New Puppies??

No...just the kids.


I went to the gym and came home and this is where the kids (plus cousin Coy who got to spend the night) were. Safely protected like new puppies in an old dog pen.   


We've even used this to keep the basketball from rolling down the hill.  


Dusty and them had been playing on the BIG EMPTY dirt lot next to us and they were having snacks here....Cheezits and water! :)  



Psalm 32:7
You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble!

Hit the Road

So I got to go run again today--thanks Dusty for always taking the kids so I can go!!! Today, right at 3 miles...and this was my view!!!! I left from our house and took the "long" way to my in laws. They literally just live around the corner...but I took 3 corners and 3 miles to get there...in under 40 minutes. I am happy with that.  So far this week.....a total of 15 miles!!! WOW!! Even I'm impressed...not that YOU have to be! ;)  




Hebrews 12:1
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great CLOUD  (!) of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, 
and let us run with perseverance the race set before us!

And the "road" yesterday...it started out as a ramp...but then was yes, a dirt path for the monster trucks.  :)

Prayer Cards on the Fridge and What's This?

Day 6....since I almost forgot yesterday to blog....hence the toenails from the pedicure the day before (and yes...I added a Scripture with the toenail post...look in the comments section on  yesterday's post).


I knew exactly what I was going to post today!  


This is our bag of Christmas cards...you just THINK it looks like Valentine's Day...its not..its about LOVE!! We save all our Christmas cards every year and pull out 2-3 cards each month and pray for that family. All of our cards are in this bag. I send a note to the families that we are praying for them and tell them that we are laying their family at the feet of the Throne!



This is our fridge...I've got two Christmas cards on it for this month!! The other stuff I'll show you later...one is a "before" picture of me...10 years ago and one is an "after."  Other stuff is OUR Christmas card and JJ's memory verse for Cubbies and his homework list for Rainbow Lane. 



Guess what this is??  Answer tonight! Give me your best guess!!!




I've got to remember...its not just about the pics...its about finding God and Scripture in our everyday life!
Psalms 145:18
The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
