Birthday Wishes

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to Briana
Happy Birthday to you!

She may never see this, but I'll say it any way. I am so glad she married our son.....she truly is the one we have prayed for ever since he was a little boy......God has not only blessed our son, but has blessed our family with her presence. She is such a joy to be around and is easy to talk to. She loves God with all her heart and just enjoys life.

Thank you Jesus for Briana. Thank you for bringing her into our lives. Thank you for the grace that flows through her life. Thank you that she walks uprightly before you and choses to live for you each day of her life. I pray that you bless her abundantly and that you reveal yourself to her as she goes about her day. May you never leave her side and may she always know your presence in her life.

Briana we love you and wish you the best birthday ever.

I've been Tagged and I'm Ready

Yeah!!!!! I've been tagged......Here goes

Seven things you never knew about me and maybe now wish you didn't. Or as you put it...Seven strange/weird/crazy things about me:

1. Always was afraid I would miss the rapture because I wasn't good enough or didn't pray the sinners prayer right, or I would miss it because I wasn't doing what I was supposed to do. I now know that it has nothing to do with what we do, but everything to do with my heart being right.

2. I'm a list person. Have to have a list. Don't want to forget anything......I have been known to forget, and it was because I didn't have the list with me. What is worse, I have to do everything on the list IN ORDER. Enough said there.

3. Hate to multitask. Hate it with everything in me. I will do it if I have to, but please don't make me. I just can't function. I get very frustrated when I can't finish one task at a time and see it to it's completion.

4. I used to play with Barbies until I was 13. That was when my mom told me I was to old to play with Barbies and then I stopped :0( I had the playhouse and used to make my sister play with me only she had to be Ken and I would get to be "in control" and boss her around. Older sisters can do that you know.

5. Oops that's another one. I am the eldest of 5 siblings......I guess that is why I always like to be the boss and be in control.

6. I am a neat freak. Everything has to be in order. Can't stand anything out of place. If it is out of order I feel like I can't function and I'm "out of order" if you know what I mean. I mean really everything has a function and everything HAS ITS PLACE right :0)

7. Because i am such a neat freak, once while growing up I shared a room with my sister. She was obviously the opposite of me, yes a complete slob (but I loved her anyway). I was so mad at her one day I took Silver Duct Tape and taped the closet off and our bedroom and told her she could not under any circumstances come on my side (unless she cleaned stuff up). Mom didn't like that to well, neither did sis.

Well there you have it. 7 things you didn't know about me and now you do....... I tag all of me and little picket fence

HOW TO

To all those who have music on your site....How do you add. I have gone to the link and tried to add a music link but there isn't one.

CHECK OUT THE NEW PICTURES

Well, I was able to recover some of the pictures.......I had saved some pictures on my myspace website, so I went and saved them to my hard drive on my laptap and walla!!!! These aren't all of them, but that is okay. At least I have the majority of them....I did buy a "flash drive", so I will be backing up quite frequently. At any rate, check out the new pictures I have put up. I think my favorite one is the one of the newlyweds smelling the flowers. They are such a fun couple. They love life and love God. Isn't that the way it should be? Enjoy!

Blogger page

Thanks for all the tips on how to get my page back. I have tried them all and nothing worked, so for now I will go with what I have.......I was able to recover some pictures as John had backed up our hard drive and I found almost all of the pictures, but none of the wedding. I will be loading some different ones on the right side of the page. Maybe I can work on it and make a little different. Last I heard from Casey he was going to try one more thing, but everything he tried so far wasn't working.....Hopefully Sam and Bri will hurry and register on the web site so I can see the pics and order some. That stinks, because I'll have to pay for them, but that is the way the "cookie crumbles"......Will post more later

FRUSTRATED AND UPSET

HELP MARME AND BACAMAMA. Calling ALL treasured fellow bloggers.....If you haven't noticed, I have lost, yes lost all of my pics on the right side of my page. I also lost all of my links.......I refuse, I repeat refuse to venture and try to change my page ever again....:0( I want to cry as I cannot recapture those pictures thanks to my other computer not working. Still don't know if I can recover them.....I don't know what happen. I saved the template before I started this and when I went to restore wala, no pictures.......No links, no ANYTHNG....I still have all of the sayings, but no pictures. Oh and the scripture is gone to. That I can restore. I'll have to think of another saying as i can't remember what it was, something about treasures and moments I'm sure......Okay I think I have vented long enough.......No more changing blog pages.....I will stick to the one I have and try to make IT look better than it does right now!!!!!

HIS FIRST BABY FISH

Have you ever seen a child so in awe!!!! Daddy tried to get him to touch it, but OCD kicked in and he probably thought "you want me to do what"? Actually he probably just said a sharp NO and shook his head.......

APPLES OR PUMPKINS ANYONE?

HELPPPPP

Okay, fellow bloggers and computer experts. I found a new page I really really want and can't get it to load.......can someone help me!!!!! I promise to bake you chocolate chip cookies, or if you are watching what you eat maybe a fruit plate???? I have been trying to do this for the past hour and it ain't working :0( Any suggestions!!!!!

BIG FISH

Ethen caught this Bass all by himself. No help from Daddy. He caught a lot of fish that day, daddy caught nothing. This was the biggest! He said he caught this with a little tiny worm. His expression says "I can't believe I caught this big fish all by myself"!

OH THE BEAUTY!!!!

Maine in the fall. My favorite time of the year. Below are my two favorite boys in the universe.
Yes, those are sweatshirts they have on. It is only September. This weekend they are going to the apple orchard to pick fresh apples.......what fun.....Oh the memories of when I lived back East, East coast that is.......:0) (lol) I told Angela to take lots of pics.....

My hands are cold nanna!

Proximity Creates Intimacy

While I type this I am listening to Sam preach. I am so excited because I don't get to hear him as often as I would like. He is preaching at the church he is associate pastor in. He is preaching on "Intimacy with God" You can go to http://www.baysidelifechurch.com/ and hear what the Holy Spirit is saying through him. I am amazed at how God is still talking to us about intimacy with Him since the retreat. Could it be it is the heart cry of His heart? It is so awsome, because he is reinforcing everything that was said on the retreat. I encourage you to check it out. When you go to the web site click on the listen button and then scroll down until you find his name.
