Open Table Night!

This Thursday was our Monthly Open Table night at church for us ladies! I was thrilled to go and spend some time with my friends! I had such a good time chatting with Bryna, who refused to have her picture taken so please just conjure up an image of her in your mind :)
My craft this month was working on the flowers to hang from the ceiling in our office. I bought 4 bunches of Iris' and cut them apart so I had single flowers. Then I tied sparkly silver string on them and put a fancy hook on the end that I fashioned out of paper clips.
I learned that it is not a smart idea to just lay them on the ground with the hooks and strings. Instead what I SHOULD have done, is hooked them when I got to the office. Oh yeah and I should have wrapped the string around each flower. You can imagine what happened. Thank goodness for Bryna and her friends untangling skillz!

The other table. We actually had a full table! YEAH! It was awesome to have almost 10 of us there!!

Bergs and the Valster. Two Godly ladies whom I love and look up to greatly.

And that goes ditto for Sheryl! She kicked off our bible study by teaching Weds night. Look for the post on that coming soon. I love her because she is so REAL. And freely shares her heart and her struggles and what God is teaching her.

The Valster for a Cricut for Christmas (man I hope I spelled that right otherwise Bergs and the rest of the crew are going to be ALL over me!!) and Bergs was giving her a tutorial on its awesomeness..

I think this is hilarious. Here is Karen, my partner in crime. not crafting, nope, TEXTING!! In fact, I bet she was on facebook!! hahahah
This only proves I have no shame. So I got my hair cut and she cut it a tad too short, but thats ok. But she gave me these awkward bangs that make me look like MARGE SIMPSON!! not.a.fan. Thankfully I was able to do them curly today and I look like my normal self. Last night was struggling though.... At least Bergs looks cute!!

And the fruits of my crafting labor! Its now SPRING in 2144!! Iris' are popping up... Or below?

Who cares what the terminology is, they look CUTE!!

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...

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...

Life in Phone Pics

 Can I just say how much I appreciate the fact that my new phone takes so much better pictures than my old one?! I have been using my phone for almost all of my pics! And bonus, no purple hair! Above is a new dessert I made. A Smores Cookie Bar. It was yummy. I had some and then realized I would eat the entire thing if I kept it. So I gave 90% of it away to my students. This just cracked me up. Last weekend when I was elevating my feet I obviously had the lights off and yet my toes were so neon pink that you could still see them in the darkness!  My toes weren't the only thing pink on my body. My sunburn was of an epic proportion. now it has started to peel. Everywhere. Even my arms. yuck. I'll spare you from that! Oh well, at least my hair looked cute here!  Yes, I am really showing you a picture of my cabinet. Last night I decided to totally move all but one of my cabinets. Erm. or rather the insides of them. My dishes and glasses used to be in th...
