Blog Name Change
Hello Friends!
The Wood family has a new blog name as you might have noticed. Since we were no longer on property we thought AB-Ranch wasn't an accurate description of where we were at the moment. After much discussion the children came up with this name, "Bought with a price." as a reminder to us that no matter where this journey in life takes us we should remember that we have been bought with a price we are not our own. It is our desire to live each day for His purpose not our own! The children came up with other names and voted on them. The winner, Elisha, gets to make cookies with mommy tomorrow and since Sammy was his helper... Sammy gets to pick which cookies we make! It was fun coming up with a blog name that represents the entire family. We will continue sharing our lives with you and the good work the Father continues to do in our lives. We hope you all know how much you mean to the Wood family. We consider your friendship priceless! If any of you should ever find yourself in Kansas know that we will always have room for you!
Oh, and something that my Joe mentioned the other day.... we use to live in the exact center of CA. Now we live in the center of the United States! Fun!!!
On behalf of the entire Wood family....
Mrs. Joseph Wood

Posted by Titus2Woman I'm new to your blog and look forward to reading what you have to say.
May I ask you something... and please tell me it's none of my business, if you wish. :-) But what would cause a family to move 16 times in 17 years? My roots run deep on my land... and I'm wondering what would cause a family to never really put down any roots?
Our former neighbors were Salvation Army captains so they moved every 2-3 years... so maybe you're in the ministry or your husband is in the service or something?
God bless you in your new state and home~ Andrea

Posted by fcusick I am so glad you are finally in your new home. What a great adventure. I was born in Topeka Kansas and moved when I was 1 - my Dad was in the Air Force. I have never been there since!

Sunday, July 20, 2008 - New Blog Name - New Home - Beautiful Family
Posted by WildThings It is inspiring how you describe changing your blog name - why and how. Reading of your new home and your attitude and how it has affected your children is encouraging to me as we have moved alot as well. I did not know we could change our blog name but it is nice to know we can if we feel a need to. Your writings make me want to call you and ask if my family can come to visit. Thanks for writing - the encouraging words are reaching out to many others. May the Lord continue to bless and lead you. May I remember we are 'bought with a price'.
Sincerely,
Michele Petit
