Today is September 26 and I haven't blogged in forever! Life has been really hectic around here, but hopefully things will fall into place soon.
My baby turned 8 recently, I just can't believe it. She had a great birthday though, and she doesn't know it yet but there is yet another surprise to come. She mentioned going to a local amusement park for her birthday, as she planned her 'day' a few months back lol. However, that place is rather pricey and we just couldn't afford it. However, my husband's employer gave out free admission tickets recently, so woohoooo! here we come!! We haven't told her yet, we're going to visit her grandfather who lives near the park and then just drive up to the place. Won't she be shocked??
Otherwise, we're just muddling along best we can. We have been trying to learn how to live on less money in the hopes and prayers that the Lord will lead my husband to a different job. This one stinks! lol He has been there a long time, so we are doubtful that he will be able to get another job that pays as well, hence the learning to live on less. We would like to live closer to his dad, as he is the only one of our parents still alive and he is quite elderly. This would move us about 50-60 miles away, which is fine with all of us, but we need a new job! Pray for the Lord's will in this situation; patience is very frustrating. I know the Lord is "able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us" (Ephesians 3:20)
Thanks for visiting, y'all have a great day! |

Your dd will be so surprised when you bring her to the amusement park!
We are hoping to move in the next couple of years to a place out in the country. My dh got done at his job where his boss was not so nice. He's now working for a different employer (who is a Christian!!). He makes less money but we've cut our budget so we should do fine! I'll be praying your dh gets a new job so you are able to move that is at least the same amount of pay if not more!
God Bless you!
