Thrilled to Dance


This Years Family Christmas Picture.
We took this picture at the Christmas Tree Lot in Ramona. It's a cut your own tree down place. The boys have a lot of fun running around the lot trying to find their tree. They have a bean bag game that you can play and win a cookie, ornament or a treeling. Fun, Fun.

I was testing out my camera's timer and snapped this great shot of Auston and I. He really is a handsome young man. I love this Season.

I have made a new friend. She is a single mom with two little boys. I can see that GOD has drawn me to be her sister in Christ. I know that there are a lot of people in need that I have come into contact with, you just have to listen really hard sometimes to who Christ has selected for you to help. I am doing that and I feel really good about myself. God has moved me and I am thrilled to dance for him.

This came from my Christmas card for this year:
Love Is God Shining Through You.
Love Is Giving What You'd Like To Receive.
Love Is Taking The Time, Even When You Don't Have The Time.
Love Is Listening With Your Heart.
Love Is Being There.
Love Is Believing In The Good, The True, And The Beautiful.
Love Is The Light Of The World.
"The Only Thing That Counts Is Faith Expressing Itself Through Love." GALATIANS 5:6

The CHRISTmas Season

I know that it has been a while since I have written anything. I am trying to keep up on this for you as well as myself. I have made this into my journal, so my kids will have something to look back on when they are adults. I have be printing them out and putting them into a 3 ring binder marked "Janet's Blog Journal".

I am so excited that Christmas is coming. I love the season thats for giving. I am going to our Women's Christmas Dinner on friday, i am looking forward to that. I would love to be more involved with the Women's Ministry. I have been praying about that. Most things are hard for me to do because my hubby works days and nights and sometime weekends. If it is meant to be be then GOD will open the doors for me.

I had a great time with my bible study group last night. we prayed on our own and wrote down our deepest thing we wanted to be done with and give it to God. I felt so relieved after this exercise! we also took communion. Our leader, Josh, is a wonderful man and has really stepped up in bringing us closer to GOD! Thank You Josh! I am so grateful for all my new brothers and sisters in Christ, I have become a better Christian because of them all. God is Good!

I am looking forward to the rain coming but, hopping we don't flood. I love the rain. It gives us an excuse to gather around the kitchen table and play board games, dominos or cards. My son seems to always win? I don't know how that is. We are also planning on getting our Christmas Tree this weekend. I am so excited.

I am also excited about join the gym. I have been going at least 3 times a week and feel great. I haven't weighed myself because its not about the weight, its about feeling better about myself, feeling healthier and feeling accomplished. Although i took this 30 minute class last night that KICKED MY BUTT. i don't know if i am going to attempt that one again. I like to weight lift, go at my own pace and feel the burn the next day.

I am Wishing you all the blessings of Christ's love in this beautiful holy season and always. (I got this from our Christmas card that we are sending out this year)

AMEN!
