Movie Monday - The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas

I give this movie 4 Stars Story line:  Set during World War II, a story seen through the innocent eyes of Bruno, the eight-year-old son of the commandant at a concentration camp, whose forbidden friendship with a Jewish boy on the other side of the camp fence has startling and unexpected consequences. This movie was very interesting to me. On the one hand I really liked it although...

God is Love

       As a new Christian I have had to be more creative in learning to give myself to the lord, giving him my problems so he can bare my stresses and make me free. “Don’t worry about anything” Phil 4:6 Everyone keeps telling me to give it to the lord. But I don’t know how to do that. So being the crafter that I am I have created a box. So I can write down my troubles,...

Bible Study and a Good deed

So on Monday I went to my first bible study session. I am not going to lie I was super nervous and about an hour before my stomach was aching. I am not sure why but the butterflies were going crazy!!

Do not read on an empty stomach

Last night I went to a Chocolate Extravaganza!  My Church’s Women's Ministries held a fundraiser for women in Haiti. Most people baked things or bought stuff to sell at the auction, it was amazing to see how creative people can be when it comes to chocolate. They raised almost $300, isn’t that amazing!!! As soon as I found out that I was going to go, I grabbed my camera headed out the door....

Movie Monday - The Vow

I give this Movie 5 Stars. This movie is based on a True Story. Story Line:   A car accident puts Paige in a coma, and when she wakes up with severe memory loss, her husband Leo works to win her heart again. This movie could not have had a better cast, Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum work perfect together. The chemistry that these too have in this movie is simply amazing and very...

Who am I to be giving advice?

Do I have the right to tell someone to do something if I don’t know the back story? I met with my friend today; we haven’t seen each other in awhile. In passing, saying hello, but nothing more than that. She asked me the other day if I wanted to hang out and of course I said yes. I have been hearing through the ‘grape vine’ that she really hasn’t been in a good place lately. And I wanted to get...

I finally did it!

I finally put my hand out and you know what happened…I was grabbed and embraced. I finally took the plunge that I have needed for some time now, I went to church. This may sound silly to some people but I have recently, with some help from blogger friends, have decided to accept Christ into my heart. I didn’t grow up with anything remotely close to religion in my life, so when I told my hubby...

With health on the mind

Good Sunday everyone! I hope everyone had a good week! This week has been full of choices for me. Some more complicated than others. One thing that Skylar and I have been trying to work on is our health. It is very important and we need to start making it a priority in our lives. We always used to say to eat healthy is too expensive so we put up that wall and never aloud out selves to think...
