It was a Fabulishes Friday!

So much for blogging at night. lol! It is morning again and I just like blogging with my cup of coffee I guess.

Yesterday turned out to be such a wonderful day! I called Sharon to wish her a happy birthday and invited them out for breakfast! We went to their house and Sharon rode with me and Lanny went with Ron. It was so great visiting with her! We went to Big Apple Diner ... which Ron and Sharon had never been to before!! They loved it! I am surprised we ate almost everything (huge portions) because it seemed like our mouths were talking all the time. What I love about best friends... when you get together it feels wonderful... like you just picked up. I think Sharon had a wonderful birthday breakfast!

One thing Sharon and I talked about was mocking God.There were several times in my life I was playing church.... when I was mocking God. They were huge regrets and I always paid for it in the worst way.... but God was forgiving and good. He gave me another chance and brought me back to His loving arms. I wasn't happy during my rebellion... which is what it was. I wanted to do what I wanted to do.... party with friends, close out his voice, fit in with the crowd. Going after things you think will make you happy just because you laugh more and have this false sense of happiness. It is fake. Some things in my life will never be the same and I pay for that... but He will not be mocked. I let God down... and I let people down who were watching my walk with God... and those things hurt me more than anything. People watch you... you are someones roll model.
My life is on track and God has blessed me beyond my own imagination. I have the best husband and a good life. And He alone is responsible. My prayer for you is.... if you are playing games with God and have walked away from his arms and church and you can feel it..... RUN back. And don't look back! Sometimes in life we need to get away from people, situations, whatever it takes to get us away from temptations where we will be playing the games we KNOW God won't put up with....
and we always need to give credit where credit is due! Did Jesus die in your place? Acknowledge it! Give Him praise! Did he change you.... take the change and embrace it! Are you ignoring or throwing away all He has done for you or denying it. Not good. Think about these things.

We went shopping at Walmart after breakfast.... ran into Ron and Sharon there! We laughed! Got our groceries and after we got home Lauren called with exciting news. She was spending the night! So I went and got her, Andrew and Sandy. I am really sad to see the older kids growing up. Mam's house is not fun anymore. It is boring for them. The younger kids still love it. So Andrew only stayed until I took him to Goonies (youth group) but didn't stay the night. :( It happens. I knew it was coming. But I am still a bit sad.

Well... we have a busy day today. After we take Lauren and Sandy home we have to pick up my mom and head to Maple Valley to a family picnic. It is with the DeLay family (cousins). My Aunt Lorraine will be there with her grand daughter Lindsey! So excited to see everyone!!! I worry this will be too much for mom but we will watch her. We will take Aunt Lorraine and Lindsey back to mom's until Wednesday. Pray for mom. She is so wobbly and tired. Pray for strength for today and this week. She has been looking forward to this for soooo long!

Have a wonderful day yourselves!!!! xoxo
