Facials and Fun

Wow, what a busy weekend. Family in town, so we were back to 4 dogs at the house. Jerami and Jason spent most of the weekend hunting. Jerami was successful and got a really nice sized deer. Jason and Haley, from what I understand, had some opportunities, but the timing just wasn't quite right. We've got more time...

Shelby didn't go along to hunt today, and instead spent the day with me. We made bracelets and necklaces before church, attended and ate a really nice dinner at church, and then attended the auction (again, at the church), where we managed to have a great time donating money to help pay for projects at the church.

We had a few grocery items we needed afterwards, so we picked those things up, and then it was time for some Mary Kay makeovers... We had a great time, and loved meeting some new people. There were probably more than 30 people there, and I just love to be a part of things like that, making lots of ladies smile!! I have to get some photos from some of the friends who attended, cause Shelby "messed up her makeup" and wasn't fixed up well enough when we got home to feel like we could take a suitable picture... It was a lot of fun, and a long overdue treat!!

Finally, we made it back home, and got to hear about Jason's day. They did have a good time hunting, and have some nice places lined up to hunt later in the week.

Tomorrow is studying day...

We're praying for all those who are out hunting, as Shelby so bravely mentioned during the prayers at church today. Be safe!

Really not much going on here today. I've been studying like a mad man, it's cold here, kids are busy, same old same old. I did find out yesterday my Aunt Marlene (Mom's sister) has non-Hodgkins lymphoma. She is doing some chemo treatments in the next couple weeks, and we'll see where it goes from there -- please keep her in your prayers. I also need prayers for my friends still struggling financially. Times are tough, and we all have to make sacrifices we typically wouldn't, but hang in there -- it will all be worth it in the end. One resource I can recommend on money expertise is DaveRamsey.com -- he's the guy responsible for the Financial Peace University that Jason and I took a couple of years ago. We wouldn't be where we are today if we hadn't taken advantage of that valuable resource. There is a link on the right side of my blog to his website -- check it out. I'd also be willing to talk to you about his information, too. Let me know! ...

Christmas Lists

I finally took a few moments and got the Christmas lists posted for our family!  I find it hard to believe we are at this point in the year already.  This has been a crazy year, full of roller-coaster emotions, such busy times, a few slow times, losses for some, gains for many, but it has been another year passed nonetheless. This year, we've seen many changes, and with each change, we learn a little bit more about who we are and what we're capable of. I'm going into this holiday season with a warm heart, and I hope you will too.  God has great things in store for all of us, and I can't wait to see each morning what He's prepared for me. Happy Holidays! Side note about the lists -- This is verbatim what the kids had on their lists, and I did not split the list between any of the family, so plan accordingly.  We won't be concerned about duplicates, as we enjoy shopping for ANY reason.  We're grateful for the thought you put into each gift, and are tha...

   This past weekend, we traveled to Deadwood with my “work family”, and had a great time. Some of the guys went golfing up near Sturgis (Boulder Canyon) during the morning, but most of us ladies had spent the morning checking out the sales in the citywide garage sales. We started off the trip by meeting together at the office and “caravan-ing” the ladies to the Prairie Berry Winery. With Jason’s back being injured recently, he wasn’t up for golf, so he decided to be our “DD”…          I had never been to a wine tasting, nor a winery, and never had been to Prairie Berry.  It snowed on us on the way up (see photo at right). What an enjoyable experience it was! We were allowed to try up to five wines, (only a half an ounce each), so I tried a variety, albeit most of them were the sweet wines. I am just not a fan of dry or bitter wines. I ended up purchasing some of their infamous “Red Ass Rhubarb” and some “Calamity Jan...
