It's Monday!!!!! And I have BIG news

Good Monday Morning Everyone...........


Well, there is alot going on today....we have Meal Planning Monday with Organize Junkie and Holiday Recipes with Overwhelmed with Joy......so many great things going on with FOOD...one of my favorite words.
We had a great weekend....Saturday Scott worked but we went down to the BBQ on the river and really enjoyed all the great food. I had a chocolate covered frozen banana with peanut butter dipping sauce......my ultimate FAVORITE!!!!!! We had our family pictures made for the Church directory......and Sunday...(this is my BIG news) Madison accepted Jesus Christ into her heart. She will be baptized soon. And I was in the nursery....Yes I missed it...She looked up at her daddy when the preacher opened things up and said...lets go...I'm ready....what a shock....when the Lord speaks to you...he really does even if mommy is in the nursery. The childrens minister came and got me so I made it for the end part......I'm so proud of her. And I know we have done a great job leading her to Christ. As one mom put it....that part of your job is over....now you just have to raise her. Madison is so head strong. And I'm so very proud of her. WOW...what a feeling when you lead your own to Christ.
