Crazy Faith

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." ~Hebrews 11:1 Hey Guys! Welcome to the blog! This blog is to describe our journey on our crazy leap of faith! Get ready to join the rollercoaster ride, and see how God can take two very ordinary people and completely reshape them and mold them to completely trust in Him in ALL things!

Name:
Location: Pineville, KY

I'm originally from CA, consider my hometown to be Shelbyville, KY but am currently residing in Pineville, KY. I love hanging out with my kiddos and Dan, the city, the ocean, taking hiking trips in the mountains, being around my closest friends, and watching a good chick flick! More than anything though, I love praising and worshiping our Savior Jesus Christ. It is a mystery to me, why He chooses and wants to use me?!?! He is so amazing!

Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving on campus this year. We had family and friends over and I had the privilege of hosting another Thanksgiving in our home! I absolutely loved it!


Grandma (my mom) resting with Nicholas


Check out these place mats that I made for the Thanksgiving table!! I got the idea from Hobby Lobby's inspirational page! Thank you Hobby Lobby! All it took to make them was felt, hot glue, stickers, ribbon and artificial leaves. The pocket you see to the right is for your silverware. I had so much fun making these! I made them one night while Dan was out of town preaching. I made several different color arrangements for the place mats, but I won't post all of them!







Bryson and Landon.


Landon's mom, Tiffany, and I were 2 out of the 3 women that were pregnant together during the summer. The three of us were all due within a week or so together. Landon was born 3 days after Bryson!


We had to borrow Landon's bib for a picture of Bryson's 1st Thanksgiving! Thanks Landon for sharing!



Tiffany, Kyle and Landon. It was an honor being able to open our home up to them when they were unable to go home to FL for Thanksgiving. They were such a joy to have around! Love them dearly! I really enjoyed Tiffany and I picking each other's brains about Babywise.



After eating, Dan and I thought we may brave the Middlesboro Wal-Mart for the Pre-Black Friday sales on Thursday night. To really appreciate this, first understand that this is the only Wal-Mart within a 30 - 45 minute radius. The Middlesboro Wal-Mart gets hit with KY shoppers, TN shoppers and Virginia shoppers! Dan and I entered Wal-Mart at around 9:30pm and it is packed. Imagine taking half of Mall St Matthews' crowd and jamming them all in a small, narrow-aisled Wal-Mart. We debated for about 15 minutes whether we should stay and fight the crowds or to leave. We left. Went home and went to bed! Later I heard that the average time waiting in line that night was about 2 1/2 hours! Just in line! Craziness. Glad we left!


Friday we decorated for Christmas!



It was another great Thanksgiving. I am so thankful for so much. For family and friends. For a healthy family. For church family and campus family. Ones that we hold so near and dear to our hearts.


Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting. ~Psalm 118:1


You are my God, and I give thanks to You; You are my God, I extol You. ~Psalm 118:28
