Verse 08 and other things great!

Wow! When I look at the date of the last post I am embarrassed and ashamed! So much has happened and so many things to be greatful for!

C and I made it safely back to Dover, DE and we brought a little friend with us. (Remember that surprsie I was hinting at a few posts ago?) HERE HE IS!!! This is Harvey!

 

He has been just a ball of fun since we brought him back. A great companion for me while C is working during the day, and a pleasant distraction from my school work. 

This past weekend we invited my in-laws and grandparents to our tiny apartment for a birthday dinner! C and his dad's birthday are just today and tomorrow and it was fun to celebrate together and be the hostess for a change.  I made this delicious orzo pasta! Another great one from Rachael Ray

I would have loved to take step-by-step photos in our new kitchen but with all the people here I was a bit of a Martha, not a Mary do you get the Bible story reference) (also this is something I'm working on, don't hold it against me). Anyway, the link to Rachel's website give s a great easy to follow video for your viewing pleasure!

Also I owe you all a new verse. Verse 07 seemed to hit me right between the eyes so many times these last 2 weeks. I'm so glad to be doing this memory challenge and really amazed at how much my life can change simply by digging into the Scripture. For verse 08 I started thinking about all of the birthdays coming up of some very important people in my life! My husband, father-in-law, and sister Natalie will all have brithdays in the next two weeks and I am just so greatful for them and the Creator who brought them into this world. So here goes...

Revelation 4:11 Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created." ESV
