Fireproof

I would not consider myself a great blogger, a perfect Christian, nor a movie buff.  ..... but if I could recommend just one thing (no, beg you); please, PleAsE go watch the movie, Fireproof.

I would probably say this movie could potentially impact your life as much as watching "The Passion of the Christ".  Of course, "The Passion" was a movie (a different kind of movie) that took you to the core, giving a tiny look on the sacrifice Christ made for us.  

Fireproof, on the other hand, can take you to the core of your relationship.  Go here, to see listings in your area.  Really try to see this movie as soon as possible.  Supporting this movie, will allow more Christian movies to be made! 

Did I say, "Please, please, please"?  And really try to go with your spouse.  I went to see it with a girlfriend and then went back a second time; this time with my husband.  

Question:  When was the last time I went to a movie?  Answer:  I can't remember.  However, friends, if you want, I'll go see it with you; making it my 3rd time (willing to go 4, 5, 6 times!)

With many blessings,

BOOM!

Why haven't I been blogging? 

 I had (oops, I mean my daughter had) a major volcano project.

             

The 6th graders were broken into groups of 3 & 4.  Each group had to make a homemade volcano.

During the ordeal, we're thinking, "You have got to be kidding me!"

                       

After weeks of work (during science class, after school & at home), the long awaited day arrived!  Time for the explosion.

Some went off wonderfully and sadly, some did not.

  Luckily for us (I mean, them), the volcano went "Boom" with 'Red Lava' and all!

Congrats to Jess' Volcano Team!  Bada-Boom!

Green (ish) Acres

A trip to the country

Moo from Madisonville, TX

A down home visit with our friends from Alaska!

I don't know about you, but I'm thinking about milk & oreos!

Horses and cows and bulls .... oh my!

Blessings from God's Country :)

Boo!

Even my girls are nagging me to post....  what has the world come to???

Happy, belated Halloween !

We had a great, laid-back, slow-going Halloween.  You only make it to a few houses when each house is 1/2 an acre apart.  Whew, its a work-out.  The smart ones in our neighborhood had golf carts!

Jessie, the babydoll 

(We had to come up with our own costume, as all the teenage-ish ones were WAY too sexy).  I was actually thinking about wearing one of them; but for an 11 yr old??? - Either the belly was showing, too tight, or too short (& the thigh highs)  

Audrey on the other hand, insisted on a homemade costume.  She's a (cute) scary spider.  She had me dusting off my sewing machine for all those legs!

Hope your Halloween was full of sweet treats!
