'Tis the Holiday Season!

The holidays are quickly coming upon us and to kick it all off we start with Sophia's birthday party on the 15th of this month. It's so hard to believe my little girl is turning 4! She's such a sweetheart!


Then, on the 17th we will head out to Alabama to be with my husband's family for the week of Thanksgiving- and that's always a blast! We have a really great time. We actually celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas during that week because it's the only time we can all be together. Daniel's siblings all live in different states... Indiana, Michigan, Louisiana, Virginia, Alabama, And we live here in Ohio. Then December is packed with lots of fun Christmas parties with friends and family (hey! maybe we'll get to see eachother this year, Ami!). I love this time of year. It gives me the warm fuzzies. I love making things for family and friends. Ilove Christmas music. I love the snow--- I just LOVE it all!!! I especially love the true meaning of Christmas. What a gift that Christ was born into humanity, so He could know the things we go through, so He could know our joys and our pain, and so He could one day walk up Calvary's hill so He could lay down His earthly life here so that if we choose to, we can live eternally with Him in Glory! What a SWEET LORD I have!

Sad days ahead

Wow. What a sad day in America. My head is still spinning. You know, God IS a merciful & gracious God, but He's also a God of wrath & judgement. I fear America will soon be under the fierce hand of the Lord.

People think that Hitler was just horrible- and he was- but voting for a man that is for killing babies is just as bad. Our country slaughters millions of innocent little babies every year; don't think for one moment that the God of the universe will just nonchalantly overlook that. There's a judgement coming. You can count on it.

This is the day!!!

This is the day that the Lord hath made! I will rejoice and be glad in it! No matter what happens today, election day, God is still in control, He's still in charge, and He always takes care of His own.
Voting is such a blessing! What a joy to have this kind of opportunity! Some countries do not have the choice. Can you imagine? What a privilege we have here in the blessed USA. We must, however, choose wisely. This is so important! Our forefathers fought and many were killed so YOU could have this freedom. GO VOTE!
