For Today...

Outside my Window...A BEAUTIFUL fall day. Blue skies, warm sun, lots of color. aaahhh.

I am thinking...that I'm going to try something new in my crockpot soon and going to use it WAY more often.

From the living room...Will diving into some books. Clutter. Always clutter.

I am thankful for...the blessings God gives at JUST the right time. He's never late.

From the kitchen...school papers, school pictures, calender, bills and, of course, dishes.

I am wearing...blue jeans, white shirt, and my shoes? why, I don't know.

I am reading...Just finished The Hiding Place - LOVE IT. Great perspective. My Bible. Just started Shepherding a Child's Heart...

I am hoping...that it's not forever until we see our Cali. families.

I am creating...a plan for an almost costless Christmas, a grocery budget that is so low it's a bit scary, and a photo book for some friends.

I am hearing...God's voice telling us to be patient and wait. The quite of my apartment with kiddos resting. But the noise of the people upstairs...again.

Around the house...things still in boxes 'cause there's no place for them, organizing to be done, love abounds.

One of my favorite things...long chats and quality time with good friends. ...and coffee.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...dinner w/ friends, riding w/ a friend to a friends for a Partylite Party, some play time outdoors in the wonderful fall weather, church, FPU on video, meal planning, coupon-clipping, lots of busy work, some exercise, cleaning of bathrooms.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...

A 5 generation picture of the women in my family.

Grandma, Nanny (now with the Lord) holding Emma, me, and my mom.

Taken in Arkansas ya'll...watch out for them chiggers!
