Audra's Happy Merry Birthday Christmas!

 One of my Christmas traditions is to go to Audra's house for dinner the week before Christmas to celebrate her Birthday which is TODAY! YAYS!! and Christmas! This year we lucked out in the photo department as her hubs was there, so we rousted him out of his man cave-ing to be our photographer! Worked sooo much better than using my self timer! Poor Cubs never really got the whole self timer thing. He would look at us like why are we smiling at a camera that no one is behind? Bless his heart.
 Now that Auds has her new house she has not one, but two trees to take our pictures by! Hurray! I love hanging out in her fancy living room, these chairs are sooooo comfy!!!
 Our gifts were the same exact size, and wrapped in very similiar paper. Great minds think alike!
 Cubs was REALLY into the gift opening process! What a good helper!
 Can you see the slobber marks on the box? hahah.. Poor little Birchbox!! After months, ok years, of me telling Audie all about #birchbox I decided it was time to gift her her own subscription! We'll see if the Mary Kay lover is a convert or not!
 Great minds really do think alike as she gave me some awesome Burts Bee's skincare stuff! I'm a big fan of Burts Bees, so I was really excited! I get super crazy dry skin in the winter, my hands get so dry that they crack and sometimes bleed. Ye-ouch!  I have been slathering several of these products all over my hands and fingers! Sidenote, I love how Cubbie is smiling at me here!
 Happy Cherrybear with yummy skin stuff! I do love a good girly product!
 And Cubs loves ripping paper and presents apart. Look at him going to town!
 Who? me? What are you speaking of? Cubbie your innocent look, it's not working my friend!
He just cracks me up! Just laying on the floor playing like a little boy! He's full of personality.. and then some!

Happy Merry Birthday Christmas Audie! I am so thankful for your friendship, and your wise and Godly council! I am looking forward to seeing how God works in our lives this next year!!

January Recap

  Tap, Tap, Tap. Is this thing on? No, your eyes aren't deceiving you, I'm back blogging after almost a year of not posting anything. I did a month long Prayer and Fasting with my church and abstained from Social Media (more about that to come) and during that time I realized I really missed blogging! So here I am! Clearly I'm rusty at this because I managed to upload my pictures in the opposite order, and I'm too lazy to go through and move each and every one of them, so we are going to look back at the month of January from the end to the start! Let's go! The Last day of January was a busy one. Well for me at least, after spending most of 2022 on my parents couch, inbetween surgeries, doing anything is busy for me. I had a piano tuning for Old faithful, my new to me baby grand, so I hung out in my bedroom while my tuner was there, and worked on my laptop. Before that I had my 1 year Brow touch up with Marissa at Lafayette Microblading. It had actually been over a

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

Frugal Friday- (Some) Tips and Tricks on how I get the most bang for my buck

(Shoutout to Ollies for the perfect Picture for this blog post) Remember when it was January and I said I was going to blog more this year? Well, it's now December, and I haven't blogged since January so clearly that goal went out the window.  BUT! I am here blogging today to share something I'm passionate about! And that is SAVING MONEY! And spending the least amount of money on things. Listen, the lower the price of something is, the more I like it.  I was waxing poetic about this subject to a friend on Marco Polo this week and decided that I felt the need to share it with the world. So, world, (or the three people who read my blog) You're Welcome. Sidenote: These are just some of the ways I stretch my dollars and get money back from purchases. Some of these have referral codes that if you join from them I get some sort of a reward, and some don't have codes, or I'm just not cool enough to know where to find them. Use the code, don't use the code, but plea
