Good Morning World! I woke up at the unfamiliar hour of 6:15 a.m. this morning feeling rested and ready for the day. I am usually an early riser, but I mean a 7:30 early riser, not a 6:00 early riser. There is a big difference in the two. Anyway, moving on. Just to let you guys know, I didn't just want you guys to see my beautiful face on yesterday's post, although lucky you ! Just kidding. Anyway, I was trying to figure out how to get that picture put on my profile. I followed the steps to do it, and i even had lee in here trying to help me figure out how to do it, but alas, the picture link was to big for the profile. I think we tried about 5 othere pics that we found on the internet to try to use for my profile, but they were all too big too! Does anyone know how to do this or what to do about it? If you do, please let me know. Also, Lee and I could not figure out how to link other folks's sites to mine. All of the templates that we tried out didn't have a place designated for links, and we couldn't figure out where to write them into the html text. Anyway, I am no computer genius at all so any help would be wonderful! On other topics...yay yay yay! I am in arkansas this week, like I said before, and I am having so much fun just enjoying my family. Today I am going to stop by a little shop in Warren and buy some candles for myself for a birthday present with some of the birthday money my grandpa gave me. This wouldn't be such a big thing, but they are JADE candles. Yes,that's right. For anyone who is familiar with them, you know what I am talking about. They are without a doubt the best candles I have ever had. They smell wonderfully, they have a long burning time, and are all in all just good quality candles. And they are made in the small town of Tillar, AR so that just adds to their charm for me. I got my first ones from Phillip's grandma for Christmas last year. It's so wonderful to have a grandma again. Both of mine have passed away, but Phillip's grandma really makes me feel like one of her own, which I am now, and I reallylove her. It's so great just to call someone "grandma" again, you know?Can I just stop and brag on my new family? They are awesome. I love everyone of them. Kim, my mother-in-law, has really become a second mom to me. Chris and Jeremy, Phillip's little brothers, (Chris is older than me so it's really weird for me to call him Phillip's LITTLE brother!) are great too, and it's just so obvious that they all love each other so much. And Chris's wife Jackie and their two girls and all my new aunts and uncles and cousins... I just can't stop thinking about that phrase "my cup runneth over". My cup truly does run over, and for that I am thankful. I know that alot of you don't know about our situation for the past few months, but the Lord really called us into financial suffering for Him, and it taught us alot. The main lesson that I learned from all of it, besides trusting Him and His will no matter what, was the importance of people. Family, friends, even strangers God puts into our lives to bless us and and to be blessed by us. I love the verse in the bible, I believe it is somewhere in John, that says that no one has seen God, except for through his followers. We ARE Jesus to people. What a blessing, but what a responsibility goes with it, you know? Anyway, that's my soapbox moment for the day. Back to the candle. After I buy it, I am headed to see Lee Ann and Suzanne P. and hang out with them. I am so excited! I am having Suzanne P. withdrawals. I swear. One of the first nights that we were in AL and I was still a little lonely from the move I told Phillip, " I just haven't found a friend here like Suzanne yet!" And it's true! I know, you are probobly playing the worlds smallest violin now to go along with my sob story, but anyone who is friends with Suzanne knows that she is one of the truest friends that you will find, and it is only natural for me to miss her alot. After Suzanne's, Lee and I, and maybe Suzanne, are going to watch "The Devil Wears Prada" at the movies. i am so excited! I have read the book and am anxiously awaiting the movie. After the movie, LeeAnn and I are headed to the Little Rock to keep the Josh-man, my dashingly handsome nephew. I will try to attatch a picture of him on this post, so that you can see exactly what I am talking about when I say "dashingly handsome. The little man could be the gerber baby, he's so cute. So all in all, I will be having a great day. So, on that note, I think I will start it! Adios!
