Word-Filled Wednesday


Join Amy Deanne@Internet Devotions for Word-Filled Wednesday.



This is Daniel's ultrasound picture that I added the verse too. Isn't it so true? God knows us before we were formed in our Mother's womb? He is such an awesome and mighty God!! I am proud to announce we are expecting out third child that God formed before it put the baby in my belly. I am about 5 weeks pregnant! We are very excited!!! God truly is so amazing and loving!!! We don't plan ours or try to have babies,but God sure does give them to us. Next July we will be welcoming the 5th member to our family. Wow! So keep us in your prayers as we journey through this pregnancy and then go into the labor and delivery stages. I sure don't feel equipped to raise 3 children under the age of 3,but God knows best. He will give me the strength and His grace is sufficient for me!

Friday's Fave Five


  1.  Monday my Mama stayed the night with us. It's always good to have an extra hand around the house. The boys always love when she comes to stay.
  2. Tuesday we went to finish our Christmas shopping for the boys while my Mama kept the boys. It was our date day. It was so nice to be alone and converse with my husband in complete sentences. :) We got some great deals and ate at Olive Garden. Yummy!
  3. My husband was so helpful Wednesday and Thursday. He helped me fold the clothes and pick the house up so when the boys were asleep I could sit down with him. I love him very much!
  4. The Fall temps are finally back and the weather man says for good! woo-hoo! Cool days and cold nights!
  5. God's provision never ceases to amaze me! He is so mighty and awesome! He watches out for us and takes care of us in a way I can't explain!

Thankful Thursday


I hope everyone is having a great Thursday! It's raining here,praise God!! We have been without rain for a month and were in a drought. Praise God Sunday it starting raining! I'm thankful for this rain,though I am not a fan of rainy days. We desperately needed it!

Lynn@Spiritually Unequal Marriage is our host for this month of October. She asked us to share a verse today that has been a source of truth.


He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. Proverbs 16:32 This one was in my daily reading one day. Wow. Profound. Sometimes I am very quick to anger with myself,my kids,and my husband. It's not something I am happy about,but it is the truth. When I came across this verse again,I was reminded I should be slow to anger.  Why let people or what they do get to me? Am I that weak? I have Christ in me that is there to help me be slow to anger. This is one I am memorizing and will be posting it in our home. It's one I think we all could use. 


Share your verse with us and have a great day!

Friday's Fave Five


It's a lovely day! It is time to reflect back on our week. Join us and Susanne@Living to tell the Story for Friday's Fave Five. 

  1. I was able to sleep till 8 some mornings!! My sweet Aaron likes to be up at 7,but at least 2 days he slept till 8 ahhh... 8 is late enough for me,sometimes too late. It was nice though.
  2. Being able to pay bills early. We have been able to pay 3 trucks notes ahead since we got our Mountaineer in April. It feels really good!
  3. Spending time with my parents on this past Monday. We took the boys over and spent most of the day. It was fun to see them play with the Grandparents and cousins. 
  4. The weather!! I love Fall! It's not too hot,but not too cold. I can raise the windows during the day and just smell the fresh air! Change is nice!
  5. Spending some time with my hubby. At night when the boys are in bed we've been cuddling up and watching the Baseball playoffs. I love baseball as much as he does. So it has been nice!


Hope everyone has a wonderful day! I re-did my blog with Fall colors. My lovely friend,Hollie, did my header. Pretty isn't it? Thank you bunches!!


This time last year I was in active labor with my baby Aaron. So amazing! He will be 1 tomorrow. Here is his birth story.

Thankful Thursday


Happy TT!!! I love this meme! Lynn@Spiritually Unequal Marriage is our host this month of October. Don't forget to check out her post at her blog.

She shared 10 things about herself we did not know,so here goes my 10 things.
  1. I love to ride 4-wheelers!
  2. I have one older brother and one younger sister.
  3. We live in a pretty big city in Alabama.
  4. I am terrified of any type of insect,especially spiders!
  5. I have to sleep with a box fan,no matter how cold it is!
  6. We drink goat milk at our home.
  7. I have had 5 tickets and 2 wrecks all in one year(way back before I married my State Trooper ;) ).
  8. I love to sit under an open fire and cook smores or roast Conecuh sausage!
  9. I have worn glasses since the 4th grade,but at age 21 discovered contacts.
  10. I only have 2 living grandparents. My paternal Grandmother and paternal step-Grandmother.
I also want to say how thankful for my parents I am. We spent Monday with them and it was so much fun! I miss our land and that place. My parents have 40 wooded acres and a pond. Oh so many memories there! I wish so bad I could raise our boys there. My Daddy has recovered almost 100% from the Lyme disease and Babesia(type of Malaria). He has started back to work and we are so thankful!!! The boys had a blast playing with Mimi and Papa along with 2 cousins. My husband and I actually slipped away for a little bit to go by his old department(he used to be a Deputy) to check on everyone. It was nice! Mama cooked spaghetti (I still can't get mine to taste like hers lol) and brownies for us. We stayed until late that afternoon playing,talking,and laughing. I am very blessed indeed! My parents are amazing!! They are even more amazing Grandparents!

Join in with us and share your thankful heart!
