Saturday Drive

This past weekend my husband and I both had the
day off, so we decided to go for a little drive
to try out a restaurant that we have been hearing about.

If you are ever in the Boise area you should take a little
drive to Hidden Springs, Idaho.  It is such a cute
little, out of the way town.

Here are a couple pictures of the buildings.  This first picture
is of the restaurant we ate at :)  It is called 
Dry Creek Mercantile!


I love taking pictures of scenery and fun little places.

Aren't these pictures so pretty?  It was such a 
beautiful day this past Saturday. Perfect weather
for an outing...


I love the colors of the trees changing for fall
and the grass is so green here.


Some of the buildings of the town...



This is an overall picture of the restaurant...



This is a picture of the front of the restaurant.  They
also sell a few items since the nearest stores are
about 30 minutes away.  Nathan found the 
stash of Laffy Taffy :)


And another room of the place :)  Notice in the
background the garage doors that are now all windows?



This Pepsi case is the display above the front door...


They had some fun antiques they were using to
decorate the place...






Check out the awesome water glasses they use...


And, of course, you can not go out to eat without
showing pictures of the fabulous food that you are eating.

We both decided to get the special of the day, a 
Beef brisket Sandwich.  I had Chicken Tortilla soup 
with mine...



And Nathan had onion rings with his...


We finished it off with a scoop of ice cream that was 
also delicious :)  Hope you enjoyed our little
Saturday drive. Check out the Dry Creek 
Mercantile if you are ever in the area.

Walk with God

In my current Bible study, we are reading in Genesis.  At the beginning it is talking about how God comes down in the cool of the evening and talks with Adam and Eve.  Can you imagine that?  God literally comes and walks and talks with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.   Then in Genesis chapter 6 verse 8 states "Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord." and then in verse 9, it ends by saying "Noah walked with God."  Think about that for a minute.   In a world where everything is going crazy and God is questioning why he made the world because there is so much evil in it that He is going to send a flood and destroy the earth.  Can you imagine the world is as evil as it gets but the Bible states "And Noah walked with God."  That is such a profound statement.  Can you say that about your life?  No matter the chaos in the world or what is happening around you, people look at your life and all they can say is "And Valerie walked ...

Victory

Exodus 14:14  says "The Lord will fight for you and you shall hold your peace." When you are in the middle of a trial, it feels like it is never-ending.  Will we be able to conquer?  Will the battle plan actually work?  The devil just keeps attacking and the battle feels like it just won't stop.  Even when we know the battle plan is solid and we know what to do, it is hard.  At times, God tells us to hold our peace and He will fight the battle for us.  Do you know how hard it is to just surrender control to God?   God has been dealing with my heart lately that we need to start proclaiming the victory over all situations.  Over the sickness that we are fighting, over the stressful situations that you may be facing, just proclaim victory over your life.  We need to proclaim God's victory.  He wrote the battle plan.  He knows what your future holds.  God even understands the stress from the middle of the battlefield.

Trust in God

Today while watching Superbook with my children the theme of the episode was to trust in God.  "Trust in God and He will show the way."  Do we really understand what it means to trust God?  Can we truly comprehend this statement?   It's easy when things are going our way.  It can be easy when things aren't going our way, but life is still going well.  However, do you still trust God when life is hard?  When everything seems to be going wrong in life?  Do you trust God through the hard stuff?   There is an old time song that says "The God on the mountain is still God in the valley.  When things go wrong, you know that He will make them right.  The God of the good times is still God in the bad times and the God of the day, is still God in the night."   Think about the words to that song.  No matter what, God is still God.  He still has control over the outcome.  Recently, my mom and I were talking an...
