Lotto Numbers

Here they are - 66, 30, 820, 199, 730, 35!  No, those numbers aren't my lotto numbers, they're simply all the highways I drove on yesterday to go see my sweet new 4th cousin Claire!  Meeting her & seeing my family was worth it!  It took me basically 3 hours round trip - I only tell you that to say how much thinking time it gave me (I was alone mind you).  I didn't solve anything major like world hunger, but just had uninterrupted time to pray for family & friends, ponder on things, praise God while listening to the Message on Sirius, etc.  I started my day by seeing a sweet friend and meeting her week old son, was able to meet Claire, stop for a late lunch at Don Pablos (I'm seriously in love with that place), then came home to spend time with my family & help Chris finish revamping my old childhood vanity for the girls! Wow, what a packed day, but SO fabulous!

Speaking of Chris slaving away on my project for him...here is a photo of my vanity!  I'm sure I have a photo somewhere of the vanity before & if I ever find it, I will certainly post it!  It turned out so beautiful & will look precious in the girls' room!  We have a ton of paint left & I do believe this is the color I will paint my scrapbooking room (whenever if gets cleaned out).  It's really neat to see them use something of mine - the dresser they have is mine from my 1st bedroom set as a child also (painted more girly of course & without the brass knobs).  Crafty doesn't have to mean expensive or getting rid of the old for sure!



We had communion today at church with a wonderful message to remind us of the sacrifice Jesus made for us - His body was broken & His blood was shed.  For me, for my sins.  It still amazes me to think about God sacrificing His only son for all of us!  I'm so humbled & thankful that God loves me that much...that Jesus loved me that much.  WOW!  Such a great reminder!

Tonight we get to gather with my family for dinner & fellowship.  We are truly blessed to have some family near us!  I hope all of you are enjoyed a weekend with family & time with our Lord!  Until next time, remember to listen for the Giggles from Heaven!
