Fall Happenings

Well alot of water has been rushing under the bridge (not just running actually rushing!). I'm back to doing junior church on Sunday mornings now. Kinda like I used to do before I was married. It's quite different not getting to sit with my hubby in church anymore well for the next two months then I get time off!
I guess one reason why I haven't been on here is I forgot my login info and I've been on Facebook more often than here!
I don't really have time to post everything that has happened in the last few month being that it's been interesting. My husband will be having a surgery on his foot to correct a bone issue that has caused him excruciating pain over the last several years. We just went and had e-xrays and found out what was happening. Although I know God is able to heal him and who knows maybe when they go for the cat scan it'll be healed! I'm trusting God! It's been quite discouraging cuz when it rains it pours! But O well God is still in Control of everything. ( I just need to remember this!)
Well I've got to get back to work, maybe I'll post a bit more later!

Need to catch up on here a bit!

Well it's been over a month since I last posted! I guess you could say I've been too busy! Well actually facebook has taken over! LOL
Well let me see what has happened in the last month....... I've worked......I've cleaned.......we've traveled to Nelsonville and back.........worked some more! O ok. Well My few veggies plants in the front yard are doing very well I'll soon be harvesting tomatoes and peppers! I never did get the rest of my garden in at my friends house just too busy!
This week started Clinton Camp so I've been running back and forth between clinton and McDonald where we live it's only about 15-20 minutes so not that bad of a trip and it's nice to be able to come home at night to our own bed instead of staying in a cabin that always seems to be a halfmile away from the bathroom when ya need it! LOL I love camp! I really do.
Well i suppose that's all for now. Can't think of anything else to write at this second!

Enjoying a day off!

Well today is my last day off now till the weekend so I'm trying to use it wisely in cleaning and laundry! LOL Bud was mowing the lawn and saw a black and yellow snake (YIKES!!!!). I hope it's gone because I need to work in the flower beds as well as get some more garden stuff planted! So much to do!
Yesterday for youth we only had 3 young people plus and Bud and myself but we still had it anyways. If we cancelled for all the times we only had a few the devil would always win! We can't let him do that! We also only had 3 for children's church but we had a good time anyhow! The kids were trying to get out of me later what happens in the continued story of Pilgrim's Progress and I just told them they would have to come back next time! LOL They went Oooooh!
Bud was all excited that the Pittsburgh Penguins won the Stanley cup! They're the only Pittsburgh team he'll root for! And we only live 20 miles from Pittsburgh! LOL
Well just wanted to update on here a bit! We'll be going to help out at a youth camp the end of next week for the weekend. We're gonna get to go canoeing! YAY!!!! Bud is in charge of the youth for the closing weekend of camp! Seems like our summer is filling up so fast with stuff to do. We've got 2 youth get together's this weekend one on Friday one on Saturday. Keeps us hopping! Well I gotta run! TTYL

Encouragement!!!!

Well yesterday was the kick off sunday for Junior Church we're doing a theme on Heaven called the New Jerusalem Tour and had 7 children present and hopefully more to come!

Then for youth we had 10 young people plus the pastor's wife, myself and hubby! We've only been having around 3-4 usually so that was a big encouragment and they all seem excited to get into it and we're planning some youth fun things like a bonfire/singspiration and a table game night and stuff and then at the end of June will be the South Eastern Ohio youth camp in Nelsonville that we may have a few that might go to that so that'll be a new experience!

It's so encouraging to see God move! He's been working in both of our lives and I know especially in mine He's been showing me places where I need to move up and to do better. He's a great big wonderful God!

Musings from the Library!

Well I guess it's been awhile since I updated here don't have much time anymore!

I start doing junior church tomorrow so I've been preparing for that (in between being sick!). I'm doing a theme I did before but I'm enhancing it and hoping it will be better the second time through it's called "NEW JERUSALEM TOUR" it's all about the sites in heaven.

Last weekend we spent at our families cabin back up in the mountains here in PA. It was fun except the pump on the well quit working so we had to haul water from the creek about a half to a mile down the road! It was fun though. We went wading in the creek it was so cold my skin turned red! Although it did feel good because it was hot all weekend. Then on Monday we attended the Reitz family reunion I hadn't been there for 2 years so it nice to see everyone.

Last week Bud was sick for three days and missed work and now I think I've got a touch of it. I've been up and around but not feeling so great! We've been sick so much I think we keep giving it back and forth! Maybe I should start sleeping on the couch! LOL (just kidding!)

Well i guess I better not stay on here too long I have some more visual work to do for junior church tomorrow I just wanted to update a little!

Mother's Day Weekend!

It was good to get away and visit my parents for a few days. We'll be heading back home to PA today and back to work tomorrow. My mom has been trying out some new Taste Of Home recipes and a casserole cookbook I'm gonna have to get it has some delicious looking recipes in it!
My home church in Salem here had good services yesterday Pastor Grabill with God's help does an awesome job!
I also joined face book this weekend and didn't realize how many people I knew that were on there!
Mom and I plan to go garden shopping today. And I'm also to be getting my wedding photos! I'm so excited It's been almost 5 months that we've been married. I guess they've been done for awhile but no one could get a hold of us!
Well that's about all for now I'll update again later. Not much to write!
I will be starting Junior church in a few weeks and our church is in revival with Bro. Joe Smith this week. Hopefully I can make it with mine and Bud's work schedules!

Warm Weather here we come!

Well It's been awhile since I posted on here so guess I better update. It just never seems I have enough time to do everything!

Bud and I were sick with some kind of flu bug this week guess we share and share alike now! We're better now but he was off from work 2 days with it and I was off 1 day (didn't hit me as hard as him!)

My tulips are finally blooming and they're so pretty, I really need to post some pics on here but it'll have to wait till Mother's day weekend I guess!

I'm still working 3 days a week like normal. I have the weekends off well from Friday till Tuesday off. That's like having a mini vacation every week except it's usually filled with housework and errands as well as a piano student on Fridays.

It's to be in the 80's all weekend so we're gonna see how warm our house gets since we don't have air conditioning. We've already turned the furnace off due to low oil so it's been pretty chilly I think it was 50's in there when i got up this morning but we'll be glad for that when it gets to the 80's!

I'm wanting to put in a garden but am not sure where to put it the land that we live on is in a weird shape and there's an open lot next to us that belongs to the golf course which is behind us. So I may just put it at the back corner of our house and if it's on their property they are not using it anyways!

This weekend is the church singspiration at 2 pm it's fun to do. I think we're planning one just for the youth at the end of may we'll have it on a saturday afternoon and then have hot dogs and stuff afterwards. Our friends Eric and Becca usually come too and Bud and I and Eric are going to try to start a group together. I'm sure it will be fun. Bud and I are to sing for a youth get together in May also. We all love music so much.

Well I better scram I've got lots to do today! TTYL
