Threads of Gratitude: The Tie that Binds Edition

After the retreat last weekend, I’m on a high.  A huge, happy, overwhelmed high.  So many wonderful memories, so many new friends, so many happy moments that have bonded me to my sisters in Christ.  I’m so excited about the opportunity to get to know these women better over the coming months, and to build… Continue reading Threads of Gratitude: The Tie that Binds Edition

Is that a pig flying?

We interrupt your normally scheduled Wednesday American Idol prediction post to bring you this important message: THE TEXAS RANGERS ARE IN FIRST PLACE IN THE AMERICAN LEAGUE WEST. I’m in shock.   Utter disbelief.  Completely and totally incredulous. And either a cold front has moved through hell or I just saw a pig flying outside my… Continue reading Is that a pig flying?

Introducing…

This was sent to me awhile back, but I kind of shelved it for one of “those” days. Today is that day. I love this video.  It gives me goosebumps.  Just try to watch it without jumping to your feet and cheering! [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvCd_ANIKys[/youtube] That’s MY Jesus!

Overwhelmed!

Today I embark on a new journey – my first ever women’s retreat with McKinney Fellowship! I have heard from our life group that these retreats are not-to-be-missed.  They are amazing.  You laugh, you cry, you create memories and legends that live long after the retreat is over.  I am really looking forward to this,… Continue reading Overwhelmed!
