I don’t know about you but I have a list of verses scribbled in the front cover of my bible. These are tried and true verses that have comforted me in the past and I know I will need them again in the future.
This post reminded me of the importance of writing down those verses. Maybe one day one of my children will need and find comfort in those notes I have scribbled down. Check out this post and maybe start your own list:
Below is a sneak peak at some of my upcoming blog posts.
Stay tuned for some more exciting things to come as well!
Have a blessed day!
Hey everyone! I’m slowly getting back to routines and really hope to start blogging on a more regular basis. This move has really been crazy but as things are settling down we are starting to get back to our routines, and changing them as needed.
Just wanted to give you all a peek into our morning routine today and share some of what we’ve been up to. Continue reading “Getting Back To My Morning Routine”
National Ice Cream Day is the perfect day to pull out that old ice cream maker and make a batch of homemade ice cream! Click here to learn more about this holiday. It is celebrated on July 13th.
This might also be a nice day to plan an ‘Ice Cream Social’, where your friends and family can have an ice cream-making competition. Have everyone bring their favorite ice cream toppings, and everyone can make a different flavor too! We had this every year before school started when my older kids were little, and it was SO MUCH FUN!! We also had their birthday parties together at this time… knocking out a few ‘birds’ at a time!
Here are our favorite recipes for celebrating National Ice Cream Day:
Hot Fudge Sundae Cake – so good with fresh homemade ice cream!
Fruit Cobbler with Ice Cream
