Something really excited has happened since my last blog post,

~Begin compiling your guest list - around 350 people

~ Decide on a color scheme - cotton candy pink and chocolate brown.

Things we will be working to check off our list in the next 4 weeks:

~Decide style of ceremony - inside or outside wedding

I'm going to *try* to get around to posting our courtship story this week, but don't hold me too it!;)

3 Horses

2011-06-09T17:09:00.000-07:00

My brother's girlfriend, Helen has brought three of her four horses over to our house for the summer. I love having animals in our barn again! I'm missed having our barn and pasture filled with animals!

Here's a few pictures of these beautiful animals!:)

NEXT 2011 part 1

2011-06-02T18:39:00.000-07:00

Yesterday afternoon I finally arrived back home after being gone six days! It was such a wonderful time, spent with two of my favorite people, worshiping and learning about God!:)

Instead of driving down with people from our church, we decided to fly.
(Instead of a 10 hour drive, it only took 1 hr and 45min!:) This was my 1st time flying and I was SO nervous that we weren't going to make it! I'm really positive, I know. ;) Even thought I would never want to fly again, you have a beautiful view of God's creation!!

In the air! :)

Once we arrived in Orlando, we tracked down out logdge, found our driver and headed to the Shingle Creek!

The front view of Shingle Creek

The view from our hotel room!

I'm really excited about NEXT!:)

After we arrived we checked in at NEXT and then decided since we had 3 hours to go swimming. After changing into our swim suits and walking outside to the pool area, we found out that they had 3 pools! 1 family pool, 1 old peoples pool and 1 quite pool (which really should have been named the LOUD pool!;) We ended up in the quite pool, where Joshua Harris and his son where swimming.

The quite pool:)

At around 6:15 we headed down to wait for the doors to open. The doors always open 30min from starting time and people line up a whole hour before it's scheduled to start. When they open the doors open go crazy and run for the front seats! The 1st night I got squashed by some guy when the doors opened. ;(

(Just a side note, there were between 2,000-3,000 people at NEXT.)

Rebekah and I caught Joshua Harris walking by while we were waiting and decided to get a picture!:)

People waiting for the doors to open!:)

More people waiting for the doors to open!:)

Rebekah and I waiting

After they opened the doors, people finding their seats.

Worship!:)

After an hour of worship they have an hour of preaching. We had a wonderful group of preachers:
Jeff Purswell, Scott Oliphint, D.A. Carson, R.C. Sproul, and Kevin DeYoung. After the preaching which would end around 10:00, we would have a concert. We heard from, Reilly, Shane & Shane, and Generation Letters. I really enjoyed Shane&Shane and Generation Letters. Reilly was a little too loud and crazy for me, but they had an amazing violinist!;)
When we got to our hotel room to finally get some sleep, I pulled back the sheets to get in bed and there were black sticky stains! GROSS! We called the front desk and soon I had clean sheets and could finally get some sleep.:)

Abigail and I on Sunday morning!:)

Eating breakfast outside in the wonderful sunshine!

Once again waiting inline and waiting for the doors to open.

Sunday afternoon Abigail and I went swimming once again. I did not have a lot of fun this time. People just sat in the pool and worked on there tan and I wanted to swim!

After we went swimming we got dressed and once again waited for the doors to open!:)

One of the concerts from NEXT

It's getting late, so I will post part two tomorrow. :)

Gf Sandwich Bread

2011-02-12T17:22:00.000-08:00

GF, Dairy, and yeast free Sandwich Bread

2 1/4 cup my Flour Blend (found on my Gluten free resources page.)
3 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons xanthan gum
1/4 teaspoon potato flour - NOT- potato starch!
2 eggs
1 cup milk (cow, rice, soy, or coconut)
1/4 cup butter (melted) or canola oil

1. preheat over to 375F. Grease one 9x5-inch nonstick loaf pan.

2. Combine dry ingredients in large mixer bowl. With electric mixer on low, add remaining ingredients and mix until smooth. (Batter will be thick!)

3. Spoon into prepared pan and smooth top with wet spatula, if necessary. Bake for 50-55 minutes, until top is deeply browned and tooth pick comes out clean.

Since this made around 20 slices of bread, after it cooled I froze almost all of it. I tried it for the 1st time today from the freezer and oh my goodness it was just as good!!

Split Pea Soup

2011-02-03T13:18:00.000-08:00

Ingredients:
4 - 6 slices of bacon
1 large onion
2 stalks celery
2 carrots
4 clovers garlic
1 (16oz) bag of dried split peas (remember to wash the peas.)
8 cups chicken broth. (I did not have this so i used 8 chicken bullion cubs.)
2 bay leaves
1 tbsp dried rosemary
salt and pepper to taste.

