FOR TODAY - March 30, 2009

Outside my window...beautiful sunny day, after having high winds last night.

I am thinking...about a friend that is so concerned for her job.

I am thankful for...health, family, friends, & my husband having a good job.

From the learning rooms...learning about all the settings & features on my new digital camera that hubby surprised me with last Friday!

From the kitchen...on the menu tonight - spaghetti, salad, cheesy garlic bread, & simply cookies for dessert.

I am wearing...blue pants & read top.

I am creating...trying my hand at making blogger themes from my digital scrapbooking collection. They turned out great, but decided to stick with this new one.

I am going...to enjoy a relaxing evening in with my family, & 'really' take it all in, gathering up every sweet memory that I can store.

I am reading...Managing Your Moods for my Bible study, Bible, magazines.

I am hoping...my son finds another job very soon.

I am hearing...cars going by on the street, keys tapping, clock chiming, & no chatter of Elliot & Emily, as they are napping.

Around the house...everything is caught up. Just the way I love starting a Monday.

One of my favorite things...this quiet time of the afternoon when the kids are napping. I settle in with a cup of tea & have some 'me' time each day.

A few plans for the rest of the week...Emily & my nightly 'girls' walk, while Mike spends special time with Elliot. I treasure the talks we have each evening, & the smiles she gives me as we walk. I also want to create some graphics, spend time outside each day with Elliot & Emily, & create good food & good memories for my family.

Here is a picture thought I am sharing...Emily, singing along with American Idol. She runs to get her micophone as soon as she knows it's coming on.

  8. This new look is so pretty. Actually someone from this site visited me and recommended this new site to me. I just don't have time to do a update right now. Love reading your about your days.
    Since I am a week late getting here, I hope you and Mike are having fun with the kids on your little getaway. Hugs!
