Evan's 14th Birthday Party

Boy, I got behind the last couple weeks on posting my blog posts. Trying to keep up with the girls on school stuff - we are in the last grading period! Sierra has been working 16 hour weeks at McDonald's so trying to keep her up in school is a small challenge. LOL! I can't wait for summer!

Ahh, summer. I am looking forward to more sunshine and warmer temps. This is my willow tree in our backyard. Love when the leaves come back!

And then there is Fig. My sisters say I send way too many pictures of her but she's so cute. I can't help it. :)

I love cats' bellies! They are so soft!

And those big back feet! OK, enough about my cat.

Another book to read on my 2022 book list.

I am frugal and I like to try to get as many of my birthday freebies as I can. This was a peanut butter and chocolate cone from Baskin Robbins.

Some of my sweet birthday cards.

On Saturday, March 19th, we went over for a birthday party for my nephew, Evan. He was turning 14 on the 22nd.

We stayed to play some Dutch Blitz!

A fun evening with the fam!

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure. 100 Days of Joy and Strength. I was struggling last night. Darkness seemed to overwhelm me. The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope." Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;" II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light." Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...