1. Wash peas and set aside.

2. Place bacon in a large pot, and cook over medium heat until crisp.

3. Stir in onion, leek, carrot, and garlic; cook until the vegetables are soft, about 8 minutes

4. Pour in chicken broth.

5. Stir in slit peas, bay leaves, and rosemary

6.Bring to a boil and then turn reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until peas are soft, about an hour, stirring occasionally.

* I had to add about 4-6 cups of water, cause the chicken broth disappeared! I think my problem was I left it cooking on high too long. I was kinda of worried it would be change the taste, but it turned out fine. So, if you have to add water don't panic! ;)

Livging without

2011-01-17T11:45:00.000-08:00

*Just so you know gluten stands for wheat, rye, barley, spelt and several others grains!*
Most of my readers know I've kinda been on strange diets since I was 8 due to allergies. I've been tested for allergies several times and I've been to many doctors. I went on a gluten-free and dairy free diet after a doctor recommended it. When I was either 14 or 15 I finally got fed up with having to eat certain foods always having to bring my special food with me. It was frustrating! So I started eating everything that I was allergic too. For awhile I felt fine. Then all of the sudden I would feel kinda sick, and then this year my allergies got horrible! I could not eat anything without feeling soooo sick, but I still felt like I'd eating nothing. I was tired and had no energy when I 1st woke in the morning. It was hard to get anything done. Now, I know most of you are saying, that's so silly, just go back on your diet! A gluten-free diet is hard. But a gluten-free, dairy free diet is even harder. Anyway, in October I got tested for 150 foods. I came back allergic to gluten, dairy, cashews, and several kinds of seafood. By the time I got my test results back it was the beginning on November and I decided I would go back on my diet, in the new year so that I could get through Christmas and Thanksgiving. So, on January 1st, I started back on my diet. It's been hard. Shampoo, make-up, gum, toothpaste, and lotion, make up a huge list of items that contain gluten.(I know! You would never have thought these items have gluten!) It's been hard sometimes finding something to eat. (Because of the way my stomach is, I have to eat whenever I feel hunger, otherwise I get really sick.) So that's been hard finding something to snack on. It's also been hard cause everything cost twice the amount regular food! As I'm continuing to feel better, I'm also starting to think about the future. Since I feel so sick when I'm off my diet, it makes since to stay on it for the rest of my life.:) Which means lord-willing my future family will also be on it. So, I need to be spending time now finding out how to cook without gluten and dairy. It's hard and sometimes frustration with I think about all the things I can't eat! ;( But I think I would rather feel better then forever feel sick! Anyway, I think I've just rambled about this.;) Really I just wanted to let people know, because I'm going to start posting about cooking gluten-free and other things about living without. I hope you will continue to read my blog and follow me on the journey ahead!:)

Is listening to secular music wrong?

2010-09-14T11:17:00.000-07:00

Since reading the book Worship Matters by Bob Kauflin, I've struggled with the above question. I have a habit of listening to music, that's not bad, but is fluff. Kinda like reading a fluff book, you don't get a lot or anything out of it. A couple months ago, I decided to only listen to *strong Christian* and classical music. I only lasted a couple weeks until I fell back into listening to secular music. Now, the secular music I was listening too, was not the best music, but it did not involve, language and so on. It was just fluff music. ;)

*I said strong Christian music, cause there are lots of bands out there that say their Christian, but there music does not really have anything to do about God. A little like Britt Nicole's song Headphones.(Video.)I did not see anything bad about the song, but it's not like one of Chris Tomlin's songs. There is something so powerful with all of Chris Tomlin's music, that other bands lack. Kinda, like Pure NRG, they are Christians but how does dancing on stage singing footloose glorify God? God gives us talent so that we can give back by glorifying Him.*

I think what you listen too and sing, really matters! You might not think it bothers you and it's just music it won't influence me. But you are wrong. Everything you read, listen too, and watch will influence you, it's just a matter of time before you notice. If you even notice at all.

