I love lists! Lists of what I have accomplished during the year, shopping lists, camping lists, book lists, lists of what I’ve spent (although sometimes that kind of list is not so loveable!)
Last year I posted a list of all the books that I read that year, and so I thought I would do it again this year.

Hope you enjoy! Did you make a list? Comment and let me know…I would love to see it!
I like your pictures. Do you like Hello Kitty? The parakeets are my brothers, Samuel.
I also read 90 Minutes in heaven this year. I found it to be very encouraging and it got me more interested in the subject of heaven. I'm thinking of following up with Randy Alcorn's Heaven later this year.
Blessings,
Kate
That one was very encouraging to me, too! Though of course I was looking forward to heaven before, it made me <i>really</i> look forward to it all the more! And something kind of funny…I always wondered whether the streets of gold were a gold color, or clear, since here on earth (I have heard) pure gold is transparent. Well, when he said that it looked just like a street paved with gold bricks I thought "Aha! I have my answer!" : D
And I didn't know that Randy Alcorn did a book on heaven, too! Mommy read his "Treasure Principle" book and that sounded very good! I will definitely have to check out his one on heaven.

Hi Jessica,
I see you're still spelling it Miss Billie. Will you never learn :). It's miss Billy remember :).
I just had to tease you about it again!
KD
Silly me! I guess that the other way seems more feminine : D I will have to go fix that!
Jessica
Ha, ha, Jessica, I beat you! 😀 Just teasing you, but I did read more books than you this year. 😀 I'm sure yours were overall much more worthwhile, though. 🙂 And you probably read more pages than I did. 🙂
So KD and Jessica, is it really "Miss Billy"? Or were you just teasing? I know you were teasing, but which is it really?
Loved the list!
God bless,
DB 🙂
…Billy instead of Billie : D I keep getting her name wrong and KD has corrected me many times : D Hee, hee!
Aw! Not fair that you read more than me! JK! Did you beat KD? : D
Jessica
Hey!
I just finished reading "Facing The Giants"! Great movie and a great book.
Later! ~ Baby Girl
