I've been tagged, and.....

Alright everyone Jennifer tagged me and I have NO idea what I am supposed to do. So if anyone would like to fill me in that would be great. Now on my last post I told you guys about my new nephew, (yea) and the Tea party was coming up. Well the Tea party was great!!!. We had such a good time. The ladies at the church turned one of our gyms into a garden. They did a great job. Alright I need to do my quiet time tonight. They had family fun night for the school (at Monkey Joe's). So needless to say everyone is VERY tired, and will be going to bed EARLY.

Family....

This is the new member of the family, Justin. He is brand new today.
He is having a little nap, it has been a big day.
The Lord has blessed my sister and her family with this wonderful baby boy. I am so proud of both my sisters, they are such a good mommies. Having my sisters are such a blessing to me, I seem to find that where one of us are weak, the other two hold up the strength for the other.

I know I have not been on here for a little while, sorry, sorry. Well my church is having a Mother Daughter tea party, fashion show. And I was nominated to make the candy, I thought no problem, I have done these 100s of times. Well not 320 of them. So that is what I have been doing for three days. We are so excited about it. Lydia Grace can't wait, Lexi bug doesn't get to go this year. So I will take lots of pictures and post them soon.

Now the big news, my sister had her baby today (Justin) he is so precious. The funny thing is that her other son Jaylen, his birthday is TODAY too. So both of her boys birthdays are on the same day. He was due next Friday, and they were going to be a week apart. Well, no

he decided to come early. So my Mom and Dad have been more than blessed with grand children. I think more than they thought. Lets take a look at the role:

Jordan 9, Jonathan 8, Jaylen Reece 5, Lydia Grace 4, Cameron Joesph 2, Alexis Riley 1, and Justin Raymond (new)

Do you see a pattern in the names and ages. Lots of "J" names and each set one year apart.

And most of the middle names start with "R" or "J". A name says a lot about you.

Now David picked out Jonathan's name, because his middle name starts with a "J", (I wanted Jackson). So I picked out Lydia Grace because her grandmothers name is Linda, and the other grandmothers name is Rebecca Gail,( David wanted Alexis).

In all of that I just new I wasn't going to have any more children so I said if we ever have another girl, we can name her Alexis. Well the Lord blessed me with another girl, I thought he would forget the name thing. I said lets name her Bella, he QUICKLY reminded me about our agreement. And it was fine, it fits her perfectly, and she still got her middle name with an "R" (like on of the grandmothers.)

Now remember I said I didn't think I was going to have any more children, well after I had Lydia Grace, all I could think was she has to have a sister. Now it was mentioned but no plans were made. Then I found out Christmas morning, we were pregnant.

Like I briefly mentioned at the top, my sisters are like no other. Now you know who I called at 5:00 am, Christmas morning, my sister. That was something I was going to have to ease into with David.

Anyway my SISTERS, we do everything together, I could not imagine how life would be without the greatest thing as a sister. You can tell your mom things and your cousin things, but it is still not the same as what you share with your sisters. I love it that my girls get to experience going to the Christmas show together, to the beach, their prom days, Oh my, their wedding days, all with each other. I love it that my girls share a room together, Lexi already starts to cry if Lydia Grace walks out of the room. She just yells out Ydia, Ydia, meer. My sisters and I will call each other 5-10 times a day, just to say hey do you know what is at target, or Something so funny we laugh so hard that we are crying, and no one else would even understand. I can call my sisters and be laughing so hard, that they will start laughing before we even know what the other in laughing at. Oh I could type for days about sisters. How we would lay in our beds talking all night, or making mud pies at granny's. My kids get to feel all of that, how lucky am I as a mom to get to have that.

Oh , my Lord has giving me something so wonderful, my parents, my sisters, a wonderful husband and now my children.

No Worries.....

This are the pictures of my tattoage that I told you about a while back. I got the idea from my friend Amy, thanks girl. Now that I know how to add pictures I can show you. This on says " As for me and my home we will serve the Lord"
Here are my new curtains, and all my tea pot and cups. I just love them.
OK, this is in our living room, it says " Christ, the center of our home, a guest at every meal, and a silent listener to every conversation.

