The Family continues to grow....

On the 17th of June we had a new addition to the family. Her name is Amanda Dawn(Youngblood)Jurrens. My son Aaron and Amanda are back from their Honeymoon in Mexico and living the dream. All of us are so happy for them and pray for God's Blessing on their marraige.

Summer Weddings

In just a few days my Pastor will be getting married. I am so excited for him and his bride to be. It's been a long time since I've seen him this happy and relaxed at the same time.

And if that wasn't enough, my son is getting married the week after!

Our Pastor has been part of our family and especially in the lives of my four kids. He didn't want to miss out on the wedding of our son, just as our son didn't want to miss out on his big day too!

Congratulations, and God's Blessing to Pastor Steve and my son Aaron and their Brides!

Is God Almighty?

Oswald Chambers is one of my favorite reads.

He was sharing about giving God credit for being Almighty.

I have to confess that believers in Jesus get the doing of whatever we do ahead of asking Almighty God what He wants us to do (myself included).

Is God Almighty in your life?

Mission Accomplished!

Hooray,

We completed our Kitchen Re-do before the 4th of July fesitivities. I can hardly believe it only took about 3 weeks time.

It's that time of year again to start getting ready for Vacation Bible School, or as we affectionately refer to it as VBS.

I'm putting on my "Thinking Hat" to come up with a plan to make props needed for this years theme " High Seas Expedition".

Hope your summers is going great!

God Bless

Grouting 101

Grouting is the finishing touch that makes everything look professionally installed. We're quite happy with the way it looks. We began this morning and were finishing just in time to go to work!

Kitchen Backsplash, etc.

During the past couple of days my daughter and I have been working on a little (ha, ha) kitchen project.

At first it was to be a little bit of paint. Then it was to be a little hardware. In the end it will be paint, hardward (hinges, handles, etc.), and tile.

We put up tile on Wednesday, and I put some more up today before coming to work.

It's going to look very nice when it's all complete.

Just and FYI. My daughter said the DIY network was really good for something.

Hopefully I can get some pictures posted!

Mobile Welding Shop

On Sunday I was talking with my brother in law about how to modify his trailer for his son.

We were mulling over the idea of putting a welder with a generator over the axles of the trailer and putting small RV type doors on the side to pass through the welding torch and be able to make adjustments for the welder.

As we kept going with this thought we talked about making a small sleeping quarters in the rear of the trailer with A/C and other conveniences :0) (his son lives in Arizona).

Then one last idea came to me of putting an awning on the side of it with a welding table that you could be open and close too.

Just another DIY idea of mine.
