AWOL

It has been a crazy few days and it's not going to stop any time soon! I have been reading your blogs but haven't commented until tonight because like Shell...I can't figure out how to comment on my blackberry. I know there has to be a way but I haven't found it.

I'm working extra this week so I have money to take to Branson shopping. We leave early early early Friday morning....I hate early.

SO don't forget me please!!

When I come back I'm going to have a really good giveaway thanks to My blog spark. So stay tuned and I'll be back next week.

My dad has to have a catheter in his heart Thursday and mama has a mammogram tomorrow...please say a prayer for them.

...and because a post is not right without a pic....

me,mama and dad

God gave us Christmas: BOOK REVIEW

This story is about God's gift to us. It is a beautiful way to teach your child about Jesus and it also explains that we celebrate Christmas for God and Jesus and not for Santa...without giving Santa a bad rap.

It has to be one of my favorite versions of the story of Christmas for little ones. I teach 4 and 5 year olds in Sunday school and will be sharing this book with them this year.

God gave us Love:BOOK REVIEW

I am saving this book for my 1st grandbaby. It tells how God gave us love in a conversation between Little cub and Grandpa. It explains about being patient,gentle and kind

 even when you don't feel like it. I believe this is the perfect book to read and explain about LOVE to your little one.
I can't wait until my grandbaby gets here and gets old enough for me to read it to him/her.

Treasured: Knowing God by the things He keeps. BOOK REVIEW

Treasured was a very inspirational book to me. I like how Leigh McLeroy weaves her own story and bible lessons into one.
It's a thoughtful read and it still amazes me that God Treasures me and makes me wonder what kind of treasure box I'm inside.
I highly recommend this book not only for yourself but it would be great as Christmas presents.

A SIMPLE WOMANS DAYBOOK

 

 

 

Outside my window... It is dark...and cold...and my husband is out there with his silly self tinkering on an old truck.

I am thinking... I want to make a skirt out of an old pair of pants. I've been looking at tutorials and it doesn't look THAT hard.

I am thankful for... My family and the wonderful Thanksgiving we had yesterday.

From the kitchen...the lamp is shining and the cake balls in the fridge are whispering my name.

I am wearing... green sweats and white socks with watermelons on them.

I am creating... quilts for my nieces and nephews...and maybe a skirt?

I am praying...for a healthy baby.

I am going... to Branson next Friday with our ladies group for the annual Christmas shopping trip.

I am reading...some book by Charlaine Harris...not the Sookie series and it is kinda boring me..

I am hoping...for a pair of brown boots I bid on and a WII for Christmas.!

I am hearing...the news talk about Tiger Woods being in a wreck..

Around the house...it's quiet....except for Fox news in the background.

 

One of my favorite things...spending time with my husband :)

A few plans for the rest of the week... church,work and Branson.

 

A Picture to share...

***The first baby bump pic is on the babys blog!!! She is only 6 weeks and has one already! Go see... BABY BUMP

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE....

THANKSGIVING!

...and I just ate a big Chinese dinner. I am now making chicken and dressing and cake balls. I am suppose to be making peas and sweet potatoes....I'll get there.

Back to these cake bqlls...

I read scanned the recipe and thought oh how easy....NOT.

Don't scan a recipe because you miss important info like....freeze the balls BEFORE dipping them in chocolate. Grrr Look at them. So sad.

BUT

They do taste good.

AND

I have a chocolate cake ball mix in the fridge...I'm going to do this one right.

SEE

Kinda looks nasty but I swear if I wasn't full of chinese I'd eat it with a spoon...just like that.

By the way...Speaking of eating,I think I gained 5 lbs yesterday while eating a early meal with Britt's parents...tomorrow I go to my parents! I have challenged myself to see how much weight I can lose between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

I start Friday...it ends Christmas Eve.

I need to be held accountable so I'm going to post on here about it....anyone wanna do it with me?

Next weekend is our ladies shopping trip to Branson!! We are having a Christmas kitchen towel exchange. Here's mine...what do ya think? Would you wanna get these?  They haven't been ironed yet so kinda look beyond that. They are made out of flour sacks I bought at the Dollar store.

3 for $3!

 

Now to go finish my dressing! YUM!

HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

Let me know if any of the 4 of you wanna do the challenge....or need to... like me.
