HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Today is Thanksgiving and I want to tell you HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!! I have been doing a lot of thinking this week about things to be thankful for exc. and you know what? I have a TON to be thankful for and sometimes I just take it for granite. Here is a few things on my list… Family, House, Food, and most importantly Jesus!! I hope you have a thankful day and enjoy time with family and friends!!!

An Update…

Ok, I haven’t posted in a while I know, and I feel bad about it but it truly isn’t my fault! In all the silence a lot has happened here in the loony bin, so before the”Real Post” I thought I would give you a quick update!! Soccer has been keeping us on our toes and I believe we are all thankful for this week of rest, Though I do have practice tomorrow. On the down side all the littles have had this stupid sinus bug this week but they are close to health again!!! Yesterday I was able to bake hello-dollies, cookies shaped like turkeys, a loaf of bread,  and 24 rolls!! I was very proud of myself!! Now, You may be wondering why in the world am I making all this food?? The reason being today is Thanksgiving!!! More on that later. Anyway… What was I saying again? Oh yeah, and update…Well, I had one of my little girls party’s last week and they made 30 cards that they are going to hand out when we go christmas caroling!!! They did a GREAT job, and I just want to tell them so myself! Last Christmas I did a Missy Camp but this year is really busy so I am going to be holding off on the camp and do it in Jan.  BUT, I was thinking about maybe doing a day-camp where they come for a morning from 9-12 and it would only be 5 dollars a kid!!!! That way the parents could have the morning to christmas shop or wrap gifts or whatever they want to do without there kids around!!

Oh, The Weather Outside is Frightful and My Dear It’s SO Delightful!

Wow, This weather is so nice!!! It is refreshing the only thing is it came all of a sudden! I can’t believe yesterday I was sweating and today I’m freezing. Don’t get me wrong though I love it!!!! It has been over cast most of the day so that makes it cooler, that is the one thing I don’t like though is drowsy days. It makes you just want to lay down and take a nap. I don’t take naps though unless I am sick or super tired. Anyway…Tonight I have a soccer game at our home turf I really hope we do good. I don’t want to lose or worse get our butts kicked at our home field. So if you think about it please pray for me.

 

My Thoughts

I got to thinking today about my game last night. BTW… We tied 0-0. I had some feed back given to me and they said that I looked tired and that I need to work on sprinting more. Which is probably true. What I am getting at here is even If I am tired I need to continue to work hard and not slack off for my team and so I don’t look like a fool.  So what I was thinking to-day is doesn’t God say to bring everything to him??? I thought of a bible verse that I am going to try to say every time I need to step it up… Here it is “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

Soccer Update

 In the last post I noted (ok, I wrote a whole post about it)that I was going to be training for soccer. So, I thought I would give you a little up date on how that is going so far…1st off I ran a rough mile yesterday in 5 min. and 30 sec. I was so excited!! Now, I am going to have to run that again and see what my time is, but that is still good for my first time! I also have 3 soccer games this week one today, tomorrow, and Thursday. the first 2 are away but Thursdays is home!! I hope we do good tonight!!  I will keep you posted on how we are doing and how soccer is going!!!   

My Soccer Goals

Okay, as many of you already know I am playing soccer so this Thursday after my game I decided that I was going to step it up a notch and work extra hard. Not that I have been slacking I just want to improve even more and push myself to the best of my ability. So what are the steps I am going to take to improve? For starters I am going to go outside everyday and practice shooting on goal, dribbling and some of the little “tricks” you can use in soccer. By “tricks” I mean special foot work that you do with the ball. My next step is to start working out…Now for those of you who know me, know that I’m not very big. I am not trying to be huge I just want to build the muscle I have and be stronger! I also want to run a mile everyday well all of my off days that is, and I want to work up to be able to run 3 miles strait. One of my goals is to be able to run 3 miles in less 23 min. I know, I know that is a really big goal but that is what I am going to do.

Soccer

OK, So Soccer has started and my 1st game was last night! We lost 2-0 but they scored in the last 10 min of the game. I started and played the whole game ecxept for the last ten min of the game! I am also Captain as a freshman!!! I am so excited! We have a game tomorrow…

Baking…

Well, I spent my morning baking cookies and brownies! I have about I think 8 dozon! Why you ask??? Because tonight we are having something for the boys soccer team. Sorry there isn’t a long post right now!

Mouths

Mouths, can’t live with them and can’t live without them. Have you ever stopped to think about your mouth? How much trouble it gets you in? How it can build people up and then tear people down? I have been thinking a lot about mouths and how much control we have over them, and yet, we never seem to stop talking when we really need too. If our mouths get us in so much trouble then why did God give us them in the first place? I decided to do some research on mouths and this is what I got in the Websters dictionary…There was a whole section on mouths but what they were basically all say is this…A place where you speak and food is taken in. I believe that God had a much bigger purpose for our mouths though. So I looked it up in the bible but I looked under tongue and there are hundreds of verses about your mouth and words. James chapter 3 is a very good chapter to look in if you have trouble holding your tongue. I guess what I am getting at here is God gave us mouths to be positive to one another, to lift each other up. But most importantly to spread the good news about Jesus!! Are you doing that in your daily walk?? If not ask God to give you someone to talk to about God!
