Thankful Thursday

Today Lynn at Spiritually Unequal Marriage has chosen simple things for the theme today.

Sometimes it is just the simple things that make a difference. I walk out my door and see the beautiful flowers. They are simple, yet complex. Just looking at them brings a sense of joy.

My daughter was here about a week ago and she commented that " it's so green here"!
Sometimes we need to just stop and think of the simple things in life.

Today I am thankful for:
*simple things in life, a beautiful day, the sun shining, the green in the yard
*when my husband grills dinner outside
*an impromtu hug from the little guy

Proverbs 2:6
For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.

Budget movies....

Our theater has budget movies all summer for the kids. It costs 3 dollars per ticket and you get free popcorn!! It's quite a bit of popcorn too.

It's on Wednesdays and Thursdays all summer.

Today we saw Monsters vs Aliens. Cute movie.

The theater runs two screens and it's at 10:00 am--a perfect time.

The theater was FULL with little kids and surprisingly it was pretty quiet too.

There is a city nearby that shows FREE movies but I would use the gas to get there for the free movie so I am happy to pay the three dollars to see the movie in my own town.

Little guy enjoyed it too. It was nice for him because he could talk and not get shhhsss'd throughout the whole movie because there were other kids talking too.

We will definitely be going again!

Memory Verse Week 27

Proverbs 14:29 (New King James Version)

29 He who is slow to wrath has great understanding,
But he who is impulsive exalts folly.


This is a great verse!

Happy fourth of July!!

Happy fourth of July.

I hope everyone had a wonderful day!

We went to a Baseball game and had fun!!

I am thankful for this day and that I live here.

God Bless America~!!

Thankful Thursday

Today, Lynn is our host and her topic is Freedom.


I am thankful for the freedoms I enjoy today. I am free to make choices, and mistakes. I am free to have Jesus in my life and to not be afraid of telling people that openly. I am thankful I am free to pray for other, and that I can pray openly if I want. I am thankful for the freedom I have in Christ.

1 Thessalonians 5:14, King James Version
Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.

John 17:1
These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee...

The Garden

Here is the Garden today. The left back is all the tomatoes, and the right back.

The front left are mostly all the peppers.

The front right are herbs, and cukes and lettuce. The lettuce is good!!

July 1

Today is my Mom's 81st birthday. She is in good health. I am thankful for that. She is hard to buy for, I mean, what do you buy for an 81 yr old? we generally give her a gift card to a restaurant, since she goes out to eat often. I can't buy clothes for her either, I have never been able to do that. So it's gift cards, and we usually take her out to eat!

July is a busy birthday month for me. It is also my brothers birthday, a nephew, a brother in law, a cousin and my daughter and I share a birthday!

The little guy is doing well this summer. He loves swimming and he also loves playing t ball. I think next year he can play baseball! And he will also have more swim lessons next year as well. He is also excited to start kindergarten and is reading!!! He can also do some addition and subtraction in math.

The husband is working a lot.

I am not doing much. Needlepointing mostly and some small crochet projects.

The garden is doing very well! I'll get a picture up soon. Lots of tomatoes, a variety of peppers, cukes, herbs and carrots. Oh and lettuce too, that we have eaten.

It's been a somewhat cool June and beginning of July. Cloudy and cool.

Started a savings account at the bank for the little guy--he is excited about that too.

I have a high school reunion in July. Last one I went to my little guy was just 6 months old and daddy stayed home with him while I went to the reunion. This time my husband is coming with. It should be fun.

Still liking the Star Wars thing. What can I say?? LOL
