Some Fun Pics :)

Anyone think a man chopping wood is sexy? Well I do! Look at my sexy husband :) He even let me chop some. I hope there is still plenty of chopped wood when we get back there this weekend.





My sexy husband also buys me flowers, aren't they pretty?




We did burn some of the wood John and I chopped. Don't you love a wood burning fire? This weekend I plan on having marshmallows and hot chocolate. Yummy Yummy!





We made it through the Thanksgiving holidays and are all ready for Christmas. I have almost finished our Christmas shopping. I just need a few fill-ins and to buy all my baking stuff. My brother is coming home for Christmas this year, I can't wait to hang out with him.

John is working out of town again today, but he will be home tonight. What should I surprise him with? I have supper planned. Are flowers a surprise for a man too? hehe

Thanksgiving :)

I have so many reasons to give thanks. God has blessed me and John so fully. We have a home, clothes, jobs, friends and family. We get to spend time with all of our families this week. I have Thanksgiving off so we are going to my parents for lunch. Mom has always cooked for lunch on Thanksgiving rather than supper, gives us a chance to sleep the rest of the afternoon ;). Friday we head to John's moms for lunch. She makes an amazing turkey in a crock-pot. Saturday is John's dads Thanksgiving. I work Saturday, but hopefully I will be able to go after work.

I promised John I wouldn't decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving. I haven't ever decorated that early, but for some reason I am really excited about it this year. We cut down our tree on Sunday while we were in the mountains. I think I may put lights on today, just to get ready ;).

John is traveling for work today, to South Carolina. He is supposed to be home tonight, but it will probably be late. I may not like his bosses, but I am thankful he has a job.

I work tomorrow and Saturday this week. Truthfully I'm kinda happy my week is spread out some, I have been getting really tired at work lately. Those 2 pound babies really wear me out! lol Keep my babies and their families in your prayers during the holidays, it's really hard on a family to have loved ones in the hospital during Christmas especially.

And in case I don't say it enough...I love my husband. He is AWESOME! :)

Disappointed...

Have you ever been so disappointed in yourself that you don't know what to do next? That feeling of how could I have screwed up so badly? I know I am an imperfect person. I am not the kindest, happiest, most loving person in the world. I know my faults, and I try to correct them when I realize what I have done. I found out today that I hurt some of my best friends so severely, one decided not to be friends with me anymore.

I always chalked it up to the business of new lives, jobs, husbands, etcs. I never looked at myself as the person to blame. I reached out multiple times, never to get responses. Well I finely got my response, and boy was it hurtful. I found characteristics in myself I would choose to forget. The possibility that I could ruin a friendship, without knowledge, without even a thought of it being my fault...

The person I hurt is a good, Godly person. He/She didn't deserve to be hurt. They have helped me out when I asked or didn't ask for it multiple times. It took 14 months for this person to get over my offense.

When I found this out today, my first reaction was anger. Why didn't they ever approach me with their problem. I realize that I should have been more open to see their hurt, their pain. I wasn't there for this person the way they have always been there for me.

This isn't the first friend I have lost due to my own recklessness. Unfortunately it will probably not be the last. I am so sorry if I have hurt you personally. I pray for guidance, patience, and love for others. Please pray for me...
