Holiday world and Campmeeting!!!! (What a combo!)

Well this post is going to be the events of our last 2 weekends. They have been some of the greatest for Jonathan and I. Well June 15 (Friday) as soon as I got off work we headed to Southern Indy and spent the night in a nice hotel. Then got up to a hot, humid day to spend it at Holiday world. We had a blast. Even with the heat and the long lines....but the free drinks were great even though we really limitied ourselves to just water and not soda. I think the Voyeger rollar Coaster got the vote for the best ride. It was a 1 min 58 sec ride. (I never thought a rollar coaster could be long enough, but this was on the verge of being to long. But awsome ride with TONS of drops.) The Raging Rapids was quite cool. Jonathan seemed to be getting the wet end of the ride until we came to a water fall. We both were waiting for it to turn off as we inched closer. Finally it turned off as we headed underneath and then suddenly with out warning as I was to go under it TURNED BACK ON!!!!! I was soaked!!! I was very thankful for the "Knee-length" thinner material skirt I w0re. (As only a holiness girl would know trying to manuver in a long wet jean skirt is quite uncomfortable not to mention hard to do.) But inspite of looking like a drowened rat...it made the day cooler for a hour our two. I also learned that I may be getting older for some of the rides. I love all kinds even the ones that spin you around and around. I had decided to eat ice cream before going on one....Don't think I will ever do that again. I about embarassed myself!!! It was a wonderful day for both Jonathan and I.

The Legend the other great rollar coaster

The Voyeger!!! Great ride. There was at least 2 of the size of drops!

After we left the park we both failed to realize that we were low on gas. When we did we thought we could make it to the next exit....all the sudden that nice little ding rang. We saw an exit that had a sign beside the exit with a gas tank. Thinking there would be a gas station real close we took the exit quickly. Much to our dismay the only thing we saw a small country store that looked run down with a lone pump out front that looked as in sad shape as the store. Jon thinking "Oh there will be another one,"continued to drive. Well we saw more beautiful countryside in southern Indy, then I cared to on an empty tank of gas. Almost 20 miles!!! I don't think he and I ever prayed so hard for Gas!!!!! LOL (no pun intended) Finally we saw this sight!!! Thank God for Marathon. I told my husband I am Putting this on the blog. He just laughed at me and told me, we must have really needed a lesson on FAITH!!!!!

June 23- Jonathan woke me up and told me he had a suprise for me. We were going to camp for the weekend. I was so excited!!!! So after work we headed for Frankfort....we indulged in some great Ice cream treats at DQ. We had a wonderful evening just talking at DQ and then we headed to bed....the next morning we went shopping and enjoyed a good Breakfast at Golden Corral. Then the rest of the afternoon RELAXED!!! It was wonderful. Then finally we headed to camp. Bro. Jon Parker preached a great message. One of the best I have heard for a long time. (but more on that later) I was able to see Janae who is really turning into a beautiful young lady. She has been like a little sister to me. You can see she is not so little anymore. Basically my height, since I have heels and she doesn't. Sunday was full of good memories and the wonderful presence of the Lord being felt. I love Campmeeting!!!!

Thank you hubby for 2 wonderful weekends!!!! I love you so much! Thank you for working so hard to make these special weekends happen. I love the good times I have with you.

Happy Fathers day.

Daddy's little girl, is how I have always been. I get my dad's funny sense of humor and his socialness with people without a doubt!!! I remember so many memories of going out on "Little Dates" with dad. I remember one....He took me ice skating, I was really nervous, because I had never been but once I got on the ice I gained confidence. (although you would never know it now with how my ankles shake. But after 2 ankle injuries that will happen to you.) Dad on the other hand took a few steps and BOOM was down on his rear. (Looking back now, I wonder how long he Felt that fall) Also daddy's snickerdoodles and how we were always excited to have hamburgers when mom was gone. Daddy, I love you very much thank you for doing your best to raise me in the way of "God and Holiness" You will always be my hero. And it is true, "the first man a little girl ever falls in love with is her Father!!!" All my love to you on this Fathers day!

Pops- you have been the best father in law a girl could ask for!!! You were a good father to Jonathan too from all that he has told me. Thanks for just taking me in as a daughter and for being so caring and loveing to me. You will never know how much I appreciate your love. Thanks for being there. LUV YOU!!!! The best fathers day to you. I hope to make lots more memories with you and your family.

What can BROWN Do for you???

Jonathan finally got a driving job!! He is considered a "Swing driver". Which means he basically covers the drivers vacations. He says it is the hardest job he has ever had. But I think after he is used to the long hours and remembering all the roads and such he will be fine. (I think he is a cutie in his uniform!!) LoL

My HERO

Staff Sargent Raymond E. Colllingsworth
Fought in the Korean War 1948-1949.
I believe he was a radio operator, apart of the 7001 Army service unit.

He also worked at the Pentegon Building in appox 1951.
He was awarded the "silver star" for bravery and also a
"Purple Heart."

