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...

The ABC's of Our Family

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...