"Every time we open out mouths, we're leading others. Not just when we're in front of people, but all the time. We're counseling them. Communicating what's important and what's not. Letting others know whose words matter more - ours or God's. God wants our speech to be sound, gracious, truthful and edifying, no matter where we are or whom we're with." ~Worship Matters

From reading the above, I would say going around singing, songs like "Whiskey Lullaby" or "I told you so" aren't going to be showing to others I love God and He is my king! Do we want God's words flowing from our lips or the world's?~Worship Matters

" Too often we can be tempted to choose songs because of the music rather than the theological content. We need to realize that when words are combined with music we can be deceived. Music can make shallow lyrics sounds deep. A great rhythm section can make drivel sound profound and make you want to sing it again." ~ Worship Matters

"It's a source of profound encouragement to realize God gave us music to deepen and develop our relationship with him. The Father sings, the Son sings, and the Spirit sings. How can we keep from singing?"

I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. - Psalm 34:1

My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises ... Psalm 57:7.

I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to You among the nations ... Psalm 57:9.

O my strength, I will sing praises to You; for God is my stronghold, the God who shows me lovingkindness ... Psalm 59:17

So I will sing praise to Your name forever, that I may pay my vows day by day ... Psalm 61:8.

Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, my lips will praise You ... Psalm 63:3.

My soul is satisfied as with marrow and fatness, and my mouth offers praises with joyful lips ... Psalm 63:5

Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth, sing praises to the Lord, Selah ... Psalm 68:32.
.
I will also praise You with a harp, even Your truth, O my God; to You I will sing praises with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel. My lips will shout for joy when I sing praises to You; and my soul, which You have redeemed ... Psalm 71:22-23.

So what do you think?What are your views on/about secular music?

*In saying it's wrong I'm not saying it's a sin. Unless you are cursing or are singing songs that say sin (immoral things there is no God. so on.) are OK. It's just saying fluff Christian music it's not really God honoring.*

2010-07-06T17:32:00.000-07:00

So I feel like it's been a long time since I posted something other then a video or a short post!

I have been really busy the last month!

Here is a update on what's been going on.

1. It turned out that Grandmother did break a bone in her back when she fell at the end on May. We have had a really rough two months with her, but thankfully she is getting back to normal. She is still unstable and we have to be with her whenever she moves. We have started Physical Therapy and that seems to be helping her. She has started wetting the bed every night. So she needs a sponge bath every morning. (We are not able to get her in and out of the tub.) I have gotten that I can get her out of bed, bathed and dressed in 10min.(unless she is having a bad day, then getting her dressed may take more time.) It use to be really hard in the morning having to wake up and help her. But after thinking about it, I decided that it's good training for when I get married and have a baby. That Baby will wake me up in the morning wanting food and will probably be wet. It's defiantly really hard sometimes taking care of her, but I am thankful God has me and my family taking care of her! I have learned so many helpful things from her and am thankful for the time with her.

2. Since we started school late because me the planing for my brother's wedding in September and then having to take some time off to help Grandmother, I am still finishing this years school. I am planing on doing school all through the summer. I am still praying and thinking about whether to start college in the fall. I am really interested in CNA, but I would also be interested in doing something with kids.(Early Childhood Education.) I also LOVE teaching violin and would love to have more students!!Why is it so hard to know what God's plan is?

Random things I've been up too:

Since my Mom has been working a lot, I have taken over a lot of the cooking. I'm really enjoying being in charge of the house when Mom's gone!:) I am also trying to plan my day better and get more stuff done. Next week I have a music camp. I get to be the teacher's slave for a week.;) We are trying to get the Word out about my Dad's photography wedding website. Spending lots of time on my Church's music. I am in charge of the music and picking the songs out and all that wonderful stuff!;) I'm trying to stay a month ahead so that I have plenty of time to think about the songs. I'm also trying to send the song lyrics out each week so the families can go over the songs together. This past Sunday we had a little kid who knew one of the songs we sang really well, so he yelled it out! It was super cute!!!!

Well I'm going to end this post and go talk to my best friend! =)

The Sterling Family

2010-07-05T08:39:00.000-07:00

The Sterling family

We have a family in our Church (Trinity Baptist Church.) that the husband and wife sing and write songs together! They write their songs from scripture passages and put them word-for-word, to music! Anyway, I LOVE their music and the idea that it's all scripture! It's so easy for me and my family to memorize something if it's too music. So, I'm hoping that listening to their music will help me memorize scripture better!:)

Here is the link to their music and here is the link to their blog.

Behold Him there the risen Lamb,

My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ my Savior and my God!

If you have not read my 1st post about NEXT, then scroll down and read it. ;)

Worship was AMAZING at NEXT! Hearing 2500 people sing All I have is Christ, is something I will never forget and can't really explain what is meant to me other then saying, I woke up in them morning excited about worship and I went to bed at night excited about waking up and going to worship! :)

I thought I would share the songs we sang...I would highly recommend looking them up and listening to them! I have heard that they are not going to come out with a 2010 live worship CD, but put all the videos on Youtube.

