Good Friends, Good Music, Good Morning

Friday Night was a blast! Sarah's cousin Beth had never been so we took her on TWISTER first
...then THE MUMMY!
That is my favorite ride...it starts out like Pirates of The Caribbean, it then reminds me of The Haunted Mansion, then it's alot like Rockin' Roller Coaster but it is over too fast!

We then ate at Finnegan's and Tyler ran back & forth between the stages & his food.


As you can see BETH is a stitch & fits right in with our little group! She kept us laughing every time I took a picture with her poses!

After dinner Kristin & I stopped at Starbuck's, I had to have a Pumpkin Spice Latte even though it was about 85 degrees out still.
I have realized I am getting old because all the noise in the lines hurts my ears! Sarah had run to the First Aid to get earplugs for herself & ibuprofen for my headache from the noise of the teenagers in the lines.

There was still an hour to go before the Newsboys took the stage so we headed over to try to get nice & close.....HAHAHAHAH
It was a LITERAL WALL of bodies all the way back to the lighting tent... we found a small area near the middle where we could breathe and maybe do a little jumping.

It NEVER ceases to move me when I see this many people come & worship GOD, multi-generations/race/nationality it is AMAZING!

When they came out on the catwalk to the mini stage we found out we were closer than we expected!

Peter, Paul, Duncan & Jeff

Sarah got one of Duncan's drumsticks after the concert so she & Sahara posed with Peter's cocktail set


I hope to post more later & hopefully add that short vid clip...The glass repair guy is here & I have to elevate my foot since I broke my toe yesterday

GOOD FRIDAY MORNING!!!! Hanna update

Well Hurricane Hanna is on the move and she is avoiding us, PRAISE GOD. Now the folks in the Carolinas look to be in her sights.
She is a little closer than I would like for this evenings events...We have been waiting ALL YEAR for ROCK THE UNIVERSE
Right now we are getting things set up today for tomorrows big Customer Appreciation Crop since we won't be home until after 1am
Moving furniture from the living room into the other rooms so we can set up the tables & chairs since it will be too humid to crop on the lanai. Since I am making lunch for everyone I have been tossing around a few possibilities ... Tropical Chicken Salad or 13 bean Chili... DH has had numerous requests for his WORLD famous Scones so they will have to be baked in the morning. I might need to run to the store to get a few things though all before Piano Lessons this afternoon. Where we will be meeting Sarah, her cousin, my cigar buddy Perry & his wife to caravan up to Universal at 4pm. Deep Breath!

How have you been doing with trying to bless someone each day? I don't know that I actually thought about blessing someone but I hope that just through my words or actions I blessed someone this week. I know a few of you have blessed me in one way or another & I am truly grateful for you in my life.

HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND!

SERIOUSLY?!!! Fixin' & Repairin'

This weekend was spent fixin' & repairin' things around the house....
I don't know if any one thing actually got fixed completely...
1. My car is still sittin' it has something wrong with the transmission & the engine is misfiring.
2. The pool pump is runnin' but on half the suction.
3. The electrical issues are fixed, at least we believe they are seems a bunch of ants climbed into the outlet that the yard lights are plugged into & died from more than likely electrocution. We are hoping this was causing all the other circuits to trip!

Then after that one got fixed the steering on our used riding mower went out...you can only go in a circle to the right....hmmm can you say "CROP CIRCLES" lol

This means we are back to push mowing Mt. Stonehenge in the back now too!

The studio/crop room is almost done though...need to grade school work and then tackle the paperwork piles & my photo mess.

Pray Hannah brings us cool/dry air this Friday Night ... we are going to ROCK THE UNIVERSE if she doesn't hit Florida!

While I haven't heard from anyone what they did to bless another I am still personally doing what I can by giving folks a little extra something..a kind word, encouragement, gifts, help when needed and staying focused on GOD.
