Gym stories
Today I ran about 3 miles at the gym and did some weights…can I tell you I was exhausted by the end of it all. So I went to take my shower at the gym and in the shower next to me I heard this little girl and mom. The little girl said to the mom, ” Next time I will remind you to bring your razor because your legs are hairy mom!!!” The mom started to shush the little girl and say,”don’t talk so loud!” It was so funny. I was laughing so hard. That sounds like something my kids would say.
The next few days are going to be so busy for us. And I am trying to get Bryce ready to go on his trip. I am serious I just seem busier and busier. I am really trying to cut back on stuff and just when I feel like I am…I get slammed with tons more stuff to do.
This past weekend we painted the rest of the inside of the house. I told Tony lets just do that hallway…and before you know it we had done the hallway, stairs, playroom, and the 2 hall ways upstairs and part of the living room. It was so much work, but I am happy that it is done. I still need to do some touch ups but it looks really good. We also got the gutters cleaned out and the branches trimmed away from our house. Me and my hubby work so well together. 
Okay I am off to a baseball party…
Crafty Daisies
So I just completed my tea towel for my swap partner. I think I did a pretty good job considering it was my first time to stamp and then stitch something on.
I hope she likes it as well.
Sweet Spirit
I was driving with my son Chandler and he said ” mom i heard it was going to rain and we were going to have “funder” storms”
ME: Really, well that is good the grass needs the rain
Chandler: I am not scared mom
ME: That is good, why are you not scared?
Chandler: Because Jesus always sits very close to me and I just have to talk to him when I am scared. And then he talks to my heart! And mom did you know that he sits on my bed too while I am sleeping.
Then A few weeks earlier. He was talking to my other sister Hope who is studying to be a nurse. He was playing with her stethoscope. He had it in his ears and then was trying to listen to his own heart. He said to her, “Hopey I can hear Jesus talking to my heart right now”
I look at just those 2 stories and think to myself, “wow I am getting the point across to them!” I am so happy that he gets it even at a young age. That he understands that Jesus does talk to you, and that he is always with you. His faith in Jesus is so genuine and pure. He has so much faith. The other day I was talking to my mom on the phone about something and did not think I could do something. I guess he over heard much of my conversation because he came up to me and said “Mom we just have to have faith because the Bible says that you can even have enough faith to move a whole mountain.” Wow!!!
That is what God wants, for us to have that kind of child like faith!
Rain
It is pouring rain here. I love the rain. I loved it when we lived in Costa Rica and it would rain every day on our tin roof. Makes me want to drink coffee and read or cross-stitch, or take a nap. I just laid the kids down. I worked outside in the yard most [...]

MRI
So tomorrow at 1 my oldest will be getting an MRI. He will have to be sedated. I am kind of nervous about that. But I know that these pediatric doctors do this every single day. I spoke with the anesthesiologist tonight and he made me feel good about everything. They will also be drawing [...]
