Jeremiah 29:11

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.

What a Life!

I lead such a boring life. I don't ever really have much to talk about. On the 19th will be our one year anniversary. This past weekend over Labor day, since was a longer weekend, we drove down to Hot Springs, AR and had our anniversary trip. It was so much and we had such a blast. If you ask Justin his favorite part was the Gangster Museum but I didn't like that at all. I enjoyed our massages, the dinner and dancing on the Belle of Hot Springs, and also doing the old time photos. It was fun to get into costume and act like we were back in the old days. We did lots of other fun stuff too. We toured the area, ate at great restaurants, saw all the nature springs that come out of the mountain at 143 degrees F. We had a great time. I will try to post pictures later.

Change

A lot has changed in our lives this week. We found out on Tuesday that I had a miscarriage. Wednesday I went in to have a DNC and then Thursday and Friday and I stayed home and rested. We are dealing well with everything now. It is hard but we know that God has a plan WAY bigger than we can ever dream. He is our provider and He will see us through.

RESPECT!

Respect- what is that anymore? It seems as if most kids don't know what respect is, or how to respect their peers and especially adults. I have been thinking about this as we are preparing for a baby in our house. I want to show my child respect and teach him/her what that is so that he/she will grow up to be respectful and to be a Godly person. I think respect starts when you 1st respect. Parents need to show by example and teach their children, not try and let them figure it out on their own.
My children will be disciplined and it is a strong belief that my husband and I have. Spare the rod, spoil the child. If a child has not been disciplined then that also goes back to the respect thing. Why should they show some respect when they haven't been taught, shown, or disciplined for not showing respect.

Fellowship

WOW! My house is clean. I have been working hard to get it together because tonight our Pastor Jonathan and his wife Amy and their daughter Macy are all coming over for supper and fellowship. It should be really fun because we haven't had them over in a long time. I am resting this afternoon to get ready to make all the yummy stuff I am making for supper tonight. I can't wait to have them over.

At my momma's house

I am enjoying my time at my mom's house. I have to leave tomorrow morning and make rounds to visit some friends of mine. I miss them all so much. My mom gave us some grocery stuff for our bare pantry and lots of other goodies. She finds lots of deals so I like to go "shopping" in her pantries. We went to a farmer's market today and my mom sold some of her Pink Monkey Soap products. She did really well. We ate at Taco Tico afterwards. We don't have any of those in Missouri so I was craving it. I love the taco burgers. We also went to Liberal, KS yesterday and went shopping with my sisters, Justin, and my mom. We had lots of fun there and Justin made out like a bandit. He got lots of good clothes but he needed new ones. The first day we were here we just hung out and enjoyed lounging around. Tomorrow we head out and then hopefully get a hotel room and have some time for ourselves. Tuesday we will be back at home. It has been a nice relaxing trip.

Back online!

Well Hello friends and family. I am back online. We had a virus on our computer. Chad a friend of ours fixed it. He said that facebook has a lot of viruses so be careful and don't open any outside videos. It has been crazy since I was last on here, actually I can't remember when that was. Over the 4th of July, Justin and I went to Jefferson City to help his parents sell turkey legs. We sold out early but Justin said that he isn't going to sell out next year.LOL!! Who knows. It is hot and gross, greasy, and smelly but its good money. We are going to help them at another in September. I am hoping we can get Justin's boat paid off with the extra money we are making. He is needing a new truck but we have to get that billed paid off 1st before he can get a new truck.
