A YEAR IN REVIEW........be not forgotten

This year so many wonderful and terrific things happened this year that they will forever be memories in our mind and hearts.

I want to always call out to my God and Thank him for my family.....Thank God for the life that I live for him and for him dieing on the cross for me.

This Year began with me turning 26 in January, with 9 days later my wedding anniversary.

February: my Hubby and I and my sister went and saw Jeremy Camp in concert.....amazing.

March :the 6 of us headed out on our first vacation ever to Disneyland, we were hooked.

April: Mine and and my younger sister have our younger brother training for the marines.

May: Our little Gabriel turns a whopping 3...still has Blondie hair.

June :The 6 of us are pretty much spending every day in our pool due to the Hot Arizona weather.

July: My sweet sister has a rainy 22ND birthday.

August: My first born wonderful son Aidan started Kindergarten..and yes I cried my eyes out.

September: The 6 of us take another trip to Disneyland...I told you we were hooked.

October: We carved our pumpkins and enjoyed Halloween at church.

November :Had a quite calm and nice family dinner.

December: Christmas came and went and we had our very first snow fall ever!!

This next coming year, all I want is to have my walk to be closer to God, and to show my children the same walk, to build my marriage more in the eyes and direction of God.

TARDY TUESDAY

I found this in a old book, this was in the year of the 50's!
When I refound another magazine that had the same thing I took the test, and now a days a mother would make $1, 024.00 a week...gasp.and gasp some more.
People always tell me "How nice it is for you to be able to stay home". Yes I am very lucky but it is never a picinic in the park, like some might seem.

I lvoe my life, I never imagined it this way, but I love it.....
I knew I wanted to be a wife, but when I was younger I didnt see me down this road, but God never misleads his children.

I am trying to get mt year in review by tomarrow!!

I have alot of goals to write downa nd pray over for the New Year.

Have a blessed Day!

WEEKEND REVIEW

Church performance, Was last Sunday Morning(I know I am a little behind) and my Addy did so wonderful...even though we really couldnt hear them!

The day after Christmas, we got snow...SNOW can you believe it, I pray and fasted for this and my wondeful father blessed us with SNOW!!

Christmas Morning...it took my sister and I hours beyond hours to wrap all the presents, and it took like 10 minutes for everyone to get done unwrapping them, Christmas started at 7am and it wasnt the kids who woke us up it was the other way around.

Christmas Eve...Santa unloading the good's.

Part of the family minus Aidan who was watching a movie when the picture was taken...Gabriel has the most puckered lips I have ever seen.

All in all it was a wonderful Christmas, we how ever are doing (trying) things differently next year, maybe California??? Let's try Disneyland on for size and maybe lego land? What is the point of buying the kids things that within days or even hours are broken or they lost interest? Family is more important, being together as a family doing things together as a family.

But it is just a thought out in the air for now.....God may have other plan's for us though!!!

UNTO TO US

Good Morning everyone, I really hope everyone of you had a wonderful Christmas! It is hard to believe that it came and now it is gone.....my Christmas was wonderful not because of presents, for our weather, here in Arizona it is always Sunny and bright on Christmas...blah!! I had been praying for beautiful cold winter weather.....Ask and you shall recieve!!! And that I did!!!! It was dark, cloudy, cold, and windy with a little slush/rain most of the day!! What could be better then to wake up and Thank God for the beautiful day!!! Christmas here started at about 7 int he morning and it wasn't the kids who were up early more like me! I couldn't sleep the night before because I was so excited I felt like a kid again!!! Once I told them Santa came, they shot out like a bullet!!To make a long story short Christmas couldn't have been better I have a mess to clean up today that is going to take an army....but it is just what happens with 2 boys and new toys!

Yesterday afternoon, while my ham was in the oven, we turned all the Christmas T.V. off, and sat the boys down and read then Luke 2! Now here in our family, we let the boys believe in Santa (I don't really think in the harm) but he are sure to put Jesus into the moral too, now to some they may scratch their heads but hey my kids get it!

Aidan: "Mama how does Santa know everyone about us"?

ME: Well he doesn't really know alot about us, but Jesus does and he tells Santa where to go"?

Aidan:"So Jesus tells Santa where to go?"

ME: "More or less, before Santa leaves the elves pray over him for protection".

and so on!!!! But the moral of the conversation Aidan understands that yes Santa may bring presents, but Jesus is all about Christmas!!

Have a Blessed day............I really need to down load my camera too I promised some pictures!! Well then it looks like I have tomorrows post!!!

IT'S NOT WHAT I PROMISED BUT I AM POSTING

I don't like Coke at all, but when I see these old ads they make me want one more than anything!!

I 'm dying here I can't wait to give everyone their presents...I am about to bust at the seam's!!

WORSHIP DAY

May God bless you all today, I will post tomarrow!!
I Love you all so dearly!

STARTING IN THE YEAR 2009

Good day folks,
Today's post was sub post to be about Aidan's performance the other night, but my heart took a different turn and I am going to go with this post.

My sister and I are very faithful viewer's of Jon and Kate plus 8 every Monday, usually we miss it, but never fear I have DVR and we will watch it together Tuesday morning. The most recent episode on Monday, my heart and my sister's.... were broken after the show was over a tear or few were shed.

Then it spoke to me "Get involved".
They didn't do it for publicity but more for themselves.
They went and donated their time and love to the children at St. Jude's Hospital.
So starting this New Year that God will give us, there are no resolutions going to be made, but more of a challenge and a goal. Starting from January 1- December 1 I want money to raise and donated to the St. Jude's fund! Next Christmas it is all about giving to other's we have everything and more then what we need, and we are lucky, but there are family's out there going through fear, and hurt and sadness I am not saying that just because Marisa is going to do something everything will be different, We do not want a pat on the back for it, this is something that I want to do........I need to do this. You are all more then welcome to join and start in also, here is the web site to get acquainted with.

Please pray for these children and family's..............My God is BIGGER then any form of cancer or sickness!
