Trick-or-Treating




We took the kids T-O-Ting for halloween to about 10 house, family and friends. It was ok until we went to Adam's uncle's house lol. He was dressed up at Jack Sparrow from POTC, his wife as Elizabeth and his daughter a witch, needless to say Cohen was scared. He loved my in-laws' neighbor's house, she has all the battery operated Halloween toys. Super annoying but the kids LOVE it. Her house is one of the busiest in the whole community. We are all enjoying the candy stash!

On saturday I went shopping with my mom and the kids. Adam was doing so welding for our neighbor and finishing our winter wood. It is finally all in the basement! We had my parents and brother's family over on sat. night so I had asked Adam if he got a minute, could he clean up. When I got home my house was spotless! He went into manaic cleaning mode and did everything but the bedrooms! I have trained him well!

Another Life Lesson Learned

I am tired. I am tired of giving all without being filled back up. I am empty, my needs have all been placed on the back burner. I have got to start taking care of myself properly. It is okay to put your needs first. I am learning that things that others classify as selfish, are not.  I am not selfish to spend extra money on healthy food to nourish my body.  I am not selfish for loosing myself in a knitting project or a Xbox game, in order to combat the stress that I feel and instead of tackling the dishes in the sink or the mess on the floor.  I am not selfish for telling my kids to go play and give me a little bit of quiet.  I am not selfish for telling others no, I cannot help with that right now. I am not selfish for finding a place where heart is blessed and happy. I am not selfish for taking 30 minutes a day to do yoga. I am not being selfish when I need a break from my husband, kids and dogs. I am simply learning and choosing to refill my cup s...

Let My Life Be The Proof

I struggle daily, with this at a follower of Christ. Am I speaking words that speak the love of Jesus? Am acting how Jesus would act when I am faced with trials and temptation?  Am I showing love to my fellow humans, even if we do not agree on certain topics? Am I being to a light those who need it most? Are my words being followed by actions of love? If I do not love, I have nothing. Jesus told us that the greatest of these is love. He wants us to love as He loves us. He calls us to love.     ''If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. If I speak God’s Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love, I’m nothing. If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don’t love, I’ve gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what ...

So Excited!

I went to Wal-Mart last week and they have their Christmas stuff out!! We bought 3 tree ornaments. I have already bought gifts for my brother, brother in law, father in law, sister in law, my mom, nephew, and the 3 kids my kids play with all the time. I am so proud of myself so starting my shopping so early! I am desperately trying to be finished before the rush starts. It was so fun to watch Cohen get excited about the display trees and their lights. His eyes were full of wonder and excitement. I cannot wait for the holidays to begin!
