week in review

week in review text

     

Week’s Weather  We had a dose of Fall this week… some rain, some cool mornings and warm afternoons.  It was a nice week!

Sunday Sermon  was about the tabernacle being unattractive on the outside, and smelling bad from the burning of meats, but the inside was beautiful… and about how church can draw a crowd just like a sports event, but it’s about more than a head count… it’s about ministering to needs.

Life lessons perseverance pays off!

Favorite Meal(s) frito chili pie!

Treasured Moment(s) family devo time in the evenings… reading scripture and discussing things with the kids.

Simple Pleasures cooler temperatures, hugs, and snuggling while sleeping.

Talked with a lot of people being certified as ministers in the AG. Some headed to Africa to be missionaries, some heading to Mexico, some in the area.

    Love the pink harness. And congratulations to Matt!

    Did you enjoy the McCain and Palin’s convention speeches? I’m excited and intrigued by Palin. I’ve long admired John McCain and his speech only made me admire him more. What a truly fine man and American. It took guts to take the Republicans to task at their own convention. Politics today is so corrupt – I loved hearing him talk about changing all that if he’s given the chance to be president.
    Geez. I’d better stop. I get entirely too wound up about this. lol

    Huge Congrats to Matt! Is working towards becoming a pastor? I think I might have missed something what with my long absences from blogland this summer. Emelia is adorable and looks very happy sitting on top of that horse. :) Sorry to hear about your gas prices–ours have gone down a bit, but are still painful.
    Have a great week–

    The weather here has been fall like too, and I am loving it.

    Why, oh why, did you have to mention Frito Chili Pie? That makes me crave the Frito Chili Cheese Wrap with onions from Sonic. Yum!! :-)
