Snowflake Saturday

The weekend was not very good weather-wise!  Saturday morning was cold, has some sleet balls/hail then big, fat snowflakes.  




Eric finally was able to get out and repair a patch where the shingles had blown off in a recent storm.  Summer helped him.


Our eggs haven't been as high as some in the country but this is not good.
After fixing the roof, Eric and I went for an early date to our little Mexican place.  He always gets a torta and I get a carne asada burrito.  MMMM!  
We then went to Wal-Mart for a few things and then to the gym for a long workout.
The girls were supposed to have a Youth Activity with Timberline from 6-8:30pm but was cancelled due to Colin being sick.


This is Fig's schedule.  Come out in the morning and sleep right there on the couch.  
Sunday was normal schedule.  The girls go to Jesus and Donuts at 9am for the teens and church is at 10am.
I made cheddar smoked sausages and fries for lunch and then we had a normal afternoon - that's football for my husband.  LOL
The girls then go to Youth Group at Grace from 6-8pm.  We end our Sunday nights with pizza rolls together. :)



It is few and far between in the winter when we have clear skies for a sunrise. :)  This was a beautiful one!
Especially on a Monday!





This is where Jack sleeps most of the time.  Especially when I am sitting on the loveseat.  I don't know how he doesn't fall off!



Fig is a loner and finds spots to sleep away from you!  Ha!

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."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour ...
