My Little Football Player

The kids and I went to Sioux City with Curt these last couple of days. He has a store out there that is doing a remodel and needed our ladder. Well, it won't fit in Curt's car, so I was like, hey, we'll bring it out in the van, just take 2 of the kids in your car and I'll take the other one. ;o) So we left Monday, Skylar and I in the van with the ladder and Curt and the other 2 in his car. ;o)
Tuesday nite before supper, I took the kids over to the mall and we walked through Scheels. I saw these cute little football helmets and was like, hey try this on! So I got the smallest one and it wouldn't even fit on Skylar's head! SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!! I tried pounding it down, NOPE!!! So after trying a couple different sizes, I went to the biggest one and put it on Gavin, it FIT!!! It was HARD to get off though too! But anyways... I got my camera out of my purse, took his pic, put the camera back in my purse, closed it up and got the helmet off Gavin's big head. I noticed this employee was following me. I kept stopping to look at stuff before heading to the door to see if he really was. Sure enough, he would stop DEAD and "pretend" to do something to different racks. Ok, I've worked retail, I know how to straighten racks and I know when someone if being followed. I must say, this guy did a VERY poor job of following me, unless he wanted me to know he was! :O) So I got to the door, walked out and he FOLLOWED me out the door and part way to my car before turning around to go back in! I am like what? Is it a crime to try on a football helmet and take a pic? I almost said something to him, but I was a good girl and didn't say anything. It was a decent mall, all except for the employee that followed me out of the Scheels store...
Here's Gavin... Isn't he cute???? ;o)

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Judah's Wife Book Review

I received this book from Bethany House for free if I agreed to read and then blog about it. Judah's Wife is by Angela Hunt. I've read a few of her books and absolutely enjoyed and loved them!  I was very excited to be picked to read this book! I've honestly not read anything from the books of Maccabees.  This story is the "silent years' between Malachi and Matthew. I really would like find Maccabees now to read it since I've read this book. This book was amazing! Love being able to read stories that really capture what it was like.  Angela Hunt has done this in this book. I really enjoyed how she told it from Judah's side and Leahs side.  It would go back and forth, but it wasn't confusing at all. Talks about Leahs up-bringing and how she struggled. Her father wasn't a real father figure and in time she realizes how much her mother protected her from her father and his blows. She struggles to truly love Judah at first who was somewhat fo...

Whew...

written 4-7-18 Wow! It's been a while since I"ve blogged...  Crazy fun times around here!  :) We had a BIG EVENT for our church Friday night.  It was awesome!!!  All about where we are and what we need to finance our new church building we are building!  We were to take a card and pray about a number and donate for the building fund.  It was a FANTASTIC awesome night to say the least!!! Curt and I have been praying about a number that God wants us to give.  We both feel a number, we can't afford.  haha...  We really can't afford anything because we still have 2 adoption credit card bills we are paying off.  God has blessed us and given us what we need each month.  But we want to give, and adding it up and looking at our budget and writing it all out, it's not there.  Nothing is there!  But that's the way it was with adoption!  We took that step of faith! So that was Friday...  Saturday morning went to ke...
