Thursday - More Camping Prep and Yard Work

Thursday was a busy day - so nice to have a break in the cloudy weather! Always nice to have the day end this way! I love the way the clouds and the sunset looked Thursday.

Beautiful new flower that bloomed this week!

Double-checked our air mattresses for camping. Then Eric helped me fold them up and pack them back in their bags. That job is done!

Aren't flowers prettier against a blue sky? These are some of my roses in my backyard.

I had a very productive day. Cleaned the girls' bathroom well and moved all their things back in it (since the flooring was done).

Then cleaned our bathroom well.

Swept, vacuumed, and mopped the floors. Dishes and dusting. Lots of cleaning but felt good!

Take Sierra and Autumn both to work and then pick them back up.

After putting the tents away, Summer and I mowed the lawn and trimmed. Wanted to get that all done before the rain came back on Friday.

Made bacon cheeseburger rice for dinner. Then off to softball practice at 5pm for Summer. Pick up Autumn from work. Did a workout and tanning at the gym during practice. Double up those trips to save on gas!

Then home to do the dinner dishes and tie up some loose ends.

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."...
