Is Huckabee a Liberal?

We have been great supporters of Mike Huckabee since he was only at 2% in the polls. I like his debating ability and straight answers when other candidates try to dodge the questions. I agree with his stands on the issues.
Lately I have heard so much talk of how Mike Huckabee is a liberal. I have even heard that Rush Limbaugh stated that the Republican party is going to be destroyed if Huckabee or McCain get the nomination. McCain is a terrible candidate and this I know.
However I have not been able to find out why Huckabee is being called a liberal. If anyone out there can explain to me why Huckabee is such a liberal and why McCain, Romney, or Paul are better candidates, I would greatly appreciate an explanation. I am tired of people labeling him a liberal. I want real examples to prove that he is liberal and real reasons why others are more conservative.

Babysitting

I love the look on Ryleigh's face in this picture! She saw me taking her picture & since she couldn't see my face she thought I was hiding, so she was trying to peek around the camera.

This girl really knows how to eat. She was up watching me cut up tomatoes & helped herself to almost a whole tomato. That was besides a bunch of Trix cereal.

March for Life 2008

We were able to take some of our church youth to the March for Life in Washington DC this year. We shared the experience with Penn View's civics class. We rode in the Penn View coach to the event. It was a great experience for our youth. There were thousands of people there to protest abortion. We heard many speakers including Ron Paul, Sam Brownback, and the brother of Terri Schiavo. This is a great opportunity to see that the pro-life movement is strong and passionate about defending life. It was very empowering to be there!!!

Defending life is fun!

One voice of thousands.

The march was packed with pro-lifers. Many people in the offices around the march were watching as the masses creeped by their windows. We never thought we were going to get to the end.

This was an answer to prayer because we are going to be moving next month & I really wanted to get some things for our house. I had the gift cards but I really wanted to stretch them as far as possible since there are always a lot of extra expenses when you move. It was awesome to be able to keep adding things to my cart because needed these things & had the money for it, for a change. I think now I know what it is like to be high! :)

$25 worth of stuff for $.15


I have been shopping at cvs for a few months now & wanted to show you just a little of what I have been getting. It does take a little planning & research to find the good deals and the good coupons, but it is not really that hard & it is a lot of fun to see how much you can get! Right now I think this is my #1 hobby. If you want more info on how I do it go here.

Alicia's Leaving :(





We have really been enjoying having my sister, Alicia here from GBS. We are going to miss her when she leaves.

New Furniture




We finally bit the bullet & got new furniture. I am so picky that I am surprised that I found something that I really love.
