(Plus some extra pictures)
Balloons from the Fiesta last year
I'm so sorry I was sort of quick
yesterday and didn't offer much
explanation for my outfit. We
were getting ready to go to my
Grandma and Grandpa's for
dinner so I was in a hurry. :)
I'm wearing a sweater that I've had
for a long time! Not sure were I got
it but it was probably given to me.
The skirt was one Mykaela had in
her closet that Mom had gotten at
Savers for her. Mykaela wasn't wearing it because it was to big on her,
and so I tried it on and it fit just fine! Maybe Kayla will get it when I'm
done with it...
If anyone's
interested,
but here is a
picture of my
shoes. :)

I put my hair in a tucked pony tail.
(One I got at Savers several
years ago) and the skirt was
either given to her our found at
Savers.
go with a pony tail.
Keturah is
wearing a "Savers
skirt" and she got
the shirt from Kayla,
and the poncho
was given to her.
(Also in the picture
is Chiquita)
I put Keturah's hair
in a ponytail with
a scrunchy that
she picked out.
She loves her little "baby"!
...And the chickens!
Couldn't resist putting
these sweet pictures of Copper on. (Are you tired of the pups yet) :)
This is the remains of the turkey that Mom was preparing for dinner. I think Copper is feeling a little jealous...
OK, here is the poem I said I would post. As I think I've mentioned before, I'm still working on getting the meter right and I know it's not technically correct but I tried, so bear with me! :)
The Choice
Darkness now settles-
Faces awry
Three supposed criminals
Hanging to die.
Say’s one to the man
Who’s in greatest pain
“If you are who you say-
Call your Fathers name.”
Instead of demanding
Justice be brought
No relief was asked
And no comfort sought.
Grace is the huge gift
That freely was laid
Broken-down sinners
Through a guilt free man-saved .
“For you” said the other
Hanging beside
“This man has suffered,
And he soon will have died
I trust you Lord
And all that you say.”
Christ said “You shall dwell
In my Kingdom this day.”
The whole earth now shakes
The end very near
Sadness on some faces
Others look in fear
The cry: “It is finished”
Falls on many ears
Different faces
Stream down with tears
The torn head of Christ
Now drops down low
His breathing has ceased
Romans bid crowds to go
Torn is the veil
Just like so many hearts
The heavens seem darker
Some broken apart.
Laid in a deep tomb
It seems evil presides
Until it is shattered
For great light abides!
The angels rejoice
Singing jubilees
Death’s been defeated
Praise God on your knees
Christ is not dead
But risen Indeed
Mary’s rejoicing
“Clamps of death have been freed!”
The darkness now lifted,
Christ’s body is gone
Go people of Christ
Bring his great name in song
We remember the thieves
Who hung there as well
One went with Jesus-
The other to Hell
When you’re time has come
And you make the choice
Will you take Christ’ gift
Or ignore his voice?
The gift has been given
The price has been paid
Sinners repented
On Christ our sins laid.
On Calvary that day
Two chose where they stand.
One dropped down in darkness
One taking Christ’s hand.
Praise God he has risen
Sin cut like a knife
But what will you choose?
Hell or eternal life?
Hope you all have a great week! God Bless.
