!!!!

So on February 12-15th we went up to Alton Bay for Winter Carnival 2010!!! We had so much fun!!!! There was plenty of snow for sledding, and snowboarding (which was AWESOME) I didn't get to do too much of that but what I did get to do was fun!!!! There was also other activities run by Ms. Robin and Mrs. J, like cookie decorating and we also all got shirts and everybody signed them with a sharpie!!! It was sooooooo cool! We got a group shot of everybody after we signed them and hopefully I will get that picture up soon!!!

Thank you soooooo much Mrs. J and Ms. Robin!!!!!!!

We did those things as well as playing games in the Dinning Hall at night, and then there was the annual Winter Carnival down front on the ice....... we did the scavenger hunt but we did not win first this year....... ABCCC also did the bed race but again did not win first this year, which was of course disappointing, but we had a lot of fun with Friends and Family which is the best thing of all!!!!! Then when we got home most of us got sick which was NOT fun...... a lot of others did as well...... but now we are "back to normal" so to speak and just trying to get things done each day and so on!!!!!!!

This past Saturday we were supposed to have a Bible quiz with our Church on books 1, 2, and 3 of Joshua, but due to the weather they ended up having to cancel it (it was in CT so like they said it probably wasn't worth getting stuck half way down there or something). So anyways we did study it and my assigned chapter was, chapter 1....... I liked studying it and I learned some new things as well. ( Like my Mom said it never hurts to study a chapter in the Bible, even if we don't end up getting to quiz on it) :P. What I am going to do is post a song by Josh Bates called
-Never give up on me- and the verse that he puts with it is from Joshua 1 so I thought it was cool!!! (Karissa did just use this song in one of the videos she posted but I figured, hey I guess it won't hurt) lol! This will be to end my post for this time, I hope that I didn't go on and on, and I hope you all have a good day today!!!!! This song has the lyrics with it too so you can look on or just listen to the words, I hope it will encourage you at least a little bit today!!!!!

Joshua 1:5
There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Pictures from Alton Bay 2009!!!

And to start of this post the day we were leaving, we went to the beach for a bit and we saw that they were closing the sandbox up so we went and asked if we could work and they let some of us do it! It was really fun! So this is Caleb, Corbin Johnson, and I standing there for a group shot :>) Thanks for taking the picture Karissa!

This was fun Dad (well actually us, some of us) got to ring the bell for some of the church services and some of us took turns doing it. So this is Corbin Johnson doing it

And this is Lukas Johnson doing it.

And this is Micah doing it.

Then this was a shot of the moon and there was a tiny star right beside it but you can't see it on here oh well. Like I said we are not to good with the camera and all it's settings yet.

Micah peeked out of the window after I took the picture below.... And he said where are the police!!! The flash was so brite he thought there were police out there!!!

This picture is of the moon and it was really pretty, but the picture doesn't show it nearly as well. We are still new to our 2 cameras

And then this is up were the fire happened, and actually now that big pileof stuff isn't there and we got to watch the fireworks for Old Home Day up there. I forgot the camera for that too :>(..... It was a really good view but it was also kind of sad thinking about all the people who used to have cottages up there and maybe would have been able to have been there if the fire hadn't have happened.... But God allows things for a reason and we can only trust Him.

This was a beautiful rainbow and it so big and it was actually double rainbow at first but by the time I got the camera it was only one. I took a bunch of different shots some up close and stuff but I choose this one for now. And this was over Beacon ave. too which was cool (where the fire was).

This is junior choir practice on one of the Saturday mornings.

This was so cute Derek and Lydia were going to go over Lydia's cottage to watch a movie, and they left and went over before Auntie Becky could even get over there and they started walking like this!!! I am glad I had the camera right there for that one!!!

Julianna and Leah wearing there matching bathingsuits!!

This also was supposed to go after those because this is the 2nd on they made, it didn't go as well as the first one did.

Ok this is step 3. So go to step one and look at them backwards.

This is step 2.

Now this is funny some kids were trying to make a volcano in the field so they made a sand pile and put some baking powder I believe in the hole and then poured on the vineger, and there is three steps so it was kind of cool. It did not over flow as much as we thought it would. Oh man there going to be backwards you think I would have figured that out by now :>(. this is step one.

Kristianna and Josiah playing behind the cottage.

Derek and Micah playing playmobile out behind our cottage.

While we were having Derek's party at our cottage I got to hold Micah Dennett, he is so cute!

Kristianna and Lydia.

We thought that this was so cute, Micah and Lydia talking or whatever they are doing!

Micah, Derek, and Lydia on the seesaw.

Kristianna, Karissa, Daniel, and Katie on the slide for a picture!

Katie and Kristianna on the slide @ the playground, in N.H.!!

Well you all have a good day!! By the way I had this post ready for a couple days now I just had to finish it up and post it.