2010-06-01T11:35:00.000-07:00

Like I said in my last post, NEXT was amazing!! I really can't put into words what it meant to me and everything that I've learned, but I will try. :) I will be doing more then one post about NEXT, I am waiting for pictures from my brother right now. (I used his camera.) I have decided in this post, so share what I thought of everything; what I loved about the conference, what I did not like so much, the people, the city, and also a few pictures that I am steeling from other people.;)

1. Worship was amazing! One night they have a whole string section and other night a chore! There is something amazing and wonderful about being able to worship God with 2,500+ people!!

2. It was so great to have four days to just focus on worshiping and learning about God. It made me realize, that I should be doing that everyday. Of course I read my Bible everyday, but I need to start really reading my Bible, praying more, and reading books about God and the Christian life. It should not just be something we do on Sundays or at Christian conferences, but all the time.

3. One night, during worship a lady sang the song below, this song really struck me and is probably my favorite song from NEXT. Here is the Link for it.

4. Bob Kauflin and I are best friends!=) I talked to him one night, about getting string music for the songs and he gave me his email and is going to try and get them for me! Then he and his wife happened to be walking to the conference center when I was too, so I started talking to him again about music! :)

5. I got some great Christian books while at NEXT. On the way home I started reading one called, Worldliness: Resisting the Seduction of a Fallen World! Even though I've not finished the book, it's already so amazing and so worth reading!I think I have underlined everything said in the book!;)

6. The conference has married couples called Ninjas who's jobs are to go around and bless people at NEXT. THEY WERE SO COOL!=) I had one Ninja come up to me and bought the book I was going to buy from the bookstore!!:)

Here are a few pics. that I've stolen from other people!

Two of the super cool Ninjas and Emma with a real Ninja star thingy!;)

It's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus
And all this is for You
For Your glory and your fame
It's not about me
As if You should do things my way
You alone are God
And I surrender to your ways

Jesus, lover of my soul
All consuming fire is in Your gaze
Jesus, I want you to know
I will follow you all my days
For no one else in history is like you
And history itself belongs to you
Alpha and Omega, You have loved me
And I will share eternity with You

Be Magnified

I have made You too small in my eyes
Oh Lord, forgive me
And I have believed in a lie
That You are unable to help me.
But now, Oh Lord, I see my wrong
Heal my heart and show Yourself strong
And in my eyes and with my song
Oh Lord, be magnified

Chorus:
Be magnified, Oh Lord
You are highly exalted
And there is nothing You can't do
Oh Lord, my eyes are on You
Be magnified,
Oh Lord, be magnified

Verse 2
I have leaned on a wisdom of men
Oh Lord, forgive me
And I have responded to them
Instead of Your light and Your mercy
But now, Oh Lord, I see my wrong
Heal my heart and show yourself strong
And in my eyes and in my song
Oh Lord be magnified

I wanted to share some amazingly cool books! They are kids books, but secretly teens and adults love them too!;)

Here are a few pictures from the books:

What I've been up too...

2010-05-21T10:52:00.000-07:00

Last weekend, I spent the night with Abigail. We watched Sarah Plain and Tall, since Abigail has banned me from watching them without her. ;) I liked the movie, but I will have to read the book again to see if it was like the movie. I can't remember. While I was at the Taylor's, I helped their volunteer fire department sell hot dogs and drinks. I just really sat on the coolers and talked to people! ;) Anyway, this man came up to the table, and looked at me and said,"Woman get me a hot dog!" I just sat their for a few seconds with a very shocked look on my face! ;) It sounded like something my brother would say as a joke! ;)

On Monday I had to go to the Orthodontist. I don't like going to them...I always have the most horrible headache after I go and then when I take something for my headache it makes me really sleepy! Anyway, my appointment was at 9:20am, and I got there early at 9:15! ;)

I brushed my teeth and sat in the chair. The dental assistant came over and took off my bands so that I could go brush again. It felt SO good to brush!:) Once I was back in my chair, the Doctor came and looked in my mouth and told me, that I would get rubber bands today!=) I was very excited!:) The assistant told me how to put them on and gave me two bags. Well, once I left the orthodontist, I took some Advil for my mouth. It hurt like crazy!! The rubber bands were pulling down my top teeth!;) On Tuesday night, my mouth started burning and it kept on burning till Wednesday when I stopped wearing the rubber bands to see if my mouth would stop burning. Well, it did stop burning and felt a lot better, so I called the orthodontist and they said to stop wearing them and that I might be allergic to Latex! They are mailing me latex free rubber bands!;)

Our family LOVES surprise muffins, so when I found a recipe for surprise muffins with a herseys kiss inside, I got really excited! Needless to say, they looked really look, but I did not like how the outside tasted...very disappointing. :(

Here is a picture of what they looked like inside:

Aren't they cool looking!

