I Was Tagged!

My bloggy friend Lindsay-Ann at The Cross-Stitch House recently tagged me to post the 10th picture in the 1st folder on my computer. I have to be honest, the 10th picture in the 1st file was hubby and he doesn't much like his picture posted (even though he has okayed the one in the sidebar). So I switched things around and put the 10th picture from the 2nd file. Here it is.

This is KLS in 2004 at the old Disney Welcome Center in Ocala, Florida that has since been closed. She would have been 12 years old here! Naturally, we were on our way to Disney World!!

Now, I tag: Beth at Playin with the Paulsens! and Cathy at As the World Flops and Sherry at Life at the Parsonage and Nina at Portugal Bound and Cathy at Latte With Me

Have fun girls and thanks Lindsay-Ann for the tag!

I strongly suggest everyone to read the above blogs when you have time, they are totally awesome. Also, anyone else who wants to play along, consider yourself tagged by me.

SkyWatch Friday

Below are some pictures I took of the sky Wednesday evening. I was standing in the Church parking lot when I took the first one.
This 2nd one I took from my van. I stopped for a red light and thought the sky was so pretty, so I grabbed my camera (which I almost always have in my purse) and rolled down the window and stuck the camera out and snapped a shot before the light changed. I thought it turned out pretty good. Maybe I should take more pictures without trying so hard. lol
This flag is at a car lot in town. Every time we drive by I talk about how beautiful it is. It's absolutely humongous. This time we pulled into the lot next door and I jumped out and grabbed a couple of pics.
I bet people think I'm crazy when they see me in my van. If you read the previous post along with this one, you'll see I'm probably either singing or taking a picture as I'm going down the road. :) Click on the SkyWatch button above to join in or to view other pictures of beautiful skies from all over the world!

Songs I Love To Sing

This is a medley of choruses I love to sing on my way to work!

"This is the day, this is the day
That the Lord has made, that the Lord has made.
I will rejoice, I will rejoice
And be glad in it, and be glad in it.
This is the day that the Lord has made.
I will rejoice and be glad in it.
This is the day, this is the day
That the Lord has made."

"I will enter His gates with thanksgiving in my heart
I will enter His courts with praise.
I will say this is the day that the Lord has made.
I will rejoice for He has made me glad.
He has made me glad, He has made me glad.
I will rejoice for He has made me glad.
He has made me glad, He has made me glad.
I will rejoice for He has made me glad."

"Ahh, Lord God, thou hast made the heavens and the earth by thy great power.
Ahh, Lord God, thou hast made the heavens and the earth by thy outstretched arm.
And nothing is too difficult for thee, nothing is to difficult for thee.
Great and mighty God, great in counsel and mighty in deed.
Nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing.
Nothing is too difficult for thee."


No matter what, after singing all three of these, I feel better and I'm more ready for the work day than when I got in the car. As the old time preachers say, "If that don't light your fire, then your wood's all wet." So if you ever see me in the car and notice my lips moving, there's a good chance this is what I'm singing. Why don't you join me and we'll both have a better day after praising the Lord.

Books to Read

I was given 2 books to read tonight. I walked into church and 2 ladies had books for me. Everyone knows how much I love to read. One is "Finding Favor with the King" by Tommy Tenney and the other is "The Relationship Principles of Jesus" by Tom Holladay. They said they are great books that they couldn't put down. I can't wait to read them. Thanks Jan and Ida!

Have any of you read either one and if so, what did you think of them?

Memory Lane

Come for a walk with me down Memory Lane!
And if you have a "Memory Lane" post, head on over to Scottsville to join in on the fun!

This is my mother-in-law and my hubby is the older boy, he's 5 and that's his little brother who was about 9 months old. This was Christmas time of 1966.
