If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Fall Photo Link Party

Click the above button to join Veronica and Daniel at Adventures of D and V in their Fall Photo Link Party.


I saw this fall decoration on the way home from work.

The leaves are just starting to change around here

These trees are a little farther along in the color changing process.

This is at our church campgrounds.  I've been going here since I was a little girl.  Give it another week or so and this will be really colorful.

Not a whole lot of colors, but love this picture anyway. 

Another picture on the way home.
This goes to show you, you can find a beautiful burst of fall colors any where, even in the middle of a Taco Bell Parking lot.

How about a caramel green apple sucker?  My daughters love these in the fall.
  
Hope you will join in and play along with us.

Wednesday Hodgepodge



1. In what ways do you indulge yourself?
One way we indulge ourselves is eating out several times a week.  0It makes for less work at home, which gives me more time to indulge in reading and blogging, etc.

2. Have you ever taken a cooking class? Any interest? What type of class would you most like to try?
No, I've never taken a cooking class and I really have no interest in it except maybe if Paula Deen was teaching her southern style of cooking.

3. What does it mean to be a good citizen?
Vote when you have the opportunity and obeying the laws of the land and truly caring about the people who live there.

4. 'Tis the season of the political advert...do these ads influence your vote?
No, I don't think they really do too much.  Mostly they just irritate me.

5. What's something you see today that makes you wish you were a kid again?
Seeing my parents aging, makes me wish we could all be younger again and that they could have the strength and vitality they used to have.

6. What's your least favorite cliche?
Even after looking at a list, I couldn't decide.  I think I actually like cliches.

7. What percentage of your Christmas shopping has been completed? How does that make you feel?
 0% and it's early yet, so I feel fine about it.  Ask me again at Thanksgiving....

8. Insert your own random thought here.

Weekend Wrap-Up

Kerri babysat for Carina Friday night and then again on Saturday morning. She is so adorable but she cried alot. She is not used to taking a bottle so she wouldn't eat. So she was hungry and cried when she wasn't sleeping. Finally she drank her bottle about 20 minutes before her mommy picked her up. Quite the experience for us. haha But isn't she just the cutest little thing (when she's asleep)?



This is the afghan I made for her.  I forgot to take a picture before I gave it to her.  But her mom brought it to our house so I could get a pic.  It was so sweet to hold her Saturday morning while watching a favorite movie and she slept.


Hubby and I went to dinner Saturday night at Logan's Steakhouse while Kerri was out on her date.  Hubby and I are starting to experience some times of empty nest.  Have to say I'm kinda enjoying it.

Sunday night before church we saw some hot air balloons.  This one flew right over my head and they were low enough I could actually hear them talking.  As you can see, you can even see up inside the balloons.  There were 3 or 4 more in the area too, but I had to go in for church and couldn't wait on them to fly over.  So I just took some pictures of them at a distance.






I was a wonderful weekend and guess what, it's not over yet because today is Columbus Day and I'm off today too!  Yay!!!

Friday Fragments

Mommy's Idea

This week has gone pretty fast.

Monday - I spent the evening working on catching up on my Bible Study (it's not a very good idea to save the whole weeks worth of study for the last night). Loving this James study.

Tuesday - Ladies Bible Study. Such a great group of ladies, plus I get to see Carina and her mommy. Love holding that sweet baby girl.

Wednesday - Went to dinner with hubby at Jimmy Johns and then grocery shopping. Came home and couldn't stand the thought of watching the debate, so we watched NCIS and NCIS LA on ON Demand.

Thursday - Went to the Homecoming Parade. Met some friends and had a lot of fun. Came home and hubby had made dinner and I did a Bible Study (I'm determined not to get behind this week). My friend's son is on the senior homecoming court. Here are some pictures.

My friend's son.  Isn't he cute?

Not a great picture, but this young man is in my Sunday School class.

Disney Fun

Thought I'd show just a couple of photos from Disney today. I may do this from time to time.

I love this character, Edna from "The Incredibles".  I would really like to have this painted on my bathroom wall, so when I get depressed about how I look, she could tell me I look fabulous Darling!.  Ha  The actress that does her voice is Hetty on "NCIS LA" and I love her on that show too. She makes me laugh

Kerri with my favorite "Cars" character....Mater

Kerri and Peter Pan.  I love it that my kids still love to have their pictures taken with the characters.  See Disney brings out the kid in all of us, even teenagers

Tracy and I...we always have to get a picture in the bug-eyes!

I love the Fairy Godmother!  I could so play this character in the parks when I retire.

Kerri with her grandparents - my husbands parents.

I love getting photos of the castle from other places besides Main Street.  I thought about using this as one of the most beautiful buildings in the Hodgepodge yesterday. It makes me happy every time I see it.
If anybody's interested you can check out my Youtube channel and see some Disney videos I've downloaded at TCKK1957.

Have a great day!
