Today my husband took out the insulation that was blocking the one vent in our crawl space. Go Pete go!

So this guy Kirk and his wife started coming to our church recently. I went to high-school with his wife. I didn't hang out with her though because she was a grade older and we didn't really have classes together. Anyways a few weeks ago he forgot or lost his guitar pick so I gave him one I had in my wallet. This week I brought my guitar to ( Read more... )

I was watching CNN today. This guy who I believe referred to himself as Abu Jihad made a statement. He said something along the lines of: What do you expect us to do be quiet and turn the other cheek?! We are Muslims not Christians.

This was one of the most interesting statements I have ever heard.

Pete has been pulled over a handful of times for rediculous things and it is always when I am around. When we were dating and he was 21 he had never been pulled over before. One night after we had gone out to a restaurant to eat we were sitting in the parking lot "talking". We had taken separate cars and I got out and got into mine and pulled ( Read more... )

Somme friends that used to go to church with us asked our church to pray for their son. He is in a bad area of Iraq. He is in what I believe is called the Brigade unit. He and four other men where attacked the other day. He and one other guy survived. His 3 buddies were killed. If anyone wants to pray for him and his family that would be ( Read more... )

I am looking for and could really use a bunk bed for my kids. If anyone has one or knows of someone who has one for sale, please let me know. Thanks. I would also consider trading my sons red twin race car bed for a bunk bed.

I must be losing weight in my hands because occassionally my wedding ring will just fall off. I hope I don't lose it.

Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.
Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.
Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.
Painful moments, TRUST GOD.
Every moment, THANK GOD.

I think that Rick Warren wrote this who is just amazing.

A couple of weeks ago my husband screamed loudly when he came face to face with a raccoon while trying to put the puppy out. Then, the other day Pete told me that we had a raccoon in our trash can and so he put the lid on it. Well with the given heat I didn't want the little guy to suffocate and I really didn't want to mess with it. I had ( Read more... )
