Dandy Doodlez

This afternoon, I had my first visit to Dandy Doodlez in Starkville.  I have wanted to go for awhile, but just never took the time to go.  I went with Joy Bailey, Cheryl Wright, and Brandi Kain.  We had a great time; however, I am such a perfectionist when it comes to that kind of stuff that I was a nervous wreck about it.  Below is a picture of my finished project before it has been fired.  I think it turned out pretty well.  I look forward to going back soon!!!!

Columbus Pilgrimage 2010

For almost 17 years, I have lived in Columbus and almost every year I say that I am going to go to the Pilgrimage, but I never do.  I just never seem to have the time or I just don’t make the time.  That changed today.  Debbie, Carey, John James, and I toured three houses in Columbus.  It was wonderful.  We toured Waverly, Bryn Bella (my favorite), and Riverview.  Riverview has not been on the pilgrimage tour for at least 20 years.  It was incredible.  If you are around Columbus, I recommend that you take the time to participate in the pilgrimage.  I hope that next year I will get to tour more houses.

Relay for Life

On April 23rd, I will be participating in the Lowndes County Relay for Life to raise money for cancer research.  Almost eleven years ago, my mom lost her battle to cancer.  My mom was an incredible woman, who loved life and loved people.  She was one of the most giving women I have ever known.  She was always doing something for someone else.  I am participating in this walk to give back like she did all of her life and to honor her memory.  If you would like to help me reach my goal, please visit my website to make a donation.  Also, if you would like to purchase a luminaria in honor or in memory of someone who has suffered from cancer, please let me know.  They can be purchased for $10 each.

A Night of Worship

Last night, Debbie and I got the chance to go see Kari Jobe at a local church in Columbus.  I am not really sure where I actually heard about Kari Jobe, but ever since I have truly enjoyed her music.  Her music is so worshipful and it touches my heart every time I listen to it.  One of my favorite songs is “Healer”.  It is great to be reminded that Jesus is all that we need.

HEALER
You hold my every moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease

I trust in You
I trust in You

I believe You're my healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe You're my portion
I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus, You're all I need

Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You

Go check out her website, www.karijobe.com.

I recommend all of her CDs (I own them all!).

Here is a picture from after the concert.
