New Holy Ghost-It

Here are two that I have seen in the last week.

1. We don't change the messege it changes us

2. Nothing is often a good thing to say

For those of you that know me well, you know my mouth sometimes gets me in trouble. My daily prayer is Lord, put one arm around my shoulder and the other across my mouth. So I thought #2 was meant for me personally.

Thank you God for speaking to me through simple church signs.

Wow....I am a proud Momma










See what I mean? The best thing is not only is Elise beautiful on the outside but also on the inside.

Bahama Bound too!





Two weeks from now Elise and I will be leaving to go on a cruise to the Bahamas. My parents are taking us on this trip. We are both looking forward to the trip and making great memories with my parents. Joel will not be coming along with us because of his work and school schedule. We are sad that he will not be coming along.

It is a seven day cruise. On Saturday we leave port from Charleston and are at sea all day on Sunday. On Monday we will arrive at Great Stirrup Cay which is an island owned by Norwegian Cruise line. Tuesday we will be spending the day in Nassau, Wednesday we will docked in Grand Bahama Island, and on Thursday we will be in Port Canaveral,Florida. We will spend another day at sea on Friday and arrive back in Charleston on Saturday. I am not really sure of the adventures we will have. I am really looking forward to just seeing the landscapes,sunsets, and the great creations of our loving Father. Just maybe we will be escorted into ports by a dolphin or two.

I do have a prayer request.... My mom will be have a procedure the Wednesday before we leave. I pray that all will go well and that the tests will show no problems. If there is a problem the cruise will be a no go. :( Only our heavenly Father knows.

Well atleast I know

Two blogs ago I ask if anyone was reading this to leave a comment. Guess what? No one did. So--- I guess no one reads this. I know it is not that exciting. Oh well, It really is just for me.

Friends

I have never really thought of making friends. I like people and like being around people. Friends....I have some that are diehard friends, some that are friends but not the diehard kind. Have you ever thought what your life would be without any of your friends? Some of my friends are like family. No, we don't get together for holidays but we could. They are the friends that I can depend on in every situation. They ones that tell it like it is. And tell me the true. I love those friends. I really don't have many of these kind of friends but I am thankful for each ones.

Then there are friends that are your people. People that you like to be around. A lot of times they think the way I do. They believe the way I do. I can't really say they look like I do. But none the less they are my friends.

Then there are those that I think are my friends but really aren't. I learn from them too. Have you ever wondered why people can't love? Why do we all have to think the same way, believe the same and do the same things in order to be friends. I guess my question is What would Jesus Do? I honestly don't think He would care about our differences. And that is my story.

Ok!Ok! Shame on me!

Jeez, Enough already, Shame on me! Ok so it has been a while looking back at the last date of my last blog. I guess you can say I was shamed into writing this. I have a friend that has a blog that pretty much blessed me out for not writing anymore. (I am not sure if she even was talking to me.) I just haven't felt the need to write. My life well it just keeps on going,nothing really exciting,nothing new, no interesting Holy Ghost Its. Maybe I just am not in the mood.

I am a facebook junkie, and usually keep up with friends on it. Facebook that is an interesting subject. I have caught up with some friends that I was really close to once upon a time and that is fun. I like to see what is going on in their day to day world.

When I first started blogging, I did it as a journal for our mission trip, which we thought was going to be to Haiti, and well God had other plans. I can't say we are doing anything adventurous for the Lord any time soon.

I am planning on taking a cruise with my mom, dad and Elise. Joel has to stay at home and make money so we can spend it while we are cruising away. We will be going on a 7 day trip to the Bahamas. I have never had a vacation like this. And at times it seems so unreal. I guess I will believe it when I walk on to the ship.

My parents have both had health scares in the last month. My dad had to have another stent and my mom was in the hospital over night for chest pain. They found nothing wrong with her heart, but don't really know what caused the pains. So...the cruise may be a no go. I don't want to push the issue if my parents aren't up to it. We do have travel insurance but it is just for health reasons.

Elise has made the Beta Club and is trying to keep her grades up and participate in the school play "Beauty and the Beast", she is a silly girl. Of course I know that and have known it for quite some time. Play practice is killing us. It is 3 nights a week from 6-9. Which you might say well that is not too bad but when we live 45 minutes from school. It makes for late nights.

Just curious, who out there reads this? If you read it let me know. MaryAnn does I know, but I don't think anybody knows too much about this.

So I guess I will do what MaryAnn has ask me to do.... If there is a question you would like me to answer. Sent it to me. I will answer it.

Until next time. I will try to do better. :0

Love ya, See Ya Bye!
