Beautiful Morning!

Today is a beautiful day in southern Alabama! Typically, this time of year, we wake up to a balmy 78 degrees. However, THIS morning was a clear, slightly breezy 66 degrees! Definitely NOT your normal Mobile weather for August - but we will take it! It amazes me how God can create such beauty in the middle of all of the chaos in the world.

Just a little about me - since this is my very first time ever to blog (I always read everyone else's blogs)! ;-)

I have 3 children - Forrest is 14, Ryan is 12, & Emily is 10 (going on 25). Forrest is the starting quarterback for his high school freshman football team, plays baseball, and LOVES the Atlanta Braves. Ryan plays baseball, basketball, sings, dances, & is in the National Jr Honor Society at his middle school. Emily is in gymnastics - but doesn't want to compete. We just do that for fun. She gets drug around to all of the games and events for her brothers, and likes to think she is the one in charge. (like most little sisters)

I am married to a wonderful Christian man - who shares my love of music! We both play the piano, sing, and he even writes music for himself (he usually won't let anyone hear it, though). however, I feel he does an AMAZING job at it! He also likes to build things - and does an incredible job! We recently gutted a bathroom & completely redid everything. He built the cabinets, cabinet doors, tiled the floor, tiled the shower, put glass tile on the countertop, and installed the sinks - all by himself! He is SO talented!

We have an adorable pet - Einstein - who is a Bichon Frise. (He & Emily are tied for who thinks they rule the house the most)

The purpose of this is just to put some thoughts "on paper" and keep a record of how God blesses us and sustains us through everything in life. It's more for my benefit than anything else - but if I happen to make a few new friends along the way, that would be great too!

have a WONDERFUL day in Jesus!