I am going to try to just make my own muffin recipe up and then put a kiss inside!;)

This Saturday I have the competition DMTA!

I have had lots of practices for that this week.

I feel so ready and will be glad to have it behind me!:)

Psalm 100

2010-05-18T05:37:00.000-07:00

¹ "Make a joyful shout to the LORD, all you lands!
² Serve the LORD with gladness;
         Come before His presence with singing.
³ Know that the LORD, He is God;
         It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
         We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
         ⁴ Enter into His gates with thanksgiving,
         And into His courts with praise.
         Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.
⁵ For the LORD is good;
         His mercy is everlasting,
         And His truth endures to all generations."

Worship Songs

2010-04-24T16:59:00.000-07:00

I am in charge of picking the worship songs for my Church. Of course I run them by the Pastor and the worship leader. Anyway, while looking up songs to sing for this Sunday, I found this song and fell in love with it! I am sure I have heard it before, but for some reason it really struck me and has been in my head all week. Here is the video and the lyrics are below:

We bow our hearts
We bend our knees
Oh Spirit come make us humble
We turn our eyes
From evil things
Oh Lord we cast down our idols

So give us clean hands
and give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Oh give us clean hands
and give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Oh God let this be
a generation that seeks
Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob
Oh God let us be
a generation that seeks
Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob

I also found these to song that I really love, here and here.

Love Comes Softly

2010-04-09T18:00:00.000-07:00

Last night we watch the movie Love Finds a Home. I hated it, the only reason I finished it was cause I wanted to see if anyone died!;) The only movies I did like watching in the Love comes Softly series were: Love Comes Softly and Love's Enduring Promise.

Here are several reasons I started disliking them after the 1st two movies.

1.They started having one of the main characters die in every film.

2. I got the feeling from the films, that they were saying Women and do anything and don't need help.The women seems head strong and bossy to the men.

3. The story line started going away from the books. I have read all the books and really liked them!:)

4. I don't think anyone in these films knew how to communicate!!! This drove me CRAZY!;)

OK, as of right now those are all my reasons. ;) The one thing that I did like in all these movies, were how the guys acted like gentlemen. :) Also, I watched all the movies in hope that they would get better...;)

I would love to hear your thought about these movies, I have not seen some of them in awhile. So these are just my thoughts from what I remember from them. :)

Womanly Dominion

2010-04-05T07:55:00.000-07:00

I just finished the book Womanly Dominion by Mark Chanski. I really loved this book and I would recommend reading it!:)

I wanted to share some things in the book, that really struck me while I was reading.:)

1. Godly Women, made in the image of God, must daily tell themselves to "Win it!"( play with all of your might in every encounter.) to the glory of God.

2. In such ways, a women is to dominate aggressively her environment, rather than allow her environment. to dominate her. She needs to work and play with a "Win it" instead of a surrender it mindset. She must rule and subdue, rather then letting herself be ruled and subdued. God has commissioned her to assert herself aggressively as a master over the teeming spheres of her life. God has not assigned her to sit on her porch swing with a pink parasol daydreaming what she might do "if only" the obstacles weren't so complicated. No! She's to get out there and do it with all her might!

3. God has assigned to man the primary role of head and leader and to woman the auxiliary role of follower and assistant.

4.the truth is that the ultimate purpose of marriage is nit to make us happy. Women who get married for the purpose of finding happiness are setting themselves up for almost certain disappointment;they seldom find what they are looking for. The trust is that happiness is not found in (or out) marriage; it is not found in any human relationship. True joy can only be found through Christ.

5.you must daily tell them (your children) the bad news about themselves- that they are sinners whose crimes against God doom them to be punishes forever by His just wrath in hell, and that these is nothing they can do by themselves to clean up their morally filthy condition. You must also daily tell them (your children) the good news truth about Jesus Christ- He came as the Lamb of God to offer up himself as a substitution atonement in the place of sinners. Whoever smears Jesus' blood on the doorpost of his soul by believing in him will have God's lethal wrath harmlessly pass over his soul on judgment day.

