Santa Party and an Auction

 My Friend Caryn had a meet Santa party on Sunday afternoon.  It was a magical time!  We had a lovely time.  The house was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!  It got me in the Christmas mood!
SK was a bit nervous about Santa.
 Emily told Santa that she would be happy with anything he brought her.  Santa was sooooo friendly and kind.

 SK wanted to watch from a far for a few minutes.
 She warmed up.

This was a magical memory that the girls will never forget!



One of my very best friends, Sara, from college is now a missionary.  I enjoy seeing her every Summer.  She means so much to me!
Her brother, Tim and Sister in law, Cassie feel lead by the Lord to adopt from Africa.  The Lord has worked miracle after miracle to place twin boys in their family.  They are almost two years old.  They will be given a wonderful home.  Cassie and Tim are fantastic people.  Cassie amazes me because she can do it all and do it all well!!!!!
Cassie is having an online auction to help with the expenses of adoption.  I want to encourage you to check out her online auction and pray for them as they go through this process.

Something Good to Eat

Ever since Steve and I started dating, when we would go to Mississippi, his aunt would make the BEST ROAST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Steve's Dad's side of the family gets together at his Granny's house for lunch every Sunday after church. The food is always sooo good!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always taken a liking to his Aunt Judy's roast. It really is the best roast I have ever had. When we were there on Labor Day weekend, my sister in law asked Aunt Judy for the recipe. Aunt Judy began naming all the ingredients. She said Ranch Dressing mix, and I bugged my eyes out and nearly chocked. I HATE RANCH DRESSING. I don't even like to be in the room with it. I had to focus on the word MIX....not the mayo and butter milk and sour cream that you add to it. Just typing those words makes me shudder. The recipe sounded awful as she rattled off the ingredients, but I promise, you have got to make this if you like a good roast. Trust me on this. Here it is: Get a tender chuck

Complicated

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now.  Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago.   We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun!  No stress at all, as far as I can remember!  I just played.  I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year!  Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons."  WHAT?  I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go?  I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST.  I guess that's a go

Life in Pictures!

Emily is enjoying her first year in band.  I am very impressed with her playing skill! Sarah Kate was recently awarded the empathy award at her school.  She is very deserving of this! Here we are before the Cotillion Holly Ball.