Grandpa was very quiet about his time in the service so very little is known
about his time he served OUR COUNTRY. But I am very proud to have a
Grandfather that proudly fought for our country!!! He was a proud American.
He is greatly missed, but I wanted to give Him honor this Memorial Day, by saying
"Thank you Papaw, for giving your time to help keep me and America Free!!! I LOVE YOU!"

Our baby goose

Our baby goose is getting big. He is not as cute as what he was when he was little. And soon he will look awful, when he looses all of his "baby fuz". This is our 2nd spring to watch a baby goose grow. Pretty awsome watching a baby animal grow. Since I don't have Children yet, I enjoy watching this little "baby goose" grow. Mommy and Daddy are really protective....you get near and "H-i-sssssss"!!! I keep my distance needless to say.

I found this picture, going thru some old ones. I really like both of our smile in it. Just wanted
to say how happy I am with my life with my husband. He is truly my "solid rock"!!! He keeps me steady when I have moments
of being unstable. He believes in me and supports me.
I love you honey!!!

Happy Mothers Day

Well, its mothers day! And I want to send out a happy mothers day to two very important women in my life.
MAMA-I love you very much. You have been a wonderful mother to me. You have so many fine qualitys that I love. I have so many memories of you doing things with us kids, like cooking and coloring....I remember you even taking the time to comb my "barbies" hair with me. You were a very hard worker at school...and I am glad because of that hard work I was able to get a good Christian education. You taught me alot of things, especially about cooking. I know I was underfoot alot but you were always patient and let me make that batch of cookies or brownies. I love you and am glad God gave you to me.

Mom Thompson- You have played a major role in my life the last 6 years (including our dating) I want to thank you for taking me in just like a daughter. You have shown such a love to me. Also thank you for raising such a wonderful son. With your training and teaching, you taught him how to be a wonderful husband to me. I love you Mom.

Happy Cinco-de-Mayo!!!

Our backyard is fairly small due to the pond that is in the middle of our addition. Our house is one of the ones that sits around the pond. Last spring we had the "joy" of watching a goose family. This year we found that a family came back to our pond and sure enough they had a little duckling before long. We enjoyed feeding him bread even though "mommy and daddy" hissed at us at times, but I think they enjoyed the "snacks" too. I will try to keep updated pics on "our baby goose"

This Saturday we had alot of fun. We decided to pick up Jonathan and Caroline Robbins and the guys went shopping/pricing for PA equipment for our church. We girls went shopping!!! Then after that we dropped them back off at home for them to clean the church and mow. When they were done they headed back to our house. We grilled out. Then headed downtown to the Canal. It was a beautiful evening and we had a blast with our friends. We saw several "Prom couples" and we were able to take in part of a wedding ceremony. Me being "Picture happy" had to take pictures, but my battery was low so I didn't take so many. We had alot l fun talking, they ended up staying till almost midnight.

A GOOD DAY

This weather has been totaly awsome! I enjoyed walking downtown doing my court runs, even though it was a bit warm. I can't complain. This evening I headed to Castleton mall and had my monthly or bi-monthly "girls night" out. I met up with Leah Randall, Tanessa and Emma Randall, and Jennifer Glick. Also joining us this week was Natalie Herring and her sister Adrian with her little baby girl. (I can't remember her name) We had a good time talking and just hanging out. We did have to cut the evening short, because we were concerned for Tanessa who is expecting her next baby then end of June. She was in a little pain and none of us really needed anything in the mall. (Imagine: Girls shopping and not needing anything.) I had fun entertaining little Emma who is becoming quite needy right now. I think Tanessa and Ben are in for "the jealous BIG SISTER" syndrome.
Well, I am tired and need to fold more laundry before I go to bed. So "GOOD NIGHT ALL!"

Catching up!!!

I have done horrible the last 2 weeks so I am going to put togather some pictures of what's been going on in Jonathan and I's life.

Chuckie Cheese the Satruday before Easter!!!!

Who is this "Hillbilly?"
(He bought the teeth with his tickets!)

Devan had alot of fun, and so did "the boys"!!!

EASTER

OUTFITS!!!!! Doesn't

Devan look so cute?!

Scrapbook Heaven!

Regi and Jay came down last weekend (April 14-15). Regi and I scrapbooked all afternoon. We had fun sharing ideas and paper and embellishments. Along with alot of talking. Jon camped out in the recliner snuggled underneath his "Colts" blanket. When Jay returned, from helping his parents, we headed out to Don Pablos where "the Hungry Scrapbookers" put away the chips and salsa!! YUMMY!!!IHC week came and we were going to have passangers: Krista and Lacy Crabtree, plus stuff for "Outlook Makeover's" booth. Jonathan decided to rent a car or truck or whatever the thing was. It is a "Jeep Commander", it kind of grew on us both. When we went and picked up Lacy...we met her in front of Cato's. So of course Krista and I had to go shopping. I got a cute blouse and 2 bags of bath and body stuff all for approx $11!! Krista got 2 pair of shoes and an apple sign for her kitchen. IHC was fun....but to short we had to leave Wednesday night. But we really had fun!!!!

