Catchin' up on things.

WOW!!! Things have been really busy around here lately.

We, meaning Nate and I, started school August 23. Wow, didn't realize how long we had been in school. In 2 weeks or less we will not have school for 11 days. SWEET!! Can't wait to get away from Biology. I would have to say that is the hardest subject in the world, well, at least this year it is. A few weeks ago we went to a home school field trip. It was a lot of fun. It was the dog trials in Meeker. There was people from all over the world. There was a lot of very good dogs. That, to me, is very fascinating to watch.

Fall has finely showed its face. It has started to rain and leaves are falling. It has been getting very, very, very COLD and it will just keep on getting colder!! I love fall, it is a beautiful time of the year. The colors on the leaves just before they fall are AWESOME!! It is wonderful how God has given us 4 seasons. Well, some people think we actually have five with mud season being the extra. How would you like it if it was always summer, hot and dry, or if it was always winter, freezing our toes off. I am so glad I can cool off in one season and get hot in another season. God is really great. He knows what our every need is. That to me is so AMAZINGLY AWESOME!! Fall is not just about the color of the leaves, it getting colder outside, or even snow failing and Christmas coming. To me it is a time of thankfulness. A time to thank God for all he has done for me that year. Thank Him for the family and friend He a so lovingly gave me. I can also thank Him for my salvation He so richly gave me. Remember that Fall is not the only time we can thank God for all He has done for us. If you wait to thank Him at thanksgiving it will be to late. You will have forgotten a lot of things He has done, and it will be a VERY long "thank you" list. So make sure you think Him every day?

Church is going great. I have started playing the piano for church on Sunday day and Wednesday. Thomas plays the piano on Sunday nights... keep up the good work, you are doing a terrific job. For offertories; Shelby, Nate, Thomas, Mom and I work to gather. I love playing the piano for the Lord. It is great to honor Him in so many ways. God has given the youth group a great teacher. Mr. Reedy has been such an encouragement to me. Thank you so much Mr. Reedy, for helping me get back into Gods Word. In the youth group we have about 6 to 9 kids that come. Praise the Lord. God has definitely helped the church grow. I thank Him so much for it all. With out His help we would be nothing. We have a new couple in out church. Well, OK, so Daniel has been at the church for over a year. I can't believe he has survived this long with out a wife.... Hahaha! Daniel and Rebbecca Wilkinson just got married on September 19. Dad preformed the wedding ceremony for them in Texas. You guys are so much fun to have in the church. I now at least one of you will read this, so think of yourself as special. Thank you Daniel for being an encouragement to me and being our church song leader. Rebbecca thank you too for being an encouragement. You two are the BEST. I am praying that God does wonders for you both (I know He already has). By the way Rebbecca, some how I am going to get you a cat. Just to tease Daniel.

Please keep on praying for the church and its people. By the way, thanks for all the prayers that have been sent to Him for this church already. If it was not for God I would not be living the life I have been living for Him. Thank you so much for your love, your care, and your guidance through every day. Psalms 119:35 "Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight".

Please have a great day giving God glory and honor. Praying for all of you. Everyone reading my blog please have a terrific fall and stay warm.
