Fully celebrating Lent I remember hearing a sermon about how you should seek the sacraments more often to grow your faith and those words just ran off of me like water. How can going to mass (more often than once a week) and confession (more than twice a year) really grow my faith?? Seems like… Continue reading Things making me happy lately

Good Friends I have been wading through many tough decisions lately and if I did not have a strong support system in place, I would be sinking instead of treading water right now. As I've slowly been whittling down my options as to what our life will look like next year, I've come to realize… Continue reading Blessings

1. Aldi Dark Chocolate Yum, yum, yum. Did I mention yum? I found this gem at Aldi a few months ago and was very impressed with how creamy the dark chocolate was. I get the 85% one, but the others are of course delicious as well. I love to slather on two tablespoons of peanut… Continue reading Things That Are Making Me Happy

1. Advent Christmas as a holiday is fun and memorable, but when you add in the religious aspects, it becomes magical and wonderful. We were blessed this week to be able to celebrate Advent together as a family. We celebrated mass together on Saturday and got to see the first Advent candle being lit.

1. Fall is finally here! Alabama is known for its wild temperature swings in the Fall. One day it will be a crisp 50 degrees, the next it will swing up to the upper 70s with plenty of humidity. Usually after a certain date (which changes every year) our lovely Fall season really begins. I… Continue reading Blessings This Week

1. A Family of Faith Program I mentioned a few weeks ago that our church was trying a new Sunday School program this year called A Family of Faith.  We had our first parent's meeting this week and were blessed to have five nuns come to kick it off (They were in full habits and… Continue reading Blessings This Week

1. A Family of Faith For the past two years, I have taught Sunday school classes at my church, which have not always been all rainbows and lollipops for me (apparently I am not stern enough??) Well this summer, I have been wavering back and forth on my decision about whether or not to teach… Continue reading Blessings this Week

1. Swim class My youngest is a very reluctant swimmer (unless he can use his floaties) so I enrolled him in swim class to help move his progress along.  Much to my surprise, the swim instructor believes in the principle of full immersion as the best way to learn how to swim. So on his… Continue reading Blessings This Week

1. Lots of quiet time My children have been visiting their grandparents for the past week (and while I do miss them) it is so nice to get projects done and spend lots of quality time alone with my husband.  I have mostly been decluttering and finishing up our homeschool preparation for the upcoming year… Continue reading Blessings This Week

Here are some blessings that I received this week: 1. Raincheck I missed out on a great deal on ice cream sandwiches last week at Kroger because they sold out quickly during their 4 day sale promotion.  While I was checking out at Kroger last week, I was chatting with one of my favorite cashiers… Continue reading Blessings This Week
