"Here is the bottom line: do not worry about your life. Don't worry about what you will eat or what you will drink. Don't worry about how you will clothe your body. Living is about more than merely eating, and the body is about more than dressing up. Look at the birds in the sky. They do not store food for winter; they don't sow or reap - and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. And you are even more precious Him than a beautiful bird. If He looks after them, of course He will look after you.

Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these things will be given to you. So do not worry about tomorrow. Living faithfully is a large enough task for today."

Matthew 6:25-26 & 33-34 (The Voice New Testament)

A productive week!

Well, it's been a long time since my last post...a lot of stuff has been happening...more than anyone probably wants to read about! So I'm just gonna boil it down to a few bullet points! :) Aren't you glad?

1) We had quite a few health issues for the past few months...I think we're almost all on the mend!

2) Still no job...but the Lord has really used our church family here to rally around us. It's been really good to finally feel like a part of the church here. :) But now that we feel that way, we're ready for a job! :)

3) We've all decided we don't like winter here. It gets dark WAY too early (5:15!) and it's really depressing! Can't wait till spring!!

K...well, that's pretty brief...believe me, I did it for your sake! If you want the gory details, you're welcome to ask...but be prepared with a cup of coffee and quite a bit of time! Lol... :)

So, I'm gonna post some pics of what I've been working on this week. I'm gonna try to start sending stuff with the girls to school...to see if they can sell them for me; any way to try to make some money! And I'm just excited to finally feel like I have the umph to get anything accomplished! So bear with me as a I brag a little! :)
