I walked into the preschool where I taught just minutes after the first plane hit the tower. We were standing around discussing what must have gone wrong when someone got a call – a second plane hit! What in the world?!?! It really didn’t register right away that we were under attack because terrorism was not a part of our little world back then. I spent the rest of the day sitting on the couch, watching those terrible events unfold.

I am thankful for Freedom, and for everyday heroes who die to protect it. To all of our soldiers, police officers and fire fighters – Thank You and God Bless!!

I posted some 9/11 activities over at Link & Think.

We are finally getting settled into our new house! I feel a little lost after a week & a half with no internet 🙂 We have a busy weekend full of birthday and graduation celebrations, so I’ll see you back here on Monday!

Have a blessed weekend!!

I felt the need to introduce myself again since I’ve been a complete stranger TO MY OWN BLOG!!    I tell ya, having a baby at 37 is way different than at 27. Good thing she is totally worth it! My other kiddos have been a huge blessing during our adjustment.

Here’s a look at what’s been going on in our neck of the woods:

• Our little Sweetpea is turning 6 months old!!
• We are in the process of buying a house and hope to close at the end of the month
• My sister, her hubby, & their 4 kids moved up here from San Antonio. Woohoo!!
• They will be renting our current house and planned on moving here at the end of March. We didn’t know at the time that we couldn’t close until the end of April. Soooo, we’ve had a big slumber party for the last month and God has really blessed us with a great time!
• Our house (& yard) is currently home to 4 adults, 9 kids, 6 dogs, 3 fish, 2 rabbits, a cat and a lizard. Oh, and a frog the kids found in the strawberry plants today.

I promise to get back to my regularly-scheduled random posts. I have lots of great links to share, products to review & lovely things to tell you that God has shown me. See you soon!
