Ultimate Blog Party - A Little Bit About Me!

Dear UBP Visitor, welcome to my little bloggy home.  I hope you kick your feet up and enjoy A Little R & R while browsing around.  Feel free to poke into any nook and cranny that your little heart desires.  Here is a little glimpse of what you will find.
This is my 3rd UBP and I have been eagerly waiting to party again since the last one ended!

I am an American transplant from the great Pacific Northwest living in Croatia.  I've been here for nearly 9 years.  I married a Bosnian guy in 2007 and we have a 3 year old boy and an 18 month old boy.  In other words, I am the lone female in this home.


My Main Heart-throb!
Z (my heart-throb) and I are both musical people.  We love to sing - Z loves to make up new words for songs. For example, the theme song to Texas Walker Ranger: "And the eyes of the Ranger have responsibility, you must knoooooow thaaaat".  Why on earth his eyes "have responsibility" is anyone's guess. But that's Z.  The words don't have to make sense.  And that's what I love about him! Never a dull moment. 

Z plays drums and I play piano.



My Lil' Monsters!
My boys are fun and crazy.  They love each others and play so well together.  They love Tellytubbies (to my chagrin) and singing to Gaither Homecoming DVDs.



Last fall we bought our first home.  It's a 750 sq ft renovation project.  So far we've add central heating, city water, insulation on the outside (which is why it is that grey color), PVC windows, a gravel drive, and soon we will be walling in the terrace to make a giant mudroom. There are many more plans for the future. But what I'm most excited about is getting to plant my first garden this year and the half-dozen fruit trees and berry bushes we're planting!

In my spare time {haha} I have actually found time to author two ebooks and edit my dad's book!  All are available on Kindle!

But what I mostly like to blog about is what God is speaking to me from the Bible.
Next week I am starting a new series called "Beyond the Grave" - about what lies beyond The Cross.


Do you have a burning question about missions?  This summer I will blogging about the mission field.  I'll be answering questions and pulling from my own experience on the field, as well as hitting up some fellow past and present missionaries to share from their experiences as well. If you have a question - or know someone who does -simply send your question(s) to alittlerandr[at]outlook[dot]com.
You can also find me on Facebook, Google+, Twitter and Pinterest.

So, grab a cup of coffee, be a bit nosey, and click away.  And feel free to follow me.  I follow back!
