cvs this week!!!

The first trip I made to Cvs as pictured above, I got $214.56 for $34.04 out of pocket and got back $35.00 in Ecbs. The second trip I got $122.45 for $2.90 out of pocket and got back $16.99 in Ecbs. I am finally catching on and it so fun. My husband is in amazement over all the good deals I am getting. I got make-up in the second trip it was marked down 75% off plus I had a coupon. I got it for grandma because it looked like her skin color, so I called her today to tell her and she said she was out and she had been praying for God to help her find a good deal. It is amazing how God always supplies our needs if we trust in him. I had no idea she needed make-up and that was the only color marked down in that particular brand and kind of make-up. I hope you get encouraged by this post. For all of you coupon shoppers that live near an Ingles next week they are tripling their coupons up to $.50.

I am finally an Aunt!!! Welcome Ethan James in the world on January 3, 2007.

My sister had her baby Thursday. He was 5 weeks early. She called me at 7:30 that morning and said she was pouring blood. We went to the hospital and she was in labor. After 10 hours of labor Ethan was born at 5:08 pm weighing 4lbs 14.4 ounces and 18.5 inches long. I got to see him be born and that was the most amazing experiences I have ever seen. I was in so much pain when I had my children I don't remember much. He is doing well and should get to come home today.

I am not a Feminist at all!!!

You Are 0% Feminist

You are definitely not a feminist. In fact, you are every feminist's worst nightmare. You believe that women belong in the kitchen.... barefoot and pregnant.

Are You a Feminist?

Wow that is crazy, but I agree I am against feminism in all areas.

It has been so busy lately!!!!

As always the month of December is so busy. We had so much to do from shopping, cooking, cleaning and of course spending time with family. We had a wonderful Christmas and 3 whole days spent with my husband without him having to work. Which reminds me there is a chance that he will get a promotion and we may have to move out of state. That will be difficult since I have lived in Georgia all my life. Well I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. May God bless everyone.

God had his hand on us!!!!

I just want to share that last Friday the kids and I were own our way the the grocery store driving down the road and for some reason I looked down at the speedometer and as I looked up there was a car in front of us stopped. I came inches of hitting this car but swerved off the side of the road and made it around the car. As I drove by the place today, I do not see how we came out of that without being in an accident, but I do know God had his angels protecting us. The place where we swerved was nothing more than a foot of flat land and then a steep cliff. Thank you God for your protection and covering over my children and I.

Struggle

The past few weeks have been so hard and this song is such a blessing.

Getting ready for Thanksgiving!!!

As everyone is getting ready for Thanksgiving, I hope you remember and are grateful for what you have. There is a family in my church who one year ago lost there 4 year old daughter to kidney failure. It was exactly one year today that I was hospitalized, because my fallopian tube busted and I was internally bleeding. I almost died on the table but God gave me another chance at last. Yesterday my cousin's son Nathaniel would have been 8 but he passed away unexpectedly on May 9, 2001 at the young age of 18 months. It was the worse day of mine and my families life. I got to watch that sweet boy enter the world. He was 8 weeks early and weighed 4 pounds and 9 ounces and was 16 inches long. He was doing so well but his immune system was weak and he got any kind of virus that went around. He seemed so healthy the few weeks before it happened in fact 2 weeks earlier at a family Easter gathering he was running around without having an asthma attack. But we know he is in heaven and probably playing with my 3 babies up there.
The good news though is Nathaniel's mommy(Felicia) found out she was pregnant yesterday. She has Austin(11) and after Nathaniel was born Her husband got a vasectomy. She got a divorce because her ex husband was physically and emotionally abusive. Now she is happily remarried to a very nice Christian man and treats her like a queen. I am so happy for her and I hope that things will work out.
On another note my dear sweet husband is helping me cook. We are doing 2 turkeys this year. He is the best. Today I cooked lentil soup which I got from Sara Snow. It was delicious and the kids loved it!!! I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!!!! (This is the Christmas picture from last year. I will post the new one once it is taken).

My sweet Hannah

My Hannah is 8 and she wants to be a gospel singer.

Cleaning out clutter!!!

I have been so busy cleaning out clutter. My basement is horrific. There is so much stuff in this house it is ridiculous. We are having a yard sale tomorrow and I would love to get rid of 75% of our stuff. Some of you may think that is a lot but if you only seen how much we had, you would agree. Plus we need the extra cash for Christmas. Well I hope everyone has a great weekend.
