Babies Are Special

How can anyone resist little babies? The other night we were in a restaurant and noticed a young couple with a baby in a carrier. Bill is quite forward when it comes to babies and asked the parents how old the child was. The mother said that the baby girl was only three weeks old. She looked so small and was sleeping as the father held the carrier. You tend to forget how little babies are when you haven't been around one for awhile.

Sunday

I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Bill and I are going to go to church and then head over to a town close by for some shopping and a movie. I picked up a top at Penney's the other day and really like it. I would like to pick up another one in a different color. We're thinking about going to the movie "Drillbit Taylor". It looks like a cute movie. Should be a fun day.

Easter

Through out my life I have known the Lord personally. I am so thankful and feel very blessed for parents that showed and taught me the true way. At Easter time we are reminded of how awesome God’s love is for each one of us. He sent His son Jesus to be the ultimate sacrifice for us all. In the movie "The Passion of the Christ" it is shown what Christ went through for you and me. How much He loves us and gave for us. He has lived, died and risen to set us free from the bondage's of sin and death. All we need to do is accept what He has done and give our lives to Him. I can not imagine life without Him. The peace and comfort He gives. There are no words to describe the magnitude of His love and grace. He is ALWAYS there for me. I never walk alone. No matter where I am, He is also. I came across this video on YouTube that I wanted to share. We should remember His sacrifice, love and grace each and everyday, not just at Easter time. He is the only way to the Father. Let Him be part of your life. It will be a life changing experience and you will spend eternity praising Him. I am so glad that Christ is my Lord and Savior. Thank you Jesus.

Ice Cream

I saw the Schwan's truck in town and decided to splurge a bit by buying some. We haven't had ice cream in the house for a long time. It just sounded good to me. I am not a big ice cream fan normally but I know that Bill is. I am sure he will be surprised when he opens the freezer door. We used to go through a lot of ice cream when the kids were at home.

Grilling

Tonight I got home from work and found that Bill was grilling hamburgers in the driveway. It was pretty warm out today and I think that Bill figured it was a good day to be grilling. The burgers tasted very good. We hadn't grilled since last fall. Maybe the weather will change now for the better. Warm weather is great for grilling, something we do a lot of.

GPS

We bought a small GPS unit for Christmas. So far we are pretty happy with it. It is quite small and easy to use. I know there are some that cost hundreds of dollars more but we didn't need the extra features. I know that we will use it a lot when we go on trips. My phone has a GPS feature but the unit we bought works better. I am glad we got it.

Mid Week

Tomorrow is Friday already. Some people would probably be thinking that they have one long work day left but I try to be positive and think of it as I only have one work day left this week. It makes such a difference on how you look at things. Be positive in all you do.

Small Heater

We use a small electric heater in the addition. We have it running now even though it isn't all that cold. It oscillates and is very quiet. I like it because it doesn't take up much room and it warms the room quickly. I would still like a fireplace in this room but for now we will just use the little heater.

Time Change

I didn't even realize that this coming weekend was the one in which we set our clocks ahead one hour. It seems like we just set them back the other day. We had to go around the house and set all the clocks. We have many clocks to change. I can count twelve of them right off the top of my head and there may be more. Oh well, I guess if I want the correct time showing I need to set my clocks.

Jake called tonight and filled us in on his job. He really likes it and has had the opportunity to do several tasks and gain lots of experience. There has a been a little change in his duties lately but I will let him fill you all in when he has the chance. He has been very blessed in his work. He has been out of college for almost a year already. Jake has always been a very hard worker and it is paying off.

Honesty

I don't know about you but I am already somewhat tired of the political race. I had told someone that the person I want to vote for is one that admits that they aren't necessarily the greatest at all things, that they have some good to say about other candidates and that they will try to do a good job instead of promise things that they take back once in office. There is so much 'mud slinging' and down right mean things said about each other. I am sure that if the right people came forward we would learn more than we want to about each candidate. A friend of mine loaned me a tape of one of these candidates, I won't say which one, and it shocked me how many terrible things they had been involved with. From corruption to violence there were some very jaw dropping bits of information. I for one don't want a person like that running this great country. Let's find someone honest, kind, moral and just to be our next president. If that isn't possible with any of the current candidates maybe we will have to wait four more years and try again.

Skype

Jake recently told us about a website called Skype. It is free to download and you can call others that have the program and also chat online. You can use a little camera and microphone connected to the computer to talk and see others that have Skype. It is fun to use. I am glad Jake told us about it.

Pictures

We enjoy taking pictures and with the new digital cameras it is so easy to take hundreds of photos. Over Christmas we did actually take close to 300 pictures. I like our little digital camera because we take the pictures and later decide if we want to keep them. We can see right away if they are the pictures we want. Bill was recently in New Orleans and our camera was just the right size for him to take. He could just put it in a pocket and use it when he wanted.

Time Flies

We have all heard the phrase that says 'time flies when you are having fun'. That is so true. There are so many fun things to do in life. Not everything can be fun but I think we can make most things more enjoyable by having a good attitude. Before work if we make a plan in our minds that we are going to have a good work day I think that we will succeed in that.

Personal Survey

Weekend

I like the weekends but they go by so quickly. Sometimes the work week goes by fast too but not fast enough at other times. We always have plenty to do around the house but it is so nice to get out on the weekend and do some fun things. We really enjoy going to see our kids. Maybe we could just have weekends all of the time. Doesn't that sound good?

Shampoo


I love being given the opportunity to try out new products. It's nice when I can do that before actually purchasing. There is now a new shampoo line, naked naturals that have natural shampoo and conditioners available. With the Keravis natural protein, this line can help strengthen your hair and make it up to 7% stronger then before. I have struggled for quite sometime with fine thinning hair and when I can find a product like this that can make my hair feel strong and thicker with just an application or two, it is the winning ticket in my eyes. Keravis is a natural plant protein. It works in two ways, through penetrating and moisturizing the hair follicle, in turn strengthening the hair. Your hair can now be protected from the inside out. Not only is it great for my hair, but it is also an all natural safe choice in a shampoo product. Naked Naturals shampoo and conditioners are better because while making your hair healthier it is not using harmful chemicals. The product line does not have Lauryl or Laureth Sulfates, DEA or TEA, Animal By-products, Artificial Colors, Synthetic Fragrances or Harsh Chemicals. I am so glad to have had the chance to try out this great shampoo. I recommend that you give it a try also.

Car Wash

Our car needs washing but it really hasn't been the best of conditions to get it done. Maybe in the next week it will warm up enough that we can run it through the car wash. I would like to get the salt off the car. It has been a few weeks since it has been washed. We thought about it Saturday but it was a bit sloppy outside. Better weather is not far away.
