"Leftovers"

Last Friday and Saturday I went to a ladies conference in Canyon, Texas. We had an amazing time there, and the lessons taught were such a blessing. They have been doing this retreat for 16 years so, the theme this year was leftovers. They used all the left over things from the very first one to last year. The messages taught by Mrs Martin, were on not giving God our left overs. So often that is what He gets; our leftover time, money, possessions, etc. She also said something that really was a neat quote I thought "There is nothing quite as bad as something that is not so bad." If we stand back and look at what we have done do we say "Oh, that's not so bad." When really we should be able to stand back and say "I think I have done this to bring honor and glory to God, this is my absolute best, I have given Him my best."

Like always, it is also a fun time to see people we don't get to see very often, and a wonderful time of just goofing around and having fun with other Christians.

I have a video of all the women singing. It was so beautiful, but my camera's recorder is horrible so sorry about that. I can't get it to upload right now so I will try another time. Hopefully it will be up soon.

 Of course, {PICTURES}!!!!

2 girls that sang a very beautiful special!

The 2 pastor's wives that hosted the retreat. One is from Plainview and the other is from Fritch.

New Job Update; Long Lost Blog

I am very sorry I have been waiting so long between posts. Hopefully I will be a little less busy and have more to post about this summer. I actually will have something to post this weekend, but I am getting ahead of myself. You shall have to wait and see!!!


I am absolutely loving my new job! I am learning a lot and still feel like I have so much more to learn, but I'm getting there and it's coming along good. For those of you who don't know I am working for a licensed esthetician and really enjoying it. Also, my facial she gave me was like heaven came down. Oh my goodness it was wonderful. I had some blemishes on my face, and between the facial and her putting me on a new skincare regimen, my skin is almost back to normal. The texture of it is so much better now, as well as just everything about it. So, I am now a believer in seeing an esthetician/ getting facials if you can.

I also wanted to share something from today that was an amazing blessing to me. So, my mom is a substitute teacher and she had to work today ( I really am going seomwhere with this). So, I came home for my lunch hour and my sweet, amazing, wonderful = ) dad made me mini pizzas for lunch. He went to the store and bought cheese, toppings, tomato paste, etc. Super duper sweet, I know, I have the greatest parents in the whole world, they are fabulous!