6. Dianne Chanski - "The Lord made me for his purpose, too. He made me a woman, a wife and a mother. He made me to serve. And when I serve, I feel His pleasure. And regardless of society's face, my child's face, or even my husband's face, it;s my Heavenly Father's face that drives me on. I now that He sees me serving, His smiles and says, "This is my beloved daughter in whom I am well pleased." When I serve, I feel His pleasure. "

7. Romantic feelings, like beach castles, soon crumble with the shifting sands. A couple needs something more solid on which to build a marriage. The God-ordained foundation for marriage is the covenantal vow.

8. A women of dominion will not permit herself to be bullied by her feelings, emotions, and circumstance. Instead, she will rule over them and subdue them under her feet, so help her God.

9. Dr. Laura Schlessinger - "Thanks God daily for such a terrific guy, mentioning specific qualities for which I'm grateful. Look for daily ways to be a blessing to my husband (trying to understand what pleases him, anticipating his needs, etc..) Take responsibility for my own emotional well-being;stay rested, don't over commit and then complain, stay in touch with friends with a positive influence. Stay focused on making a home for a family and remember that this is my(your) highest calling and responsibility, and that is has eternal value. The more I do this, the happier and more content I am."

10. Men love to be perceived as heroes and dragon slayers. We (men) love to rescue damsels and be admired for out chivalrous feats. When you view us like that, you become darlings in our sight. I know you think we're silly for wanted respect. But we think you're silly for wanted flowers.;)

We did it yet again!!:)

2010-04-04T17:05:00.000-07:00

The Power of the Cross

2010-04-04T11:02:00.000-07:00

The Power of the Cross
Oh, to see the dawn
Of the darkest day:
Christ on the road to Calvary.
Tried by sinful men,
Torn and beaten, then
Nailed to a cross of wood.

This, the pow’r of the cross:
Christ became sin for us;
Took the blame, bore the wrath—
We stand forgiven at the cross.

Oh, to see the pain
Written on Your face,
Bearing the awesome weight of sin.
Ev’ry bitter thought,
Ev’ry evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow.

Now the daylight flees;
Now the ground beneath
Quakes as its Maker bows His head.
Curtain torn in two,
Dead are raised to life;
“Finished!” the vict’ry cry.

Oh, to see my name
Written in the wounds,
For through Your suffering I am free.
Death is crushed to death;
Life is mine to live,
Won through Your selfless love.

This, the pow’r of the cross:
Son of God—slain for us.
What a love! What a cost!
We stand forgiven at the cross.

~Keith and Kristyn Getty

From WRAL:
Police say they charged a Pennsylvania man with public drunkenness after he was seen trying to resuscitate a long-dead opossum along a highway. State police Trooper Jamie Levier says several witnesses saw 55-year-old Donald Wolfe, of Brookville, near the animal Thursday along Route 36 in Oliver Township, about 65 miles northeast of Pittsburgh.
The trooper says one person saw Wolfe kneeling before the animal and gesturing as though he were conducting a seance. He says another saw Wolfe attempting to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
Levier says the animal already had been dead a while.

Update on Grandmother

2010-03-19T06:44:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone!

I just thought I should update you guys on how my Grandmother is doing.

On Tuesday night Grandmother came home from the hospital. This was really great, cause she was very mixed up in the hospital and needed to be home in her own bed! (My Grandmother has altimers, so she did not understand a lot in the hospital) Anyway, the only thing the doctors could find wrong, was a urinary track infection. So she is on medicate for that. She is still really dizzy and is holding her head kinda strange. We are not sure if that is just something from the altimers, the infection or something totally different. Because of the dizziness, she can't walk, get out of bed..etc without someone helping her to make sure she dose not fall. So we are with her all the time, but when she sleeps and then we have a monitor beside her bed, just in case she needs us.

If she is still not her self on Monday, we are going to take her to the Family Doctor and make sure she dose not have an inner ear infection or anything else going on.

BABY!!!:)

David Michael Garner, born @ 8:37 on Monday evening, weighing 11lbs. 3 oz. and 22 1/4 long.

Please pray!

2010-03-15T14:53:00.000-07:00

On Sunday morning I woke up to my Granddad yelling for my Mom. I was so tried that I did not think it was anything and rolled back over and went to sleep. 30min later I got up and went downstairs to the Grandparents room. My Mom was standing next to Grandmother, who looked horrible! I was still very sleepy and not really awake, but as soon as Grandmother started gagging I was really awake and run for a pot! When I got back with the pot, she had not thrown up and was saying that something was stuck in her throat, she also said she was really dizzy. She was still not holding her head up and not making eye contact. My parents decided to get her to the hospital and see what was going on. So they left for the Hospital at 8:00am. Since I had the song sheets for Church, my parents decided that Nick and I would go to Church and Molly would stay home with Granddad and the little boys.After lunch my Dad came back from the hospital and said that they were keeping Grandmother the night. Her blood pressure was dropping really low whenever she stood up. They still did not know what was going on, but had ruled out anything really bad. My Mom stayed last night with her, and at 5:30am my Dad came to stay with her so my Mom could come home and have a few hours to sleep before she left for the hospital to be with my Sister (Sarah) who is being induced today, after being 10 days late with baby David.

