Loving This Week...Here's Why!

What a GREAT week this has been! On the heels of 2 prior weekends filled with serving the Lord and serving others....I have been charged to say the least! Life is GREAT and I could not be more thankful! I haven't blogged as much this week but it's just been to darn pretty outside and I literally ran out of time to blog! Sometimes that is NOT a bad thing! Hope you all have enjoyed the week as well!

Job 33:4 For the Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

2. Listening to Bro. Don Burley speak the word during our Touched Twice Dedication Service! He is amazing and knows how to truly get you fired up for the LORD! (Sorry the video is so blurry - my phone doesn't take great video! The important thing is the word and THAT you can hear CLEARLY!)

3. St. Patrick's Day Party! I held a mini party for the kiddos on St. Patrick's Day. We aren't Irish but the kids love a party! We had green food, green chocolate milk, an indoor putting "green" and costumes! Sadly Andrew was sick and not about having a party. :-(

4. Letting the Lord lead me! I am praying about something and feeling led to help in a new area for me. I won't say what at this time but I would like to ask for your prayers as I decide what to do. I am praying GOD uses me and leads me to make the right decision and the one which honors and praises Him.

5. My Little Soccer Star! Caden started soccer last night at his first practice! He did so well and is so excited! I AM FINALLY....REALLY AND TRULY.....A SOCCER MOM! :-)))))))

I am thankful he loves it and is having so much fun!!!! Mommy is so proud of you Caden!
