Sickness, Soccer, Springtime....

.....and the number Six!!!

Just to share a bit of what's going on in my neck of the woods....

Our  GRANDsons have both been pretty puny.  Little brother had walking pneumonia, then his big brother had an ear infection and yesterday they were both coughing their little heads off.  This was the first time that Pappy and Nannie took them to the doctor, on our own, 'cause Momma had an appointment she needed to keep!!!  
And, now....their Momma is sick, too....and Nannie isn't feeling so hot!!!
 :'(

Speaking of GRANDsons....the boys are both playing Upward soccer.  If y'all know much about the Upward program, you know that it's CHRISTian based.  Those little kiddos are adorable trying to kick the ball from one end of the playing field to the other without using their hands.  What truly touched my heart, besides the fact that our GRANDson was the best player (of course Nannie is going to think that, right?!?!)....is how our son-in-law got down on his knees and talked about Jesus with those little souls!!!  Pappy and I are so very blessed to have such a wonderful "son"!!!

It's SPRINGtime!!!  
Other than having to shave my legs....


 

....I'm loving this weather!!!
We've spent lots of time outdoors this week...burning and raking and digging and planting....and taking lots of ibuprofen!!!

And....springtime brings EASTER....the most important "holiday" in the life of a CHRISTian....because....HE AROSE!!!

(we hung out our Easter flag)

Finally....the number SIX!!!

Several of you have asked about the status of the adoption of our new GRANDbabies!!  
Our daughter and son-in-law are now #6 on the list!!!
It's a "hurry up and wait" situation!!!

We don't know "when"....but we do know it will be in HIS time!!!

Sweet blessings to each of you!!!

In HIS Most Precious Love....and with mine!!!

Frivial Friday!!!

Do you like my new word...."frivial"?
It's a cross between "trivia" and "frivolous"....hence, FRIVIAL!!!
Hey, Miriam-Webster, whatcha think.....can I get credit?!?!?

Anyway....here are a few frivial things that made up my week.....

 If you follow me at Wise Old Owl Designs, or on Facebook, 
you'll recognize this scarf....

I've made 3 of them so far....and after I posted it, I got another order!!!
Pappy lost his job....and Wise Old Owl Designs gets more orders....
.....ain't GOD AWESOME?!?!?







 I took my Mom for her coumadin check....she's doing better.....and doesn't have to go  back for 3 weeks this time.  That's the longest between checks that the coumadin nurse has allowed her to go....major improvement.  It's still a little on the "thick" side, but heading more towards normal.  While at the hospital, we happened to peek thru a couple of double doors and saw that there was a display of jewelry set up in the lobby.  Would you look at what my Momma bought me.....

I wish you could see how truly beautiful it is....all blingy and girly!!!
I put the earrings in as soon as we got back to the car!!!





   It was around SEVENTY-FIVE degrees here yesterday!!!
I did a few little fix-ups for my Mom and actually broke a sweat!!!





 The warm temps made me just want to do something springy....so I dug out the wreath I made last year.  It was just what my front door needed....

Our boys are coming to spend the night with us....it's been a few weeks since they've spent the night and Pappy and I feel we've rested up enough to try it again!!!
ha! ha!


We're so looking forward to it....they are so much fun!!!

Last, but not least, I have a  blog called Twenty-Twelve in Pictures.
I've made that blog private for some personal reasons, 
but if any of you who frequent Jeremiah 29:11 would like to be added, just let me know!!!

Hope all of you have a great weekend!!!
