Labor Day Weekend

Ohhh, how sad that this is the last day of the wonderful 3 day weekend. I finally got to spend some time with Jauque. We've been friends since 5th grade! She's one of my oldest friends. We've been through a lot. Good and bad.
She's a year younger than me, but has FIVE kids!! And I'm a single mom with two boys...so obviously it's hard for us to be able to find time to get together. Gage and her son are just 3 months apart. And they're best friends...and have been since they were newborn babies. :) James is like my second son!
So, Saturday Jauque and I met up for lunch at P3 (Pioneer 3). We just had chips and hot sauce, smoked, talked. It was nice to catch up. Then we went to check out the new TJ Maxx store.
James wanted to stay the night, so after our afternoon together, I went to Henrietta to pick him up. Jauque wanted to cook out, so we stayed, visited, and ate. It was a good time.

Gage.

Gage and James trying to steal Jauque's van to go driving around town.....didn't work. haha.

Jauque and Kourtney (she's 13).

Cody (he's 8)...this boy is the sweetest boy EVER! Sooo well behaved and sweet and funny. I love this kid.

And Jauque's twins. Trey and Thomas (they're 2). Cutie pies!!!

Me and Jauque!!

It was a fun weekend.

Day Fourteen: Non Fictional Book

Day Fourteen of the 30 Day Challenge:

A non-fictional book.

I loved, loved, loved this book. I cried all the way through it. Like, seriously...the whole boook. I remember sitting in front of Zac's school last year, waiting for him to get out, reading this book, and bawling like a baby. People would walk by my car and look at me like I was crazy, reading a book in front of an elementary school, with tears running down my face.

This book is so sweet and so amazing, it's hard to believe is it non fiction....but it is.

And I recommend it to you! Please read it, if you haven't already. :)

And the winner this week is.... one that made me literally laugh out loud....

No more than we can handle....

We complain about the cross we bear but don't realize it is preparing us for the dip in the road that God can see and we can't.

Whatever your cross, whatever your pain,
there will always be sunshine, after the rain....

Perhaps you may stumble, perhaps even fall;
But God's always ready, to answer your call.....

He knows every heartache, sees every tear,
a word from His lips, can calm every fear...

Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night,
But suddenly vanish, dawn's early light...

The Savior is waiting, somewhere above,
to give you His grace, and send you His love....

God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.
