In Search of a Hobby...


Absolutely nothing is happening. I have fallen into a routine of just getting by. I have a list of stuff I should do I guess I am just not in the mood to get any of it done. Mowing, dishes, laundry, cleaning the car, organizing this house... Can you blame me for not being in the mood to do that stuff?

Jacob is teething again. I feel so bad, I hate not being able to fix what is wrong. I know that this is just a part of growing up so I just got to suck it up and try make him feel better.

Life is good though, I have a beautiful son and a loving husband. I am blessed. Jacob is wonderful, he is the reason I get out of bed in the morning. David cares so much for his family, all he wants is the best for his family.

I need a hobby. It needs to be an inexpensive hobby though. I am thinking about doing some scrap booking, I want to do a scrapbook on Jacob's first year. That wouldn't take much time though so I am looking for ideas. Gardening season is over so that is out... Hmmm, what should I do to keep myself occupied???

The wedding planning is still underway. I am still working on the reception site. Next is finalizing the church details. Then it's on to the bridesmaid dresses... A never ending list.

Blessed are those who find the the rainbow captured in a bubble in the sink full of sudsy dishes...

GOD Bless These Boys...

Happy 8 Month Birthday Jake!!!!!!!!

Jacob is 8 months old today. Wow, these last 8 months have flown by. Feels like just yesterday I took him home from the hospital. Now he is crawling, pulling himself up, babbling, eating a variety of solids, and getting upset with me every few minutes. I can't believe that in a few months he will be walking and talking.... Where did my baby go?
Today I am thankful to have a beautiful son.
Happy Birthday Jake! Mommy loves you.
A person's life can change completely in one day and in 8 months they won't even remember what their life was like before that day....

Minnesota is crying today

My prayers are with the victims, survivors, and the families of those who fell with the bridge in Minneapolis.
I may live in Grand Forks but my home is and will always be Minnesota.
When the news came on and I seen the bridge collapsed and all the cars in piles my heart sunk. No one ever thought this could happen, we live in America things like this shouldn't happen.
... Dear Lord, Please take care of the victims of the bridge collapse in Minneapolis. Please hold the families of those who perished. Please give Minnesota the strength to rebuild. Thank you for giving the heroes who helped so many escape the wreckage the courage to stand up and help. GOD bless us all on this terrible day. Amen
