Memorial Day...
I promised some pictures of yesterdays party...and here they are...Oh, and just in case you are wondering...With the help of my best friends (aka coupons!) The party only cost me $1.81 out of pocket!!! Isnt that awesome...
Day 12
STILL CLEAN!!!!!!!!Can you believe it??? We actually had a huge party, and lots of company over the weekend, and it is still clean. There were a few days that it got a little messy, but overall...it has stayed clean for 12 days. Only 9 more to go before it becomes a habit!!! It takes 21 times of doing something for it to become hab...

Sweet Fresh Rain
The wonder of rain...sweet smelling, fresh, soft, hard, beautifully created, wet, purifying, cleansing rain. I woke up this morning to a glorious sound. Rain...Nice steady rain against my window. Rain is so precious. It gives life. It cleans. It reminds us that it takes days like this to make us appreciate sun. When God flooded the earth,...

Favorite Picts...
Ok, so they are not new pictures, but I found these today and they made me smile... This picture is of Brian, Abbie, and Isaac while Bri was recouping last fall. The kids were so worried about him. One day, I came in and they were all sitting there like this watching He-Man on the tv in our room... This is of Abbie and Isaac at our Halloween trick...
You never know...
...how you might be used! On our first date, Brian failed to leave the tip for our waitress. He was so excited about the date, that he forgot (he actually did this several times when we were dating! lol) Anyhow, the poor girl was really going through a rough time. It was Christmas time, and I felt terrible. The manager of that restaraunt banked at the branch I worked at. The next day, I put $10.00 inside a Christmas Card and told this girl the story of how it was our first date and we were...
Day 5
Still clean...we had one contractor come look at the house yesterday. And got the scope of work that they will be completing. Wowsers. Kinda sad that the family room and dining room floor will not be done, but one can still hope huh? By the way...it is a beautiful day here today. Can only imagine how grander it will be in heaven...

Day 1
Just to mark my battle to overcome the messy house disease...This is DAY 1 of my victory...
Our House...is a very very very fine house...
Ok, so maybe I can find a song for every situtation in my life, but isnt that a good quality??? :) Renovation is about to finally begin!!!!! We sign the final paperwork next week and meet with the contractors on Monday (like in 3 days!!!) So, I figured it was time to start on some before pictur...

Silly Miracle...
Ok, I have been secretly praying for gas for our grill...and for weed-be-gone. Yesterday, I realized that with coupons, I am going to earn almost $40.00 at Meijer this week...should cover the propane!And Brian received a $20.00 gift card to Walmart from his work! Providing the weed stuff! YIPPPEEE for a God that cares about us eating and desires for our yard to MAGNIFY Him... instead of weeds. (which He also made, but I dont think it is very glorifying to Him in our driveway! ...
To Magnify...
mag·ni·fy : 1 a : EXTOL, LAUD b : to cause to be held in greater esteem or respect 2 to increase in significance :I am to be a magnifier of God. In Job 36:24 it says: Remember that thou magnify his work, which men behold. What a cool job huh? We are designed to point the finger at a HUGE God. We are to lead others to have a higher veiw of their Creator....

Juicy Fruit...
Am I bearing big juicy fruit? I have not figured out a way that I could present exactly what I am thinking, without offending some that might read this, so I am going to leave my post with this...My search for who I am. Who God has designed me to be. These are the basics. These are biblical principles for who He wants me to be, so that I might...
Missing Brian...
Why would I miss a man who can pull on every string in my heart and twist them into one big knot, I dont know. But, I do. I haven't gotten to spend very much time with him lately. He has been working a job outside of the church, and the church is needing strange hours out of him also. Lots of phone calls and such. His sleep schedule is messed...

Blessed Beyond Belief
Wow...What a great weekend. I am not going to write all the details, but it was wonderful. It never ceases to amaze me how God can bring women from all over the world together. How you can walk into a room and feel like you have known these girls forever. How you can feel so blessed and cherished by a lady that you might not have even recognized...
