Our Labor Day Adventure

It has been a wild ride  this Labor Day weekend....should we or shouldnt we  for   over  2 weeks of deliberating....  I   love our car,   it has everything on it I ever wanted,  sunroof,  leather,   a newer radio with bluetooth and all the digital  gizmos  one could ask for,    and  I loved  its looks..

  But it is  12 years old and   has  over  120,00o miles....   so   we  finally  jumped over the moon and  bought a new one...  We are on our way to    make the trade and   even though it  is a more moderate  model,  it is   fresh, new...er, heheheh, and  has   very low miles, and  will be a safe  and   durable ride  when we  go see Little Birdie in a few weeks time..

So off me go!

Organize for Christmas

For me  if Im not  completely ready for     Christmas  by December  then I  can really  get    stressed...so  with 32 days to go  til  December  it makes sense for me for  get organized with a good Christmas calendar...   you wouldnt believe how  mu calendar  fills up  anyway  in an ordinary month... but the holidays   are  especially  crucial  and I certainly  dont want to miss any of the marvelous  activities   that are available to me...just took a cursory glance at my December calendar and I can already tell i  am  almost behind in planning!
  Better get at it!   To help me I have found the most delightful and  beneficial  site...Organized Christmas!
This  site is choke full of  helps  to  make   Christmas not only  heart felt but    organized  which is  going to be a new  concept to me....

 BTW! This is the cutest  site to  demonstrate how to make your own  Christmas planner.   I cant wait to go to Michael's in the morning to  stock up on some supplies!

Anticipation

Alright, I realize that  it isnt  Christmas yet...  my goodness, it isnt even Thanksgiving....  but I love   the yuletide season so much  I  am  thinking Christmas  all the same....   and am so joyful this season  having  my surgery  behind me and  feeling better everyday...  that I am  very expectant.... and am  just thinking homey thoughts of baking and decorating and planning... so  I am  dedicating  this new  themed blog  destination   as my  go to place to  anticipate....     I am fairly exploding with  excitement...

Happy Saint Patty's Day

I missed the big celebration in town yesterday. One of the largest mid-atlantic parades was held to celebrate St. Patrick's big day!

It looks like a grand time was had by one and all!

Don't you Love Women's Ministry

Our's is the best! This morning we celebrated A Brunchful of Blessings! The Family Life Center was transformed. The food was gorgeously presented and delicious.
The ministry teams created a program filled with fun, teaching, and hand's on delight. We saw a lively production contrasting the Proverbs 31 Woman of yesterday and today!
Then we were taught to create a wonderfully easy Christmas treat to give away over the holidays!
