Joy in the Morning...
We have WATER!!!!! Wahoooooo! Man do I find myself enjoying the small simple things in life more and more! Our water is running and it is warm outside! I never thought I would be happy to look at my weather app and find that our high is 37 today! It's snowing and I just am happy! I get to do my dishes and take a shower today. It's like Christmas! We also got good news.... We are on the road to buying our first home! I know God is in control and I can't wait to see where God takes us. He's got a plan for us and I can't wait to see it unfolded! Oh man, I'm overwhelmed!!! Thank you Lord! All things work together for those who believe.

Thankful for All blessings
I've really been thinking about life and the many blessings God has bestowed upon my family. I am so thankful for my hardworking husband who goes every morning and works very hard in negative degree weather so we can have a life and get our bills paid. It makes me so proud when I hear my husbands boss's brag about his work ethic!!! He's pretty awesome. I am thankful for a warm home even tho right now it is an RV and here is no running water. I am thankful for the new friends I have met in the past year. They are blessings and make life fun!! I'm thankful for the men that believe in my husbands abilities and challenge him to grow and expand his capabilities. I am thankful for a church that shares the love of God to this area and makes you feel welcome. I am just thankful for life everyday. I can't wait to see what God has planned for us in the next couple of months. He is at work and I love when he is in control!!!

Oil Patch Winters
This past week has been a week of character building! We found out that our RV parks sewer system froze completely causing our system to freeze. It them backed up into our bathroom. Luckily we caught before it had a chance to ruin anything! We then proceeded to I thaw out our lines and ended up wearing anything liquid that came out! Not an experience I would like to live again! My husband got our water unfrozen just to have it freeze again. We bought a $100 heated hose for his winter and t has yet to work like it is suppose to. Life in an RV is rough, bt we are so thankful for a place to live. The good Lord has kept our electricity on and kept us warm. Friday we had a blizzard all night long and it got down to -19 degrees. Talk about cold. The wind was bowing at about 35-40 mph and the snowing was coming down sideways. We had crazy snow drifts the next day. Today it is 3 degrees but feels like -10. Our lo tonight is -13. Winter time in a RV is crazy. I will never take running water or the ability to flush my toilet for granted again. I pray God provides a house for us soon so my husband does not have to worry about me at home while he is working. I would love to have his stress cut in half! God has a lot of things planned for us this year and I am so excited to see his plan unfold! He is the ultimate provider and He Is Good ALL the Time!!!!!
