Someone is going to be an Aunt!!!!!

Hey!

I am going to be an AUNT in September!! It is all so exciting! I think I am still in shock! My brother is going to be such a good father! Joe and Niki are moving back soon so they will be here when the baby is born! :)

We got about two or so inches of snow yesterday! It is so beautiful!
I love snow so much!

Well, I am off to ride our blind horse.

God bless you all! :)

Wisconsin! :)

We (Mom, Dad, Sarah, Geoff, Paul, Joe, Niki, and I) are in Wisconsin visiting family! The snow is so beautiful!!! They had gotten 12 inches of snow right before we got here! I hope I get to go Snowmobiling!:) It is so cold here it nearly takes mt breath away when I go outside! :)
We visited Grandma last night and she seems to be doing pretty good!
On Wednesday we are going to Michigan to see the Smalls and spend one night with them and then Thursday we are going to visit the Capeharts and stay a night with them. :) Friday morning we will leave the Capeharts and drive ten hours to Tenn. for a wedding near Cookeville(sp?) and then on Saturday after the wedding we will drive ten hours to Mo to take Joe and Niki home and reunite Sarah and Geoff with their car.

God Bless you all! :)

A quote

I have been reading "Lies Women Believe" by Nancy Leigh Demoss and I wanted to share what she has to say about emotions.

Lie #32: "If I feel something it must be true." "If we feel like we like we can't cope with the pressure, it must be true that we can't make it. If we feel God has deserted us or that He has acted unjustly in a matter that concerns us, then perhaps He has let us down. If we feel our situation is hopeless, then there must be no hope. If we don't feel saved, then maybe we aren't. If we don't feel forgiven, then we must not be.
In many instances, feelings are simply not a reliable gauge of what is actually true. When we allow them to be tied to our circumstances--which are constantly changing-- rather than to the unchangable realities of God and His Truth, our emotions are prone to fluctuate wildly.
In the midst of the roller-coaster ride our emotions sometimes take us on, we have to constantly bring our minds and thoughts back to the Truth. The Truth is, God is good, whether I feel like He is good or not. ........If we want walk in freedom, we must realize that our emotions are not necessarily trustworthy and be willing to reject any feelings that are not consistent with the Truth."

I hope this is helpful! It was very helpful for me because I think that I was believing that lie.

Lizzy

P.S. I recommend reading " Lies Women Believe"!! Nancy Leigh Demoss is such a great writter!!

    Amen to this.
    Sounds like a good read!

    Mrs DeMoss is indeed a good writer. I like the challenge of seeking Scripture to check out her truths. Your additional points are good.

A accident

I just went into town with one of my brothers and we rearended someone at a stop light. No one was hurt. Paul was kinda distracted because I was talking to him about something! So it was partly my fault. I had never been in any kind of accident before so I was kinda shaking. Wow, things can happen so fast! Neither car has a lot of damage, but enough.

God bless you!

    Oh wow! Glad that you guys are safe! My brother and I had a similar experience this summer as we were taking him down to FC. We were the ones who did the rear ending and we did it to my dad...who was driving a rental car. It was crazy.
