Chip in if you can :)

I was reading a blog the other day that had some really yummy looking spaghetti and meatballs on it (Christine Reed's, smiles and trials) and anyway, Julia Nalle who is in 'my special country' now with her husband

was saying how much she would love to have spaghetti and meatballs, it's the one dish she has missed the most!They have had quite a time of it and you know what I mean if you follow their blog http://www.covenantbuilders.blogspot.com/ and anyway, Julia was saying how much she misses real food because all they get in the little village is soup, soup and more soup :)

They are adopting this sweet boy(above) and have 2 boys waiting for them at home.

So, wouldn't it be a nice thing if we could chip in, even a little bit, and send them out to a nice family dinner together when they get home?!

They've had a tough road to walk with this adoption, and they walked it with grace and faith. And now Aaron has a family instead of a life in a mental institution.

So, if you can....please do :) :) :)

Time to come out of the cave??

I always said I'd never do Facebook.

I didn't even want to do a blog.

I don't have TIME for Facebook...ok, I don't really know what it is to be EXACT...but it looks complicated.

Lots of stuff on there.

Feeling obligated to respond to people (right??) and having to post pictures and KEEP UP...(right??)

I don't know.

Lately, I've been thinking that there are 'things' going on out there in Facebook world that I'm missing out on.

I mean, doesn't EVERYONE have one these days??

I'm out of the loop

Sometimes I like it that way.

But sometimes I don't :) :)

So, I'm thinking about it.

What do YOU think???

a movie review

Letters to Juliet... This is a good movie. I took a break from the Waltons (shocking, I know).....to watch this last night. It's a good, clean, romantic love story. And I especially loved the beautiful scenery in this movie.

A good show to watch with your teenage daughters as well.

I love a good love story :)

September 11th

I love America.

Remembering the heroes that were created that day....

Praying for their loved ones who have to live on without them.

Look at this little sweetheart.....

She needs a family....OH MY GOODNESS IS SHE SWEET!

I could SO see her in our family :)

What a doll.
