Life

Guess what ! I am so excited! All of my regular readers know that since September we have been attending Christian Life Fellowship in Calera. This is the longest amount of time in at least 5-10 years that I have gone without being on the worship team. That is my calling, that is my passion, I love it. Today I was asked back! Yay. I love sooooooo blending my voice with others, worshiping God. I just love it. This worship team is soooooo good, some times we even have that Wilson Phillips sound... Sigh. I LOVED the sound of Wilson Phillips, but never listened to them because I didn't like the words most of the time. I was so thrilled to find out that Chynna Phillips got saved and did a christian album. Here is one of her singles for her new group Chynna and Vaughan, called One Reason

I'm not a puppy photographer...

but if I were, she would make me rich! Granite took a moment to sneak in and pose for me.

He is just toooo pretty to be a boy... lol

This is my pill box. I am getting old. Normally I am only on three, a antiacid, Strattera, and a Blood Pressure pill, but right now since I am recovering from Mycoplasma, I am on an antibiotic. I just thought it was funny, this is a white, or clear box, all my pills are blue!!! Q told the kids that I told the doctor that I would only take blue pills!


Meet Amelia




Our newest family member. Her mom was a papered Golden retriever, and her dad a black lab... Her owners were not happy... They bought mom to breed... unfortunately nature took over... lol works for us, we got a free puppy. However she didn't like the bath.




I was gonna show you what I had for Supper...

THE love of my life and my very reason to breathe next to God.
Ha... I was playing with timed release of the shutter, and trying to make a heart.


Sam didn't want her picture taken, and Nana was trying to hold her still.

Sorry this is all that was left of my food by the time I went to take a picture... It was good.



I AM A DISCIPLE OF JESUS

I AM A DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST.

I WON'T LOOK BACK, SLOW DOWN, BACK AWAY, OR BE STILL.

MY PAST IS REDEEMED; MY PRESENT MAKES SENSE; MY FUTURE IS SECURE.

I'M FINISHED WITH LOW LIVING, SMALL PLANNING, COLORLESS DREAMS, TAME VISIONS, MUNDANE TALKING, AND CHINCHY GIVING.

I NO LONGER NEED PROSPERITY, POSITIONS, PROMOTIONS, PLAUDITS, OR POPULARITY.

I DON'T HAVE TO BE RIGHT, FIRST, TOPS, RECOGNIZED, REGARDED, REWARDED, OR PRAISED.

I NOW LIVE BY PRESENCE, LEAD BY FAITH, WALK BY PATIENCE, LIFT BY PRAYER, AND LABOR BY POWER.

MY FACE IS SET; MY GAIT IS FAST; MY GOAL IS HEAVEN; MY ROAD IS NARROW.

MY WAY IS ROUGH; MY COMPANIONS FEW; MY GUIDE RELIABLE; MY MISSION CLEAR.

I CANNOT BE BOUGHT, COMPROMISED, DETOURED, LURED, DELUDED, OR DELAYED.

I WILL NOT FLINCH IN THE FACE OF SACRIFICE, HESITATE IN THE FACE OF THE ADVERSARY, NEGOTIATE AT THE TABLE OF THE ENEMY, PONDER AT THE POOL OF POPULARITY, OR MEANDER IN THE MAZE OF MEDIOCRITY.

I WILL GO UNTIL HE COMES, GIVE UNTIL I'M EMPTY; SPEAK UNTIL ALL KNOW, AND WORK UNTIL HE STOPS ME.

I WON'T GIVE UP, SHUT UP, OR LET UP UNTIL I'VE STAYED UP, STOOD UP, PRAYED UP, AND PAID UP FOR THE CAUSE OF CHRIST.

I AM A DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST.



Crock Pot Lasagna (creativity when the oven dies)

If you are reading this on face book click on "view origonal post" below, to see the full recipe and pictures.





Crockpot Lasagna
Ingredients
2 ½ lbs ground beef
Goya Adobo

Dehydrated onion chips
2 large tubs Large curd cottage cheese (Wal-Mart brand is good)
1 four cup bag Mozzarella cheese
Parmesan cheese (or as Juliannah calls it “stinky feet cheese”)
1 egg
2 jars Prego garlic parmesan spaghetti sauce
Lasagna noodles
First step prepare ground beef. I don’t fry mine, I boil mine. Put about 2-3 inches of water in a large boiler. Put in Ground beef, coat liberally with Adobo, and cover with onion chips. This is key, as part of the wonderful taste is the seasoned meat. Set heat to medium, and let it begin to boil. Take two forks and separate the meat into small pieces as it browns. Cook until all meat is brown. Drain meat, and rinse well with water. In a large bowl combine Prego sauce jars with meat, and stir together.
In another large bowl combine both tubs of cottage cheese, bag of mozzarella, and egg. Cover the top of this mixture liberally with Parmesan cheese. Sorry I don’t measure this. Then mix all of these cheeses together.
Now you are ready to put it in the crock pot. Get out your crock pot and cover the bottom with your sauce meat mixture. Put on top a layer of noodles (I do not pre cook my noodles, so you have to splinter the noodles into slivers to make a covering of noodles, but no one can tell after it is cooked). Then put on a layer (about a ½ inch thick) of cheese mixture, then a layer of noodles. Continue this until you fill up the crock pot. You want your top layer to be cheese.
Put your crock pot on low; let it cook for about 4 hrs, and then place it on high for a little over an hour, until you see sauce bubbling up through the cheese. Then unplug it, take it out of the pot, place it on a heat proof surface, and allow to “cool” and “jell” for an hour. Then cut and serve. Since is soooooo deep you only want to serve in 1 inch squares for kids, maybe 2 inches for adults, and Justin and Que want about a 4 inch square! ;)








This WAS my lap top...

No this is not a picture of a kid in trouble... Yes that WAS my laptop, but about 18 mos ago I bought a new one, because the chassie on that one broke.

However, Nana continued to use it, she just left it open all the time.Then, the space bar fell off... then the u popped off... before it was over several letters were gone. How did she use it? she found a onscreen keyboard that she could use to input data... lol Finally she brought it to me about a week ago and said, "It's dead... here ya go." So today, she and her brother wanted to take it apart, so we let them.



This is my favorite picture, I love how you can see her smiling face in the old monitor glass...



So...


Got a question for ya...

This isn't rhetorical I want input.

I have heard it said that "What you listen to you endorse." Speaking of gossip and such. Sooo then is there a difference between that, and simply not saying anything when your colleagues are telling dirty jokes, or talking about drinking or stuff that you don't do.
Is there, is there a difference?

Sorry guys!


Little update here, school started at the University of Montevallo Monday, and since then I have been so busy I haven't had a chance to post! I am a Psychology Major, and I am taking two classes on Monday and Tuesday nights. I do enjoy it, but now I am in upper level classes (I am a senior!) and in each of my classes a paper is required to be turned in weekely. Shew! I am gonna be busy!


13 National Championships!


I love this picture! I didn't take it, I googled it... But I love it! We did it!

I'm not afraid of 13!


Tristadecaphobia...



They say the number 13 brings bad luck because there were 13 men present at “The Last Supper." The reason the Friday the 13th is brought in is because Jesus was crucified on a Friday. So, just for something to do, and to poke fun at 13 (which is my favorite number btw), I chose my 13th file and the 13th picture... A wonderful memory, my daddy grilling some steaks this year for Memorial day... That was a memorable day... pun intended... lol It is also the file that that umbrella pic came out of btw... I might just start a 13th day post, and post some of my favorite things on the 13th of each month... Cool.
