Cookie Swap 2013


This year I decided to have a Cookie Swap
at my house.  So I made these fun invitations to
invite my friends to it.....

 
And then I had them email me their
recipes so I could make these fun
little recipe books to give each of them.
 
 
 
 Here is the first page of the recipe book :)
 

 
Then I decided to decorate the kitchen before
everyone came.  The theme was "Aprons"

 
I draped aprons over each chair so the guests
could choose one to wear at the party if they
didn't own one.

 
I found these fun gift bags with the chevron
design for the guests to take their cookies
home in...

 
My husband was helping me clean and get
ready for the party.  He decided to take
a break to get a cup of coffee :)

 
The girls are going around the table to collect
their cookies to take home with them....

 
Here is a picture of the table with the goodies
on them...

 
And a picture of us at the party :)  My husband
took the picture for us.  My mom was kind enough
to make the aprons (with the aprons on them) for
my door prizes.


 
It was a lot of fun and we had a great
time visiting and hanging out.  I
hope you enjoyed seeing the pictures :)

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...
