Jon's birthday:)








We had a lovely day despite daddy being gone. I didn't want my little Jon's birthday just passing by. It was such a very nice day here and got over 70 degrees! We went out around 11:30 to DQ for my son's birthday meal where we were able to eat outside. You'll see in the pix that I let them eat dessert FIRST since it was a birthday. This NEVER happens in our house.

Next we went to Salvation Army and got some great goodies which I'll post here soon.

On to the mall where they had the cutest play area for Jon to play in. He had so much fun. He played on the slide at least 90 percent of the time.

Next we went to Target to find him some sandals which we didn't find but we did find Lyshie some Easter sandals.

Last but not least, we went to the library. Jon loves all the Veggie Tales movies they have there. There he was able to get a movie he wanted to see and it was a free rental. Yeah!

It's so hard to think that our son is already 3 years old. He is everything we could ask for in a little man. Here's to 3 amazing years with little Jon:)

My Adult Tonsillectomy Story

Post Surgery as soon as I arrived home. For anyone who really knows me, I have always been completely terrified of surgery.  So when I went to an ENT and he said I needed a tonsillectomy I was not very happy.  I found out in either January or February and I couldn't make my appointment till the end of June because that's when my husband could get off work to help out.  I wrote this so I could hopefully help someone going through the same thing.  Without further ado, here goes. Week Before Surgery: This is when I started purchasing everything I had seen online that might be helpful.  I also started setting up an area on the main floor where I could be inclined for sleeping and have everything at my finger tips.  At the bottom of this post I will have a list of items that I personally found helpful for my recovery.  I also have food allergies and tried to stay away from them as much as possible.  So my food options may seem different than ma...

Sex Education For Girls From a Christian Perspective

I'm making out my daughters scholastic plan for the next 6 years.  Crazy...maybe!  Anyway, this coming year she will be entering 7th grade - 7th grade!  I was trying to remember what I took in school during 7th grade.  One of those classes was health/sex ed.  I remember what sex-ed class was like While my parents taught me abstinence, the school was teaching something else as well as exposing us to many contraceptives as well as a lifestyle contradictive to what my parents were trying to teach at home.  I heard this from the class and students much more because that's the environment I was in. My goal here is to still be vigilant on teaching my children health education/sex education from a biblical perspective.  Coming into puberty is something that we are going to celebrate in this family.  It means that our son/daughter is making the shift into adulthood.  We want our children to be prepared for what's coming.  For instance, after r...

I often see facebook posts of people looking for good, wholesome movies to watch with their spouse or their family.  Because of that,  I thought I'd make a list of netflix movies that our family has enjoyed, found educational, etc...  If you have some you think I should add to this list, leave me a comment.  I'll be updating periodically. Here goes!! Family Movies: The Hiding Place *The Last Sin Eater The Ultimate Gift *The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry Flywheel *Saving Sarah Cain Letters to God - this is a tear gripper!
