Thankful Thursday


I think that Fall has arrived a little bit here in the deep South. This is my second favorite time of the year. I love the cool mornings with a gorgeous sun peaking over the clouds and buildings. I love the smell of fresh air. I love the smell of BBQ cooking for football on the weekends. I love how it just looks different outside. I am so thankful for Fall! I am so thankful for my God who created beautiful seasons of nature to amaze us with. The beautiful changing of the scenery is so astounding and speaks volumes of our God's majesty and glory. Who but our God? Wow. So what are you thankful for? Look around and I know you will find something.

Friday's Fave Five



I love being able to blog a little more!! :) Join Susanne@Living to Tell the Story for a reflection of your week.

  1. I got to crop all my pictures I was so behind on. I LOVE taking pictures and editing them. I have all of them caught up and I can do special touches to them now.
  2. Caramel Frappe. Enough said. ;) My husband brings me them to me at night when he gets off,not every night,but boy they are tasty!
  3. Hearing my boys say their verses. Daniel is really taking them in. Aaron repeats here and there. It makes me so happy. I want my boys rich in the Word of God! 
  4. Cooler temps when I woke up this morning. We will be in the upper 50's this weekend at night,that is. Not even close to winter yet. :)
  5. Meeting new people through my blog and Twitter. It's so awesome meeting ladies that love the Lord and share things for us all to be encouraged and challenged by!
I hope you all have a great weekend!! If I do not comment back on your blog,I'm sorry. I usually write and then have to get off to take care of the boys. 3 to be exact. :) One day I will be able to do more blogging though,right now I need to enjoy my babies.

Thankful Thursday


Join our host Iris@Grace Alone and share what you are thankful for this week.

I have so much to be thankful for everyday. I often forget that and I love this meme to help remind me. I am thankful for God's forgiveness. Oh, how I need it every day. I mess up daily and if not for His grace, well, where would I be? I thought I was good at extending that grace to others,until I have children. Why is that we get so much more angry at those we love for things they do? It's ironic isn't it? I have to ask God every morning and throughout the day to help me be gracious towards my children. It's hard to remember that when they knock something over time and time again after being told not to touch it. Or when you told them we cannot have a cookie until after lunch and they never hush about it and do not want to eat their lunch. Oh boy. That is when I forget how gracious my Lord is to me when I do something He asks me or told me not too. I'm not there yet in everything,but I am learning. I love my Lord and Savior Jesus for giving His body for a sacrifice and for God extending His grace to me on the cross.

Don't forget to read Iris' post and link up with us.

Sorry, if I do not comment. I usually right the night before and don't get to use blogger on my phone.

Thankful Thursday


I am so thankful for the Law Enforcement officers.  They take care of things physically when we cannot and that I am so thankful for. We had an incident where we had to call them out yesterday. Creepy neighbor that pops up every time we are outside is not a fun thing to deal with. Knocking on my door over and over when my husband leaves and you wait till he leaves to do it is not fun either. I am glad we have law and order in this country. So many countries do not have that and they deal with more horrible things than we have to daily. Remember our men in uniform as they go out to fight crime in your communities.
