Thank you!

Hello chicks!!

I just wanted to pop in and thank each and every one of you for thinking of my little family as we've been going through this season of layoff anticipation. I'm so incredibly happy to report that in the past two weeks, there have been two layoffs and Shane has not been a part of either one. There are still more that are expected but we are just trusting that God has it all under control. Yesterday, I just felt such an overwhelming amount of peace about the whole situation. We've been incredibly blessed because the past few weeks, Shane has been working overtime. He really didn't even have a day off he was working so much. What a blessing that was!

So thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your prayers and words of encouragement. I really really felt them. Thank you once again.

I hope to jump right back into blogging asap! I've missed it!! I've got some projects under my belt that I'm excited to share. Today, I also bought TWO gallons of paint for a number of projects that I'm itching to get at. The weather is fall-like here. We've even had some frost warnings in neighboring towns. I've got to get these painting projects done before the snow flies.....I say that with a nervous little laugh. I know it's coming soon!

Look for everything soon!! Love you all!!

I am sure you are feeling very much relieved. We are continuing to pray for you. I am confident that everything will turn out fabulously for you guys!! I can't wait to see your projects!! Today and tomorrow are supposed to be fall like, but then it is going to get hot here again. Oh how I can't wait until fall!! I can't stop buying raffia and pumpkins. I think it is a compulsive disorder...LOL!!
