Dressed Alike....

Ok...
So  have  you  ever  gone  to  church...
and noticed
that  you  had  the
  same  color  of  top  or  dress  on  as  someone  else?
And  not  even 
calling  up the other  person  or  people
to  inform  them  that  you  were  wearing  a  certain outfit.
Here are some examples:
Mrs  B  and  Mrs  H
So  of  course... 
when  you  do wear  the same...
you  must  pose  for  a  photo !

Fun Times!

Take  Care and  Love  to All,
Mommy 2

Lavender...Lavandar....Or Lavendar ???

Ok....
Mommy1....
Sent me on a Mission this morning...
Google Lavender....
I found out that people spell it differently...
(that wasn't the reason I googled it...just a side note)
I was suppose to find out if I could grow it as a houseplant...
I found out that the best kind to grow in the house is the French variety...
I had bought some of the English...
So...these are "headed" outside today..to be planted.
This is what I already have growing outside...
A darker version of "English"
Here...is my inspiration...
the Lavender Festival
that I went to last month
while visiting my daughter.
So...
If you have any suggestions for growing Lavender...
they are Welcomed !!!
Meanwhile...
I am off to plant...
Take Care,
Mommy 2

P.S.
Thanks Mommy1...
for getting me inspired...
by telling me to google Lavender.

Pool Party...All Day...Everyday

Here  are  more  vacation  pictures
Youngest  son...
living  in  the  pool...
Yep...
All  day  everyday !
While  some of  us  had  not  even  gotten  ready  for a  swim
Even   while  the  pool  was  being  cleaned
WAIT.....
there   he  is  waiting  patiently (in the yellow swim trunks)
while  his  tube  is   getting  some  air
Yep....
He  lived  on  that  inner tube...
for  a  week
(as  much  as  I  would  let  him)
BTW...
A   few   other   people  did  go swimming
this  was  a  non  heated pool....
so....anyway... 
once  you  got  in  and  got use to it...
it  was GREAT  !!!
Even   the   dog  enjoyed
  being  around  (not  in)  the pool
   My   grandsons  having   fun  with   the  pool  floaties

We   had  a  very  refreshing  time on  our  vacation.
Take care,
Mommy 2

To Mommy 1's House we will go....

So...
One of My favorite places to go is
Mommy 1's House.
I got to go there yesterday...
Yea !!!
I don't get to go to Mommy 1's very often...
because she lives an hour away.
It is a place where many people like to go.
I took my friend Heather and her little boys also.
Here are some photos of  what
what we saw.
Take care,
Mommy  2

I will post more pictures soon...

I Blinked...

Time has flown...
really it has...
wasn't I just 18 last year...
getting ready to graduate from high school...
getting engaged, then married 6 months later...
Having one baby several years later, then eventually 7 more...
I ponder these things & more...
not everyday...but often.
Today I was thinking about how nice the weather is...
then got to thinking about the things to do this week, next week, this month, this year...
So....we need a balance here...
on what lies behind & what lies ahead....
while consentrating on the present & what needs to be done.
Setting daily goals is always a good start...
Getting out of bed is a good thing to do...
And is the thing we must do each and every day.
Next should be
our time spent with the Lord Jesus Christ in Bible reading and prayer.
Asking the Lord what we should do for the day.
I like to "think" if the Lord wills...we will do such & such today 
Or in the future...
Because sometimes no matter how much we plan to do something,
the Lord Jesus may have something else for us to do.
I have been thinking about the tornado victims...
I am sure they did not get up that morning 
and say:
"Today looks like a good day for my house to be hit by a tornado."
We should plan for the future, but look to the Lord Jesus to guide us.
By putting ourselves and plans aside...
we may see some people that need our help.
People that need to hear about Jesus and how He can save them.
I will be praying for you that read this
and 
those people that you could make a difference in their lives.
Take care and Love to You all,
Mommy 2
