Thanksgiving

The story of Thanksgiving.....

Once upon a time there lived some pilgrims 

They sailed to a place called "Plymouth Rock" on there boat "The Mayflower"  

When they got to Plymouth they were thankful they

 made it safely. So they ate some turkey 

Now we eat turkey like the pilgrims and call it "Thanksgiving". 

The End 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Fun Fact Friday

Did you know..... That out of 39,200 people that attended, 4,225 of them made decisions to follow Christ/recommitted there lives to Christ. At the three nights of the Seattle Harvest Crusade. Plus all the people that attended,162,717 people watched on line. That means that 201,917 people heard Greg Laurie's messages. In my opinion thats pretty sweet!!!

Some of the people that went down on Sunday.

The Life of Chocolate Man

foodI would like you to meet The gingerbread Chocolate Man....

Here is his family... Dad, Mom and sister.

One day he decided to go out and get a tan by the pool.

 

 Then he decided to go for a swim.

But he fell and broke his head.

He lay headless in the hospital.

With his family around him.

Watching him slowly dissolve 

 until he was only crumbs.

 Thus ends the sad life of Chocolate Man.

My Blog Song

 "Blink" 

By Revive 

Teach me to number my days
And count every moment before it slips away
Taking all the colors before they fade to gray
I don't want to miss even just a second more of this


It happens in a blink
It happens in a flash
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there's no stopping time
What is it I've done with my life
It happens in a blink


When it's all said and done
No one remembers how far we have run
The only thing that matters is how we have loved
I don't want to miss even just a second more of this


It happens in a blink
it happens in a flash
it happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight but there's no stopping time
What is it I've done with my life
It happens in a blink


Slow down, slow down
Before today becomes our yesterday
Slow down, slow down
Before you turn around and it's too late


It happens in a blink
it happens in a flash
it happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight but there's no stopping time
What is it I've done with my life
It happens in a blink

I thought this was the perfect song for my blog because it talks about life and how it go's by soo fast. And we don't even relies it in till its already done and gone. Hope you liked it!!

Because if they had not i still would just be a ball of yarn. If i was just a ball of yarn i would not be a guest writer on this blog today and days to come. And i would not have the opportunity to go to the other side of the world in a shoe box with "Operation Christmas Child".

Here are some pictures of me.
