The OpryMills Mall...

...yep, we shop at this mall occasionally. What a flood! Imagine what the World Wide flood was like!!!
God is powerful, and in control.

Blessings,

" The Waters Saw You, God...

The waters saw you; they trembled. Even the depths shook. The clouds poured down water, the storm clouds thundered;
Your arrows flashed back and forth. The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; lightning lit up the world...

your path went through great waters, but your footprints where unseen.

You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron..."
~ Psalm 77:16-20

These pictures hardly show the extent of the damage in Jackson and Nashville.

I'm sure most of you have heard about the flooding in Tennessee. I live very close to a lot of the area that was hit the hardest. I have family members who live in these areas also. Please keep the victims of this flood in your prayers, as well as the ones who lost loved ones in the tornadoes that hit here in west Tennessee.

Blessings,

I'm Back!

Here are my excuses for not posting anything for 2 weeks:

#1- For the past 4 days, our Internet was down.
#2- It's been snowing, and snowing, and who wants to sit in front of a computer when you can be out enjoying the cold, wet, cold, white, cold snow.:) (Yep, I'm cold.)
#3- I haven't had anything to really write about except the unusual snow we've been having. My Daddy said that he doesn't remember a snow like this one since he was little! I've never seen more than three inches of snow in my life, and here I am, outside standing in about 6 inches! (For those of you who live up north, and have experience with a LOT of snow, this is BIG news here in the south.:)

Anyway, I'll post some 'snowy' pictures when I can get Momma's camera and upload them. Yeah, I didn't take any of the 4 snow men we built in Grandpa and Grandma's backyard, or the wild snow ball fights that broke out amongst us kids, and even the adults. Or, better yet, Grace and I wiping out in the sled that was being pulled behind the 4 wheeler! (Peaked your interest yet?)

On a different note, my little sister, Ava, is turning BIG #3 this Thursday!
It's SO hard to believe it's been three whole years since we first saw her!
I'll put up a B-day post for her on Thursday.

So, we've pretty much been stuck in the house for 4 days. We couldn't even go to church on Sunday because the roads where so icy and slick. So we had church at home!
We read about Paul's conversion, and had prayer, then we sang,
"When da roll a call a londer" (that's how Ava says, "When the Roll is Called up Yonder.")

Well, I guess that's all for now!

I leave now to do laundry...

More Snow...

Yep. It's still snowing. It's been snowing for three days! We usually have one good snow that falls over-night, then it goes away the next day. This time, it's just been keeping a steady sprinkle for three days. It hasn't built up a whole lot though. Right now, it's about 1/3 of an inch in certain places:) Even though it's pretty, and pleasant to watch, I long for the warm, sunny, green, sweet-smelling days of spring to arrive. But, I will try and post a video of the snow falling, here later. (My camera batteries died:))

I've recently got finished reading a great book by Emma Leslie called, Glaucia the Greek Slave. It's set in the time of Nero, when Christians where being persecuted in great numbers and in horrific ways. This girl, and her brother, Laon, are separated when they are sold, and they both, under different circumstances, become Christians.
It would be a great read-aloud book for younger siblings, or, it's a great book for teenagers too.

Blessings,

Happy New Year...

just a little late.:)

We're having a good dusting of snow here now. This will be about all we get:)
I can't wait until spring! It has to be my favorite season, besided summer.

Here's a video that I can't wait to see!



Jasmine, at http://www.joyfullyathome.blogspot.com has a REALLY good review on it. Please, read it if you can. She's also having a give away that you may like to enter!

Snow...

One of my followers asked for some pictures of snow,



This is all we got. We barely get one good snow(3-4 inches), in a year. Oh well:)
