We are going to have so much fun! So, I will be away this weekend but, next weekend we are having another Blog Hop and I hope to see all of you stop by..
Have a blessed weekend!

Hi Friends

Hello Friends,
I hope this post finds all my readers, friends & family well, I have been very busy lately and just got behind with my blogging. A few new things I have been doing lately I started a Weight Loss Challenge at a Local Gym and although I really am not entered in the Challenge ~I go three times a week to exercise and trying to get a start on getting in shape, I have a long ways to go but, I know that with the Lord giving me strength and having him by my side, I will do this! I didn't want to join the challenge because I am not putting a bikini on and taking pictures of myself for others to see Lol...Another project I have been working on is making cards to sell to raise funds to give to my church for their 25th Anniversary Celebration. I had listed quite a few on etsy and since they were not selling I wanted to donate and give to this Celebration. It's been a busy year teaching school but, the kids have done great so far. I have also been working on baby blankets to sell on Etsy.

Busy Life

Wow its been busy around here~lots happening with taking my daughter Courtney to work, and seems like I have just been on the go so much..Yesterday we celebrated Courtney's 17th birthday...where has the time gone, our children grow so fast, savor every moment of your children's lives because before you know it they are grown..Today her Dad and I are taking her to lunch...her favorite, Olive Garden...This weekend we probably will lay low and not do alot for the 4th...I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend, and pray God's protection over each and everyone of you..
Blessings

Being a Divine Diva

Wow this week was a busy one, Each day I seemed to be running 2 or 3 times to go do something..by the end of the week I needed to be refreshed in the Lord, This was the weekend for the "I love being a Woman" Conference, it was awesome, last night it started with Prophet-is Diane Palmer~what an awesome and unique gift she has..Then today we met at the Church at 8:30 for breakfast and then we started with 3 workshops, Health & Fitness, The Cost of being a Diva and then Women in the Work Force..All 3 were really good-I have to tell you though that I truly enjoyed the 2nd one, The Cost of being a Diva, it wasn't at all what you would expect it to be~she talked about being a Divine Diva~A Divine Diva is one whose heart is after the Lord and allowing God to be in that Secret part of our hearts-and also that its okay to be beautiful ~God wants us to be who He created us to be and what makes us beautiful is our relationship with the Lord.
Of Course she shared on a lot more but this is a little bit of what was shared.
Then she sang this song..
Lord you are more precious than silver,
Lord you are more costly than gold,
Lord you are more beautiful than diamonds
and nothing I desire compares with you.



It was a very refreshing time and gave me a lot to ponder on this week.
I pray that all of my friends here have a blessed Mothers Day.

Good Morning
