Vote.

A week from now, we will be a short time away from finding out who the next President of the United States of America will be. I know the Lord's will, will be accomplished. This world is coming to an end in short order, and what's meant to be will be. I will be voting for McCain-Palin. Though I have seen quite a bit of fun being poked at Palin, to me she seems a fresh face who just needs some more PR experience. All of this is sort of over my head, but I really want McCain to win. I feel safer with him. Plus, they support the "big" issues I am for. I hope and pray they win, but know whatever is meant to be in this late hour before the Lord's return, will happen. So, go VOTE!

First things first

Happy Birthday to my wonderful Nephew, Michael Stephens. I love you and hope you have an amazing birthday!!!

Secondly, Happy Birthday to my awesome Cousin, Troy!!! I love you and hope today is one of the best birthdays ever!!!

Lastly....I got a new hair cut last night. I got a lot more layers added, but i like them. They aren't heavy layers, but fairly light and flowy. And my bangs are finally growing out, as is the zit on my nose, finally going away!

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

I have two loaves a mini bowl baking in the oven. I am giving the two loaves away to neighbors, and the mini bowl (I didn't find a tiny loaf pan) is for me to make sure its okay first, without ruining the loaves. I didn't have enough banana's...:(...I thought that two would be okay, but they turned out to be TOOOOO ripe. So I only have 4 bananas, the recipe called for 6. And, I used a different kind of flower. I think its stone ground whole wheat or something. I don't know.

Also, I got my front and back yard mowed. WOOHOO! Thank the Lord!! I didn't know if I would have enough time, because it starts to get dusk around 7:15. I still need to trim the back yard, and prune the trees and bushes. But its a start.

Well, have a good night!

Pictures!!

My door! and...that cat isn't mine...it's the neighbors.

Red,Red,Red!!

I am painting my front door red! Woohoo! Pictures will follow when it is completed. As it is outdoors, it is oil based, thus taking a bit longer to dry.But, so far I am pleased with the color. I didnt want something too burgandy-ish, nor something to orangey. I guess if you have seen my couches in person, which most haven't it is fairly close to that. Kind of a ruby red, bright but not orange and definiately not burgandy. I only haveone coat on it at this point, so we will see if i like the finished product. :)

October 15th

Is the day my friend will give birth to her very first child. Please be in prayer for my friend Erin tomorrow as she goes into a C section around 8am MST. They have waited to find out the sex of the baby until the birth, which I think is so neat. I rodeoed with this girl, well we were rodeo queens at the same time, and since then she is one of the few I have remained in contact with. She has been a great friend, and I am so happy for her and her hubby. I have known him a long time as well. His grandparents lived next door to mine. Anyway, Happy Soon to be Birthday little baby!!

Today was much more autumn-ish,and much less winter-esque. YAY. I hope tomorrow is the same way. Tomorrow is CORN MAZE DAY!!! woohoooooo.

At work today, I had a good day. The Lord has been helping me with my frantic-ness, and I am thankful. It was just a pretty good day at work!

God is so good, and His mercy endures forever. I thank the Lord for His deliverance from all the things we let weigh us down.

I hope everyone has a good night.

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

It is so windy and cold here!! The snow didn't stick in the valley, but the foot hills and mountains are covered. That is so cool to look out the window and see. Especially where I work, which is close to the foothills and a closer up view of the mountains, it was really pretty this morning driving back home.

I just got on one of the local news stations and it is 46 degrees right now, but the wind chill brings it down to 38 degrees. It is supposed to warm up by next weekend though, high is 70 for Friday. That is good. I just hope it is nice on Wednesday, I am going to the corn maze, and it would be nice if it was nice and fally, just not so wintery yet. :)

Have a good day, I am ready to watch a movie or something.

December??

We got our first snow today. Shew it was falling big and fast, but didn't start to stick right away because it was to warm outside. It was really slushy and just cold. I don't know if I have ever seen it snow in October. BRRRR.

Hi

This week has flown by again. Seems like that is all that happens anymore.

It is finally cold cold here in Idaho. We have been hearing the word "snow" in the weather forecasts for tonight. That would be pretty cool. Although, I do not relish the long commute in snow. I don't like bad roads. Fresh snow is fine, its not toooo bad, but at high speeds, eck.

Hoping to get my shed in place Sunday afternoon or Monday. It has been waiting at my parents until I get my space ready. I was going to put it at the back of my fence, but I think I have changed my mind.

I am painting my front door too, bright red. Not quite fire engine red, but not to far from it. I can't remember the name of the color, but I hope it turns out pretty. I need to do it soon before it turns rainy or to cold to dry. I am thinking this weekend.

Work is so so so busy. I sit down nearly all day, but come home physically tired. I am thankful for a job, just pray for me to keep my wits about me and work my hardest, and stay happy and joyful. Its possible with God. All things are possible with Him.

Good night, Jesus loves YOU!

Rain Rain Rain

Okay, so rain is good, and a blessing for the land, but I am ready for some sunshine! I am gettinga shed for my back yard and I am ready for my yard to dry up a bit so I can get it in here without tearing things up to much.

Today was a good day. Although I guess I should start with yesterday first. We (my family)celebrated my grandpa's 76th birthday and went out to a new restaurant in the area. My grandma also turns 70 today, their birthdays are very close. So we kind of celebrated both at the same time. It was fun. I got chicken curry, it was okay, but I wish I had gotten something else. Was fun to go somewhere new and be with the family though. Now to today. I got to see lots more family. We celebrated my Cousin Aubries first birthday. She got a doll that giggles when you squeeze it, and she would laugh back at it. SO cute. I hope she had a really good day. I got to see my cousin's Troy, Jennifer, Marissa, and Josh by marriage...and Aubrie...who is my cousin technically, but it feels weird beings she is so much younger, so I call myself Aunt Kasey. Josh (her daddy) told me to do it too, so its all good. She is so cute. I wish I had brought my camera so I could show some pictures. She really liked getting to eat her cake, which was all over her little hands, and surprisingly not to much was on her face!

I need to get off here now, but thank the Lord for a day surrounded by family. My dear family, I love you. May God lead and guide you and bless you as you bless Him. I LOVE YOU!!!

Missing Him

I miss Damon. A lot. I don't talk about it a lot because I don't want to come off as complaining or ungrateful or whatever. I am so blessed to have had him as my husband. I can't ever thank the Lord enough for giving me Damon. I know it was time for Damon to go home, and I am happy for him. I miss him though, a lot. I love my husband, and miss him. Say a prayer for me please. God has kept me, sustained me, and held me this far. He won't let go now.

Happy Friday

It's Friday, goodness, again! The weeks seem to fly by anymore.

I kinda had a rough day. Work is sooo so busy. And, to be honest, I didn't handle the stress very well. I would think from time to time, that I needed to check my attitude because my coworkers areseing my reaction, essentially my witness. Please just say a prayer for me, that I can better know how to handle the situations. I am so thankful for my job, the Lord has continued to provide for me and I don't want to grumble like I did today.

This weekend will be really busy, so I need to get to bed. We are celebrating my Grandpas birthday tomorrow evening, and my little cutie Cousin Aubrie's very first first first birthday on Sunday afternoon.

Watched Facing the Giants tonight, that movie is so great. Good night.
