Tim and I dropped the kids off on Saturday and the hopped on the ferry to go to San Francisco. We had a great time. We walked to the Coit Tower then to north beach I love Italian food. It was all so yummy. There is this chocolate store which is rated top ten in the world for truffles. It was the best truffles I have ever had. yummy Then it was off to Pier 39 (lots of walking) It was great. We spent Sunday in the Napa area looking at all the beautiful gardens at the winery's. There is the Italian deli in Napa, yummy. I had a grilled eggplant with prosciutto and mozzarella YUMMMY YUMMY. We had a beautiful weekend together.

My Honey

Our anniversary is coming in 2 days. It will be our 7 year anniversary. I am thanful that God brought us togother. God is so awsome. He know us better than we know our selfs. He knows the kind of husband or wife we need. Tim is a great husband and father. I am thankful we get to walk this road of life togother. He is my best friend. I am thankful God has given me the opportunity to trust and love some one so much. I am thankful that God has allowed me to be his help mate.

There are days

There are days when I feel
The best of me is ready to begin
Then there days when I feel
I'm letting go and soaring on the wind

Cause I've learned in laughter or in pain
How to survive

CHORUS
I get on my knees
I get on my knees
There I am before the lord
That changes me
See I don't know how
But there's power
When I'm on my knees

I can be in a crowd
Or by myself almost anywhere
When I feel there's a need
To talk with God He is Emmanuel

When I close my eyes
No darkness there
There's only light


I get on my knees
I get on my knees
there I am before the lord
that changes me
See I don't know how but there's power
In the blue skies
And in midnight
When I'm on my knees

CHORUS

A Prayer

A Prayer
by Katherine Kehler
Lord, little by little You are getting through my befuddled mind to teach me another practical concept about living a life pleasing to You.
Lord Jesus, I know You said that in this world we would have troubles, but for some reason, I really thought there would be fewer problems as I aged. That I would become wiser. But life becomes more complicated.
I wonder, Lord, is it because You need to constantly remind us that this earth is not our home…that we are heaven bound?
So many times I forget that people, circumstances or things cannot give me happiness; only You can. I realize now that my discouragement can be because of the lack of trusting You.
This day, Lord, I pray that You will enable me to trust You each time a problem arises. Whenever I get stressed, remind me to turn my eyes on You and Your sufficiency.
My help comes from You, Lord.
Amen.

My Tribute

How can I say thanks
For the things You have done for me,
Things so undeserved,
Yet You gave to prove Your love for me.
The voices of a million angels
Could not express my gratitude.
All that I am and ever hope to be,
I owe it all to Thee.

To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.
With His blood He has saved me,
With His power He has raised me,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.

Just let me live my life,
Let it be pleasing, Lord, to Thee,
And if I gain any praise,
Let it go to Calvary.
With His blood He has saved me,
With His power He has raised me,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.

To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.
With His blood He has saved me,
With His power He has raised me,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.
