Great reminder from Kim! “He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with his own hands, that he may have something to share with those in need.”Ephesians 4: 28 It is good for us to work! To do something useful with our hands! We were created in God’s image and He worked (created) for 6 days and then rested. Let us use Him as our example, create and rest!! We were not cursed…
Today Gary and I went shopping for Christmas Tree decorations. While we were shopping, it started POURING down snow! The snow was as big as quarters! Then today was the Truth Project. Before hand, Amber, Hannah, Bethany, Christa and I worked together to make an amazing dinner of wedding soup, fruit salad, and quiche. We had a great day together!
We had an incredible Financial Seminar, thanks to Asaad Faraj, Matt Wandrie, Mike Skupin, and Ed Murray. Everyone learned a LOT, including me! I am excited to repeat it again soon. It was truly a blessing, and I am grateful that these gentlemen volunteered their time and expertise to help others! Then we went to the Carollos for a night out with the Mallinos and Carollos. We have been getting together several times a year (taking turn at each other’s…
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at my parents’ home! There aren’t any people I’d rather be with than my amazing family. We were very entertained by Scarlett, Juliette, and Madeline this year! The food was terrific, but the company was even better!
Gary, me, Jesse, Amber, Gabe, Hannah, Mike, Bethany, Christa, Brandon, Daniel, Emily, my sisters Laurie and Diane, my nieces Shalene and Rachel, and my nephew Michael, and Greg Fisher, Greg Moon, and Jacklyn all went downtown to run the Turkey Trot, a 6.2 mile run before the Parade. It was SO MUCH FUN! The weather was the best in four years. The run was long enough to be challenging, and short enough to stay FUN!
We had a great time learning about Alzheimer’s Disease at the Ritz Carlton in Dearborn, then going to Rachel’s Sweet 16 Birthday Party. If any one is SWEET 16, it’s RACHEL!!!!
Another great word from Kim: “Rejoice in the Lord always! I will say it again: REJOICE!” Philippians 4: 4 Let us REJOICE!!! Let us CELEBRATE!!! Let us PARTY together in the Lord!! Now these are words to pick us up today! In the midst of our pain, hurts, problems and sufferings let us Celebrate in the Lord!!! What Joy and Peace He offers us!What Love He unconditionally pours over us! What HOPE He gives us that things WILL get better!…
Jesse and Amber and Gary and I went to Joey and Katie’s wedding at Inn of St. John’s in Plymouth. It was a beautiful wedding. it was wonderful to see all of Gary’s family – we rarely get to see them and they are such special people!
It has been amazing seeing Mike and Bethany’s new home transforming before our eyes! It certainly promises to be amazing! And now my AMAZING cousin is going to do the hardwood floors — he is a MASTER at doing them — this is getting exciting!
Great reminder from Kim! “The Lord Himself goes BEFORE you and will be with you….” Deuteronomy 31: 8a God is already there!!!!! Whew!!!! ALLELUIA!!!! He has already been through it!
