My Guys


Have I mentioned how blessed I feel to have these two men in my life, lately? Well -- it's about time doncha think? *smile*


I don't know if you all know this -- but guys aren't like girls...not at all...nope -- not even a smidge like us. And I think that is a good thing. It certainly keeps things interesting...and me on my toes.


I snapped this picture the other day when they were working on some Royal Ranger stuff...mano a mano. They were out there building fires. Lashing sticks together to make a table. Throwing a tomahawk at the trees and just having a hee-ho time. I loved watching them working on it all together. Just being guys. What a blessing to have a teenager that enjoys spending time with his Dad. I hope that means that their relationship will only get stronger from here -- and they will have years to do "guy" things together.
Major cleaning going on at my house. My sister and nephew and niece are coming for a visit and bring the rest of the stuff from my Mom's house to me. Have to clean out and organize so I have some place to put it. Good exercise -- helping me think through what I need to keep and what can be thrown away so when Royce and I get married it might not be such a huge chore to merge our households. What was that interior design show that used to be on tv that took the stuff from the bride and groom's houses while they were on their honeymoon and created the new house from both? Merge? or something? Wish they still did that!
Hope you all are off to a great weekend.

    You are blessed! I love those pics of your guys. I hadn't thought about how hard it would be to merge the households of two adults. When I got married, dh and I had virtually nothing, so it wasn't a big deal. People accumulate so much in life that I think it would be a daunting task to merge. You can do it though! Just do a little at a time, but don't let him talk you into getting rid of any scrapbook stuff. LOL!

"What? You Are Drawing and Painting In Your Bible?!?!?!"

Image
This question was followed by the whispered question, "Don't you think that makes God mad? It's HIS WORD!"  Yes...let me introduce myself. Hi, I'm Jann and I am a Bible Journal-er! Since you have seen me draw on just about anything...you are probably not as surprised as my friend with whom I had this conversation. And just to be clear, I'm not poking fun at her - I think that I have had that exact same conversation with myself over the years of my personal study...because even though I have recently started painting in my Bible - I have written my heart out in the margins of many Bibles as I have dug into God's Word to learn everything that He has wanted to teach me. And I have often drawn small images to remind myself of a principle -- like the one I drew here at the end of the book of Genesis! Rabbit Trail : I felt that it ends rather abruptly - after we have studied all the things that happened to Joseph over the course of his life the final sente...

Under His Wings

Image
 Everyone needs a safe place to go when they are afraid or in danger. Growing up in Texas, we learned at a young age that when the tornado siren went off, you stopped and headed to the inner most room of the house with no windows. If you were quick about it, you could also bring a pillow and a stuffed animal for comfort. The whole family would huddle until the storm had passed. That's not bad advice...for earthly storms...but hiding in a closet when you're facing life's trials doesn't real help much! I love the picture of God's covering and protection that we find in Psalm 91. It says He will cover us with His wings (or feathers) like a Mama chicken takes care of her chicks! When danger comes...all her brood hustle to get under her wings because she will protect them with her life. There is no safer place...in life, than under the protection of our Mighty God! I created this card and Bible page with the @sweetnsassystamps set called "Under His Wings." It i...
