Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentine's Day

Sweet Peas

Hope you have a Sweet

and Romantic day!

I know that today I was suppose to continue

with an Adversity post,  but just doesn't seem

like the right day to talk about adversity,

seems more like a day to talk about love!

Don't you agree!!

So look for it next Monday, okay!!

Thought you might like to take a peek

at last years post since it talks about the

Best Love in the World.

Don't worry it is short!! Now I know

you don't think that is possible, but

really, it is!!  lol

Hope your weekend was a good one!

Ours was very good,  a little different that usual,

 but, that's good too!!

Our Friday started off with Jim's job interview,

and it seemed to go well,  and he feels it would

be a great working envirionment much like his

prior job, and he would be the only software

engineer again, and that is nice, cause he does 

everything himself,  and doesn't need to wait on

 others to do their part of the whatever before he

can continue, which is how it normally is in most

companies.  You get your projects completed

much faster when it is just one person doing it.

we did find out that they pay more for our health

 bennies than his prior Company, don"t know what

 they are exactly, but also found out one of their

perks is you get your Birthday off with pay!

Never seen that before!! 

We are suppose to hear something from them

 this week,  so we are still waiting!!  lol

We are so used to this anymore, I have to say

 it is not nearly as hard as it used to be, so.....

 guess that means we have gained some

 patience!!  lol

Now there's a good thing!!

Then on Friday afternoon I was just going

thru my blog roll and visiting some of you

gals, and all the sudden I came on one and

 saw Nellie, at Nellies cozy place, and I thought

 What.....and of course, quickly went there to

 see what was up!!

I found that I was the winner of a give a way,

 that I didn't even know she was having, or else 

I forgot,  that is entirely possible!!  lol

Anyway, she said such sweet things, that it made

 me cry,  good tears of course,  because I was 

so encouraged and truly, joyfully surprised and 

Blessed.  Click Here, if you would like to see

her announcement.

 I have no idea what she is mailing me as

 she wanted it to be a surprise until it arrives, 

which I am thinking might be by the end of the

 week, since it is coming from California.

So needless to say that made my Day!!

And 

certainly gives me something fun to look

 forward to this week

And when it arrives I will be sure to take

pictures so you can see!!

Meanwhile you should go over and check

out her lovely blog.  She is such a sweetie 

and we have been blog friends for over a year

and a half now, and we keep finding out more

 and more things we have in common all the time.

Bonnie is just a delightful lady,  and just finished

 doing some wonderful post for Valentines day all

 last week,  about marriage, and unconditional

 love....they were really great, so know you will

 enjoy them.  She too, is all about home and family,

has 3 adult married children with lot of adorable

 grandchildren,. and also takes us to great places

 with them, when  they travel. She has a great blog
and know you will enjoy it.

Saturday morning was our usual nice leisurely
time and  breakfast, then in mid afternoon Jim
went with a friend to the races,  and I stayed
home and worked on his Valentine,  and found
Valentine ecards to send to our adult kids,
then a dear friend came over and spent the
evening with me.  It was great to see her
as always.  So Jim and I both thad a fun time.


Sunday we went to church and the worship
music was so fun and uplifting,  I felt like
we were at a Gaither Homecoming!
Do you know this song........

Some glad morning when this life is o'er,
I'll fly away;
To a home on God's celestial shore,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).

Chorus
I'll fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).

2.
When the shadows of this life have gone,
I'll fly away;
Like a bird from prison bars has flown,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away)

Chorus

3.
Just a few more weary days and then,
I'll fly away;
To a land where joy shall never end,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away) 






Now imagine about 800 people singing
that and clapping.  Made your heart
want to jump for joy!!


Then we have the pleasure of seeing
2 young people that we have known
for about 30 years dedicate their new
baby boy.  They are a precious young
couple, and we just love them so much.
and
the dedication was so sweet, and
the Mom had a lil tear trickles down
her cheek, and wiped me out, don't
know what it is with me lately but
everything sweet someone says or
I see in a movie, or someone does or
that I read just makes me weep lately.


It was also special because half of the
 folks there were from our original church
 family from way back when we first started
 going there and before we became such
 a large church, and some don't attend our
 church anymore, but that bond of love and
 friendship is still there, and it was just
 so great
to see them all.


So it was just such a blessed Day!!


and oh yea,  I got these for Valentine's Day,

I'll show you better pics on my Thankful Thursday Post




Well, Sweet Peas.........
thanks for coming by and
 truly hope you have such a
Delightful and  Wonderful 
Valentine's Day!!
