My adorable twin sis emailed this link to Free Christmas Music Downloads on Amazon.  She knows I have a Christmas music problem…This year the kids asked that I wait till at least mid September before listening to it.

Thankful for my God who sweetly woke me up this morning, my husband who got up early and went to work, my children who help each other get ready for school, my garage which kept the frost off my van windows and my new copier which automatically prints front and back.

Read John 14 – 16 out loud.  Soak it up then come back and tell me what you think.

Every wonder if Google is taking over the world. You know it’s true, they’ve sucked us in with their ever impressive gadgets and apps, their products keep getting more and more enticing. Ever wonder exactly how much they know about you? Now you don’t have to wonder anymore. Today Google launched Google Dashboard Billed as a the newest “Transparency, Choice, and Control” I have to admit it’s pretty cool and um…a little scary. Not only have I given them access to 90 percent of my online communication now I’ve linked them into my phone lines as well! They know what I say, who I say it too, they handily store my pictures, videos, contacts and if I let them they’d  even have my health info.

How much does Google know about you?

Have you seen The Nativity Story? This is a fabulous faith film that will most certainly find it’s way into many family traditions. The owner of our local movie theater was so impressed with the movie he offered a free screening of it to the community a few years ago.. Kurt and I took Kaleb and Charleigh who really enjoyed it. It opened up a lot of questions and I remember wishing it was on DVD so we could pause it and answer each one. Right now with it being only $4.99 and with Christmas right around the corner I think it would be a great time to pick one up.
The Nativity Story will be released on DVD on 03/20/07

The Nativity Story, DVD By Word Entertainment, Inc. The most magnificent portrayal of the nativity ever! Witness the struggles and joys of the Holy Family—and the Savior’s birth at the turning point of history. Epic in scope yet intimate in detail, this major motion picture spared nothing to ensure historical accuracy and cinematic power. A film to be cherished for years to come! (PG, some violence.) 101 minutes.

Hi friends, my dear hubby has been giving the address out of late. Not concerned that I haven’t added anything in years and that my most recent posts are only excuses about why I don’t post he still gives out the address. So here you are. Welcome. This is who I used to be and I guess a lot of who I still am. Enjoy. Hopefully all the links still work. Love you much.
