Joyful Expressions

My brother, SIL & niece are here!!!! It's taken the past few days for them to get things basically settled here in the house. They plan to be here in this house for about 6m- 1year....that was OUR plan three years ago. Having them brings our numbers up to ten in a four bedroom, 1.5 bath house. So please pray for smooth sailing!!!! I can truly say that living here with my parents & youngest brother has been SO much better than I thought it could be! And I hope this endeavor is just as sucessful. PS- We're in the process of adding an additional bedroom. With plans for another bed & bath. We'll see.


Justus has had a stomach bug yet again. I'm thinking he must have a sensitive stomach b/c I don't remember being sick like that when I was younger & I grew up as one of four so when one got sick we all did. Anyways it past quickly & tommorrow he will be at full speed ahead!!!!

I want to see the new movie Becoming Jane, I really like her work so I think I'd like this movie.

The other day I heard a new muscian that I enjoy, well new to me anyways. He is a bit like Jeremy Camp so if you like him you may like this guy. His name is Aaron Shust. Anyone heard of him???

Back to school sales are going on and this weekend is the tax free weekend....of course it's an off payweek...good thing our kids aren't in school yet or I'd be even more dissappointed. I'm a bit like Staci, I LOVE office supplies, even when I don't know what I'll do with them (stack probably knows just how she'd use them).

We got two new tires put on the car which is GREAT since you could see cord showing. Guess who payed for them??? GOD!!!!!!! Seriously someone gave us money randomly & we had just enough buy them!!!!! THANKS LORD!!!!!!

So much more to say but as usually I've forgotten the minute I have time to type.
