Getting ready for Winter...

Well it is that time of the year to start really thinking about the winter season. Today I went grocery shopping for what I am going to need over the next few days as my Mom and I get to cooking . My sweet Mom is here for a about a week to hang out with her great grandbaby ( my punkin munchkin ). While she is here I figured why not get her to help me with doing some cooking to get the freezers filled up .... I asked and she said YES!! lol I knew she would !

We are going to make soup, chili, bell pepper casserole, meatloaf's , I can not wait to get our cook on !!
I will try to get pics and post them but my Mom is very camera shy if she thinks it may end up on the internet.

One thing we are trying thanks to a tip from my caterer cousin Carmen is to use a roast instead of stew meat and just cut it up myself ... much cheaper and I get a better quality meat .

Well I am going to get to bed because we are cooking the soup tomorrow and it will be an all day slow cooking affair.

Have a blessed evening and may God bless you !!

1st day of homeschooling tomorrow !!

 

       Well my first day of homeschooling my granddaughter begins in the morning . Kindergarten here we come ... ohhh nooo !! I will be coming up We with my own lesson plans for the first 6 weeks and then she will be starting K-12 . We will be having a two week break in between because she is going to Walt Disney World in FL. I am thinking of some homework to send with her while she is there ...any ideas appreciated ! I thought maybe something like getting a pic of  something that represents each letter of  her name or the alphabet.

My plan is to do the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a prayer every morning ( one good thing about homeschooling). My daughter wants her to have a bible class at least a couple times a week. I am going to use bible scriptures for her memory verse everyday .

While teaching my Punkin , I am running a bait & produce shop , trying to get a freelance photography business going & just got going on an internet advertisement biz. Oh and keeping the books for my Dad 's personal accounts and his Bait & Produce business ( the one I run) .... as well as my Teddybear's trucking stuff !! I help my daughter some to because she is a full time college student + full time working + full time mom = full time stress !

I love my life so much and I have come a long way from the hell I was in last year when my world fell apart. My life , my love and all my praise goes to my Father in Heaven.

Looking forward to what I will be learning this year and I am excited to see what blessings God has laid out on my life's journey road .... come along with me and together we will Trust in Him to take us through !!!

May God Bless You !


Memory verse for Monday...... 1 John 4:7  Love is from God.

Mom come to town ......WHAT A TREAT !!!!

We had a wonderful visit with my mom this past weekend ..... she had to come for a visit because it had been 3 weeks since she had seen her KaDee..hehehe!!!! It was sad though this was the first time we had been to the zoo since mom and my niece and nephew had come down back in the spring for there spring break and Trevor went to the zoo with us....I was doing good til I got to the place where we took a lot of pics and where Trevor convinced me to let him take my picture ...he was so stoked he finally had got his hands on my camera ...I got pretty teary and so did Krysta ....I think my mom got upset but she just talked faster {{ this is what she does when she gets a lil upset or nervous about something}}......KaDee was happy she got to get an aldigator aka alligator ...stuffed of course ....lol!!!! My lil punkin loves alligators not really sure why ?!?!?!!!! It was a nice day at the zoo to see the ALLIGATORS and all the other animals !!!!!





I got more mail today for Trevor he is getting college information , i guess since he would have been a junior this year and he had used our address for something so now we are getting stuff from different colleges and scholarship / loan organizations. I miss him !!!!
