But Now……. 2008-05-19 20:09:48 Our pastor preached on these 2 simple yet powerful words from the bible this weekend. I thought I would share them.

BUT NOW in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near though the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:1
Once you were not a people, BUT NOW you are the people [...]

Things I would LOVE to hear at my house…….. 2008-05-31 16:50:56 I have been a pretty lousy bloggy buddy lately. I just have been too busy and TIRED from this Fifth Disease. However, there are 6 days of school left, and then I know I will be an involved blogger again.
Until then I was thinking about some things I would like to hear at [...]
A stitch in the knee is saving me…….. 2008-06-04 20:51:38 A stitch in the knee is saving me from this crazy, busy life we live lately. Yep, SportTman got his first set of stitches last night! He was diving for a ball at batting practice before his baseball game, and hit a rock. It did a lovely job of slicing open his [...]
He listens… 2008-06-08 19:06:49 SportTman was outside playing wiffle ball with a friend today. It was only 98 degrees out, so he did as most boys do, he took his shirt off to play. After awhile I went out and in my stern mom voice, reminded him to put sunscreen on. He responded with such [...]

Weeding for a legacy! 2008-06-16 08:41:57 Last Friday on a hot day, we all got up early and went to pull weeds at someone else’s house! Oh and did they have lots of weeds, and it was one of those hot, humid, simmering summer days.
So what drives a family finally embarking on a relaxing summer break to get up early [...]
The $1,046 haircut! 2008-06-17 20:29:24 Check out how cool my hubby is!
The senior class president at the school we teach at, casually asked Drums one day what it would take to get him to shave his head. He had been teasing Drums about his “slicked back doo” for some time, and was wondering if he would ever [...]
The dog ate the cell phone……..almost! 2008-06-24 11:19:16 “Honey I can’t find my cell phone
have you seen it?” Drums yells out to me.
“I’ll call it, and we can listen for it to ring.”
So I keep calling his number as we both walk around the house trying to find his cell phone. We search all the usual places, in the car, [...]
Keeping it all in perspective….. 2008-06-22 07:03:20 I was complaining to a friend I saw out this morning while at a yard sale ( have I mentioned how much I love to yard sale?) that I am sick and tired of waking up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat!

OMG I am so embarrassed! 2008-07-04 07:27:17 The Inventor and I were watching our small town hometown 4th of July parade last night. There was a really cool float with a huge, blown up chain saw on it. I thought it was clever, so I yelled out, “Hey can I take that home! We could use it!” The [...]
The Brawl………. 2008-07-03 16:47:23 I witnessed such a sad event this past weekend. And as I get ready to embark on another baseball tournament weekend, I just felt the need to write about it.

Creation 2008 2008-07-01 09:44:28 The Creation
Festival is a special thing in so many ways. The first probably being a passionate crowd of 50,000-60,000 people standing to worship Jesus along side a hill in the middle of a field, in the middle of nowhere!
But there is so much else that occurs there. I want to share just a SMALL [...]

Outhouse technology 2008-07-22 08:37:46 I have been privy to the wonders of outhouse technology lately. I feel after encountering numerous outhouses at baseball tournaments, the Creation Festival, and this gem of an outhouse at the track I jog at, I am now a CEO ( Confirmed Expert on Outhouses). I remember back in the day when [...]

So ladies who exercises regularly, or semi-regularly, or once a month, or who even thinks about exercising?
Thinking is at least a start!
