Psalm 91:4 "He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler." What exactly is a "buckler?" According to the Easton Bible Dictionary, a buckler is a large shield protecting the whole body. Please pray for my mom. I rushed her to the […]

It's Looking Like Fall
Like many other bloggers, Fall is my favorite season. It's actually the Colonel's favorite season also. So, the other day I asked the Colonel to please bring my "orange" boxes up from the storage room. Felt so good to unpack them. I didn't unpack them last year. My Colonel was in Afghanistan last year and […]
I'm Alive!
You know it's time to update your blog when your husband sends you an email from Afghanistan sounding like the Colonel he is insisting that I update with something! It's just been so hard to find something, anything to write about! Not much going on in my life. My Colonel is still in Afghanistan. […]
Happy Anniversary!
23 years ago I made the best decision of my life and married the Colonel. Here we are on our wedding day with my parents. I'm wearing my mother's gown. Our photographer wasn't the greatest. He kept "squishing" my dress and in most of the pictures you can't see how pretty it is. It was […]
Dear Dr. Martucci
In the future when I come to your office complaining of various symptoms that require you to place me on an antibiotic, will you please GIVE ME THE STRONGEST antibiotic that you have access to? For example, at the beginning of the year I came down with something. I have no memory of what […]
I'm Still Here
I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. I went back to the doctor on Thursday and am happy to report that I now have bronchitis on top of the throat infection and the ear infection. The coughing has been pretty bad. But I'm managing, feeling better every day. I read a […]
And We're Back, Sort Of
Not feeling too good. Need some time to try and get over this cough and catch my breath... Literally! I'll be back in a few days.
I'm Here!
This week has been CRAZY. I've hardly had any time to blog, as you all can tell by the lack of posts this week. AND, I've hardly had any time to visit your blogs! That never happens. I always find time to at least read what's going on in your lives through my […]
Let's Go For A Drive.
Here's the lovely view from the window... Not too far of a drop... Look out! Oh my, I see quite a few other people wanted to go for a drive today as well... Can you even imagine driving on this road? I first saw these pictures on […]
Does Your Campground Have a BC?
Something VERY funny. The story is told of a lady who was rather old-fashioned, always quite delicate and elegant, especially in her language. She and her husband were planning a week's vacation in Florida, so she wrote to a particular campground asking for a reservation. She wanted to make sure the […]
Deck the Halls...
Today I am joining Susan at Thoughts From Over the Rainbow for her Deck the Halls Party and sharing with you my Christmas Department 56 Village Collection. I have seven lighted houses. I love each house, but especially the "Apple Valley Schoolhouse." When Olivia was just 5 years old, the Colonel took her shopping and had […]
Let's Play a Fun Christmas Game!
Fun Christmas Game to Play Let's have some fun and answer silly questions that have to do with Christmas! 1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Well, the Colonel usually wraps the gifts and he does such a great job! I tend to use gift bags. I just don't have the patience. 2. Real tree […]
What I'm Thankful For
A different type of "Thankful List." I am thankful for: The mess to clean up after a party because it means I have been surrounded by friends. The taxes I pay because it means that I'm employed, well the Colonel is! My shadow who watches me work because it means I am out in the […]
I'm Back!
The Colonel and I went on a little trip! Every year the youth group at church go on a retreat. This year BOTH our children went...so we decided to go away as well. We went to Lancaster, PA, just under 2 hours from our home. Lancaster is famous for its large population of […]

Being German, she KNEW what the Nazi's plans were for the Jews. But Irena had a plan of her own. She smuggled infants […]
See How My Garden Grows June 2009
It rained almost every day last week, except for Saturday. I finally was able to get back out into my garden yesterday. It was such a beautiful day, the kind you want to bottle up and keep forever! Here are some pictures of everything in our garden. When we planted two weeks ago, I think […]
I'm Alive
Yes, I'm still here! It's been quite a few days since I've posted and life has been pretty busy. I just haven't had time to sit down at my computer to put together a post. To be more honest, my mind has been blank...can't seem to come up with anything to write about! Our weekend […]
Did You Know???
I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself. Who looks at the end of your aluminum foil box? You know when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box, then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over […]
A Bouquet of Thorns - Devotional
As promised, I'm going to spend this week sharing the devotional I gave at our Mother/Daughter Tea in 2007. I spent most of Saturday going over it, changing it, fixing it, etc. Here is Day One... Doing a devotional on the Proverbs 31 Woman can be terrifying! Let’s face it, we all have visions of […]

Ice Storm
Here are some pictures of the ice storm we had last Wednesday. It was quite hard to take pictures since everything really was a sheet of ice. I had to practically hold on to Michael to get around. I'm so old! 20 minutes of TRYING to break up the ice...I gave up! Oh, and WHERE […]

First and foremost, thank you BETH, BECKY and JEN for becoming followers. I was so happy to see your lovely faces join my other followers. I told the Colonel about my post from yesterday and how no one had commented or joined and he said, in true Army fashion, "Take it down before you really […]

My Dining Room...
Good Morning! I thought I'd share some pictures of one of my favorite rooms in our house. I've always wanted a formal dining room...our house in Paterson had a dining room but it was open to the kitchen and I really didn't like sitting down to a nice meal while still being able to see […]
Scripture Saturday...
Isaiah 61:10-11 I delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. For as the soil makes the […]
My Garden...
My garden is doing really well, as you can see from the above pictures. I was a little concerned since we got the plants in the ground pretty late this year. We only planted three tomato plants. Usually we do around 6 or 8, but things are doing good, although as you can see from […]
