Giving it another shot

I have realized in this last year or so that my gift is most definitely NOT writing. It doesn’t matter how badly I would love to be a writer, It’s just not the gift that God has blessed me with and It’s time that I be content with that. So, I will give this blog thing another shot but with a different viewpoint. Instead of trying to sound like a writer, I’m just gonna write like me. My punctuation will be off and some of my sentences won’t make sense, but I hope that you will get the overall point that I’m trying to achieve.
And now, onto my new beginning…
Since I have written to you last, we have gotten a new member to our family. I’m proud to introduce to you… Ginger!

She is such a sweet dog and we love her to bits. She also keeps her big sis Maggie on her toes, and they love to cuddle!

My kids are also crazy about her, she really does fit into our family perfectly. But she is also a baby and so we are teaching and potty training all over again!

Other than that, we have had a busy year with my daughter starting school last fall and gymnastics and soccer and swimming, and... you know how it goes.

It's also been a great time of learning for me. Learning to relax, learning to be thankful, learning to give more (of myself and my things), just a continual process of learning and allowing myself to be taught, that is the key. We must let ourselves be teachable or we will hinder our growth whether it be spiritual or not. Being teachable is key.

What do you think? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Love Andrea

Photo post

So, I was gonna write a nice long post today, but then I remembered that I had a bunch of cute pictures in my camera just waiting to be displayed. So, enjoy… I couldn’t think of a cute saying for each picture, cause It would take me a long time. I’m just not witty like that. But, I hope you enjoyed the pics! Have a great day!!

‘Fun Days’ of Summer

   This week were supposed to get really nice weather again, so I probably wont post much. This past weekend we had ‘Fun Days’ in my town. There was all kinds of things to keep you busy. Friday evening was community slo-pitch, and a wiener roast after. Saturday was a free pancake breakfast, a slo-pitch tournament all day, bouncers for the kids, face painting, petting zoo, a flea market, a silent auction, evening entertainment, and so much more. It was a busy place to be! In the morning, we went as a family for breakfast and then my husband went to go help a friend of his, so it was just me and the kids. I took them to the ‘Fun Days’ for lunch and we stayed for a few hours. It was very hot, and they needed naps so we came home and relaxed for the rest of the day. Here are some pictures from our weekend: We ate a lot of freezies, and cotton candy, got our faces painted, and tried to find shade where ever we could! It was a really great day! I love summer festivals, ...
