{March is well under way}

February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in.   I finally purchased a new monthly focus board.  We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face. I am glad that I saw it but I am good for a while on sad movies, even if they do end good!   My oldest daughter, her husband and their son participated in the Spartan race which is a series of obstacle courses that challenge. They done so well. As you can see from the pictures it gets pretty muddy!  My three daughters participate each year in the Gate River Run. I love it that they do this together. They have so much support & encouragement from all the onlookers. I am just

Wednesday in the Word-Rejoice

What is your New Word for 2014? 
This year as I was praying for my new word for 2014 I could never settle on a word. My friend Darlene Rockefeller made me a sweet wall hanging for Christmas and the word was REJOICE!  
I knew in an instant that was to be my word for 2014. 
My Scripture is "But let all take refuge in You REJOICE; let them sing for joy, and spread Your protection over them, that those that love Your Name may exult in You. For You bless the righteous, O Lord; You cover Him with a favor as with a shield. Psalm 5:11-12


Happy 2014!

Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  2. Great word Cindy. I think my new word for 2014 will be "think". I have made some very hasty decisions in 2013 and did not think about them first. Some of the decisions I made has come back to haunt me. In all honestly Cindy, I truly want to "Think" before making decisions of any kind. Thanks for posting your new word! Connie Royals

  7. Cindy, what a great new word! I truly do rejoice in all of the wonderful blessing the good Lord has given me. To be honest, I have never really picked a new word for the New Year. I just always feel so blessed. May need to think about a specific word.
    hugs,

  10. I love it! Joy must be filling God's heart this year because versions and portions of that word keep popping up among blog friends this year. Several have been lead to the word JOY, but you are the first to be lead to the verb. I'm a verb person so I particularly love it.

    Rejoice in the LORD always. Again, I say Rejoice!

  11. A bit late catching up but so glad to come here and see the word and the verse God gave you for this year. I love it. My word for this year is JOY. My verse is: You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with JOY in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. Psalm 16:11 (NIV)

Hiding the Ugly Hot Water Heater

 I shared that I wanted to hide my ugly hot water heater in my laundry room with you a few weeks ago. It just stuck out like a sore thumb. But after all it is a hot water heater right? So my man took a piece of wood (not real wood) but it worked and built a frame for me. So now to see if it would fit and it did. I painted it white and did not like the texture it had even after two coats of white. (rule of thumb...you get what you pay for and the wood was cheap) But I wasn't going to let it whip me!  Found some contact paper at Walmart in the gray and white. Covered the front with the contact paper and loved the look. The top was covered with a piece of painted wood as well and worked perfect to place this on top... And this.... Added a clothes basket in the corner and here was the top.... Yep, no longer an eye sore to me! Went perfect with my gray walls and gray and white floor. Remember the wood tray I bought at a yard

{Another Fun Filled Weekend}

I hope you all are doing well. I am trying to wind down for the night and thought I would try and get a post out. Girls, by this time I am in my fat clothes and recliner smashing that remote control!   Marty and I kicked off our weekend by having a little fun food as I call it,  "charcuterie" style out by the pond. Of course I always fix more than we need or eat but it sure was good.  Two of our granddaughters had dance recitals over the weekend so we got to watch them perform and oh my! They were just the cutest things ever.  We were blessed to be able to see them perform. Then we celebrated a birthday for this sweet grandgirl! She was excited about being double digits . And besides all the fun from the weekend I was able to see some of my pretties in bloom.  Now to enjoy a cup of coffee.... I hope that you all have a wonderful, blessed week.  Hugs and blessings, Cindy

{Happy 46th Wedding Anniversary To Us}

  Happy October everyone! I wanted to pop in today and share a few pictures. Marty and I celebrated our 46th wedding anniversary on September 23.  Oh it seems so long ago that we said "I Do". We started dating when I was 16. Married at 18 and began a family at 20. Needless to say we have surely grown up together. Praise the Lord that we are growing "Older" together.  We decided since it had been about 8-9 years since we had been to Savannah, Ga. that we would take a weekend there and just enjoy a scenic luncheon cruise.  We enjoyed walking River street and sightseeing, shopping and eating of course! It was a nice get away and perfect for us as we are simply two imperfect people that fit perfectly together.  I did spot Santa while in Savannah though! YES, I love Christmas so I had to stop at several Christmas shops! We've had outings that have kept us quite busy and we have surely been blessed to be able to attend our grands functions and our little outings toget
