Easter Card Exchange

I pulled the Cricut out of storage today to work on a few cards for the Easter card exchange with the gals at MHH. I like the green ones the best. I'm now off to address and mail them!

Peace and Blessings,

Lisa

Small Successes~March 25, 2010

FaithButton

Welcome to this week's Small Successes. I'm positive that these are small successes, but still important:

1. I started a prayer journal as a dialogue with God. It helps when I write things down and my prayer time seems a bit "deeper".

2. We have finally gotten to the final contract phase on the new house, so all the big decisions have been made and we should be on our way soon!

3. I finally was able to fix the drawer in my classroom that was sticking out because of something stuck behind it. It's a 3 foot drawer, so it was quite the affair, but I'm so thrilled that I did it myself.

Blessings and peace,

Lisa

Menu Plan Monday, March 22, 2010


Welcome to another Menu Plan Monday, hosted by Laura at I'm An Organizing Junkie. This week's menu will be fairly simple. We have so many things going on in our life, it has been hard to keep up with cooking every night. I miss the consistency in our life and can't wait for this house to be sold and the new house to be ready! Prayers for my sanity would be appreciated. ;0)


Sunday~ Slow Cooker Spaghetti Sauce over Spaghetti, Veal Parmesan, Salad


Monday~Kielbassi and Kraut, Mashed Potatoes


Tuesday~ Dinner Out


Wednesday~Chicken Soft Tacos, Mexican Rice and Corn


Thursday~Stuffed Green Peppers, Mashed Potatoes


Friday~Fish and Macaroni and Cheese, Coleslaw


Saturday~Pizza and Wings



Have a week full of blessings,
Lisa

Spring Time!



Today we took a ride out to camp to see how everything weathered the winter. We're pleased to say that everything held up well. I took a picture of the camper, because, well, I wish I was actually camping....

After checking out camp, we stopped at our lot (which we now own and have an "official" address for!) so DH could show me where the house will sit. It will be on the left side of the photo. The lot is 9/10 of an acre, so this pic shows only about 1/2 of it.


Another view....
Thanks for stopping by!
Blessings,
