 My family recently moved to a new area about 10 minutes up the highway. We now live in a cul-de-sac. Let me tell you that living in a cul-de-sac isnt the same as living on a normal street with neighbors to your right and left and the folks across the street. You normally just talk to your neighbors to your right and left and occasionally the ones directly across the street. Not the same rules in a cul-de-sac! Within our first week there, we met just about all 7 of our neighbors. 2 of themRead More....

Since blessing bags are now one of my ministries I will continue to do, I am always thinking of how I can make them better. My last blessing bags had deodorant in them but I couldnt dare keep that in my car with our Texas summers! So I had to take that out. This round I decided to give them hygiene items but also some tools that could benefit their quality of life. I got to thinking of what praRead More....

 So last week was Teacher Appreciation week. The kids wanted to participate and they should…their teachers deserve it! Well seeing as there are 5 kids at my house, I didn’t want to do a gift a day. That can add up really quick! So I did some research and found some good ideas for them to pick from. I told myself they all had to do the same gift to make it easier. Of course they all didn’t want the same gift so I let the bigger kids choose 2 different ideas. Madelyn didn’t have a choice Read More....

This is Nevaeh and a few of the girls getting ready and making sure they had EXTRA glitter in their hair! Read More....

God has really been working in my life and transforming me to be more like his image :) I am a work in the making and it’s not something that coRead More....
