GOD IS IN CONTROL!!!!

Just never know what life is gonna throw your way. Today my mother and father-in-law's home caught fire and 1/2 their home was destroyed. 40 years of hard work and memories up in smoke. Not sure what God is doing in all this but I know he's in control. I know he will see them through this!!
I JUST THANK GOD THEY WERE NOT HURT!!!!!
Please pray for them as they will certainly need strength and grace during this time. The holidays are upon us and this is be a tough.
I heard a local radio station playing Christmas music today and I just wasn't mentally prepared for that; I got really upset just thinking about not having my Dad here. I'm sure there will be many more times like this!!!
Also pray for my friend Pam after having surgery today. She will have several weeks of healing.
Till next time...GOD IS GOOD...all the time.....BOY THAT'S TOUGH TO SAY AT TIMES LIKE THIS BUT HE'S GOD WHEN YOU'RE ON THE MOUNTAIN AND IN THE VALLEY!!!!

GO SPIRIT

Savannah had her first basketball game Monday night. Her coach asked her to play up with Varsity. She was soooo excited and nervous. The girls won their game 53 to 14. Savannah got some good play time each quarter. She made one of the last baskets in the game. We are so proud of how well she played!!!

YEAH SNOW!!! Got to see a litte bit of it off and on yesterday!!! It was so pretty coming down.

Well I keep saying I'm going to have pics to show of everything but just finding time to download...UUGGH! I'll get em soon.

Later folks...GOD IS GOOD!! All the time.

A WEEKEND OF FUN!!!

Derrick's team lost in the 3rd round of the playoffs today. He played his best but I told him "You can't carry the whole team, everybody has to do their part!" He received another blessing with his team today by being selected MVP of the game. My husband said that coaches from the other team were coming to shake his hand and commented on how well he played. What an honor to have such good things said about your children!!

I can't say enough about the wonderful ladies meeting we had at church this weekend...Classic Lady was the theme.

We had two guest speakers, Mrs. Finley and Mrs. Cathy Berry. What a great, great blessing to here them both. I had never heard Mrs. Berry speak. She was just so, so funny. Reminded me a lot of listening to Mrs. Marlene Evans. Same great spirit and just so funny.

Our Preacher's wife Mrs. Rhonda Talley got a great surprise for her birthday by having her daught Tammy and grandson Tanyon flown in from Idaho on behalf a some of the ladies at the church. She was so, so excited and just cried and laughed and cried some more!!

It was really a fun, fun time.

The decorations were absolutely beautiful once again courtesy of Ms. Tammi Schnarrs...she is just so, so talented.

I went a way with several personal decisions and things I need to change. Overall I beleive everyone got a blessing from the music to the speakers to the food!!!

Tomorrow is Old Fashioned Day at church. Gonna be a lot of fun there too with great "Old Fashioned" preaching, music and dinner on the grounds. Then off to my inlaws house for my neice's 13th birthday.

Well off to bed now. I'll hopefully have some pictures to load from church tomorrow as well as some really good pictures from the children singing at church last Sunday night!!

Take care..remember GOD IS GOOD!!!...all the time.

Playoffs Round 2

WHAT A GAME!!!

WAY TO GO VIKINGS!!! Great game tonight and the team gave God the glory!!! I am so proud of my son's coaches. They pray before and after every game. What a great testimony. They won the 2nd round play-offs against Powhatan Cheifs 13-12. It was a very, very close game. Derrick made several great plays stopping the runner. It was a complete team effort.
Also one of the players got injured during a play. The team on the field was in a huddle. One of Derrick's team mates spoke up and said "Hey Derrick why don't you pray for Terrance" And so he did....Terrance walked off the field and was able to come back in the game!!! God is good! I told Derrick that is a good testimony to carry that his team mate know he's a Christian and prayer warrior!
