Life..........

sucks sometimes! Sorry about the strong word but it has been a crabby day! Just needed to write down that life is not always roses and today was one of those days!

You Cant Help But Laugh.........

At least I hope God is laughing. Anyway, tonight was a good night with the kiddos at church. First of all we had 27 kids which is HUGE for a Wednesday night. The weather has been nothing but rain here for 2 weeks now so our Splash Night got cancelled because of the weather. So we decided to watch a "family movie". Simple enough right? WRONG-- I got a movie called "Bingo" about a sweet dog and his friend. Well 10 minutes into movie we hear the word "holy s__!" I was horrified! Then 10 minutes later they all start giving each other the finger! Needless to say we cut the movie off and put in another much better family movie. I then preceeded to confess to each and every parent that came to pick their kids up and pray that they will let them return. They were all very gracious, even some laughing hysterically at me. So I made a major booboo tonight but I think God was laughing. I hope so anyway!!

You Are a Light Pink Rose

You represent sweetness and grace. Your vibe: Kind and gentle Falling in love with you: is like falling in love with a best friend

What Color Rose Are You?

I love Easter......

It is the greatest event ever to happen in the world! I love celebrating my Risen Lord Jesus. The thought of all the things He went through just so I could live eternally with him blows my mind everytime I think of it. He felt real emotions just like we do. He didnt wont to die but He knew it was the Fathers will and He died a very painful death. He did it all just so we could live a life of forgiveness and victory through him!!

I am so tired also. We had a GREAT Easter Service at church yesterday. Tons of people, picnic and the kids had a egg hunt even though it was cold here. Good 'ol Texas weather brought snow on Saturday and cold temps on Sunday. Last week on Thursday, I had my air conditioner running and then on Friday we had to turn the heat on!!! Truly only in Texas!

I am so glad to be serving a Lord that is alive and well today. God is good all the time!!

Busy........

Busy life these days. We just had Spring Break last week and now we are back in the full swing of things! Our church's annual Missions Conference is this weekend. So with that comes meetings, meetings, and more meetings. I absolutely love Missions Conference. I would love to sell everything we have and leave tomorrow if that what the Lord would allow. Our church has a huge heartbeat for missions and it is an exciting time every year!! Looking forward to visiting with Sandy Carter from Nicaragua. I have been down there the past 2 summers with our church and it has been GREAT! Sandy has an incredible ministry in Nicaragua and is worthy of all the support she gets and much more! Brother Dirk Wood will also be here. Have known Dirk and his family for many years now and he truly never ceases to amaze me with what he allows the Lord to do through him. He is without a doubt, one of a kind missionary.
So with that I will close for now. Gotta go get ready for the kiddos at church. See yall later!

Yesterday Blog..........

Just to clear things up for those that read my blog post yesterday. I am not committing some great sin, I just needed to thank God for always being there from the past until today to pick me up and forgive me. Forgiveness is a daily thing and we all need it. Just felt like I needed to clear the air on that. Thank you.

Gossip......................

It destroys everything in its path! Help us O Lord not to disguise it as "prayer". Today is a new day that you have made and I will rejoice and be glad in it! I love you Lord.

Thankful.............

I am thankful today that I serve a very loving and forgiving God. Sometimes I think can he forgive just one more time and then I screw up again. I also wonder how many times God can forgive me and then decide thats it. Well I know he will forgive all the time because he is a very merciful God. I just need to learn from my mistakes and move on. I am striving for excellency in all I do and I want to please the Lord in evrerything. Well I am far from that. Some days or better than others. Then it seems like there are days when all I do is mess up. I know this sounds crazy but I just wanted to write today and say that I am thankful for a loving God who never gives up on me and continues to pick me and hold me and love more and more everyday!
Thank you Lord.

How Sweet...........

Thank you to a friend who I saw these on her blog. I think they are PRECIOUS! Just like me and my Amanda Kay!

AHHHHHHHH.....................

Spring is in the air! It has been a beautiful week here. Temperatures have been in high 70's and the sun has been out everyday! I am so happy the weather is getting warmer!! I have been down in my back but am feeling better today. I have found a new chiropractor and I love him! He is so good and I feel instant relief when he pops me. I am going again tomorrow and cant wait.

