Gun laws for dummies

Sounds logical to me.

I know the argument against background checks is that the government doesn’t need to be all up in my bid’ness and it will just lead to a national gun registry.

But the government tracks a 100 other things we buy every day and no-one throws a fit about it. Just seems logical that we should have simple background checks before guns are purchased.

Will a background check keep every bad guy from getting a gun? Nope.

Will a background check ensure that everyone who works with kids are good guys? Nope.

Will a background check ensure that you’ve been honest about everything you told your new employer? Nope.

But it will stop some – and that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

You can sign the petition to tell Congress to Finish The Job by applying background checks to ALL gun sales. Sign the petition today at http://bit.ly/17j5mrG

A blessed weekend

As I shared on Facebook earlier – we had a wonderful weekend celebrating a dear friend’s birthday on Friday night, celebrating my sister’s adoption of two amazing kids yesterday and then taking part in their dedication on Sunday.

Each of the events were great reminders that I’m blessed with amazing friends and family and have so much to give thanks for.

I wasn’t able to take as many photos as I would have liked at any of the events but I do have a few videos and photos from Aaron’s party Friday night.
