I only had a week between JD going back to school and my starting school again. I had a list of things a mile long to accomplish. While I didn’t get everything done, here is what we did finish.
Humility is not something that is easy to learn for me sometimes. After a day like this one Let’s be honest the entire month of December for us, I find myself hitting my knees and thanking the Lord for our blessings. Today when we took Jeremy’s car into the shop I laughed, I’d finally hit my cracking point. Finding out that the work needed on Jeremy’s car is about 3 times what we wanted to spend was a hard pill for us… but I’m thankful that we have the car in the first place and need to be more grateful for our blessings.
Has it been a hard month for us? Yes. Have we seen some amazing blessings through the trials? Absolutely.
This holiday season we are truly feeling the spirit of the season and the love of the Lord in our home. I believe sometimes the Lord does give us more than we think we can handle, so that we will turn to him to help us. We are blessed, and through it all we can’t forget that.
Merry Christmas
We interrupt “getting to know you” to bring you this movie review:
Yesterday I spent all day at the university library doing homework. I was able to get a lot done but I could tell around 9pm my brain was slowing down. My sister (being the superstar she is) decided it was time for a break and took me to the movies. We decided to watch the new Muppet Movie and laughed so hard. I even cried a little.
I’ve always loved the Muppets and it was awesome to see them back and spectacular. There were times that we felt like the only ones in the theater laughing but maybe it is because we were laughing so hard it drowned everyone else out? It was such a great movie, I would actually go see it again and I can’t remember the last time I went to a movie and loved it so much. We were laughing all the way home about all the muppetisims and one liners in the show. I’m sure when we watch it again we’ll see even more we missed. I suggest it to anyone. Such a hoot. Thanks sister!
LIKE
I was going to put an onion as the food I do not like but that’s not fair. I like the flavor of onions I just can’t stand the texture. SERIOUSLY can’t handle the texture of an onion. So I chose this instead:
DO NOT LIKE
Doesn’t matter the brand or even miracle whip, can not handle mayo in any way. I like my sandwiches dry.
Gravy. This is always one of my least favorite questions.
I have a great imagination. I didn’t ever think of it as a talent but since we have to pretty much “teach” Deeds to develop and use his imagination I guess that’s a good one. I love being able to read a book and imagine the world the author creates with their words and just lose myself in it.
I am also very forgiving. I get it from my dad, thanks daddy.
What are some of your talents?
Why do I love this painting? Because if you look at it upside down there is a hidden Mickey Mouse head in the sky.
I will cry depending on my mood to lots of songs. This is the first one that came to mind tonight. Reminds me of Jeremy and the kids.
Uh, Funny fears. I don’t really think my fears are funny but maybe they will be to you?
Ok one of those fears is not true, I’ll let you guess which one.
This one is easy… Disney World with my kids and Jeremy. I can’t wait to see it through their eyes.
