There is a few other things on the list but who am I kidding. I think we will be doing good to complete 1/2 of what I have listed here.

So, we made a trip to Lowes and purchased a few things to get us started. Its been alot of fun. The Lord has so graciously blessed us with this house and we want to be good stewards. We do consider it a privilege to even have a home as many across America don't. Thank you Lord. May we always look for ways to bless others with the blessing you give to us and may we never forget that every good and perfect gift is from above. You give and you take away. For what ever my lot, help me to always be content.

I also got my car back out of the shop yesterday and its running like new again... Any volunteers on giving it a good wash? LOL I wont include a picture of it for I am too ashamed of all the dirt. I will include as a bonus another cute picture of my baby though. ENJOY!!
