Started our week off with a wonderful dinner at Out-Back.  I’ve been saving a gift card we had for quite some time.  Oh my…the pictures tell the story.

I rented a new lens for my camera.  I took a bunch or random pictures to check it out.  It’s now on my wish list!

Want to Change Places?

 

 

Friday Funnies

 

I recently received this cute joke in the mail .  I thought at the end of a crazy week, we could all use a laugh.  So good to be back here with you.  Happy Labor Day everyone.

 

 
Do you have any idea how hard your wife works to be a good mother?

Imagine this: six dads are dropped on a desert island with one car and three kids each for six weeks.

Each child will play two sports and take music or dance lessons. There’s no fast food, and every man has to correct homework, help with science projects, cook meals, do laundry, budget for groceries, pay the bills without enough money, know the birthdays of friends and relatives and send cards.

In addition, he has to take each kid for haircuts and to doctor and dentist appointments, bake cakes for school functions, plant flowers, and keep his home presentable at all times.

He can only watch TV after the kids are in bed and his chores are done, and then he must have enough energy to be intimate with his spouse at a moment’s notice.

He should be well-groomed, go to church at least once a week, read to his kids, pray with them every night, pack their lunches and favorite snacks, fix breakfast, make sure they’re dressed and on the school bus by 8:00 am.

At the end of six weeks every guy will be tested on his child’s height, weight, shoe size, favorite color, song, drink, toy, and their biggest fear. And here’s the best part—the winner gets to play the game over and over again for the next eighteen to twenty-one years!

So, do you still think you want to change places with your wife?

They fill our hearts with love.

I ran a Pioneer Woman action on this one and really liked the results!

The theme for this week challenge at I Heart Faces  was Photojournalism.  Using an images, or images to tell a story. 

One of the greatest stories this year was seeing the Saints win the Super Bowl! 

It truly was the year of the “Who ‘Dat Nation”.

Right or Wrong?

 

WFWlogo 

 

WFW6

 

There are many wrong ways to do something:


Indifferently: I have no interest in doing it.


Stubbornly: I won’t do it.


Independently: I’ll do it my own way.

 
Rebelliously: I’ll do the opposite.


Disobediently: I’ll do it, but not exactly.

Slothfully: I’ll do it with as little effort as possible.


Lazily: I’ll do it when I get around to it.


Selfishly: I’ll do it if there’s something in it for me?

Irresponsibly: I’ll let someone else do it.


Negatively: I’ll do it, but why does it have to be me?


Ungratefully: I’ll do it, but don’t expect me to be happy.

(by Roy Lessin)

 

Then there are right ways:


Wholeheartedly: Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men. Colossians 3:24


Joyfully: Serve the LORD with gladness. Psalm 100:2

 
Faithfully: “Well done, good and faithful servant”. Matthew 25:21

Ladies, I’m guilty of all of these wrong attitudes at one time or other in my life.  But my goal is to always do them wholeheartedly, joyfully and faithfully.

Lord, forgive me for the times my heart was not in the task that was asked of me.  Give me the grace daily to examine my heart and do what it takes to make it right before you.  Let my testimony and witness be one that brings glory and honor to your name.
