James 1:27 says, “Religion that God accepts as pure and faultless is this; to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.” God desires for orphans of all nations to be loved, cared for, and adopted into Christian families-ultimately so they can become saved, and be adopted into His eternal family through Jesus Christ!

My 9 month old Nephew!
Pop's took some 9 month photos of Campbell this past weekend and this was my favorite one. We are still babysitting Campbell on Monday evenings so my sister and brother in-law can go to Bible study. We love hanging out with Campbell and watching him grow up. He is starting to let us rock him to sleep. What a big boy!
Dirt Dessert
This is seriously one of my new favorite desserts! If you need a new recipe to try this is it.
Dirt Dessert
Ingredients:
1 package (8 ounces) fat-free cream cheese
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup Domino® or C&H® Pure Cane Powdered Sugar
3-1/2 cups cold fat-free milk
2 packages (1 ounce each) sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix
1 carton (12 ounces) frozen reduced-fat whipped topping, thawed
1 package (18 ounces) reduced-fat cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
1 package (8 ounces) fat-free cream cheese
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup Domino® or C&H® Pure Cane Powdered Sugar
3-1/2 cups cold fat-free milk
2 packages (1 ounce each) sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix
1 carton (12 ounces) frozen reduced-fat whipped topping, thawed
1 package (18 ounces) reduced-fat cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
Directions: In a large bowl, beat cream cheeses and confectioners' sugar until smooth. In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes; let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Gradually stir into cream cheese mixture. Fold in whipped topping. Spread 1-1/3 cups of crushed cookies into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. dish. Layer with half of the pudding mixture and half of the remaining cookies. Repeat layers. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Yield: 20 servings.
My side notes on the recipe: I used 1/3 fat cream cheese for all 11 ounces needed. I didn't use reduced fat oreos but instead used regular oreos and took the cream out of 1/3 of the cookies before I crushed them. I also add strawberry slices when served. Yum!
High Desert Museum
A couple weekends ago we went to Madras to visit Trav's parents. On Saturday we went to the High Desert Museum in Bend, OR. I had a lot of fun exploring. Here are a few of the pictures I took while we were there.
I liked this water pump.

My mom loves chickens so I took this picture for her.
Crazy to think what limited cooking supplies they had.
Tools in a bowl, what else do you need?
Travis is pretending to brush his teeth. I am so thankful for running water!
What a small living room. At least there is a table for games!
Someone made a comment about the gun storage place so I was documentning the idea.
