The Lord is near. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. ~Philippians 4:4-9

Our family is a circle of strength and love, with every birth and every union, the circle will grow, every joy shared adds more love, every crisis faced together, makes the circle stronger

Finally... a trip to the apple orchard

Sam and I have been wanting to go to Scotts apple orchard for quite some time and havent been able to for one reason or another!! Finally yesterday we went when he got out of school!! Yum.... Apple Cider Slushies, they are the best!! They were out of candy apples... guess that means we'll just have to go back again :) We bought a small bag of red delicious and a small bag of granny smith which is my favorite!!
Takin a trip to the apple orchard is just another tradition that I love about this time of year!

Thankful Thursday

Today I am so very Thankful for the sunshine. On the way to take Sam to school it was absolutely beautiful, the sun shining down through the clouds and the thick fog. It was truly a beautiful morning and after what, 2 weeks of rain that is much to be thankful for. Still looking forward to cooler fall weather ahead!!


So thankful that Sam's school got to participate in see you at the pole this week. To be able to meet together at the flag pole at school and pray for our country and our community together with classmates is AWESOME!!
Thankful for all the things that go along with fall..... the cool crisp air..... mums, pumpkins, corn stalks, hay bales to decorate with! Its my favorite time of the year and the beginning of lots of fun times. We always have so much fun going to the pumpkin patch and all the other fall festivities. Oh and need to make a trip to Scotts apple orchard too.... apples, apple cider, and of course a few candy apples!! and Alabama football!! Can you tell I LOVE FALL!!


As always I am thankful for my wonderful family, friends, including all my bloggin friends!

Habakkuk 2:3

These things I plan won't happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, wait patiently for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed. Habakkuk 2:3

Tonight has just been one of those nights......and this verse continues to gives me hope!!!!

Please Pray for the Sullivan family

say a prayer for this family, i dont personally know them but found out through a friends blog that I read www.bandssullivan.blogspot.com Sara who was pregnant with their first child was diagnosed with breast cancer during the pregnancy and passed away not to long after their baby was born. My heart just breaks for this family!! Please pray for this father and baby.
