Gratitude Friday


What a busy week...I feel like I have been out of my blogging world. I am trying to make some changes around the house and we finished up our septic issues (with an approval from the health dept.-yahoo)...so I have been missing in action.

Funny morning today...got up late because the baby kept me up during the night...so I was up an hour late, which I absolutely hate. At least we had water this morning, because yesterday our pipes froze and we didn't have water for about 3 hours. The kids are eating breakfast at the table and I decide to go outside to pick up some eggs that the are in the chicken pen. Now lets remember that I only have flip flops, shorts and a t-shirt on...I was dressed for later in the day (when it was supposed to be warm), not for the 32 degrees that it was outside. I move the chicken pen, trying to retrieve the two eggs, and the water bucket tips over....ahhhhhhh! Next thing you know I am cleaning the bucket out, since it really needed to be cleaned anyway, with bleach and then having to fill it back up. I am being sprayed by the water...and let me tell you how cold that water was...my hands were frozen red when I came in. I finally got that situated and was back in to start school 30 minutes late....I wish I had it all on video!


1. I am thankful that my chickens have not stopped laying eggs, despite the cold weather...they are finally giving a good amount each day.


2. Thankful for a few really cold days each winter...now if it would only snow and stick!


3. Thankful for my change in math curriculum which is working better for Bryn.


4. Thankful for my date last night with Matt...Japanese all the way!


5. Thankful for Barry and Sarah Bulls and their new addition born yesterday...Addie!
I am posting a picture of sweet William.

Haven't done a gratitude Friday in a long time. It is nice to take a moment and realize what God has done in your life. 1. Thankful for Matt's new car. When the enemy tried to turn something good into bad, the Lord's provision overrides. 2. Thankful for all of Judah's curls. 3. Thankful for the good report at the neurosurgeon's office on Monday. We are believing for a easy repair of the malformed artery. 4. Thankful for the rain that just came down...so cleansing. 5. Thankful for His presence and His voice. 6. Thankful for my boy turning five. Oh, who knows what adventures we have before us in the future. I can't wait.

Embrace The Camera

This is the first time that I am doing Embrace the Camera. Head over to one of my favorite blogs ...www.andersonfamilycrew.blogspot.com ...and check out her Embrace the Camera day. Her goal is to have a day where you just post pictures of YOU and your kids or anyone special in your life. I have found we have had whole days, outings, vacations where I don't appear in any pictures...so sad right? One day my kids will look back and wonder where I am...haha, behind the camera. Well, that's not good enough. So, here I am. Embracing the camera with my favorite people in the world. After church on Sunday, Esther wanted to take a picture of all of us. This is an impromptu picture. I love these people. After I wanted to snap a picture of one of my favorite people...my boy William. So sweet. I love this little man...toothless and all. Thanks Emily, for continuing with the Embrace the Camera. I finally did it!
