Well we passed out lots of candy and most definitely lots of C3 cards with the candy. It was actually fun...I mean fun besides Princess barking with every ring of the doorbell! :) She had a blast, too though. All the kids loved watching her bark in the window while waiting for us to answer the door. I have to say I am proud of Matt...He hasn't eaten very much candy at all! For those of you who know my husband know he has one huge sweet tooth, so for him to have not eaten much is an accomplishment.
Now I just wish I could breathe...but it has still been a great day!
Happy Candy Day to everyone :)

Random...
Okay so I can't take the weather anymore. My allergies are getting so bad that I can't breathe, can't see because my eyes keep watering, and it feels like there is a weight on my head because of the sinus pressure.
...I think I'm just a little grumpy because I didn't do so well in poker tonight. I have to say, I'm not a fan of losing!
I should probably just try and get some rest...I think it's time for some Office DVD's to cheer me up and help me forget about the whole not being able to breathe thing :) I think I'll watch one of my favorites...check out a little bit of it.
Laugh Away! :)

Candy Craziness
Today feels like Monday for me. I left work yesterday because I had one of the worst sinus headaches I have ever had. This weather change all the time is killing all of us with allergy problems! I'm feeling a little better today...I loved the sunshine for a little while this morning. It hasn't gotten too hot lately so that is wonderful :)
I am excited about Halloween tomorrow. I normally don't care but I am loving the little C3 children's ministry cards we'll be passing out with our candy. That is such a great idea! Of course, it has to be used properly. I hate hearing stories of Christians who leave a track instead of a tip at restaurants. I'm thinking if I don't know Christ and I just waited on these people and they left me a track instead of a tip...I would be kind of irritated! I'm sure they'll have a great view of Christ from that person who wasn't kind enough to leave any tip at all...but a little book that they will probably throw away out of anger!
It's just like when I get those tracks or track like things on my car. Okay...it is really frustrating when you get stuff like that on your car, don't notice it and start driving with it on your windshield. That is what I love so much about C3. C3 doesn't want you to pass out cards instead of candy...they know those will just end up in the garbage...what little kid wants to read a card instead of candy!
I'm hoping we get lots of kids...I have lived in an apartment for the past 4 years so I haven't had any trick or treaters...we finally live in a house so hopefully we'll get lots of them! We really wanted to dress Princess up...they had the funniest costume at target for dogs...it was a lobster costume! :) I guess I couldn't justify spending the money for her to sit at home and bark when the doorbell rings. Which she will be doing...every time.
Anyway...enjoy your Halloween!
Hope everyone has a great Tuesday!

Rainy Saturday
It's so rainy today...It makes me want to just stay in and watch movies. Unfortunately, the laundry is calling my name. I absolutely love the cooler weather. I wish it would continue to get cooler and then eventually snow. As you can see I am living in a fantasy! :)
I am getting so excited for Thanksgiving. I love being around family and it will be especially nice this year since all of our family is coming to Orlando to visit us. Normally we are the ones doing the traveling.
I am also excited for tomorrow...Dirty Little Secrets seems to be really speaking to people and I'm sure it will do the same tomorrow. I love C3 and the people that I see there every Sunday who are so positive and excited about C3's future.
Anyway...In honor of Christmastime coming soon and my love for the movie Elf, I posted this video. :)
Happy Saturday!

Funny Friday!
The show was great last night...My favorite thing was Andy trying to figure out the: "Break me off a piece of that fancy feast!" I loved that no one would tell him!
I love The Office!
Laugh Away!

Lyrics that Inspire
I love this song and it encourages me in so many ways. It reminds me constantly that He is always there no matter what!
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know you are near
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth
Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You
It is amazing to know that He truly will never let go!
Have a happy Thursday!
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know you are near
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth
Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You
It is amazing to know that He truly will never let go!
Have a happy Thursday!

Worth Fighting For...
Today has been a good day...A Happy Wednesday as Angie would say! =) By the way...her last post was hilarious! You should check it out here.
I went to work and then spent some time with my wonderful best friend Kayleigh. It was great. I love hanging out with her because she is someone I can be myself around and talk to about anything... She is the kind of friend that would not only not judge me for being crazy (if ever was...but you know, I never am!)...she would be crazy with me! She is also my permanent decorator. =) It is such a blessing to have wonderful friends you can be around and feel comfortable with. Friends that you can always be honest with and that you know won't judge you...no matter what. That 'no matter what' is a big deal. I am realizing more and more how much that unconditional factor is huge. You can have so many 'conditional' friends. They are only friends with you while it's convenient for them...but once it gets slightly inconvenient they bolt faster than you can blink. Those unconditional friends are so incredibly rare. You have to hold on to those people and fight for those friendships...you can't let those go even if you go through tough times.
I am so thankful for my friends that would fight for me, too. I am thankful for their love for me and their honesty with me. I am also thankful for C3 and how they are willing to fight for people. They will fight for all those lost people who feel so disconnected with church and church people. They will fight for that one person who had that bad experience and doesn't want church in their life anymore. They will fight always. I love C3...and I love my friends. All willing to fight and most definitely worth fighting for.
Fight for Love.