I just want to say I love the Lord today. I had a moms prayer group this morning at my house and it was awesome! We prayed about how God is able to do all and HE CAN do all. I am hanging on this cause a situation arose when I came to work and now I know why I read scriptures pertaining to God being able. I know He will see me through this and all will be good. Cause He is able to do all good for those that believe and TRUST in him! And I am trusting him today for everything!

Also I just want to say a HUGE thank you and I love you to my wonderful husband Rob. He went way above and beyond to be Mr. Mom while I was out with my back. He always takes good care of Amanda and me but this time he went above. I am very thankful to have him in my life and I love him more and more everyday! Thank you honey, I love you!

I LOVE...........

My husband, Rob! On Valentines Day my love got me the most BEAUTIFUL pink roses I have ever seen. I know they were waaaaaaayyyyyyyyy expensive being valentine day and all but my moon god knows how to make me happy. He is the best romantic ever and I love him more and more everyday. He also got me a spa pedicure which I cant wait to use when the weather gets right for flip flops. Cause if you know me at all, you know 2 things I love----- coffee and flipflops!!!

The sun is out today and I think it is going to be a nice day and all. I am going to pick up Amanda at Abigails house after she spent the night. The kiddos are out of school today for Presidents Day. So pooter head will be with us at work.

I am happy today and I love my family so very much!!

YUCKY WEATHER MAKES ME............

ANGRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I dont like the cold and wind. Today is a yucky weather day. I am so ready for HOT weather here in Texas. When I moved here 16 yrs ago I knew I would like the weather. Cause I love the hot sun! Anyway I am happy today but angry that it is sooooooooooooo cold right now! Can you be happy and angry all at the same time? Oh well!

Happy........

I am so happy today. I went away for the weekend to PTA State Convention in San Antonio. Had tons of fun and GREAT food. BUT, I am happy to be home again with my family. I missed them so much. I love to travel but it is so nice to come home to a loving husband and daughter who adore me! (hehehehe)
I have a great life and am thankful for it more and more each day. The weather has definetly gone way downhill here. It is cold and rainy. Suppose to get more yucky weather later in week. I am so ready for HOT Texas weather! I can always cool off but never seem to get warm enough during the winter time. Anyway I am happy today and glad to be home.

Thoughts..............

Today is a good day. Well the weather has certainly gone downhill. It is a cold rainy day here in the good ol state of Texas. Yesterday was gorgeous with high in 70's now it is cold again. Only in Texas can we have such drastic change in 24 hour period.

Today I am thinking how much the Lord loves me and will do anything to keep my mind on him. I have a prayer group that meets at my house every Thursday morning to pray for our kids and the schools. It is called MOMS IN TOUCH. It is an awesome organization and I am proud to be apart of it. We read scripture about God's love for us. I am just so thankful that no matter how much we mess this thing called life up, His love never ever changes for us. He is there to pick us up and hug us and let us know that HE STILL LOVES us. We are his precious possessions and he will not let us go!! I am so thankful for that. I pray that He be Lord over ever thought in my stupid head. I want to be pleasing to him.

Also I am thinking of my wonderful husband, Rob. We are going to celebrate 14 years of wonderful marriage this June. I love him more and more everyday. He has given me the world and I live on top of it because of him. I think of all the things we have been through together in the 16 years we have known each other. College life, dating, dating, marriage, birth of our child, job changes, family deaths, doggie deaths, pure craziness and yet my love is stronger today than ever. You are my moon god baby and I just want you to know how much you mean to me today. I love you forever and NOTHING will ever change that.

Those are my thoughts for today!

Praying..........

I am praying today for my precious little girl. Tears are welling up in my eyes right now as I think of her. You see, she has a classmate whose daddy was killed over the weekend by random act. This little 8 year old girl no longer has a daddy to come home to. It makes me so very sad. My daughter TRULY has the worlds GREATEST Daddy! The thought of losing him anytime is so unbearable. I pray to the good Lord above that we all will be together for a very looooooooooong time. I love Robbie so much and am very thankful that the Lord has blessed our life together with the gift of a daughter. Help us O Lord to continue to train her in your ways that when she grows up she will follow you all the days of her life.

I love you Lord and thank you for my family today!!

Here We Go Again.............

Ok I am going to try this thing again. I dont know how many postings will be here but we will give it a try. I admire Rob's blog so much and hopefully will be able to keep this thing up and running. So today is beautiful!!!!!!!! The sun is out and the blue skies are incredible. We are heading to around 70 degrees. It makes me very happy to see the sun!!
