Change of plans...

My plans were to do a post about our trip. We are off and running (well driving) in the morning, but I changed my mind. I have been copying CD’s to cassettes this week to play in our car on the trip. I ran across one that I had not listened to in a long time. It was on the CD titled “The Very Best of Boltz”. There was a song included on there called “The Hammer”. What a powerful song, which Boltz did not do many songs that were not powerful. But I felt like I needed to share it with you. You may have heard it before, I did, but this time I really listened to the words. I found a video on youtube.com. Please turn up your speakers and listen to it below. Hopefully it will work.

Jesus did so much for us and we take so much for granted! Have you ever really thought about what it would of been like to have been there. Watching Jesus die for our sins...

Just Had To Share...

Here is a few more pictures I took today. There is a Xeriscape Garden in Springfield that is beautiful. I love stopping now and then to see what is in bloom. I was thrilled to catch the butterfly.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Just Having Fun...

Life has been crazy lately… I think it is for everyone. Time is flying by. It is hard to believe it is August already, the year half gone. Just a little over 4 months until Christmas. Wow… Christmas already. I have always heard time flies when you are having fun. Actually, I think it flies, as we get older. I was talking to my cousin the other night, and I casually mentioned you know we are the ages that those old people were when we were teens and we would laugh at them. That is a scary thought. But as I told her getting old is better than the alternative.

Life is good and I thank God everyday for what He has done in my life and how He has truly blessed me and brought me to where I am today. He blessed me with a wonderful family and my wonderful husband. Stan loves spoiling me, and that was something I was not used too. We are leaving in a week for a three-week trip out west, and at the end of the three weeks will end up in Arkansas visiting my kids.

I have been playing with my new camera trying to get used to it and all the settings. Talk about fun. Here are a few I have taken over the last couple of days. The hummers were on our back patio and the flowers were at the city park in Willard. Hope you enjoy.
