New recipe I tried, or want to try this week::::

Homemaking Tip::::
I don't have one this week.


Visiting with Blog friends (blog you want to share, blog post that caught your eye)::::
I just started going back and rereading my old blogs.  It's interesting to see what life was like back when we only had 1 child. 

Praying for::::
The family and close friends of a friend of mine from highschool who lost her battle with cancer.
My husband as he travels this week. 
Myself to keep my sanity as we settle into our new schedule with school, dance, soccer, etc.


Bible Verse, Devotional that is resonating with me at the moment::::
What, then, shall we say in response to this?  If God is for us, who can be against us? ~ Romans 8:31

Some days, when everything is stressful, and I feel that the world isn't on my side, I just need to hear that.

I have both of those cookbooks and love them. Trisha Yearwood has amazing recipes and so does the Amish one :)

Love the picture of the horse, so cute.

I hope you have a really good week and that Ben is still enjoying his first few days of school in first grade :)
