Flock Together Tuesday Blog Hop CLOSED

 

Flock Together

It saddens me to announce that the "Flock Together Tuesday Blog Hop" must come to an end.  As I posted earlier, life has gotten too busy to maintain it. I've had such a wonderful time getting to know everyone through this hop, and I'll truly miss seeing you on the linky! May God bless you all, and I look forward to keeping in touch through our blogs!

And now, a sad announcement. Due to what I can only conclude as the earth picking up speed on me, I'm going to have to simplify this blog hop by cutting out the Fine Feathered Friend spotlight. It's my hope that by doing so, I'll be able to continue hosting the hop. It's been a pleasure awarding the many Fine Feathered Friends of the past year!

I am simple, gentle...most of the time, 
warm and friendly. 
I love good, godly music and dancing. 
I am fun loving and considerate.  I love to travel, make friends,read, and write. I am a child of God and I love Him.  My sole desire is to please Him in all that I do, all the time. I work towards showing Him to others by my  thoughts, words and actions. I am compassionate, my heart bleeds for suffering people.  I try to do something about them in little but meaningful ways.  I get a huge kick out of helping people. I am a minister of God, married to one husband. God's man-Benson Jolomi, he is a true christian and  I love him.  I also have three other God's men in my life,my sons: Joshua, Joseph, and Josiah.  They keep me up and about.  Because of them, I don't have problems with getting fat.I pray you get inspired to a better life!


I truly enjoy reading Ugoshi's posts, and I'm sure you will too. Her blog is very well developed, with posts about a wide range of topics, especially those related to women of God! Stop aby and consider following her today.

Children's Sermon: The Cookie Jar

Here's what I found for this week's children's sermon! Click on the link to see the details.

Title: The Cookie Jar

Source: Sermons4Kids

Scripture Reference: Acts 3: 19

Supplies Needed: Jar-like container with an opening just big enough to get your opened hand through, but not big enough to get your closed fist through (I used an Ovaltine container) and cookies.

Enjoy!

Cheap and Easy Fix for Scratched-Up DVD's

I'm so happy I came across this tip on Pinterest that REALLY WORKED to fix our scratched DVD's! Finding Nemo was restored on the first try, but The Mickey Mouse Club took about six tries, having less "hang-ups" after each try. Visit this site and see if it works for you too!

Trunk 'R Treat Car Decorating Ideas

The change in the weather has me thinking about my church's upcoming Trunk 'r Treat and how I might decorate my car this year! It's really a lot of fun seeing the creative side of my church family as they deck out their vehicles! I thought you might like to see a few of them...
Hunting Theme, complete with a Blue Tick Hound!

Fishing Theme on a spooky boat.


Pirate Theme with a convincing ship-like background.


Clemson Theme - not a favorite in these parts. The kids were reluctant to take my candy :)




You can also find some great ideas on Pinterest. Here are a few from my "October" board.



I Love Lucy Theme



Happy Days or 50's Theme




Bakery Theme



Slumber Party Theme



I'm leaning toward the Happy Days theme, but we've also thought about recreating the old western "Big Valley." Then again, I'm also drawn to the Slumber Party theme. I'd love to hear about your ideas too!

A Humble BumbleSome of my favorite things in this whole world are:
God's unchanging Word
My family
Most anything creative
My incredible boyfriend
Christian historical fiction
My adorable, cute, and funny nieces and nephews
Painting my nails

Easy breezy...that's what comes to mind when I visit Becca's blog! I can't really explain it, but I just feel like sighing when I land there, kind of like pulling up a chair and visiting  someone on their front porch. A visit here will probably include sharing how God is working in your lives, and she might show you a newly finished project and help you make one for yourself. Go visit her site and see if you don't agree that it's a pleasure!