Aren't they pretty? Now one of my good friends from church sent this to me, it is a site that you put in your birthday and it tells you your bible verse. How neet, everyone has a bible verse by your birthday. So try it out, it is really cool. http://www.birthverse.com/
Something else I wanted to share with you that I read today is, All of our money says In God we trust". Now how often do you pay attention to that? Well just think, every time you pick up a penny, or a coin, just think God has dropped you a sign to trust in him. Or when you are just glancing down at your money while waiting in line somewhere, and you read that, God is telling you to trust in him. I think that is something everyone, doesn't take the time to do. Trust in him, when you give him total control, you do not have worries. He will take care of what you need, it may not be what you thought you wanted, but in time you will be thankful. So the next time you are trying to make a decision, or worrying about a problem give it all to him. If more people would do this than there would be less ulcers in the world.

Patience.....

Well usually I don't post twice in one day, but I had to ask for a little prayer for my husband to have a little patience today, he had a wreck this morning, someone ran him off the road. It totally messed up his truck, so he is in a rush to get another one, and he has a couple of cuts on his head. (And will not go get them checked out) You know how they are, he just says, it will be alright, and the last time he did that he ended up with staples. So needless to say he is trying to rest in peace and quiet, yea right not around here, (spring break). So hopefully he will have a little Patience today.

A helper......

This was just a few he was smiling in.
Now look at this, David said he needed a refill,
and this is what the brought, with a bib.
How funny!!!

I opened my bible back to the beginning to Genesis 2:18 The Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him."

Now this is something we have heard over and over again, but this really stands out. I have really been studying on how the bible says a wife should be. And no matter what our Friends or the TV says, God made us to be mans helper. Now this is some-what of a hard task to take on, especially when I don't want to keep my mouth shut (heehee). But it seem to get easier each day, and I love it, I love being the wife my Lord says I should be, having my husband make all the decisions, (weather I think it is right or wrong). Now I still give my opinion, but in all that I have been reading, it shows how to give it in a different way. Yes our husband are to make the final decisions, but the things we say and how we say them make a big difference. We have a bigger influence on our husband than what we realize, because they listen a lot more that what we think. This is something that really touched me more and more this past weekend. We had a GREAT time at Disney, even though some of the time we were looking at new trucks at the show to buy. But I did get some reading time at the pool, and it is really funny how the more of Gods word you read, the more you can't stop reading. So needless to say, the time spent with my husband was really wonderful, he was like a totally different person. In a good way.

Some of Davids buddies and their families were on the trip too. So we took two vehicles, to all drive down together. So needless to say I had to share a little bit with the ones in our car, on the way back. Now this was something they were asking me questions about too. Wow. I was sharing the word with these big tow truck driving men, who at the end of the trip said " I need to start going to church." Wow that was something.

Be silent, be still......

I wanted to come on here to tell everyone about my trip, and how wonderful it was, but my heart is heavy with something more important. When I got onto all the blogs, I read about a Godly family, who is in need of our prayer more than anything right now. Visit there blog
www.audreycaroline.blogspot.com. So now I will just take time to be with them in prayer, for that is what should be done. I could not imagine what this family is going through right now.

Today is the day........

I am leaving tonight!!!! I have been doing so much the past few days trying to get ready. Well everything except packing. Ya know you want everything to be spic and span before you leave to go on a trip. So needless to say I still have NOT packed. I have got to hurry so I can get to my bible study. The laundry had been CRAZY!!! And you know I couldn't help, as I was cleaning the kids rooms, I had to start going through their clothes. Out with the old in with the new. So in the process of all the cleaning, I decide to do that. What in the world was I thinking? So now all I have to do is mine and Dave's closet. Whatever! When I get back from Florida, the kids and I are going to the beach. Disney was just slipped in there. Oh I am going to miss everyone. Please pray for us to have safe trips, and hopefully I will be able to blog while I am at the beach.
