Meet the Family

Image
By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Take a moment to get to know us.  
I married my best friend in 2006 on a June day.  

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone? And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.


2015 is here already!   I had not updated the "Meet the Family" section in over 2 years! This blog sure has changed since I started it in 2011.  I do wish I had more time to poor into this blog but at this time I have limited time and I apologize for all my typos! Since the start of my blog we relocated from Wisconsin to Iowa and I went from a stay at home mom to a working mom.   I am a special education teacher so I do still get lots of time with my babies which I treasure.    



1 John 3:18 

Dear children, let us not love with words or 

tongue but with actions and in truth. (NIV)

We welcomed our first blessing in September 2007, Selah came 4 weeks early but she was the best surprise.  We were not planning on getting pregnant so early in our marriage but God knows what is best!  She sure added a ton of joy to this family.  

Selah 3 months old

Selah 9 months old. 

Selah is now 7 years old and enjoys school, being a big sister, singing, and all things girly!   She joined girl scouts this year and still is a leader in our children's program at church.   


Psalms 127:3 

Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a 

reward from him. (NLT)




Titus couple weeks old

Titus loves his pacifiers. Titus is almost 1 and he loves his family, balls, and his blue polk a dot blankie.  


Titus is a wired almost 4 year old boy!   He brings a sense of humor with him where ever he goes.   He is all about super heroes and fighting but he still needs his mama cuddle time.   


Matthew 19:14 

But Jesus said, "Let the children come to me. 

Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven 

belongs to those who are like these children." 

(NLT)

My blog is covered with more family pictures so stay awhile and look around.  Also, my blog is full of life stories, craft ideas, christian messages, encouragement, reviews and giveaways, and PRAISE and LOVE!  
    Psalm 107:1 
    "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever."

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

Win some Sweet Andy's Cookies

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review.  :)  All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review.   About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.”  The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family.  During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income. They did what they could for themselves and their five children but often it was not enough. But there were...
