Favorite Things

I thought I would share a few of my favorite things that I am using this year to help me study God's word.

The first being the Scripture Reading Plan I am using provided by the Journey church. I like it because if you get behind it is easy to get caught up. :)

The second is what I am using to help me memorize verses. I have always wanted to memorize Philippians and shared that desire with my husband. He directed me to this site which has a VERY helpful guide to memorizing Philippians!

TEXAS

These pictures are posted in a random order...it was taking me too long to get them all organized. :)
Mom was kind enough to take Emma and me to Texas to visit family. I hadn't been in a year and a half. It was a GREAT trip!

GG gave Emma her first Ice Cream cone....I'm in for it now! :)

Look at my sweet little clown. Aunt Tami's house has more fun things for Emma to play with that her little pre-school. Emma would be in hog heaven living there! :) We got to vist Gan alot and Emma enjoyed pushing her in her "stroller". Emma was scared of that "contraption" :) at first but once she saw her cousin Owen pushing Gan and after I kept talking about it being a "stroller" she was okay with it. It was too sweet though! Emma knew exactly how to take Gan down to the dining hall. She enjoyed taking Gan to supper even when it wasn't supper time! Emma smiling...so cute! Reminds me of my little Janey in China...I'll have to find a picture of her putting her fingers up to her cheeks and smiling! Emma FINALLY sat in Gan's lap...not for long though. She was too scared of that "contraption" to sit in Gan's lap. Working hard...Emma is ready for a job! Reading with "O Dave" as Emma calls him. Finally giving Gan a hug....too sweet!!! Showing Gan her "treasures" - an acorn a rock and a bolt she found outside on the sidewalk I LOVE this picture!!!!!!!!!!
Emma kissing and loving on her little cousin Ben...too sweet! Some fun shots of Emma jumping!! "working" on the deer feeder!
Owen and Emma watching the corn fall out of the deer feeder.
"O Dave" and Owen taking us for a drive at the Ranch.
The best and most relaxing place in the world.....prior to kids! :)
No...it is still a great place and so relaxing...there is just something about the ranch that I LOVE! Emma copying her cousin Brooke...or maybe torturing... :) Uncle "Pig" (that's what Emma said), Ma 2 and Emma A picture with the deer...Emma wasn't afraid...surprise, surprise. Uh oh...did "Ducky" fly away? Mommie Dee, Grandaddy & Emma
