Our house is warming up!

This past Saturday our heater broke right before Nathans 4th birthday party. For the past few days we have been using space heaters to keep the house warm. Today one of our friends dad came and fixed our heater for FREE and put all the new parts on for FREE. Thank you Jesus for ALWAYS being our provider.

Mailbox Surprise

Most of the time it is a felony to put things besides mail in a mailbox, unless it is a blessing from God. I don't think it is a secret that we aren't wealthy financially, and so we depend on the grace of God to provide for our family. It is close to payday so we don't have much money. We have been creative with what we are going to do the next few days to save what we have, or should I say what we don't have. We were expecting a check in the mail for washing some windows this past weekend and when we went to the mailbox there was a check plus an envelope with some cash in it. Not from the same person. Nobody but God knew our need. That is how God's economy works. When you are obedient to God, He is faithful to you.

Nathan is 4 today.

Date Night

Tomorrow my sweet husband Tim is taking me on a date. When we got married 7 years ago we said we will go on a date once a week. We might not always go to dinner and a movie every week, but we do try to spend time with each other on the couch, watch a movie at home, or play a card game. What should we do tomorrow night since we are "going out" we have 4.5 hours?

Jesus is Here

Recently our Family went to Colorado and stayed a few days in the mountains. We had a great time. Everyday we were able to play in the snow. It snowed a few hours everyday and it was beautiful. Two days before we were playing to leave we saw it was supposed to snow several feet over the next couple of days. So we wouldn't be stuck, we decided to leave early the next morning. We woke to 2 feet of snow and it was still falling. Our car was covered!!!

Being Oklahomans we don't understand "don't drive in deep snow". We loaded the car and tried to head out. We made it a few feet and couldn't move. We were stuck physically and mentally. We didn't know what to do. Here is how the conversation went in the car.

Nicole- What are we going to do now?

Tim- Um, let me get out and see what I can do.

Nathan- Mom, lets pray! Jesus please help us, Jesus please help us, Jesus please help us.

And what do you know; Jesus showed up driving a road plow.

Nathan exclaimed - Jesus is here!!!
