Awesome Birthday
We celebrated my 33rd Birthday early last night( Steve works on my actual birthday on Thursday)
I was down right spoiled all day, from an afternoon nap, to waking up to streamers EVERYWHERE!!!
On the door handle to the bathroom, across our bedroom door ( I had to walk through it to get out) and that started the party!!
Steve grilled out my favorite burger recipe, and girls got all the fixins to go with that, including making french fries!!
Shania baked me a cake, and I thought the fire marshal was going to have to be called..lol.. JUST KIDDING!!!
I was able to sit and relax and work on more Christmas decorations
( something I LOVE to do) was given AWESOME cards from the girls,
and a VERY special card from the love of my life ( he also surprised me and added a lil bit of something special)
After all that, we started to decorate the Christmas tree and we stayed up late until the very last ornament was placed, turned out all the lights, and just sat watching the lights, listening to Christmas music, and thanking GOD for another year to celebrate HIS birth.
If it wasn't for HIS birth, we would be lost with no hope!!!
I am so blessed, so thankful, so content, to be serving Jesus, to have the family I do, and friends. I could not ask for more!!!
My only desire is to serve Jesus with all I have, and keep my life yielded for HIS purpose and HIS glory!!
To know HIM more, to love HIM more, to be completely sold out to HIS will!!!
So excited to be celebrating MY KING JESUS' Birth!!!
I trust all of you are well and are filled with the Spirit of Jesus Christ our Savior and Redeemer!!!
Will be posting pictures, maybe later today ( it is almost 4am and I am yet in bed)
Thank you Jesus for giving me the gift of another day, week, month, and year to serve you. Please keep the desire in my soul on fire for you, keep me near the cross, so I might tell others of your great and mighty wondrous love and gift you came to the whole world to set us free to live for you!!!

Thankful
We have been slowly getting our Christmas decorations out and starting to put it all together..
I decided since I made Fall lamp shades, I wanted to do the same for Christmas. I started in and it didn't seem to be what I had "pictured" but was already into it and to late to change it.. SO, went forward and it is cute, festive, and Steve and the girls like them.. that is what matters :)
Steve and Shania did a lil decorating out front, we are keeping it simple, but we like it and think it is cute!
Tree is up, and will decorate it tomorrow, as tonight we got side tracked with other "projects" and I need to clean up the glitter galore from all things crafts :)
My Mother and Grandmother came over today after their DR appointments and celebrated my birthday with me ( early) The greatest gift I could of ever wished for from each of them was given. 1) their time, and 2) A gift from their hearts in words and things I LOVE! ( will post pictures soon)
I feel so BLESSED, and overwhelmed at the goodness of God!!
He is so good to me, and shows me in so many ways. Family and Friends are SO SO SO very important to me, and I love to have them around!!
We( the girls and I) are planning to have a sleep over at their house soon to do some Christmas baking together, and play games, and make memories!!!
SOOOO Looking forward to that!!
Today also marked a BIG event in the life of our baby girl, so needless to say, today has been a wonderful day with lots of emotions.
We had a WONDERFUL day in the Lords house yesterday ( Sunday)
Very convicting messages on a call to TRUE and PURE Holiness of heart and living. Much soul searching to be done, Lord I need revival in my heart!!
Enjoyed fellowship at a friends home with her and her family, and were blessed with wonderful gifts from different countries they have been!!
GOD IS SO GOOD!!!
Jesus means more and more to me with each passing day. I am desperate for more of HIM.
Praying you all are having a wonderful week and are feeling the Joy of the reason we have this season!!
Until next time!!!!
