Back into the swing of things!

I have been in a funk with my blog and I am going to get back to doing it so that means not as much Facebook! AHHH! I love having this blog so I need to keep it up. To start things back up, I am going to share some things that I cannot live without or things I really love!



First of all, I love FACEBOOK! I have reconnected with old friends I have not seen in over 15 years! It has been so great to see where life has taken everyone. If you have not signed up, you should! It's AWESOME!

Something we CANNOT live without in our house is AllyZabba blankets!

Both girls have their blankies and they are very much loved. The one shown is the one Emmy has. Go to http://www.allyzabba.com/ and check them out! We also have the MegaZabba's which are awesome! FYI: the girl who makes them is an old friend from California. She is fabulous!

Another thing I discovered a while back is http://www.etsy.com/ !!

I am sure most of you have heard of it but I love it! If you haven't you need to check it out! This is a site strictly for those who handmake things.... anything....from jewelry to baby items, clothing, etc. I have purchased a few things off of it and it is a great thing!

I am truly blessed to be invovled with MOPS! (Mothers of Pre-Schoolers)

I go approxiamtely every other week and I look forward to it every time. It is a place where I don't have to hide that I am having an awful week because other moms are probably going through the same thing. We eat breakfast, listen to wonderful speakers, make fun crafts and we are able to build friendships we probably would not have made otherwise. I feel revived when I get to go!

I know I have shared this one before but I have to mention it again. It is my handy dandy Dirt Devil Broom Vac!

This Broom Vac has saved me soooo much time sweeping. I got it as a gift exchange gift at Christmas! I think I scored with this!!

We left our church in Lee's Summit during the summer last year and began our search for a new one. The drive was getting too much for us with the gas prices and with a new baby it made it hard to be involved like we wanted too. We ended up visiting a church with our friends and it has become our home church. Lenexa Baptist Church is unlike a lot of churches we have been involved in in the years past. Our pastor does not sugar coat things...he tells it like it is! Black and White! His heart is for his church family. We are getting involved and the kids are really enjoying it. I am in a women's bible study on Tuesdays. We are studying Beth Moore's, ESTHER. It has been amazing studying from this book. I am also involved in MOPS like I shared before. I help out with the babies one Sunday a month and we also are in a class on Sunday nights called Equipping U. Also, Sheldon is going to start ushering every Sunday in a week. We will be in our new sanctuary starting March 1 and we are excited. And, yes, I do sing in the choir and I love it! It is like no other choir I have sang with! We are so blessed to be at this church and look forward to serving many more years with the people at this church. http://www.lenexabaptist.com/

I think this is where I will end things. I could share and share but maybe I will add more at another time. Thanks for reading!!
