War Eagle Anyway

Thanksgiving

Well, we made the trip and got back sunday night... we all were exhausted but had a great time and enjoyed being with family and friends we dont see all that often. On friday me and my mom went shopping (5am) just like old times and I really enjoyed that. Its not often that when I am home that I get to spend any one on one time with mother or daddy... so that was a treat. On Saturday Brannon and I headed to T Town with some friends for the game. and despite the score, we had a really good time... i can only imagine how much fun it would have been if we were winning.

Here are a few pics from the weekend.... i will post more this weekend because our neighborhood is having breakfast with Santa on saturday... anyone want to bet on how that will turn out? will we be brave or scared to death? i guess we will have to wait and see...

hope everyone is having a good week... only 3 more until Christmas.

Happy Thanksgiving and My Pre New Years Resolution

Hope everyone has a great thanksgiving...I know I sure have ALOT to be thankful for. As for my pre new years resolution.... i promise to be a better blogger after we return from AL. I will have pics of the girls from thanksgiving with emma and ella and I will also have pics from the AL/AU Game.... hope that turns out for us....

anyway - hope you all have a great weekend and WAR EAGLE....

No Matter the Outcome

2 verses of comfort.....

Proverbs 21:1 The kings heart is in the hand of the Lord, and like the rivers of water, He turns it wherever He wishes

Jeremiah 29:11 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you, says the LORD, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the LORD, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive.

We need to remember to pray for our leaders, no matter who they are.

regardless who wins, history will be made. Hope everyone voted....

Will post pics tomorrow -

Trying to post pics

I am trying to post pictures from Halloween but its not letting me. I will continue to try if not tonight tomorrow.

Remember to pray tonight and tomorrow for the election.... it isnt over yet.
"I know you are sometimes unsure, but I can to immeasurably more than all you
ask or imagine according to my power that is at work within you. So honor me
in your life and you will make a difference in the church, in the world and for
generations to come." Eph 3:20-21

15 Things I am not afraid to admit...

I saw this on Stephanie's blog a couple of days ago. I thought it was pretty interesting so, I decided to steal it and see what I could come up with.

Here are 15 things I'm not afraid to admit...

15. I'm not a pet person

14. I'm really not an "outdoor" person either... i do not like to smell like "outside" i know someone reading this has to know what I am talking about

13. I loved being pregnant - and i love babies and would have more if Brannon would let me.... :)

11. I love "To Do" list...and if I do something that is not on my "to do" list....I will add it just so I can mark it off.

10. I have a hard time spending money on things for me.... even if I need clothes and stuff - I am NOT normal huh?

11. I really dont care to watch movies at the theatre. I never have really liked going to the movies

10. I have an extremely messy car. and no matter how much i try to keep it clean it just never happens....

09. I do not like help when cleaning the house, I like it done MY WAY in MY ORDER...

08. If I could go back and do the 12th grade and college over, I would. Not to change this exactly, but alot of it was fun and I missed it.

07. I could eat chips and salsa at EVERY MEAL, in fact that is how i rate my favorite Mexican restaurants

06. I keep the alarm on and doors locked even when we are home, Brannon HATES that.

05. I love baseball and football but NOT professional...

04. I have an unhealthy fear of dying and leaving behind family...even though I know heaven will be SO much better....

03. I dont read my bible as much as I should, I am trying to get better with that.

02. I am nervous about the upcoming elections....

01. I miss ALABAMA and all my family and friends there...( and you too Jill in Kansas...and both Lindsays in Florida and Georgia.....)

Now, what about you? What are some things you aren't afraid to admit??
