Trusting God

This month is a hard month for us as a family. We have been hit with every obstacle that could come our way and it just seems ridiculous. Most of them seem completely out of the blue and something that we are not prepared for and others are things that we knew were coming up but thought we were prepared for them except when you add everything together. Seriously I'm not sure what else we can take on. 


Not all of it is bad but still adds stress. Needless to say I have been on my knees a bunch this month and it's only the 6th! I'm praying and trusting God with everything that is going on. He is the only one that can see the big picture and knows where we are going. He's going to lead us to the right places and He will provide everything we need as long as I'm asking for it. I know because He gave me what I asked for but it just seems like He did it at the wrong time. 


There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven. -Ecclesiastes 3:1 


He is timing everything and I believe that He is trying to push M to see Him in everything that is going on. God wants M to know Him again and to trust Him and each of our trials we go through and each time God pulls us through to the other side it shows a little more of God's true heart to M. It's not easy to know that we might not have so many trials if M would just believe but that's OK. I'm willing to go through these to get him there and I love seeing God's work through my family. It's great to say "God did this for us" or "God gave us this". 


So here I am down on my knees everyday asking God to just lead our family in the right direction and to provide everything we need. I know He's good and He will do it so I will keep asking. 


I'm trusting God this season of our lives!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
