I decided to make "homemade" Hummus...I LOVE the stuff and thought it would be fun to make it. After looking up the recipe on FoodTv I headed to Fry's last night to get ll I needed. I found everything including the $11.95 jar of Tahini paste! So funny that we try to make healthy food and it costs you an arm and a leg! LOL I could have just bought the Hummus for $3.99. So I got everything out today and made the Hummus. I did take a little while and it taste pretty good. Needs more garlic! So am going to keep it up and I KNOW I'll get better at it! So watch out my friends you may end up with some!

My beautiful daughter Lillie!

Tonight Mark got home late from work and was tried from being on call for the last 7 days. Wet, cold and tried we left Mark at home with Austin and off we went to church. Lillie makes me smile in so many different ways. Just as we pull into the parking lot of church she turns to me and says" Mom who was God's mom?" I smile and say " Go ask Pastor James! " She looks at me and smiles. I tell her that He just was. He had no beginning.

We get into the car after Bible study and she talks the WHOLE way home. About everything from school who said what to who, all about what was said and TeamKid! WOW alot to say in alittle trip home. The whole holding her purple, sparkly Bible!

Pure of heart, true to God saying there is ONLY one true God! I pray that that stays with her for her WHOLE life. As I sit here writing this I think can I be that Godly mother she needs? Can I guide her the way God wants me to? I pray that she will always trust Him with everything no matter what life brings her.

I praise God that he has blessed me with Lillie in more ways then I can express. I came across a book from Vicki Courtney " 5 conversation you must have with your daughter" Am going to get this book to make sure that I give her ALL the help and love to stay true to herself and God.

Thank you Lord for blessing me with the gift of a daughter, let remember to tell her I love her everyday, be the best role model I can for her. Teaching her to walk with the Lord always and trusting in Him.!

I want you to meet my friends Brian and Tonya Devine. We have known them for over 12 years! We have been though ups and downs in both our lives, all the while working on our faith and walking with Christ.

Brian and Tonya have made the decision to go into full time ministry with FamilyLife. I think that is AWESOME that they are listening to Christ and what he wants them to do. They are giving up a life that is in a comfort zone to move to another state and do work for the Lord full time! They have a heart to strengthen and encourage families to stay strong and turn to Christ in ALL they do and need.

Mark and I many years ago were apart of a FamilyLife marriage weekend. It was in the middle of going though the lose of our daughter Sydney. We learned soooo much that weekend about each other, ourselves and just how much Christ loves us to keep us married!

I will be praying for them as they get things together to leave into the mission field and as they are IN the mission field. They have been blessed with three wonderful boys that will be in the field with them.

You are awesome Devine family!! And we love you!!

In 1 Thessalonians 3:2 it says " We sent ( Brian and Tonya) Timothy, who is our brother and God's fellow worker in spreading the gospel of Christ, to strengthen and encourage you in your faith. "

I would but Brian and Tonya's name in place of Timothy!
