Actual Labor Day!!

Well, this weekend my husband and I decided to stay home and get some house work finished. WE actually put the labor in Labor Day!! HAHA!! He put in a new front door with beautiful stained glass. He put in French Doors in our family room. Thank goodness, because our sliding glass door was about to fall apart. I'm just working on the office. I'll be sanding and putting primer on the walls tonight. Tomorrow I start to paint. Always fun, especially when I can't figure out which color to choose.

Thank you Lord!!

Well, I can not believe I am going to say this but, I am excited about the new school year. I can't wait to see my coworkers and students. Plus, I am taking my Master's classes at the same time, so I know I will be very busy. I was hoping to coach volleyball this year, but it doesn't look like I will be able to. Maybe next year.

James and I were talking last night about how nice it was to have our days off together. We were able to go to the beach, visit with friends, remodel the house and just hang out with each other. I will certainly miss those days. Now that school will be starting, I won't be able to see him that much. Plus he is studying for his engineers test. I know he will do great.

We have been so blessed in our lives. The Lord has helped us get by in times of turmoil, financial hardships, and crazy schedules. James and I have pulled through together, always aksing for the Lord to guide us and use us as an instrument to spread his loving and amazing words, and to help bless others. It sounds funny saying this, put because of our crazy schedules we have grown more in love with each other and the Lord. James and I are able to have such a fullfilling life because the Lord has truly touched us and continues to guide us in our thoughts, words and actions. We continue to live such a wonderful Christian life, and we give thanks to the Lord for everything in our lives. Our friends have seen a change in us and they are amazed at the love we have for the Lord. WE pray that our friends and family will open their hearts to the Lord and receive him. The Lord has done incredible things for us and we know the Lord can do incredible things for those who accept him in their lives.
