Well I can definitely say that is has been a long while since I have done any blogging and part of that is due to my life getting too busy... shame on me! Anyways a lot of things has happened since February and some of them I will let you in on.

The kids have made it out of school and was ever so ready for summer break. They all passed and Kyle will now be in 10th grade, Kris in 6th and Katie in 4th. Where does the time go??? Oh before I forget to mention, Kyle is now driving!!! Yes I said driving. I am not even sure if the shock of it all has worn off but my darling little boy isn't so little anymore and that really makes me sad! He will be 16 in less than 2 months and how I wish that I could stop time or slow it down... knowing that I can't makes me even sadder. I think all of you parents can understand where I am coming from? Right now Kyle is at camp in Alabama with my sister in law and niece and nephew.

This coming Friday, July 4th we are headed back up the mountain to get ready for our yearly church camp meeting aka Blue Ridge Camp. Last year was my first time there and I can say that I wouldn't miss it for anything! My kids have so much fun as so do we adults, but I am really looking forward to just going to the services and being fed! I want to come down off that mountain and know that I allowed God to work in my life in such a way that I am forever changed for the better and that I will better know what God's purpose for me is! To many this might seem odd, but as I look at this world and the sin and sadness that is all around, I am reminded that I was once there and that I don't have to live there anymore and if I might stumble and fall that Jesus has never even once left my side... I just have to reach out and take hold of His Amazing Grace! So many times I have gotten caught up in my own life and have allowed it to become so busy that I loose sight of where I need to be... but I want to stay on track and make sure that I keep Christ the center of my life... and when I do I will never go wrong! Philippians 4:13 has been really revealed to me here in the past few days and I have found that to be true. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I want that to be a constant reminder when I am at a low and when satan seems to be working his hardest. I pray that you will pray for me and my family as we will do our best to remember you all! Have a Blessed day!
I will try to do better with posting and updating my blog!
P.S. I will update with new pics at a later time
