I just can't seem to get enough of them... Its amazing how such little things can keep a person going! But then sometimes little things turn into big things, and it's incredible to see how God works! I've been learning a lot about the nature of God lately through a Bible study I'm doing... And every time I begin to learn something new about Him is just keep a going and going!! Its like awesome! He is so infinite and cannot be fully comprehended, measured, or limited! At least by me anyway! And He can do whatever He wants, whenever He wants to and we don't EVER need to fear that it won't be good!! He will do above and beyond our greatest expectations! How awesome to serve a God like that!? Knowing Him is life! And we can never over exaggerat Him or what He can do! One of the many things I've learned while going through is study is, is that the Bible is not about me its about God and what He has done and will do. So many times I open the Bible and ask God tha...

...I have a blog?!? I almost forgot! :) I will say, lots has happen since posted last. But now that the holidays are over, Marcus and Amanda's wedding is over, and sadly my Dominican republic trip is over, maybe I can slow down a bit and chance up on things and start making time to shave my legs again. (Ok maybe I'm not that busy, but I'm busier than I should be;)) But God in His almighty ways makes a way for everything and His faithfulness never ceases to amaze me. It seems every time I think I get to know God really well and He shows His mighty works the more less I really know about Him! And that's the awesome part about it! There's always something more and new for me to know about Him! And it just makes me want to pursue Him further! And that's exactly what God deserves! He wants us all in, and giving Him all the glory! My week gone to the DR was definitely the most eventful and memorable trip.:) It's always an incredible experience going down there......

This and That and things in between

Goodmorning blog world! :) I'm pretty sure Kansas has the best sunrises around! Sometimes I just like to sit and soak up the new mornings sunrise, and new mercies God gives me so undeservingly! Its hard to imagine a God who knows us all by name, gives us each a brand new start each day, to give us a new beginning, so long as we try and trust Him! And the only reason we are still here is because He has a purpose for us! And its going to be wonderful and so worth it!  Amanda had another shower this past Saturday. It twas filled with the best people and family around, good food, and SO many laughs! :)                                                                ...

One day Jody and I had a crazy idea (one of our very many:)), we bought our special cows and ourselves crazy hats. We dressed them up one day and had a photo session! Both Jody and I never recall playing dress up as little kids, so we decided that a girls gotta play dress up once in her childhood! :) Mom and dad thought we needed to have a little more work on out hands! But hey, we need to have alil fun once in a while!                                          Its so cool to be doing your job, passion, hobby all in one! :)

Giving Thanks

I often wonder what it would still be like if I would still be living in Illinois. If I would have missed out on all the special moments with my family and friends here. If I didn't have my dear close church family. All the times I spend coloring with larae, or playing the marble game with the bros, or teaching the kiddoes school, or our crazy cousin trips, and I could seriously go on and on! But happy news, I don't hafta worry bout not living at home! And I could never ever be so thankful for this! Granted, I very much enjoyed my time in Illinois and I know God had me there for a reason, and am blessed to have very many dear wonderful friends out there whom I miss dearly!  But especially I am so grateful and thankful to be with my most amazing family for the holidays! It's such a wonderful time of the year! I have so incredibly many reasons to be thankful! Most of all for my Savior, because without Him I probably wouldn't be writing this!  He is so Great and Awesome...
