It is a sunny 50 degrees at my home this morning, the birds are singing in the backyard and squirrels are running along the top of the fence. I am trying to have my morning coffee on the patio, but it is chilly, think I will have to go inside. My thoughts and prayers are with all of those who were in the path of "sandy"

I have a new baby, isn't he the cutest little thing. We have not had a cat in many years, but recently I have been looking for one without knowing that my husband had been doing the same thing, when I found this one on the internet yesterday, I knew he was the one, so I called my husband and told him that I had been looking and found the one I wanted, he was excited and said he had been looking too, so he took off work early and we drove the 80 miles to get him. He is the perfect addition to our family! Today is my also my 1st grandchilds birthday, 15 years ago today I became a grandma! I am so blessed!!!!

Thank God for his protection !

I have to share this with all my blogging friends. A few nights ago my daughter who is a police officer was patroling when for no apparent reason, it was not storming not even raining when a huge tree fell on her car right over the driver side, she was trapped in the car for awhile as power lines were down all around her car and the tree had to be removed in sections, she very calmly called in the incident on her radio,other officers including her husband could not understand how she was so calm on the radio, they have replayed the tape several times and everyone is amazed that her voice sounds so normal. I pray for each of my family members every day and ask for God's protection over them. I knew from the night that this happened that Gods hand was over her, she had no injuries at all! I knew there had to be a reason this happened but had no idea until today when my daughter and I were talking and she told me that the night it happened they were going to be doing traffic stops, I now believe that this is the reason the tree fell on her car at that exact time but did not harm her at all,she was being protected from making a stop that could have been very dangerous. This was also why she was so calm,God was with her in that car that night.Thank you God!

Fall decorating and baking!

It has been 2 months since I posted on here, Summer is over and now my favorite time of the year begins. So much to look forward to. The mornings are so nice , just a little coolness in the air, leaves are starting to fall. I can hardly wait to make a trip to the Georgia Mts. and see the fall colors. Fall festivals all month. I think I will host a halloween party this year, I am so ready to celebrate! Now I am off to catch up with all of you and see what you have planned for this wonderful time of year.
