A'nons (annonymous that is)

I vist other blogs quite often, some I enjoy visiting every day...new pictures of sweet family members, thoughtful prayers and the list goes on and on. Up until recently, I hardly ever checked my sitemeter. I didn't realize you could see all of the "lurkers" if you will and where they are from. It really doesn't bother me who's looking or who's reading as long as your nice and well, not out to harm anyone. So, I'm going to start getting better at leaving comments even if it's just a "hello". Ok, enough about that.

You know it's amazing at what you learn from other blogs: new things to try, new ways to decorate, new recipes to try and so on and so on. What a way to connect, I must say.

So from here
I tried this
and boy is it dee lish.

From this blog
I read this awesome awesome quote which I just love:
Elder Dennis B. Neuenschwander that said:
"Whatever happens in the life of a person, if his attitude is right, the Lord will work that experience for that person's good."
Oh and by the way, a beautiful story about an adorable little baby girl.

Also, here I discovered a new way of looking at peace.

and here how GOD is working HIS miracle in this family.

I learn so much about so many things, and for you, I am thankful.

Plano Balloon Festival

Yesterday, I volunteered at the annual balloon festival. The company I work for does A LOT of volunteering throughout the community, well actually worldwide, but for me, right here at home. For a few hours of my time, in return, I get a free three day pass, free three day parking pass and all the fun you could ask for. Can you believe that you can take off in one of these for $250.00. Not sure how long the ride would be.

Usually the balloons launch at sunrise, but didn't yesterday for some reason. They waited until evening to launch oh about 15/20 balloons. We would've stayed but I was oh so ready to get outta there. The crowds were overwhelming. But I did manage to snap a picture of one that was taking off as we were leaving.


Josh just looks so thrilled to be there...doesn't he? He was ready to go about this time as well.


Maybe next year I will get better shots of all balloons.

ACORN--are you serious?

I typically don't discuss politics here....BUT one can't help to think what is happening to our country and what will our children's' generation have left..if anything.

Our government is so corrupt and it's nothing new. Have you heard the latest?

ACORN...if you haven't...google it. It's sad...just plain sad.

I couldn't have said this better myself

"Do you really want to hand over your health care and your lives to a government that funds an organization like ACORN?????? "

Hope you have a great week~~
