Hey Y'all~

Welcome to my blog.;)

Lately we've been pretty busy, my nephew Elliot being born<3, school starting back, and everyday happenings...

So I thought I'd share a few of our days, or however many I get uploaded. =)>



                       These are some pictures I took of some of the boys this past spring and summer.

                                These pictures turned out pretty fuzzy, but they were still fun to take.

                                                                       Mocha :))

                                                 My sweet Grandpa... He loves animals.:)

                                           We went for a walk in our woods, and he started naming
                                            plants and trees for me.:)

                                                   

                                                                        Oh, I'm tired...

                                                 This is my precious niece Lizzy.<3 <3

                                                And her pictures didn't go as planned....

                                                       So we tried new scenery. ;)

 

                                                             

                                                                         Canders

                                                                  ~Haven's garden~

                                                         

Hope y'all have a blessed week!

Thanks for visiting.:)

{Proverbs 3:5-6}

~Biblical Modesty~

     As Christians we are commanded by God to be modest. It is our job to be obedient to God in the way we dress, just as much as the way we act. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. 

  
   We are ladies so let's act like them. If we flaunt ourselves immodestly to the world we will  gain no respect.  You will get attention, but not the right kind.    

There is a saying that says dressing immodestly is like rolling in manure. You will get attention, but only from pigs.  You can also read Proverbs 11:22.

I think that says it quite well!;)        
But you may still be asking, so what really is modesty anyway?

Modesty means to be free from undue familiarity, from indecency, from lewdness, pure in thought and conduct. Speaking of modest apparel, it means decent, seemly. The opposite of modesty is conceit, boldness, immodesty, brazenness, lewdness. ~Elisabeth Elliot~

Although, you may already be perfectly modest on the outside, but what about on the inside?
As my parents have said before you can be wearing a skirt down to your ankles on the outside, but wearing short shorts on the inside. It's your heart that really matters, because whatever is in your heart is eventually going to come out. So we must not be holier than thou because we are more modest than the person next to us, or because we don't wear a bikini.
What we wear doesn't make us any better than the next person. 

Being modest is more than what we wear, it's how we act, what we do, and what we say.
                                                             ~Proverbs 31:30~

                                                                   Blessings,

Hey there!

       So it's official... I am the worst blogger ever! My goal for 2017 is to post a bit more regularly!

 
   Anyways.... Several weeks ago my family and I went to the Ark encounter, it was amazing! Much more realistic that those little tub boats they put in children's books with all the animals sticking out. Here are some pictures.

                                                           Traveling up to Kentucky.

                                                                        -The Ark-

 

 

 

                                                                       It is huge!

 

The water pots.

 

 

Me and Mama.

 

One of Matthew's pegs that he paid for.:)

 

All of us kids (minus one) downstairs at the gift shop.

 

 

Well, that was just some of the pictures, I can't find the rest. ;)

 

We traveled back down to Tennessee and went to stay at the Chattanooga hotel, and went to Ruby Falls and Lost at Sea.

                           

 

                                             It was so cool!                                                 

                                                               

 

We look like demons! :))

 

 

-Chattanooga-

 

The big ole' Christmas tree.;)

 

Is he not the cutest thang??:)

 

 

Goofing off is what we are best at!

 

Pajama kids.

 

Me and Madeline.

Well that's it!

 

 

Hope you all have a very happy New Year!

Spring!

                                                          ~Spring~

     I am so exited about it almost being Spring! It is one of my most favorite times of the year!
Today I planted lettuce in the Garden, and hopefully it will grow like it should.;)
                                            One of my favorite sayings goes......
                      
                              ~To plant a Garden, is to believe in tomorrow~

 Well, I suppose it would be more interesting to share some pictures, instead of listening to me!
                                                                  So here goes!

         Recently when I did my daily Bible Study I read a verse that really stuck out to me.
                                 So maybe it will be encouraging to you too.;)               
 
                                             And we know that in all things   
                                 God works for the good of those who love Him
                                And have been called according to His purpose.
                                                       ~Romans 8:28~         
    

                                                       Post more later!
                                                           Blessings,
                                                           ~MNM~

Happy New Year!

                                                Happy New Year!
                 Hope you all have a very exiting 2016!!!  
     
                                        Blessings,
