Okay people...

I cannot believe that I have not blogged in two months! It is NOT because there has been nothing to blog about! I have been so busy finishing up my school work, working on my job school, taking care of my little sweet things {yes that includes Justin}, preparing for Christmas, and working on the sin nature that remains in me despite the fact that I serve a Risen Savior! 

Whew~ and I did not even mention the EXTRA stress that came with rooting on MY team this year! More on that in a minute...

I have been praying lately over having joy in all of life's circumstances. It is so easy in this stressful journey I call my life to slip into a pattern of being overwhelmed at all of the tasks that I face each day. Instead, I am choosing to be overjoyed with the seemingly mundane things in life. It is such as blessing to have two healthy kids to clean up after and a pure joy to have a caring husband to attend to. 

Please pray for me though. This journey of finding true joy (not the kind you fake) in life requires me to listen carefully to the Holy Spirit. I feel changes in life coming. God is speaking this to me through scripure and truths that are playing out in my life. I am not even sure what this changes will be or what they will mean for my family. But I do know that HE is in control and I CAN (and will) trust Him to lead and take care of all the details. Bust even as I write this...satan whispers in my hear how, why, when...so pray that I can push fear and doubt out of my life.

Have you heard of this guy???

If not, this is Cameron Newton. This picture was taken after the Auburn win at the SEC Championship game. I was there! FRONT ROW and after the game I was able to TOUCH Cam :) No matter how you feel about Auburn or Cam I think it is awesome that I TOUCHED the 2010 Heisman Trophy winner! This game was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I love Auburn football and I love spending time with my family. This was our 16th year to Atlanta and the SEC game. My Grandfather made this possible and 'Thank You' seems very inadequate. I also have to thank my 3 uncles for taking a girl along to the game!

 I only took 300 pictures at the game...

Also...

  Preparing for Christmas has been so fun this year. The kids are so into buying presents for others, decorating, wrapping, and baking cookies (which they want to do EVERY night:) But it still touches my heart when my 4-year-old tells me that it does not matter what he gets because, "Christmas is not about getting presents as stuff it is about Jesus' birthday." Just melts my heart! We are so blessed...there are no words...try Psalms 126:3 to sum up my feelings about life!

God Bless!
