WOW!!! It's been a longggggg time!!!

It's been so long since I've visited my blog that I had to reset my password just to get in! I guess Facebook has taken over my time and many of you are there also, so I just forgot all about updating the blog. For those of you who are not on my FB, feel free to add me! :)
Tomorrow is my birthday YAY but my husband is out of town on a job BOO so me and the kiddo are going to the movies tonight, his treat ;) I love my kid and our conversations. Todays topic was; when you are ready to get baptized, would it be up in Indiana with your family, here at the house in the pool, or in the ocean?! His only response was "there's not enough room around our pool for everybody to be here." <3 How sweet is he that his vision is to be sorrounded by his church family. I told him that it looks like it'll be in Indy then, since he expects everybody to be there! I LOVE IT! He's so wonderful. He loves our church and everybody in it so much. THAT makes me HAPPY!! :)
Have a WONDERFUL day! Catch ya later!! sis j~

Coming to Indy!!

David and I will be coming to Indiana Friday, June 26. I wanted to give a heads up to everybody as to what we are doing so I can try to be able to see EVERYBODY in the short time we will be in town. We miss everyone and hope you'll be able to meet with us. so, our agenda looks like this, but may change if the weather does not cooperate..praying for NO RAIN. Late Friday, come into town. Saturday: Spending the day up north to see my family and friends in the Pendleton/Lapel/Anderson area. Sunday: Church on Southport Rd. After church, lunch..chinese? Then going to Plainfield Park, approx 2pm. Bring your play things, I want to fly a kite!! LOL Monday: Spending the day with John, Brittany, and Brooklynn to celebrate Brookie turning 2!! Tuesday: Spending the day with Timmy, Mandy, and Kerah to celebrate Kerah turning 2!! Wednesday: Swimming at the aquatic center in Plainfield!! Come join us!!! and then Church at Southport Rd. Thursday: Heading back to FL..trying to avoid 4th of July weekend traffic. I hope to see as many of you as possible. It's so hard to get around to see everyone..and loved ones are always missed. I figure the park is the best way to get to spend time with everyone and not have to lose precious time traveling to each individuals homes. I LOVE YOU ALL!! See you soon!!

FINALLY!!

DJ is FINALLY at his last day of school for this year! Now our summer can begin! I have a feeling it is going to go by WAY to fast.. We are planning on a few visitors this summer that I am TOTALLY looking forward to! and Tim is trying to line some work up in Indiana so we can spend some time there with church and family. I'm really looking forward to that, too!

Hope everyone has a safe and beautiful summer!!

For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. -Psalm 84:11

Let's see if I remember how to do this! ;)

Today was a school field trip to Universal Studios..It rained pretty hard, but it was FUN! So, guess who was in DJ's group of friends..Joe..yep, Joe the bully..now known as Joe the BUDDY! Thank you for the prayers for that situation!! Praise God!!! This mother's heart is SOOO comforted!! You know, this field trip was so much more than just a super cool place to go..It let me see that DJ is finally adjusting to our move here. The field trip we took to the zoo in January had me concerned because he just didn't seem to know where he belonged, but now.. I'm so thankful to see how much he has grown and that he has started to adapt to life at his new school with new friends. He was very happy today, and therefore I am very happy.

Other news, my little grandbabies are turning 2! I can't believe it! It happens so fast. Brooklynn's birthday was May 19th and Kerah's birthday is June 2nd. We miss them sooooo bad. Planning on seeing them in June!!

Tim is strong and healthy, although he has had some funny activity with his heart. The other night he was afraid to go to sleep because he said he was having heart palpitations. He stayed up til around 4am and got out of bed at 10. I'm very concerned. He could use your prayers. He has had heart issues ever since I've known him.

We've had a lot of visitors here the last 6 months or so. It's been great! It has really helped me not feel so seperated! I'm adjusting to life here, although I miss church and my brethren terribly. I hope that NEVER goes away. If I stop missing it, then I'm in trouble! I've been trying to catch up with everybody on here. I've seen the sorrows and the joys and I'm glad to be able to pray for you and your loved ones.

Here's a pic of that storm Sis Frankie was referring to a few weeks ago. I took it from the top of the St. Augustine Lighthouse. Let me tell ya, seeing a storm cloud like that will get your prayer wheels turning!! lol. Tim thought it was a beautiful pic. It made him imagine the heavens opening up. It is rather beautiful..now that it's not a threat anymore! ;)

Have a safe and beautiful weekend!!

LOVE YOU!!

COMING HOME

I just booked flights for me and David to come to Indy from Feb 13-Feb 16. Tim and I thought he needed to be around church, family, and friends for a weekend to help build him up after everything he's been through lately. We will be getting in late on Friday. Saturday we will be getting some things from the house and spending time with family and seeing his pals in the nieghborhood, i imagine. Sunday we will be a church *yay* and then I'm going to have a get-together to celebrate his 13th birthday Sunday around 3. I'll let you know for sure where when I figure it out! It will be a great reason to get together and show him that everyone is still a huge part of his life even though he is far from home. He actually asked if he could have a birthday party there so he could spend time with everyone. He misses everyone. I can't wait! Love you ALL!!

oh..on the bully situation..looks like they are partners in Tech Ed class. When I asked if it was assigned, he said, "No, we chose to be". He's so easy to forgive. I love him so much. He's so good. Continue to pray about it, please.

David's birthday

My baby boy is a teenager today! I can't believe it. I so don't want him to grow up. I want to keep him forever as my little boy. What am I to do? I'm already beginning to feel the "empty-nest syndrome" kicking in. *sigh* He's such a good boy. Thank you to my brethren that was aware to pray for him concerning his "bully" at school. We contacted the school and the counselor observed the boys,witnessed it happening. Then reported it to the Dean. The dean talked to the boy and DJ says that the boy is trying to be his friend now. I told him that I had asked Grandma to ask for prayer and he was glad. Praises to God for taking care of this for him. <3 Love you all.

I'm Still Here

Just wanted to let everyone know I'm still here. Catching up on everyones blogs. Got lots of reading to do!! Love you all.
