Update: This deal is still working! You can get a free 8 X 10 from Snapfish and pick it up at your nearest Walgreens! Use code WALFREE . Today is the last day for the deal! Amanda had the best idea the first time they had this offer. You can send it to a Walgreens near a loved one and call them to tell them there is a special picture waiting for them. Go to Snapfish , upload your favorite picture, tell them you want an 8 x 10 instead of a 4 x 6, choose the Walgreens and your picture will be ready in a few hours. Now that’s a sweet deal!
Welcome to our New England cottage!
We want you to share in our first real Snow last week! Here is a picture of our new house. When we looked at this house for the first time, God blessed us with a fresh peppering snow. It was really special to get our first snow while living here! (Here is the story of how He gave us our house!) We love our little house and are so thankful for it!
Here is our tree! My husband found our Christmas tree stuff in all our extra moving boxes! Our tree is artificial (shh!) and it’s really only half up, the back is not all there. My husband has major skills! Notice the Texas Star on top. Thankfully, I will always be a Texas girl at heart Ya’ll!
Annie our black lab joining in on the Christmas fun! She was a really good sport!
If you look under the tree, you’ll see this gift. It is one of the most special gifts to me ever, because Landon my five year old made it for me at Awana’s and (was told to) put it under the tree as a surprise for me. I have no idea what it is! I am so excited that he made something special! It also has a bookmark on it that says Jesus is the Promised Savior. Now that is priceless!
My last picture I want to show you is my poinsettia. When I was a little girl, my mom would ask me to get her one every year. It was so special to her. Well this love has carried over and now I ask the boys to get me one every year. This year Logan picked it out for me (on clearance baby)! It is so special!
This is the end of the tour sweet friends! Make sure you head over and check out BooMama‘s tour of homes! Merry Christmas!
Love, BSL

Dear Travis Cottrell,
You are my new favorite singer. I heart your song Jesus Saves. God has used your song to speak to me at least three times now, not to mention jamming out in worship with my kids. My five year old knows all the words and my two year old actually hummed the tune today. Humm. Maybe it’s time to favor a new song on the Ring the Bells Album.

I wanted to share this story:
~The writer would like to be Anonymous~
“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35
About three weeks ago I was walking out of a grocery store and saw a homeless man pushing a grocery cart full of coke cans. I happened to have $100 cash in my purse to do a little Christmas shopping for my kids while they were in school. I had saved the $100 bill for a few months as a Christmas fund, however the minute I saw the man, I knew, I was supposed to give him the blessing. I knew God was speaking, “Will you give all you have with you to this man?” I literally knew I could not leave the area without obeying God’s call and honestly I didn’t want to. I drove around in a circle so I could get closer to him, my heart pounding with excitement. How was I going to give this man the money? I pulled around to another street to get closer to him and ended up pulling out right next to him. I rolled down the window and said “Excuse Me, God would like you to have this.” He stopped, reached over and said the most sincere “Thank you! It was a very special and heart grabbing moment. As I pulled away, I began to bawl like a baby and then I realized why. I was merely giving him financial help, yet my heart yearned to take him home. I cried all the way to pick my children up from school. I knew I couldn’t keep that man or give him all the things he needed so I would have to let go and trust God to provide for him. Through taking my gift, the homeless man had ended up blessing me more than I could have ever imagined. And God knew the whole time that I would be blessed if I just obeyed.
God is so good and I know I’ll never be the same.
If you feel led, leave a comment telling how has God been good to you this holiday season.
