Vacation Bible School

We have had VBS this week @ church! And honestly I wasn't that excited about it...but by night 2 my attitude was changing...and night 3 was awesome...my sister and i taught the bible lesson that night....tonight...night 4 was a little of a challenge for me! I helped in the preschool class and that's where my kids are! They invited their cousin so they thought they needed to act crazy....that's why I was asked to stay in there tonight! But you know...honestly I love all those kids...sure they try your patience and push the limits to see how far you'll let them go or what they can get away with...but all they really need and are looking for is love! That is my goal....not only during VBS but all the time....to love these kids (mine and others) to Jesus!! God bless you all, G'nite!

Summertime!!

Well...Summer is finally here.....and man is it HOT!! So far we've had a good Summer! We went to Arkansas on a mission trip....it was super HOT there....but we had a great time...and worked hard!! We helped to build a church in Mammoth Spring! It was no where near smooth sailing....but God always has a reason for the things that happen...and I've learned no to question Him!! Well...at least not to question Him too much!! Now my Summer will be filled with weekends playing outside with my boys! My boys love to play outside....and I like to soak up the sun! Well...until next time...happy blogging!!

Happy Days

You know what I realized tonight.....I don't get out much!! My husband and I went out to supper with a friend!!! We went to a new place in town called Happy Days.....it's a nice place. The food was good, the atmosphere was too.....but the company was better!! We sat there chatting it up as we ate and as we had dessert......then we just kept sitting there talking......before we knew it we had been there for 3 hours!! Those are the times that you make memories that last a lifetime....when you don't have time limits and you can just let the good times roll. That's the way life should be....forget about all the things you "think" you have to do and make time for your friends....you won't regret it!!

Total Exhaustion

Okay, so last night was our first night of our aerobics class at church......and it SO kicked my butt!! I have really let myself get out of shape over teh holidays! I am ready to get back on track. When it gets a little warmer out I want to get back into running....I really miss it!! Not only does it keep me in shape but it gives me time to think about and reflect on things!!

Update on our new ladies bible study....I LOVE IT!! We are doing the study Me, Myself & Lies by Jennifer Rothschild. It has really opened my eyes to a lot of things. I can't wait to see what I learn this week!!

Winter Wonderland

Wow, today it has snowed pretty much all day. It was pretty to watch from the drive thru window at the bank....but then after they salted the roads it became sludge!! YUCK!! By the time I got off work it was refreezing and the roads were getting slick! It's supposed to snow all night and all day again tomorrow....I wonder how much we will end up getting?!?

unfourtunately we had to call off our aerobics class for tonight due to the bad roads....but I'll be just as excited to get started next week!!

Well....my youngest has the chicken pox....poor little guy! The only thing that gives it away is that he's broke out. No other symptoms and he doesn't act like they bother him. Now I just have to wait and see if my oldest ends up with them too?!? Lucky for me they stay with my mother-in-law during the day....so we can still take them to the sitter.

We began our new women's study at chirch last night. We are doing "Me, Myself & Lies" by Jennifer Rothschild. I am super excited about it.

I know my thoughts are really random tonight but this is just how my brain works!!

Happy New Year!!

Okay so it's been way too long since I've blogged....but I have decided it's time to start again in 2010!! That's right...I am not really making resolutions so to speak....but I am making lifestyle changes!! First and most important....I am going to get back into a daily bible study routine, I am also going to get back into some kind of shape....other than BLAH!! My first step to do that is starting an aerobics class at church....it's only once a week but until I can get back into running (it's way too cold outside) this will get the ball rolling!! I am also going to do my best to keep my blog better updated......a lot has been going on since I last blogged....there are books I've read, movies I've seen, my kids have grown...a little....and Thanksgiving and Christmas have come and gone....not to mention 2009!! Can you believe it's a brand new year....2010!! I will have been out of high school 10 years in May!! Time really flies by....I think it gets faster each year!! I am SO excited to find out what all this year has in store for me and my family! Well, I guess that's all for now...but I promise to keep you up to date!!
