That's What Faith Can Do

Prayer Request

This past week has been hard getting on Facebook and seeing so many friends hurting because of someone hurting with cancer. It is a tough word, and it has hurt so many families including mine. It hurts, I pray that each one heals quickly! I pray the pain does not linger in there body. I know what the pain feels like, and there is not much you can do except lay and moan. Thankfully, we serve a loving and powerful God! 

Onto the individuals that need prayer:

*Michelle's son Brady's girlfriend who found out she has a second round of cancer

*Janet from church. Read her story:

*Tiffany Daniels, her grandmother who has cancer, but she is now on life support

I left this quote with my friend Michelle tonight. It is one I found when I was going through cancer:

"You go nowhere by accident. Wherever you go, God is sending you. Wherever you are, God has put you there. He has a purpose in your being there. Christ who indwells you has something He wants to do through you wherever you are."Dr. Richard C. Halverson, Chaplain of U.S.Senate

Praying

I saw this that a friend from church posted. I pray daily that my children sat a good example at school or where ever they are. Importantly, that they are around friends who will guide them in a positive way and towards God. 

We are blessed with a wonderful church: Bentonville First Baptist where they are fully engaged in Awanas, and Sophie's first year of GA's! This year will be Allies first year of Awana's and look forward to seeing her grow in the Lord!

 

Have a great week!

Allie Is Three

Our youngest turned three on 8-9-10! We are beyond blessed with her! She is a miracle! Two weeks after having her I found out I had cancer. Doctors do not know till this day how long I had cancer with her. They did say even if we had found out they could not give me chemo treatments. We are beyond thankful she is a healthy sweet girl! God has blessed us and brought us through so much!

 

 

I am thankful God gave you to us!

Pinteresting It Up!

I have been going crazy on Pinterest for projects! This week I ordered a Silhouette Cameo! My friend  sold me on it. I saw hers this past weekend and I feel in love. There are so many things I can do with it. Especially with wood, fabrics, etc. I am excited to start using it for my bags and wood projects!!! Below I have attached some pictures of the projects I will be doing when I get it in!

First Grade-Sophie

Sophie started 1st grade August 1st! She has a lovely teacher who we love! Her name is Mrs. Owens! We look forward to a wonderful year with her!

 

 

New Lamp Shade

I refurbished a lamp that I got at Hobby Lobby for super cheap!

Supplies

• Burlap
• Spray Adhesive
• Scissors
• Roll of Burlap on a spool in the ribbon area

It is very easy to do! It was covered in a blue burlap, and I took it off. Once taking it off I put my new burlap on very carefully! Lastly, I put my grey burlap ribbon around it and used the spray adhesive to keep it in place!
