Wait and See..


Milking Miss Moo Cow

Sisters =)

My favorite girls! Ginger & Giuliana


I was born in Tennessee
Late July humidity
Doctor said I was lucky to be alive

I’ve been trouble since the day that I got here
Trouble till the day that I disappear
That’ll be the day that I finally get it right

There is hope for me yet
Because God won’t forget
All the plans he’s made for me
I have to wait and see
He’s not finished with me yet

I never really was that good in school
I talked too much, broke the rules
Teacher thought I was hopeless fool alright

I don’t know how but I made it through
It’s one of those things that you’ve gotta do
But I always had a knack for telling the truth

Still wondering why I’m here Still wrestling with my fear But oh, He’s up to something And the farther on I go I’ve seen enough to know That I’m, not here for nothing He’s up to something
So now’s my time to be a man Follow my heart as far as I can No telling where I’m ending up tonight I never slow down or so it seems But singing my heart it’s one of my dreams All I gotta do is hold on tight

Had an AMAZING time in Nashville with my sister, brother in law, and all 5 kids...
There's something about that place that gives peace to my soul.
I know God is everywhere, but I FEEL Him everywhere in good ol' Van Leer, Ten. The green trees, beautiful fields, blue skies with wonderful cloud. I love the beauty of God's creation.

What an amazing God we have.

August already???


Wow! Time sure did fly by... I'm leaving in a few hours for a weekend trip to Nashville, Tenn. Looking forward to no cell phone, books, reading, spending time with my sister, milking a cow and reveling in the beauty of my Creator.

Tuesday will find me, along with my parents and Brock's parents, flying to St. Louis and then driving to Ft. Leonard Wood, MO.
Wednesday we get to visit the base and see Brock for family and friends day.

Thursday is his graduation in the morning. We are then staying in St. Louis for a couple days and heading back to Orange County, CA on Saturday!
Thank you JESUS for getting both of us through these past 5 months of separation.
See you when i get back OC, CA!

Obama

If Obama is so intent on stepping outside his Presidential jurisdiction, here is something he could work on:

thanks Cory


But I guess this is what Obama wants to turn our country into...Obama joker
