Project 365 Week 28

If you remember, I got sick last Sunday evening.
hmmmm.
I didn't take photos while I was not feeling well.
So this week starts on Wednesday, when I was feeling better!

Wednesday, November 25
Our drive to Oklahoma for Thanksgiving.
This is the casino just past the Texas / Oklahoma border.
It is huge.
And easier to see than the sign that says,
"Welcome to Oklahoma"
which is what I was going to take a picture of, but missed!

Thursday, November 26
Rebecca and Aunt Debbie and Uncle Mike's dog Isabelle.
(Izzie for short)
They were together most of the day.

Except when Rebecca was daydreaming about the horses in the backyard!

Uncle Fred (my husband) helping
his great niece with her shoes!
This cutie pie is the newest edition to the family!

Here is the chaos right before dinner!
Matthew was in charge of the turkey and spilled a little of the drippings into the oven.
We teased him relentlessly about the smoke!

Friday, November 27
My sweet and beautiful niece.

Saturday, November 28
We came home so that we could start decorating for Christmas.
One of our family traditions is to have homemade sugar cookies when we decorate the tree.
Rebecca (and Josh was here too) did the honors.

Sunday, November 29
While Fred and I were out to see a movie (we went to see New Moon)
Rebecca put the garland on the mantle.
She also did some of the other decorating also...for which I was VERY grateful.
Josh came over to see the finished project.
(well, he was really bringing her home for the evening and we drug him in to see the house!)

Another week in pictures!
Blessings,

A smoked house for Thanksgiving...maybe it is an American tradition...I caught some pot holders on fire as I was trying to take something out of the oven...smoked us up a bit. Looks like a fun Thanksgiving.....lots of little cuties involved. Hope you have a grand week Liz.

I Got A Feeling....

that this is gonna be a good, good year!!!!!! I have great expectations! And I don't make New Year's Resolutions, but I do like goals. And prayers. I know God will answer prayers, and there are a few that I look forward to seeing the answer to, hopefully in 2010. It would be great if love and peace and forgiveness would win out in a few broken relationships. I am still praying. And I am look forward to how my marriage will become more wonderful, as it does every year! My health should improve since I am training for a triathlon. I lost 23 pounds in 2009. I look forward to losing about 15 to 20 more. Completing the Caveman triathlon with a couple of my very good friends is a goal that I am excited to achieve! It is going to be fun to see what God is going to do because I said "yes" to Him and stepped up into Home Group leadership with my church. And my church.... I have to say I am amazed and thrilled to love my church! What a blessing after so many years of being a s...

Gone

A fire burns behind me I run to keep ahead Those who I once cared for becoming cold and dead Red and black the flames grow high Smoke rises in the air The pain of my unworthiness Seems more than I can bear In front of me I see the sun I long to feel it's heat The iciness inside my heart has paralyzed my feet I see the moon, I see the stars They swirl and dance for me I see the hole, the big dark hole Where one star used to be

Behind Those Eyes - Chapter 8

We are completely loved and accepted completely. That is the chapter title this week and it is such good news! It is news that I have heard before, but news that I was glad to hear again. Lisa's story at the end of the chapter touched my heart...you know, the one where she woke up the morning after her prayer asking God to let her know that they were okay. The song in her head, that really was in her heart is awesome. I have had those times. Recently, I have had quite a few. The last few months (years maybe?) have been a little difficult. Some days I have wondered, "Does He REALLY love me?" And then some sort of confirmation will come along, He will let me know that we are okay and my heart sings. His love is gentle. His love is perfect. His love is comforting. And his love is absolutely unconditional. My blog time is shortened this week due the death in my family. My post is short, but honest and heartfelt. This week, I had a couple of conversations with a good...
