Have a Blessed Christmas!!

15 different kinds of cookies, 6 trays filled and we still have some left over!!

Now I can enjoy the weekend!!

Merry Christmas!!

Cookies! And lots of them since I said I wanted to make cookies! List so far and I don't think we are done....Snickerdoodles, Almond Crescents, Cherry Vanilla Chip, Peanut Butter Balls, Cut Outs, Cinnamon Butterscotch Blondies, Haystacks, Cappicino Brownies, and oh boy I forgot the rest, lol. This week I know my husband Henry plans on making some Gingerbread houses. It's been so fun....Family time....gotta love it!

Trust!!!!

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."
Proverbs 3:5-6

Early Christmas presents for the girls. My dad and step mother always send them a gift card, so I let them use it before Christmas this year. Was really hoping they would pick out clothes rather than toys....yeah right! 

Things have been a bit crazy the last few days....you know the saying when it rains it pours! Henry's truck broke down, so we have been down to one vehicle. That doesn't make things easy. I wanted to pick up more hours at work, but his work schedule this week has been hectic....so I can't. Just when you think things are going well, God give you tests! Sometimes it is really hard to have faith....I am trying. Today just got me down. But I know He gives us nothing we can't handle!!

My share for the day is this Link to some very festive Wreaths!! 
I would love to try some if I only had the time!!

Thinking about cookies!

Each year you and your family are to eat them in the presence of the LORD your God at the place he will choose. Deuteronomy 15:20 

Christmas cookies our on our minds! Within the next day or two we will be going through recipes and buying baking supplies. I think Saturday will be a good day to start! Something fun for the whole family to get involved with. So what are your favorite Christmas cookies? Have any recipes to share?

Check out this assortment of cookies on The Pioneer Woman's Blog! 

Decemberrrrrrrrr

  I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.—Ps 139:14

So....my first real blog post in a very long time. Yes a lot has happened in the past few months....good and bad, but more good than ever before! Lots of changes! Good changes!
