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.

Miracles and Faith

Have you seen miracles in your lifetime?  I have and without a doubt I’ve known it was only God’s grace and Him performing that miracle that the situation changed.  I have been raised in the church and have seen many different miracles throughout my lifetime, but one of the more recent ones was when my youngest son was born.  He was born at 30 weeks but had quit growing at 28 weeks gestation.  He was only 2 pounds and 5 ounces when he was born.  Now, I know that science and the medical field did everything they could, but I also know that it is a true miracle that he is alive today because there is only so much that humans can do on their own.  It is a miracle that I survived that pregnancy also.  I remember being at Heaven’s gates the night before my son was born.  I was on bed rest in the hospital for 12 days before my son was born.  That is one of the hardest things to go through when you have another child at home that you can’t be there ...

New blog

This was a challenge trying to get this blog set up, but I wanted to start a blog about my long-distance dating journey.  My boyfriend lives about six hours from where I live so it has been an interesting challenge trying to figure out the logistics of when we can see each other since our work schedules are completely opposite.  We met about eight years ago when he lived in the same town that I live in.  We attended the same church at the time and that is how we met.  After dating on and off for a few years he accepted a position in a new store that was opening with his company and decided to move away.  We remained friends and talked on the phone occasionally but decided that dating just wasn't going to work at that time.  After a few years, we decided to try the dating thing again and now it has been about three months and we see each other about every two weeks or so and talk on the phone to each other just about every night.  Well that is enough hi...

Impossible!!!

1 Peter 1: 7-9 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see  him  not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 9 Receiving the end of your faith,  even  the salvation of  your  souls. What is your impossible situation?  What is your I need a miracle situation?  I heard these lines in a song recently and it got me to thinking about how sometimes situations in our lives seem so impossible and out of control.  We just don't know what to do about it or what to think about that situation. I read the above scripture in 1 Peter last week and it got me to thinking about how gold is refined by going through fire, diamonds are mined from deep within the earth.  We wouldn't have the beautiful jewelry and precious me...
