We just got back from Great Wolf Lodge!! We had a really fun time. It was a nice break from our house, school, and just life!

I don't know if I have ever shared this on my blog but...  we don't have T.V.! So... when we went to the lodge, there was T.V. in our room. Once or twice we would turn it on. BUT when we did, it was just hypnotizing. Taking away our T.V. is one of the best things that we have done! And it just goes to show, for the short amount of time that we were on vacation, we couldn't pull our selves away from the T.V. (us kids anyways). I think a good thing to do is to remove the temptation, before you fall in. Even if you say,  "Oh I can just stay away." It is better to remove the "thing" or the "person" before things get our of hand.

(my mom would of called that a mini lesson)

Okay, I am so excited (and nervous) to say that the drama production that I am in is in exactly ONE WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!

I am as prepared as a person can be, but a person, without God is nothing.

Our goal is to worship God with the gifts he has given us, whether we mess up, or do it perfectly.

Keep me in your prayers!

This is the theme for the play: "So if the son sets you free, you will be free indeed." John 8:36

The title is: Happily Forever After 2 La' Mirror.

I am Rosy!

(thanks for listening to all my chatter about this!)
(hopefully I will have some pictures to post after the production!)

Hope you like the video and picture of our princess/dancer ;-)

Randomness.... (update)

So very busy lately! By the way, I really wanted to do a post on Easter, but didn't have the time, so here is a couple of words for that:

Happy Easter! He has risen! We spent the day with our family. Praising Jesus, for he HAS risen. We are so very very thankful that he died on the cross for our sins, and rose again! We had a CELEBRATION!

As I said before, we have been very busy. One of the dangers of being busy, is not taking the time to spend time with the Lord. I have been very careful to make sure that I spend time with him! It is the most important thing to do in my day!

The drama production that I am in is almost here! May 1st! So love using my gifts to worship my Jesus! I have ALL (finally!) of my lines memorized. We are making props, putting together costumes, going to extra practices, etc.

Another thing is that sickness is still coming into our family. We say NO in the name of Jesus to all of this sickness.

Trying to get school done too!

I am very happy to say that we have some rooms in our house that our clean! If not all, some. Mom has had us at Spring cleaning! We are busy house hunting (and house praying). Some of you know that we recently moved, and we are in a small rent house. We HAVE started looking for a house to buy, and we would appreciate your prayers for us in that area. There is a verse in Acts that says God has the EXACT places where we should live. God knows the EXACT house address of our house to be.

Caleb continues to love his food. He is cutting teeth, says "Da Da," gives kisses, and is trying to crawl. He is 6 months already! Think, in another 6 months he will a one year old (yikes!). He is starting to say "K" for me!!

Ana keeps us entertained. Oh the joys of a two year old (almost three year old)!

I apologize for not posting much! All of you that I know of (comments people!) I am praying for. And I just wanted to say. Why not  comment? Why not be a follower? It blesses me so much to read the comments a few of your leave me, and to see how many people are following my blog! So, I'm just saying, if you do not comment, I would love to read one from you! If you are not a follower, I would love to see you on the follower list. I have a contact page so you can to contact me privately!!

Okay, the weather is so BEAUTIFUL!!!!! It so makes my day to see the sun shining! The weather is perfect, and as you all know, Spring is my favorite season!!

Remember the ramp?... Well, I am praying to see if I get to go this year. They opened their registration for their Summer awakening. If you have never been, you HAVE to go! It is a place where you can feel, literally feel the presence of God. You worship in freedom, hear awesome truth about him. Visit the ramp's website: http://theramp.org/  The ramp is in Hamilton Alabama. I went last Summer! SO AWESOME!!!!!!!

Oh! By the way, my red bird continues to visit me!

So, I will probably be sharing some more updates and more randomness. In the mean time stay tuned!...

I was just wondering...

I was just wondering...

What do you and your family do for Easter?...

How many of you hunt Easter eggs, and how many of you read the story of Jesus resurrection?...

It really doesn't matter what we do, or who we are with...

It just matters that we celebrate, and praise OUR Jesus who died on the cross for our sins, and rose again on the third day!....

So, what are you doing to celebrate?....

I was just wondering...

How do you praise Jesus this Easter?...

I was just wondering...

Is this just something you do every year, OR is it something special you look forward to?...

I was just wondering...

What are YOU, yes YOU, and You, and YOU, and YOU, and YOU, doing THIS Easter?...

A Few Favorite Quotes...

A quote from the movie, Hugo...
I'd imagine the whole world was one big machine. Machines never come with any extra parts, you know. They always come with the exact amount they need. So I figured if the entire world was one big machine... I couldn't be an extra part. I had to be here for some reason.

A quote from Dr. Seuss's, The Lorax...
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.

A quote from Dr. Seuss's, Horton Hears a Who...
A person's a person, no matter how small.

A quote from Mother Teresa...
I alone cannot change the wold, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.

And my VERY FAVORITE Mother Teresa quote...
I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is writing a love story to the world.
"Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God."
Psalm 20:7
