Zach is starting on his 8th grade team this year.  I am working with my camera, trying figure out how to get the best pictures... They have had two games so far.  Won one and lost one.

*************************************

I finally finished my kitchen cabinets!!!!!  It's only taken me two and a half months!  It has been the topic of many a Tackle it Tuesday Post!

AFTER, FINISHED!!  DONE!!  WHOO-HOO!!!!

There is a hope of new countertop coming soon!  A friend has offered to purchase and install one for us! 

*************************************

It happened again.  I was sure that my electric bill was late and overdue.  I got the bill yesterday.  When I opened it, it showed a credit!  Someone has paid my bill!  Over two months worth!!

ARE YOU PRAISING GOD WITH ME!!??!!!!!!!!!!

***********************************

My child who was struggling a few days ago, seems to think that the situation is resolved... I doubt it.  But, we'll keep walking through and prayin...

I plan on visiting a new preschool with Kiahna next week.  She is doing pretty well.  Believing for miracles. 

Meanwhile, we are working on redoing her hair.  It has never been such a long process for me.  One braid at a time.  I am not even going to tell you how long some of these braids have been in... uhg.

*****************************************

I can't make any promises on how much time I'll be having to blog this next week.  My sister's wedding is next Saturday... so besides, Thanksgiving, 2 basketball games, helping her move, finishing these braids, oh and let's not forget taking some time to just be quiet... yeah... I may see you next week... or maybe not!   But, the week after, I hope that I will have lots of great moments to share with you all!!

Looks great! I think we have the same exact stove. ;o)

I couldn't braid well to save my life.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving, if I don't hear from you by then.

Love the "round the house" idea. How awesome to accomplish your kitchen cabinet goals! Way to go! I will be praying about the preschool search. And I hope this can be a joyous week of celebration.

Nice looking kitchen. I have red walls too.

Oh and I am having a heck of a time getting good basketball pictures. they are either blurry or too dark. But I am still trying
