This weekend's plans!

So at 3pm today my weekend begins, and boy it is going to be busy! After I leave work today I have to head out the Lehigh to check on a sick friend of a friend and take her some food. Then after that it is home to change and get ready for dinner tonight with the hubs! We are going to the cheesecake factory and then a walk on the beach! (weather permitting)

Saturday's plan's are as follows:
at 9:30am we have a house viewing, then two more at 10am, and then one after that at 11am! So super busy morning! Hopefully we will be able to find one that will work with us. Then after that we are going to grab a bite to eat and head home for some more packing and cleaning. Then at 5pm we will be heading to Naples to have dinner with our dear friends Haley & Joe! Were very exciting about this since we hardly ever get the chance to see them! And that will pretty much round out our Saturday!

Sunday morning we will head to church (probably) the early service then do some grocery shopping. (since we are completely out of food) Then home for more packing and cleaning. Oh yes and I can't forget that I will be making meals for the week and baking my yummy cake that I have been so excited about all week! My wish is that by Saturday we will have a house nailed down and know where and when we will be moving. Then that way I can make the calls and turn off our service at our existing place and connect it at our new place. Which brings about a lot of oh no(s) what if there is a deposit (which there is) and how much will this deposit be? I anticipate this move costing alot of money! But I know God will provide and put me at ease with my anxiety!

So there is my weekend plans nothing too exciting!

Answered prayers!

So I have been praying for a very long time for God to help me find more ladies around my age, fellow Christians whom I can fellowship with. Well I joined a bible study on Wednesday nights about a month ago and I have met a lot of wonderful ladies! I am truly blessed to have all of them! There is one girl from my small group who is around the same age as me. She is a little older then me but not too much. Anyways last week during our bible study we were talking about what our jobs will be in Heaven and I said God could make me the cake decorator! And the lady from my small group said that would be so much fun I have been wanting to learn! I was like really? I found some classes at Jo Ann if you want I could send you the information about them and she said that would be great and asked me if it was the Jo Ann in Naples and I said well no it is the one by my house, But if you would like to take the class together I can drive down to Naples and take it with you, I'm flexible. Anyways my point of this story is that we decided to teach ourselves and we are going to start doing that together! I am so excited one for the new friendship and two to learn how to decorate cakes all fancy like! he he! God is working in my life so very much and is giving me blessing for being faithful!
I feel so very Blessed!

On another great note Austin (our six year old son) has become more curious about God! This is so very exciting for my husband and I! We have prayed about this day for quite sometime! He told us the other night after watching Veggie Tales, that God tells us that we need to love the bullies. We need to pray for them and love them just like we pray for our families and love them. I just love how much he has progressed over the years!

It has been a very fulfilling and exciting experience watching Austin grow into a wonderful boy. He isn't a baby anymore. But just like we taught him to walk and just like we taught him to talk we will continue to teach him to pursue God and a personal relationship with him! There is something so peaceful and fulfilling about watching your child grow in their relationship with God!

Also on another note our friends Mike and Sarah whom had their little baby boy were able to take him home yesterday! Thanks to everyone for the prayers for little Mikey! He is doing great! We can't wait to meet him! I wonder if I should buy a light saber for his room, hmmmm. His room decor is star wars. Or maybe I could make some star wars curtains for Sarah? Hmmm, the possibilities are endless!

Prayer for friends and babies

This weekend has been one of a lot of emotions! Sad, angry, happy, pain. Well the list goes on.

Our heart and prayers go out to a couple who has been through a very traumatic weekend. I will not explain too much in depth as it isn't my place to broadcast these peoples personal lives, all I will ask is for prayer for our friends for hardships in their lives!

Another couple that we are friends with experienced the birth of their son this weekend! Very Joyful! But then their son had to go to NICU which was really scary for them and we all went into deep prayer! Now it looks like their baby and them might be going home today! Praise Jesus!

My friend Haley called me earlier this morning and asked me to pray for our mutual friend who was previously stated and her husband. Also her friends Matt and Jen. Please go over to her blog to read more about this situation. http://joeandhaleyshumway.blogspot.com/

I know that God has a divine plan for everything, but it is so very hard to grasp that sometimes. I know that everything will work out just like he has it planned to and that we all face these hardships in our lives for a reason! I always try to remember these words when I feel like I just can't take anymore or that it is too hard. God does not put more on us then we care bear!
