So, I've been tagged . . .

I'm it! I've been tagged. It is now 1:15 am. I am awake to feed Erin and can't think of anything better to do at this time of morning than blog. This tag thing is pretty crazy. Normally, I don't respond to emails or other chains like this, but this time . . . I guess I will.

1. A Bible verse that means a lot to me is . . . Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in Him and He shall bring it to pass (Psalms 37:4 & 5). In the disappointing times of life, this verse has been a great encouragement to me.

2. My greatest desire in life is to raise my children to love and serve God with all their hearts.

3. My biggest encouragement as a parent is the quote - " You don't have to be perfect to be a successful parent, you just have to be genuine."

4. My favorite food - TACOS; favorite color - PURPLE; favorite season - SPRING.

5. I am the world's worst at spelling. The only time I ever remember cheating in school was on a spelling test (not something I'm proud of). :-)

6. Presently looking for a way to work from home. Any suggestions, anybody??

7. Someday I would like to pursue further education and a career in the area of bookkeeping/ accounting. I love working with numbers!

Nana & Papaw Gordon's Visit

We were thrilled to have Nana & Papaw Gordon come to visit. Their main reason for coming was to meet their new granddaughter, but we made sure they stayed busy while here.

Papaw worked hard installing extra shelving in Dawn's kitchen pantry and also painting and wallpapering Kaylee & Erin's bedroom. Thank you, Papaw for your expert advise and excellent work. (We made sure that he also had time to read a book or two :-) )


Kaylee & Erin's new bedroom.




Nana's project while here was to spoil the grandkids :-) She spent lots of time tending to Erin which was a big help to a "very tired mommy". Kaylee and Matthew got their share of attention, too. The list of other things that Nana did is too long to mention here.




THANK YOU, Nana for all your help. You were wonderful!!!!

Please come again soon!!!!