As of right now 5:30pm:

my Dad is still at the hospital with Grandmother. The last thing I heard was that she had a urinary infection and the Doctors think that is causing everything else. I have heard she may come home, but as of right now that has not happened.

My sister is 5 cm dilated , she has to get to 10 before the baby is born. She is doing a great job, but from 5-10 is normally the hardest part, so if you could please pray!

Ok..I have to end this cause my brother just came in and said I was going to the hospital to be with Grandmother....so if you could just keep our family is your prayers!:)

Thanks!

Duke ACC Champs!!! =)

Friday Funnies

2010-03-05T16:02:00.000-08:00

Molly: I can't seem to wake up at 6:00 anymore. I even put my alarm-clock in my pillow case so that I will hear it, but for some reason I still don't hear it go off.

Several days later: (Molly) I found the reason I'm not waking up with my alarm. I am somehow able too in my sleep, take my alarm clock out of the pillow case, take off the band aid I have on the snooze button (She has a band aid on in hope that she won't be able to hit the snooze button.), turn off the alarm and then put it back in my pillow case while I am still asleep! :0

Randomness

2010-03-04T05:29:00.000-08:00

So here is a little bit of whats been going on with me and other randomness:

1. I decided not to listen to any other music other then Christian and classical. I have liked going around singing songs about God instead of Fireflies...;) I think it's also encouraged me more.

2. I will be an Aunt..hopefully really soon!:) My sister is due tomorrow..so anytime now!;)

3. I have decided to stop eating wheat and dairy..I have had some allergys to certain foods in the past and thought I had gotten so I could eat those foods again. But sadly that's not happened...

4. I have started doing consumer math on top of Algebra...my amazing sister-in-law Jenn is helping me through Algebra..

5. I surprised my violin student and had a lesson.

6. I helped my Dad set up a wedding photography website...I picked the name!;)

7. My cousin Katie is getting married and I think I get to go with my Dad when he takes their engagement pictures! FUN!:)

8. This Saturday we have our concert!!! YAY!:) I still have to hand-make all there name tags...My chamber group will probably have to preform for a lot more people then I thought! :0

9. I will be turning 17 in 8 days!!:) YAY!;)

10. I have a violin competition some time (yes, I don't really know when....) and I don't have my song memorized...hummm

Prayers

2010-03-03T07:38:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, we found out a good friend Josiah Crumpler gave his life for our country during a firefight in Afghanistan on Monday, serving God and the country he loved. Josiah was a paratrooper with the 82nd AA division. Josiah leaves behind a wife, Shana, of 3 weeks prior to deployment and 2 stepchildren.

If you could please pray for his parents: Dennis and Pam Crumpler, his wife Shana and their two kids Hannah and Seth. Also, please pray for safe travailing for everyone including my Dad and a friend who is flying in from NY today, both of them along with the family, are driving to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware.

Draw Me Nearer.

"Draw Me Nearer"

Meredith Andrews

For your nearness Lord I hunger
For your nearness Lord I wait
Hold me ever closer Father
Such a love I can’t escape

For your nearness I am hoping
For your nearness Lord I long
Have no need of any other
I have found where I belong
Yes, I have found where I belong

So draw me nearer Lord
Never let me go
Closer to your heart
Draw me nearer Lord
Draw me nearer Lord

Worship Matters

2010-02-09T08:05:00.000-08:00

I just started a book today called Worship Matters by Bob Kauflin.

So far I have really enjoyed reading it! I wanted to share with you a few quotes that stuck out to me:

1. Worship isn't just an opportunity to use my (your) musical gifts. It's more then a heightened emotional experience or a way to make a living (worship leader).It's way more then what we do on Sunday morning. Worship is about what we love and what we live for. It's about who we are before God.

2. Worship matters. It matters to God because He is the one ultimately worthy of all worship. It matters to us because worshiping God is the reason for which we were created.

3. We'll never impress God with out musical expertise or sophistication. What impresses God is a broken and contrite heart that recognizes our weakness and puts our faith in the finished work of Christ.

