Beautiful Lady



That's my Grandma.

Thoughtful, kind, polite, loving, witty, talented...the list could go on and on.  She went to be with the Lord on Thanksgiving Day.  It's not a total surprise, but it's still hard.  She was 93, we moved her to the nursing home in February 2010.  She had been at home until then, with help.  This picture was from her birthday, in April.  She looks so frail and had gotten even more so in the last couple of months.  But her will was always strong! 

Today, we have the funeral...while I'm so sad I cannot hug her neck, hear her say I love you, kiss and hug my boys, listen to her funny stories, I'm so happy she is enjoying her new home...Heaven I tell you!  Praise the Lord for that, it brings about a Peace that our minds cannot comprehend...yes, that's the Peace of God that passes all understanding.  Tears of sadness and joy are flowing from my eyes. 

I lift my eyes up to the hills, where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, maker of Heaven and Earth.


Have a Beautiful day friends

I'm going to.

Happy Anniversary to Me...

and my awesome Husband!  16 yrs ago today I married a wonderful man who is more than just my husband.  I thank God for him and his laid back manner, he totally makes the balance in our relationship, I am always the one "wound up" while he brings me back down to reality!  LOL

I can't believe that 16 years has gone by so quickly.  He is such a blessing to me and for that I'm so thankful.  If the next 16 years go this quickly...HOLY COW!

Happy Anniversary JB....Love you Much!





1 Corinthians 13:4-6
Love is patient, Love is Kind...

Have a Blessed Day!

What's Happening

Well, after 16 years we are getting an opportunity to live in the country....Praise the Lord!
Our house is FOR SALE...but we have to sell our house to make this opportunity work for us~I would appreciate anyone who wants to join with us to BELIEVE that our house will sell and sell quickly so this can all happen!

I am getting my opportunity to Call those things that be not, as though they are in this little journey and have complete trust in God and his timing!   We totally believe that this is all orchestrated by God~Join us if you will, we appreciate it!

So much going on...ran another 5K race a few weeks ago and improved my time by about 1 1/2 mins.  Very excited about that!  Need to get my family pics done for Christmas pics/cards and cannot seem to find the time for it.  Maybe today...we are going to a wedding in OK...at the Marland Mansion and I'm hoping to sneak in a pic of my family before the wedding since we will all be dressed up...the grounds are just beautiful there...we shall see. 

Praying that you and yours have a beautiful weekend.  Give thanks to the LORD, for he is GOOD and his LOVE endures forever!!

Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him.  He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.  Psalm 62:5-6

Sad Cats

Well, even though my Wildcats lost to the Pokes...it was still a Gorgeous day and we had a BLAST at the game!  If we had to lose to someone...I can handle the loss to the Pokes...As a "state line" gal...they are a favorite team when the Cats aren't playing!  I have lots of family and friends who have gone to OSU and/or are huge fans. 

Some pics from our great day...


Me(right) and some friends before the game

More friends, tailgating
