Frustrated!

I have more pics to add, but for some reason, all of a sudden, this lovely computer is not allowing me to do that. Sad to say, I am not a computer wiz, so these kind of things frustrate me so very much!
By the way, we were on the Coronado island just off of San Diego. We were put up by the Conklin company that supplies Tim's roofing products. The weather was beautiful, thank the Lord, and we had a wonderful time.

I have returned!

To all concerned, I have returned!!! Life has been rather crazy the past few months. We were very blessed this year and took a trip to California. We had a wonderful time. We also bought a house and moved right before Christmas. I will be posting some pics soon.

Our Babies


I thank God for our darling little girls and their different, but wonderful personalities, and their love of life. I am excited to see them grow into young ladies. Thank-you God for the wonderful privilege of being a Mommy!

Your view of God and His love

What is your view of God? This is something I have been thinking about a lot lately? My view of Him over the years has really been distorted, I believe. Tonight, we had a women's class at church and my pastor's wife was talking about our view of God. In order to see ourselves properly, we must see God properly. When you do something wrong,do you feel His discipline? Do you also feel his love during these times or are you so focused on the correction and the guilt that you can't see his love. I think that I am having a hard time really seeing his love. But it is there, I know it. As a Mommy, I love my babies unconditionally. They could never do anything to change my love for them. When I discipline them it is because I love them, because I want what is best for them. Yet, my love for them is earthly, so uncomparable to God's love for me. To truly grasp His love for me , to see myself as He sees me and to show this same love to others are my greatest desires. I think maybe I have "blithered" a little in this post, but this is on my heart. I would love to read your comments about what I have shared. What is your view of God? Do you know that He loves you just in your head, or does it resound in you heart as well?

Explanation

I suppose I should explain the pig-wrestling post. The object of it all was for your team to be the quickest to catch the pig and then carry it to a barrel in the middle of the mud hole and place it on top and crown it with a hat. The team with the shortest time won a trophy with a "gold" pig on it!!! I know, it totally makes you all want to do it!!!;)
