Award Time!

My Friend Jen Nominated me for ANOTHER Award!!!

Thanks Jen!!

Jen and I have been friends for three or four years now. We get together once a week…Or at least we try!

But now along with this award I must answer some questions and then nominate 5 friends…So who will it be? First let’s take care of those questions!

1. Do you have the same friends since childhood? Nope not really! I moved far away!

2. What do you value most about your friends? Faith friendships and unconditional love. We are all sinners and no-one is perfect!

3. Are your friends your sounding boards? Not normally. Well that is unless you count bloggy Friends!

4. What is your favorite activity to share with your friends? Crafts , Bloggy things and I really enjoy growing spiritually together with friends through Bible Study!

Now I have to pass this onto 5 friends:

  1. ruth
  2. Monicaa
  3. Diana
  4. Michelle
  5. Carolyn

So why did I pick these ladies well let me tell you each one of them have been great in some way.

Ruth…Ruth and I went to college together though we weren’t friends per se! Though now I regret that! I have learned a lot since we found each other through her sister’s blog this past year! And That leads me to Diana…

Diana is Ruth’s sister…well sister in law…whom I also went to college with and we were friends in college!. We found each other through a blog ring on Xanga that was set up by students at the college we both graduated from. Both Ruth and Diana have great blogs that have given me great ideas and challenged me personally

Then there is Monica who is a wife of a chaplain who is in the middle east at this point. She and I have a lot in common. One of which is that she also has three kids three and under. She has twin daughters who are three and a son who is about one or one and a half! She gives a wonderful insight into the ministry of a military chaplain..Oh yeah Did I mention she lives In Germany…One place I desperately want to visit someday!

Then there’s Michelle who is a missionary along with her husband and family is Ensenada Mexico to the deaf. She has been such a light to me from the very beginning of my bloggy existence. Though she and her family are going through a time of testing right now she had continued to be a source of light and Laughter!

And last but definitely not least is Carolyn who has battled some things last year has come through witha beautiful smile! She is so creative and it’s great to see all of her creative abilities!
I hope to get to know her more over the coming months!

6th Picture Fun

A couple of my friends…Diana and Ruth have participated in a fun little activity where you go to your picture files and post your 6th picture from your 6th file…So now it’s my turn and here it is:

It’s a picture of our camp site this past summer. We have grown to love camping at this campsite at a near by Bible conference. We love it and so do our kids!!!

Wow Where Has the Time Gone????

It has almost been a week since I posted last!

The thing is that I really haven’t had anything Blog worthy this past week!

Today is such a beautiful fall day here I thought that I would just sit down and say HI

So “HI”

I will say that I did find our camera last night so pictures will show up sometime this week of all our work and progress that has been happening!

It’s hard when you go through just a dramatic transformation that you loose things for a while…sometimes that may be keys, your camera, a wallet or maybe even your mind! But be assured all has been found and life is FINALLY getting back to NORMAL!

Normal for at least our family so stay tuned. the next few weeks will be crazy ones as our lives again will be in the spotlight of another church. We will be considering them as they will be considering us for their next pastor! This one is a bit outside of our comfort zone and a bit overwhelming to think about but we are open to whatever God has in store for our family!

PLEASE PLEASE PRAY FOR US AS WE CONSIDER GOD’S WILL IN OUR LIVES!

A FEW THINGS TO NOTE…

  1. I found my keys …right where I left them after Lady Bug brought them to me last week! I found them Sunday right after i posted about still not having them!
  2. We did not have a car crash we were EXTREMELY close to having one but were not in it! For those of you who read my day book yesterday and thought We were put into that situation we were not.. We escaped by God’s grace..Our “New” truck would have been totaled. there would not have been anyway around that considering the speed of the other driver and the angle at which everything would have happened! However thankyou for your prayers anyway!

200Th Post

This past week I hit my 2ooth post….and I missed it just like I missed the 100th post. I have been doing this for almost 2 years. This coming January will mark that anniversary!

It has been a great two years and a great 200 posts…

I have made some great friends and rekindled some old friendships!

So stick around and we’ll see what happens in the next 200 posts!
