domestic day...

i had the most fun hanging around the house today than i have had in a while...i chopped up a flat of strawberries and used half of them to make 5 quarts and 3 pints of strawberry jam. i can't wait to try some tomorrow on my toast. Yum... my favorite!!! i tried making jam two years ago and it didn't work so well so i crossed my fingers and this time it worked so i have LOTS of jam to eat. :)

after i was all finished i managed to hang up all 16 pictures up on the wall that has been so bare. little by little our house is feeling more and more like a home. all i have left to do is to print new pictures and put them in the empty frames.

tonight after my hubby got home from a meeting i let him relax for a bit and then we decided to get KFC since its been a really long time since we've eaten there. it wasn't the greatest and they are getting picky about their portions so....yea... but it was fun to get out. after that we went to books a million. he loves to look at books and i love to check out the decorating magazines. i have lots of great ideas of things to do and inexpensive ways to do some decorating. it was a wonderful day and i am feeling so refreshed for the week. i think God knew i needed to be so refreshed especially before these next few crazy weeks. this week i have no office helpers and next week is missions week. i am excited to have some friends come into town for missions week. that's one of the neat things about being in ministry and having some of your closest friends in ministry too..