4. God wants us to realize that that point of out practice isn't to receive the praise of others. It's to bring Him glory.

5.The goal of practicing isn't doing something until you get it right. It's doing it until you can't get it wrong.

My Super bowl party!:)

2010-02-08T09:52:00.000-08:00

So yesterday was the super bowl..and my beloved Colts did not make it....:(

I don't really watch football..mainly because I don't understand it, but I do love the Indianapolis Colts!

My cousin had a Super Bowl party at his house..which Molly and Nick went too...I think he is going to post pictures on his blog... I thought about going..but then it hit me that I would be the only girl watching the game..and since Mr and Mrs. Page, their little boy and my cousin Andrew was coming over, I decided to stay and play with the little boys. So that my parents would get some time to visit with the Pages.

Here are some pictures form our time together:

Andrew hiding during hide-in-go-seek!:)

Andrew and Matthew

Daniel..posing for the camera!:)

Daniel and Matthew kept hiding on my bed.

When someone would come after then, they liked to jump off the bed!:0

I decided before someone jumped off my bed

and broke something...we should play something else!

Andrew and I

After several tries at a group pictures, this is the best one we got!;)

Just for laughs!:)

2010-02-05T13:14:00.000-08:00

*looks at the Taylor's and dies laughing* ;)

My room

2010-02-03T14:07:00.000-08:00

Today, my Mom was cleaning the little boys room with them and Molly was cleaning her room, so I decided to go clean my room!;)

I started on my closet cause that is what was the messiest! You see, the close I ware that I hang up always seem to land in the bottom of my closet and not hanging up!;)

Before:

After:

After I got my closet clean..I decided to do under my bed!:)

I found some picture albums...

my scrap book..

and two of my Grandmother's hats!:)

After under my bed was clean...I had to clean the rest of my room!
Here are some pictures of when I was done!;)

Snow!!:)

2010-02-01T04:39:00.000-08:00

On Friday night our family set up and waited for the snow. Once it started falling, we turned off all the lights in our den and with the glow of the fire watched it fall. It was SO beautiful!!:)

Saturday morning we woke up to I would say between 7-8 inches.

Here are some pictures :)

Snow firefly!:)

Beautiful leaves!:)

Matthew sledding.

Our sled.

Samuel Sledding.

Looked at that face! SO cute!!:)

Even cuter!;)

We we came inside from sledding, we ate lunch. Not knowing what to do after lunch, Molly found Nick's beautiful hair to play with!;)

wow!:0

Nick wanted his hair in a top knot...that did not really work!;)

My Mom and Molly decided to do his hair!;)

*speechless!*

Once we finished playing with Nick's hair, my Dad and Nick went to help a Mr. C get unstuck!:)

Well that was our day yesterday, hope everyone had as much fun in the snow as I did!:)

2010-01-25T04:35:00.000-08:00

This week it was my Dad's turn to preach in the Church. He preached about being Thankfully and praising God not just when times and dandy but even in horrible times!

As I was sitting there in Church and I thought of this song..

Just for laughs!:)

2010-01-23T03:50:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, I was typing curve your pinky...but instead it came out curve your kidney..

:)

wordless wednesday :)

2010-01-20T17:05:00.000-08:00

I Could Not Ask for More!

2010-01-19T14:57:00.000-08:00

What to post!?!

2010-01-18T09:56:00.000-08:00

I have not idea..what to post!

Don't get me wrong...my life right now is crazy busy and exciting, :)

but if I told you all about what I was doing and what was going on...you would probably fall asleep!;)

So I have decided that since I have not done a Christmas post to do one.

Here is a picture taken Christmas morning...

That is right I got a phone!! It's SO cool and I love it!:)

On other news I got a email!! You may ask why I am SO excited about this, well I have always shared the family's email, so having my own email means that my whole family won't be read my emails!:)

Cap gun

2010-01-11T17:25:00.000-08:00

On Sunday afternoon I found my little brother Matthew in my room, trying to tape his plastic cape gun back together. "What Happened!" I asked. Matthew replied very seriously, "I hit it 30 times with a hammer and if broke!" Me, "You did what!" Matthew said, "Jake Baker said that if you hit the gun, the orange tip will come off, so I hit it but it would not come off and then I got a hammer and hit it, but instead of coming off it broke!

Moral of the story, Don't hit your plastic cap gun 30 times with a hammer...it will brake! :)

New violin song!!:)

2010-01-09T16:59:00.001-08:00

My teacher and me have spent a week trying to find a good violin song that I liked!

After listening to hundredths of songs...well it felt like hundredths!:)

Enjoy!:)
