"Happy Birthday Kiddo!"

I have been celebrating birthdays with Larry since he was 15 years old! How exciting is that? That's a total of 31 birthdays so far! What to get him, what to get him...funny how our presents change thru out the years. This year we found this great deal on an almost new BBQ at a yard sale last Saturday...This thing was spotless! I think the people may have used it three times at the most. Finding a present we all can benefit from! It's a good thing! Happy Birthday to my best friend for life!

I will never look at the Grocery Store the same again!

Oh My....imagine what the store workers thought of these shoppers! You can see they didn't even need a shopping list. They knew exactly what they wanted! Silly boys! Gotta love em! These kids (my sons and nieces) took a mundane chore in life and made it fun! They found creativity in the most unlikely place! I want to do that more! I want to have more fun doing the everyday stuff in life! I think God wants us to do that too! He wants us to look for joy in the most unlikely places. It's not about the things on our grocery list it's about our attitude while we are putting them in our cart. Asking yourself questions like, "Lord who would you have me serve this week?" Who should we share a meal with? Thank you for providing so we can buy groceries. Thank you that I am able to drive myself to the grocery store and get out of the car by myself and push my own cart. Thank you that I can find the opportunity to smile at a stranger in the produce section. Thank you that I can talk to the clerk and ask them about their day. Lord, thank you for allowing me to see you in everything! By the way I need to go "Grocery shopping."
