Merry Christmas!

I wanted to wish everyone a very merry Christmas! I wish I knew how to put cute animations on this... I've seen a bunch of great things... but I can't figure out how to put them on here. Sheesh... If only I knew someone who was computer savvy who could help me! Needless to say, I hope everyone had a great Christmas holiday with their friends and family. More importantly I pray that everyone was able to stop for a moment and remember the reason we celebrate Christmas in the first place.

Ya know, it's hard to celebrate Christmas.... the birth of a baby, Jesus, without reflecting on the purpose for His coming... to die for us. I can't even begin to wrap my mind around the concept.. but I'm so glad God did that for us. It's incredible!

I will post pictures in a few days.... I'll post pictures also of our new curtains. (I'm so excited about them!)

Have a great one!!

Good bye sexy specs... hello new daddy!!

Hello to all my readership (though they may be few),

I just wanted to ask that if any one thinks of my dad this evening and tomorrow please say a prayer for him. In the last few years he was diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetics often have to worry about developing cataracts. Well... as it is, my father is not an exception to this statement.

Last year the doctor noticed a cataract developing... and this year at his eye exam said it must come out. So tomorrow is the day! My father will have a double lens transplant. They'll do the first eye tomorrow, and then the second eye sometime next week. If all goes well, then my father will no longer need glasses for every day issues. Instead, he'll be trading them in for reading glasses!

That's incredible! I'm not sure what to think! I have never seen my dad without glasses! I think he said he's had them for 47 (ish?) years!

So we'd really appreciate the prayers, I know he's a little bit anxious since he'll be awake and they're playing with his eyes. Who wouldn't be??

Thanks all! Other than that, on the homefront we're doing well!! Looking forward to Christmas break!

Haven't forgotten about this....

Well I'm back! I know it's been a while. I haven't forgotten about this blog, I just have been so busy.

Last week Jeremy and I were blessed to spend Thanksgiving week on vacation with some of our family and a few friends. We went on an Eastern Caribbean cruise. It was a little more choppy than I like as far as the boat rocking is concerned. But, it was soooooooo nice to leave the snow behind for a week. We didn't take too many pictures, but in the next few days, I'll try to load a few that we did take.

Along with a cruise I did spend a little time reflecting on what I am thankful for. Here is just a short list:
1. The unconditional love of Jesus and the salvation he brings
2. Spending holidays with my husband (you never know how much you appreciate
something so little until you can't actually do it.)
3. Sleeping in on black Friday
4. Good families... both mine and my inlaws
5. Great church home
6. New place to live
7. Steady income that God has provided

Like I said, there are soooo many things I could list.... what are you thankful for this holiday season?
