Life is precious, life is sweet

I have been informed that I need to blog, so in order to appease SKippy and not have her give me the scary eyebrow of death (which btw i totally tried to make my eyebrow move like yours yesterday. totally didn't work.)

I don't really have a set topic today, I guess I will just give y'all an update of whats happening in Cherryland!

Well Friday I was home with a Monster Migraine, which effectively killed any and all plans I had for that night:(

Saturday I still had a leftover headache but was feeling better, and that was really good because I had to babysit the bubbies that afternoon! Joe didn't take a nap, but was surprisingly calm and low key. Usually he is bouncing off the walls! Sam Sam took a LONG nap and was none too happy when he woke up. Especially when he found out Dada was leaving. oops.. Thankfully george (stuffed monkey) and blankie helped and he quit crying. I felt horrible, he has never cried when I have watched them! Poor thing was having a rough day.

So the boys both watched Thomas the Train, which is quite possibly the worst movie ever made. Seriously, I thought From Justin to Kelly was bad. They have NOTHING on Thomas the train! NOTHING!! And to make it weirder, Alec Baldwin was in it?! I was like what the mess?!?! Thankfully I had a magazine with me to read while they napped, so i popped that out and glanced through it while they watched the movie. Boy do I hope they have better children's movies by the time I have kids..

Sunday I was FINALLY able to go to church!! YEAH!! And it was a really awesome Worship service. We sang a new song which I about went charasmatic on, and sang another song that is one of my faves that of course I can't remember the name of! Someone even SAT by me in church!! That was exciting enough! No one ever sits by me, especially willingly! HA!! SO that was cool. I really am finally getting involved and plugged into my church and I'm beginning to feel like I am part of the church family. I didn't realize how much I had missed that. MY old church we went to from when i was 13-21 and everyone knew me (ha they couldn't get away from me if they tried! seeing as I was on stage doing offertory, choir, leading choir, special music, and the pianist for the youth choir) I was almost the churches mascot! So its been different not having that at this church, but I finally really feel like I'm home. and I have to say that is all because of getting involved with the Weds night Women's Bible Study last semester. I was terrified to go alone and not know anyone but I went and now I have friends and its great!

Not only do I have friends:) but for the first time in the 5 years i've been going to my new church, I got invited to go to someone's house for lunch! I had an awesome time with Kristy and her hubby and twin girls. They are so much fun, and Kristy is as crazy as I am... hmmm... maybe more? (HE ASKED ABOUT ME!! bwhaahahha)

To top all of that fun off next Friday night I start my new role as a small group babysitter! I'll be watching the kids in Kristy's small group, and I"m really looking forward to it! A bit apprehensive because it is three girls and one boy, and I am used to joe and sam, no girls! So this will take some getting used to! Especially if there are tears! ohhh boy howdy. I just don't do well with anyone crying at all. If one of them cries i may be sitting with them crying! HA!!

OK well this has turned into less of a what i've been up to post and more of a GET INVOLVED WITH SOMETHING AT YOUR CHURCH!!!! :):):) That means you Skip!!!

JESUS IS COOL!!

Yeah! I guess its true about getting involved in church. We lead a small group... which is really cool. Our church is huge though, so sometimes we still go to church and dont know anyone!

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...
