My Favorite Part of the Day

Today was freezing cold. I think it only got up to around 35 degrees outside. I was really dreading having to leave the house, but I just HAD to get groceries. The kids did a little bit of schoolwork, I got myself ready, then got Stinky Face ready, and finally gave the baby a bath and got him ready. It was going on noon and we hadn't had anything to eat yet, so I decided that we would have lunch together. We went to one of my favorite restaurants, Raising Canes. They have really yummy chicken, fries, and Texas toast, and the best sauce to dip it in.

Sitting there in the restaurant with my 3 boys was absolutely my favorite part of the day. It was worth the effort to get them all ready and go out into the freezing cold. I still spent way too much money at the store, but now hopefully I won't have to go out again for quite some time.

Be blessed my friends!

This is going to be really short because I am at such a loss for words tonight. So, my favorite part of the day is when I had a ton of energy and got some housework done for a change. 

Scratch that! My husband just asked me what I got done. Apparently I'm the only one who noticed. Goodnight world!  

Be blessed my friends!

Well, it's not the greatest picture in the world, but it was one of my favorite parts of the day. This is my Stinky Face showing us his peanut that had 3 nuts in it. For everyone who knows my little guy, you might find it shocking that he actually enjoyed eating the nuts! He can be so picky, so it was nice to know he was getting some protein in. 

We had dinner at Logan's Roadhouse. Our wonderful friends and neighbors joined us. There were 4 adults and 4 kids total. Service was pretty bad. I actually had to go hunt a waiter down and explain to them what sugar was. I just wanted sugar for my sweet potato, and they kept giving me cinnamon sugar. It all worked out in the end though. Since service was bad and it took way too long to get our food, we ended up getting our meal completely free! I'm just glad that the food tasted good. I actually ordered a steak too. I usually don't get steak, but since I have a seafood allergy and they told me that they can't guarantee that anything fried (the onion petals that I wanted for example) wouldn't be dipped in the same oil as the seafood, I decided to have something even better and opted for the steak. Tomorrow is the start of our 21 day fast, so I'm glad we got to enjoy a nice meal out with friends!

Be blessed my friends!

I had a lot of great things happen today. We finished all of our homeschool for the week. So far the new year is off to a great start concerning school work. Our friends took me and the boys out for dinner and then I got to come home and be lazy for awhile. Then to end the night, my wonderful husband went out at 11:30 PM to get me chocolate chip cookies and milk. I have to feed my craving right now because the day after tomorrow, we start a fast and I won't have ANY sugar for 21 days! YIKES  Fasting is so hard, but with it comes great rewards. 

Be blessed my friends!

January 3rd

My favorite part of the day was finishing the book of Deuteronomy. I have been stuck on this chapter for way too long! Now bring on Joshua! 

My Favorite Part of the Day

Wow, it's 11:30 at night and I just realized that if I don't write something now, then I would've already broken my goal for 2013 which is to write something on here every day. If I can't think of something or don't have much time, then I'll write about my favorite part of the day.

So, for January 2nd, 2013, my favorite part of the day was actually finishing homeschool with my 7th grader. Not only did we complete everything I wanted to accomplish, but we did it without much frustration. Thank you Jesus!

My New Year's Goal

This year my goal is to post every single day, whether it's a short sentence or a paragraph. To help me do that I decided that I'm going to post my favorite part of each day. This will also help me to stay focused on the positive things in life.

So, for my first day, my favorite part of the day was the way it started at 12:00AM and that was ringing in the new year with great friends! I'm SO thankful that God has placed such wonderful people in our lives.
