This Week's Goals


We enjoyed a wonderful date walking along the grounds at "Ashland" the estate of Henry Clay.  Unfortunately it was already closed for tours but the grounds were simply stunning.  
The happy hubby and I just returned from a wonderful trip to Lexington, KY.  We also attended a wonderful conference as part of our get away.  It was wonderful!  I feel so refreshed and ready to tackle my week!  I hope that your Monday is off to a great start!  Here are a few of my goals for this week:

Mothering, Marriage, & Family:
1.  Attend two therapy appointments with Evangeline.  I also want to spend some time evaluating what is working best in regards to Eva's therapy.
2.  Enjoy a wonderful field trip to help make Bibles.
3.  Take the entire family to the gym for a night of exercise and fun!

Homemaking:
4.  Complete some sewing alterations for my aunt.
5.  Finish crocheting a baby hat for a friend's little girl.

Personal:
6.  Finish reading Educating The Whole Hearted Child (or at least read 100 pages).
7.  Exercise three times.
8.  Continue studying through the Gospel of Mark.

Ministry & Friendships:
9.  Finish organizing songs in my binder of funeral arrangements.
10.  Attend a baby shower for one of my childhood friends.
11.  Have a blast at a dinner party that some of our friend's are hosting this weekend.

I'm also on the lookout for some book recommendations?  Do you have any suggestions?

August Reads

None Like Him: 10 Ways God is Different From Us by Jen Wilkin :  I'm quickly becoming quite the fan of Mrs. Jen Wilkin.  I've been working through her 1 Peter Bible Study this summer and I absolutely loved reading through this book on the attributes of God.  I found myself reminded of so many things and almost felt a sense of relief as I contemplated what God is like.  This book was a delight to read.  I love that there is now a book on God's attributes written especially for women.  Pure awesomeness!  I highly recommend this book for both new believers and those with years of experience.  I also think it would make a great book club book. The Power of a Praying Wife by Stormie Omartian: This book is one that I have been wanting to read for years and I just never got around to it.  I am so glad that I finally took the time to read and pray through this book!  What better gift could I give my husband the past month than to spend time earnestly praying for him through a

Our First Tent Camping Experience

Earlier in June we embarked on a new adventure.  TENT CAMPING!   Two summers ago we enjoyed a wonderful time camping in a borrowed pop-up camper but this was our first experience sleeping in a tent as a family.  We loaded up our very full van and headed to Land Between the Lakes in Western Kentucky for a new adventure.  It was wonderful.   One of the neatest aspects of our trip was the fact that Nina & Poppy Steve (Brandon's parents) were able to meet up with us!  (They live a good 10 hours away from us so this was a real treat.)  We had so much spending time with them.  We stayed at  Hillman Ferry Campground  and I would definitely stay there again.   Hillman Ferry Campground has a lovely beach with an area roped off for swimming.  The kids enjoyed playing in the sand and I even took them swimming in the lake.  I have been swimming many times in a lake but I think this was my children's first real time swimming in a lake.  (The closest lake to us no longer
