Thankful and Blessed

We were blessed to receive money for Christmas from our parents to help us buy a new refrigerator and stove. They were delivered on Friday and I cooked our first meal on Saturday night.

We are very thankful and blessed!

Taste and see that the Lord is GOOD!

Thankful!

One year ago today, my Daddy had a massive heart-attack. I am so thankful God did not take him Home that day. I love you Daddy!

I'm Not Lucky - I'm BLESSED!

Happy Birthday to My Two Dads!

Today is the birthday of my Daddy, Mike (Popeye) and my Step-Dad, Eddie (Granddaddy). Growing up I didn't think much about their birthday's being on the same day, but when I met Travis he informed me that that was weird. I guess it may be a little weird, but to me it's great! Wanna know why? Well, I tell you...

I have been blessed in m life with two dad's and I love them both the same and my Daddy loves me and Eddie loves me as if were his own, so why shouldn't they share a birthday - My Dad's Birthday!

I am so very thankful that my Daddy is around to celebrate this birthday this year. The Lord spared his life a few months ago and I can not thank HIM enough for allowing me to spend a little more time with my Daddy and for my kids to spend a little more time with their Popeye.

And for Eddie, I am very blessed to have him as my step-dad. I want to share with you one (of the many) reason I love Eddie. Eddie is such a man of God; at Nannie Rose's graveside funeral once the pastor's were done, Eddie asked if he could say something. He stood up and told how much he loved his mom and how hard a two weeks it had been and how he would miss his mom but he KNEW where she was, -she was in Heaven with her Savior, and he shared that everyone there could KNOW they could spend eternity in Heaven with Christ if they would accept Him as their Savior. He did not want to miss a chance to share his faith with those he loved the most. I pray that moment will stay with me the rest of life to remind me that no matter how hard a circumstance, I must share of the love and salvation of the One who gives me life!

I love you Daddy and Eddie - Happy Birthday!

Go Red

Go Red for Sha-Sha!

A Day of Remembering

Three years ago today is a day I will never forget and I began this post with great intentions of sharing some memories and thoughts, but they just won't seem to make it to the computer screen. I guess the Lord wants me to talk to Him about them...

So on this day, cherish the moments you have with those you dearly love and thank God for the time He gives you with them.

Swimming Makes It Better

Thanks for your prayers concerning Samuel's sunburn. He is feeling much better and he has no more blisters, they are all gone - just new skin now. Last night after church, we went to a neighbors house swimming; this actually did him a world of good - it it gross but it helped get the dead skin off and his arms are looking much better! Praise the Lord!

Thanks again for your prayers!

Thanks!

Thanks for praying that Cassie would wander home. I woke up this morning around 6am and decided I was going to go for a walk in the neighborhood and look and call for Cassie. As I walked outside I went around the house and there she was in the fence of our neighbor. We haven't had a chance to talk with him, but he would of had to put her in his fence sometime during the night.

There was a hole where Cassie had tired to dig her back into the yard.

When I left for work this morning, she still was on the back porch, where she had not left since she came home.
