Beautiful Day In Arizona

Thank the Lord that its finally cooling off here in Arizona, its our Monsoon season here and its been raining most nights. Its such a blessing with those pouring rains, I love the smell of rain and how the Lord washes away the heat and gives us cool enjoyable nights. I really do like the weather here in Arizona, yes there are some days that are VERY hot, but if you have air conditioning in you're home and in you're cars, its bearable, but the winters are great, no snow, I wore flip flops all winter long, and if you know me I hate shoes, Id go bare foot if I could :) And now that the kids are back to school, it gives me a little more free time so I will be posting more often.  Have a Blessed weekend.

Back To School

Yes, today is Wednesday, but here in our city, school started today. My son wasn't to thrilled to go back so soon, but I was ready :) On Monday we took a trip to Tucson to do some more school shopping, he got what he needed and we got our car serviced too. I pray that all of you have had a great summer with you're children and that all of our kids have a safe and blessed school year. Have a great week.

High School Football

Wow what can I say, but High School Football. Ive been SO busy all this week, driving my son back and forth every few hours for practice and running at 5:45 am and I am TIRED, they call it Hell Week at school and now I see why. So I'm sorry for not posting lately, hopefully next week things will be back to normal. Have a great week all and be blessed.

Thankful Thursdays

I pray everyones week has been good and that you're having fun with you're children. Today was a little scary for me, my son had to have a small surgery on his toe for a in grown toe nail, probably worse for me, moms know what I mean here, we don't like seeing our kids in pain, but he, we did good :) I was doing the praying in the corner, not watching, I'm not good at seeing blood. So for today's Thankful Thursday,I'm thankful for my son and for all the Lord has provided for us over the years of being a single parent, don't get me wrong, everyday is a struggle, but with my faith and hope and trust in the Lord I know for sure we will be taken care of. My prayer is that more people put there trust in the Lord, this world sure would be a better place. Today on the news I heard about a precious 10 year old who was abused and killed by members of her family, It really just breaks my heart, but I know that shes with Jesus now, with no more pain, a precious angel. Hug you're children tight and never take them for granted, Be Blessed and have a great weekend.

We've been very busy once again, my sons trying out for the football team so Ive been running him back and forth to practice and hes still trying to have some fun before he goes back to school on August 10th.

Happy Sunday

Happy Sunday to all, today's a beautiful day, the sun is shining, the birds are singing, its just another day to be thankful to be alive and serving the Lord. I got up today took out the dog and enjoyed the sun, came in and made Banana Pancake's for my son and I, the first time Ive made them, but they were very good, they taste like Banana bread, I will post the recipe. One of my favorite songs at church is, This is the Day That The Lord Has Made, Let Us Rejoice and be glad in it, I pray that you all have a day of rejoicing, enjoy the day and be blessed.
