Getting back in touch with my Blog




Okay, so I haven't blogged in awhile and I really miss it. It was a way for me to unwind after my day and I discovered that I really enjoy writing. I joined facebook a few weeks ago but it's just not the same as blogging. In fact some of it is stupid. I did get in touch with one of my high school buddies though which was cool.
Some escapades from the last time I blogged was
1. Greg and I went on a cruise to the Bahamas and Grand Turks Island last November with my brother. It was a birthday present for me back in June. We had an awesome time! One pic above is Greg at Grand Turk and my brother and his girlfriend with the bahama lady vendor, she was cool.

2.We had a really nice Christmas, nice and quiet at home with just the fam. We decided to see Marley and Me that night and while the movie was cute, the ending was so sad. She dies and to me it was way to graphic. I came home and loved on my dog who looked exactly and reminded me so much of Marley. To me dogs to me are little angel companions that God puts in your life to bring you joy and unconditional love. No matter what you do your dog adores you and never gets tired of you. They love you to pieces with no strings attached and you just can't help but love them back. Okay this blog is going wishy washy. I guess I am in a wishy washy mood. God bless whoever may read this. Although probly no one will :-( .... how do you get people to read your blog??

Breakfast at the Samaritan House, the homeless shelter in Kalispell


Today I served at the Samaritan House, our local homeless shelter with a bunch of ladies from our church bible study. We cooked and served breakfast and learned alot about this awesome place for the homeless in our community. It was such a blessing to be a part of. My heart is so stirred up to help more. It is so true that when you bless others and forget about yourself, it brings great joy to your heart! I was amazed at how God provides through this awesome couple that head this ministry. Everything is provided by grants and donations. They only serve dinner and cereal for breakfast. We made breakfast burritos and danishes from Costco :-) .. It stirred us ladies up so much that we all decided we would like to be part of this and cook and serve them dinner once a week. So we are going to make this all happen. If you want to learn more about the Samaritan house, please go to their blog. There is also a great video clip at the bottom of their blog.
