1. Weather here in Texas has been awesome the last few days the temps have drop dramatically. I have actually been cold in the mornings and David has finally gotten to wear his much loved much anticipated new under armor hoodie. He has been looking for a hoodie like this for years and finally found one this summer. He hasn't quit smiling.

2. On the down side it has been EXTREMELY dry here. We have had tons of fires in our area. One of which was just a few miles from our house that burned over 3,000 acres. Ironically it was just down the road from the house we tried to buy earlier this year that didn't work out. Maybe God was saving us from that.

This map shows all the fires in Texas over the last week....so crazy! Please continue to pray for the people affected by these fires and all of the firefighters that continue to work hard to keep them under control. Thankfully all of the fires in our county are now contained. Oh yeah and pray that we get some rain soon!

3. I took Maxi (our weenie dog) to the vet last week and found out she has a hernia. The vet suggested that we get her fixed and the hernia repaired. So no more hopes of little maxis in the future. I scheduled her surgery for the end of this month.
4. I permanently got rid of my Facebook. I hadn't been getting on it much on account of it made me feel yucky being so nosy plus David hates Facebook and (jokingly) says its from the devil. In hindsight I'm glad that I did it. Its nice seeing people in town and them actually not knowing every detail of my life. It also is nice not knowing every detail of theirs.
5. We will hopefully be closing on our house on the 19th of this month which is pretty exciting! Were praying that everything goes smoothly. I will even give you a little sneak peek. Just keep in mind we have several things that we plan on doing to it (like cleaning flower beds etc.)

Its cute and simple which is the way we like things. Its also in in the school district where David went to school so hes pretty happy with that.

6. Fall is fast approaching and that means craft show season and a very busy few months ahead. I have been crocheting my little fingers to the bone and look forward to seeing some old faces and buying cool things and hopefully making a little Christmas money selling some stuff.
7. I really suck at coming up with blog names! I have no clue what to name this one but I don't want to use my last name anymore so hopefully I will come up with something soon. Also I'm thinking about moving over to WordPress. It seems a little less complicated and I heard that Google was making churches pay for there email addresses now which I don't like so we will see.

8. Big news! Ive been praying that God would re-veil His will for my life for a long time and He finally did. Or a portion of it anyway. Ive always felt like God wanted me to be a momma and raise my kids to live for the Lord wholeheartedly but I could never figure out why I wasn't being blessed with kids. Well He really been working on my heart for sometime now and Ive argued up and down with Him the whole way. God has put it on my heart to become a foster parent. Sounds crazy huh? Well at least to me it did a first. Ive talked to David about it and we have both prayed like crazy about it. We don't know for sure when God wants this to happen. Right now we are just running it past our family and friends and I have been researching agencies in our area. I will update you further and plan to devote a whole post to it soon. Ill leave you with this video. It gave me chills. Make sure you pause the music player at the bottom of the page before you play it.
