Jes, I hope you feel special, because I have not posted since 10-6, and I am only posting today to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Yes, today is Jes's b-day, so if you haven't told her yet, now is your chance!  I love you birthday girl have a fabulous day!

Oh yeah, and one week and one day till fall weekend, I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!

O.k. so I am just now checking my e-mail and xanga subscriptions, and yes I have been tagged.  So I have to write my top ten favorite things, which is good, because I am kind of in a crappy mood, so this will make think of things that make me smile :)

o.k.

1. my Daddy, Abba, God, seriously my soul purpose for living.  Brings such unbelievable joy in ways I never knew I could be happy.  Father you rock my face off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2.  My unbelievably gorgeous husband.  Who knew love could be so grand.  We will be married 6 yrs this December, and every year is better than the one before.  If it is possible I do believe that I love him even more than the day I married him.  (Again God rocks!)

3. Olivia!  Need I say more.  She rocks, another fine example of how awesome God is!  She has a bit of a diaper rash, and tonight it was hurting her, so while she was crying she said and I quote, "God, my bottom hurts, I have a little rash, please make it feel better."  Wow.  I love my pumpkin!

4.  Beth Maupin (Katie and Chris too!)  When I think of what we have been through and what God did to heal our realtionship, how can I not be happy.  It's a beautiful thing when God displays his power in such an intimate way!

5.  My beautiful friends that God has given me.  Steph,  I adore talking to you, it's a little nuts how much we are a like sometimes. Jes, I miss spending time with you, but I do enjoy our ims.  You bring down to earth which is nice!  Jen, you are so fun and bring out my girlieness, T-money I love how much you love people, Jill I love to watch you worship, Kelli and Mandy I love that I have no expectations of anything around you! Katie I enjoy your silliness, Allie I enjoy you boldness.  I seriously could go on, but you all know you rock, and if I missed you, I am sorry it's late, and I do love you!  Oh yeah, k-money and Michelle, seriously two of the coolest women ever!

6. Starschmucks!  I do love the place.  One sugarfree french vanilla Breva please.  Two shakes of cinnamon, one of nutmeg and 5 splendas.mmmmmmmm perfect.

7. David Crowder!  Need I say more.  Annointed! I guess that would also tie in with how much I love worship music!

8.  Fusion!  I love the leaders, I love the students, I love the staff.  I can't even beging to tell you all how you have affected my life.

9. Fall, hot chocolate, sweaters, jeans, fleece, festivals, pumpkins, 60 or below weather, bon fires!  Fall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!

10.Family get togethers.  With any of my family, all sides.  I know it sounds nuts, because quite a few of them drive me bonkers.  I just really enjoy everyone getting together and spending time together!

O.k. lets see, I think like everyone has been tagged, sooooo, here goes I tag kiss_me_Kate23, girlygirl1015188, god'slittlebug....have fun!

Chillin with my sis tonight!  Meeting a family I am going to help babysit thier children tomorrow, hanging with Jes on Thursday, making christmas cards on Friday, bibles study saturday morning, fusion on sunday and picking up Jim and Michelle from the airport, and no baby.  Yes it will be a busy week, but a fun one.  I get to chill with some of my favorite peeps. 

 By the way Jes, yes it was a very long post, and I admit I did not read it all.  The bit I read rocked, and I will prob check out the message.  I did like your first two questions.  They got me thinking about what I do when I get stressed.  Answer :  hmmmmm..... eat, hence why I originally gained weight.  What does that do to me spiritually, it puts up a wall between God and I, as I so nicely push him back, and put food and everything else before him.  Needless to say this is another distraction in my life I will be working on.  Thank you for being used by God to bring this up.  I needed up. 

God help,  I am currently stressed a bit and need you to satisfy me, not food!  I love you. It's in your name I pray....amen

Very exciting morning today!!!!!!!!  I got to attend "see you at the pole", at Lakota East Highschool.  It was awesome!!!!!!  I got to spend my morning with three fabulous ladies (Lindsay Kirkland, Allie Toms, and Missie Keith)!  God showed up in an awesome way.  There was worship, and then they went around the circle, and each person said a brief prayer.  WOW!  Then towards the end, Allie got my attention, and there in the middle of the circle was the shadow of a large cross.  No joke.  We all saw it. It was unbelievable.  We were all looking around to find out what was making the shadow, but we couldn't find anything.  How flippin cool is our Dad?!!!!!!!  You know he's  always there, but then he shows up and makes himself known in such a physical way, there is no denying him.  Thank you Father!  I'm still blown away by the students beautiful, bold and humbling prayers.  Seriously beautiful!    I just kept hearing God say, "Do you see my army?"    Then one of the teachers started praying and reminded us that a lot of the people God used in the bible were teenagers or younger ie: Mary, Esther, David, Samuel.....on and on...... No wonder the enemy tries to destroy their lives.  Teenagers are powerful, especially when being used by God, and he knows that and it scares him.  I encourage be bold! 

1st Timothy 4:12 " Don't let anyone think less of you because you are young.  Be an example to all believers in  what you teach, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity."