In closing I was having fun taking pics of myself. Jonathan says I am "obsessed with myself" when I start doing that. I don't think so I was just having fun. :) Also thanks to my cousine Regi I really SPLURGED!!!!! I made a big thing of PB popcorn!! Oh my, good thing I am not making it for awhile. YUMMY!!! I wish it was CALORIE FREE!!!!

trying to post!!!!

Ok I finally was going to post and show lots of pictures. But NO CAN DO!!!! I keep getting an error message. So no I haven't forgot you all. And I do have pics to share. I have got to get better at this. As of now I am about 2 weeks behinde!!! Silly me. Maybe tomorrow night I will have more luck! I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday!!! Make sure and "Praise the Lord!"

Via Dolerosa

This post I actually wrote back when I was in college. I believe it was spring 2001. One night I was awake with this story in my head so I got up and started writing. I am not much of an English major at all!!! So mind the run on sentences and the poor grammer. This was also inspired by the song "Watch the Lamb" by Ray Boltz and "Via dolerosa" by Sandi Pattie. I felt I would share it in light of Easter.

Take yourself back some 2000 years. Your shopping in a market in Jerusalem. You spot a crowd gathered around a simple man, yet something seems to surround Him. Such love and power seem to flow from the very essence of His presence. You start looking at the crowd. Isn't that girl on His knee Jirus' daughter? You were sure you had heard your wife telling a friend that she had died! A new person joining the crowd catches your attention, and you do a double take. Isn't that the blind man, Bartemeous, who sits at the temple gate begging for alms? Where is his cane and little tin cup? Your curiosity is getting the best of you. Shopping forgotten, you push thru the crowd. Suddenly, you stop short. LEPERS!!! That women at the edge of the crowd, you know she has leprosy, but as you take a closer look--her face, her hands---Clean!!!! Still curious youstop a stranger and ask, "Who is this man? Where did He come from?" "His name is Jesus of Nazareth, a carpenter from Galilee."

As the stranger turns and leaves you scratch your head and wonder, " A carpenter with healing in His hands? Could it be the Messiah had finally come?" As you take those final steps thru the crowd, you catch His words, "Come unto me all ye that are heavy laden and I will give you rest" (Matt 11:28) As the hours pass you find yourself believing what He says, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life."

In the weeks that follow you find yourself following Jesus' path. Your family is with you by this time. The only word to describe your family is "changed", by just a touch of the Masters hand.

Excitement is flowing thru Jerusalem. Jesus is coming!! Palm branches are waving. Your little girls is waving her branch as hard as she can. "Hosannas" are coursing from your lips. You join with the chorus of others singing praises to the Messiah. As Jesus passes by you, on the borrowed donkey, that same look of love and power surrounds Him and now you feel it too!! Oh, how you love Him! He changed you, your family, everything. you owe Him your life. Little did you know that less than a week later you would find your self remembering that phrase.

Later on that day you hear about the disturbance Jesus made in the temple: Casting out merchants, upturning tables, loosing the sacrifices which were to be sold. Your heart goes to your throat. What does He think He is doing? you already know the chief priests and elders dislike Him. What will they do to Him now?

As your family prepares for passover, the news is passed to you that Jesus and his disciples will be meeting together in an upper room for a feast of their own. oh, how you wish you could be in their company.

It was late when you heard a disturbance outside, a group of people are hurrying to the high priest's house. Curious to the cause of the commotion you hurriedly dress and join them. When you arrive you notice the chill in the air and find a place by the fire. "It's Jesus, they have arrested Him!" You are struck with unbelief. NO, Not Jesus, the Messiah, it can't be!" As you glance across the garden you see who you think is...oh whats his name? Peter! Yes, it's Peter. You have got to find out if Jesus is really with the High Priest, but before you can catch up to him, you see him flee from the garden, and were there tears in his eyes?

Confused and bewildered you look towards the door of the High Priest's house just in time to see Him. Suddenly an young, arrogant solider slaps Jesus in the face, another steps forward and spits on Him. Not being able to stand i and to afraid to speak up you turn and run.

The next few hours flow quickly. As soon as it was day you hear He was sent to Pilate, then to Herod and finally back to Pilate. You join the crowd around Pilate's palace. It is a noisy crowd that you meet. some of the same one that shouted "Hosanna" just days ago are now shouting "Crucify, Crucify Him!" you join the small chorus of others saying, "Let Him go, release Jesus!" "Barabas, give us Barabas!" is the louder cry. Your voice is hoarse. You watch in horror as Pilate washes His hands and hear him say, "Take him and crucify Him!" "NO, NO" you scream, "not my Messiah!"

You watch as Roman guards usher away a barely distinguishable man. You turn your head as you catch a glimpse of His back. You had heard about how brutal the Romans could be and now a living example is before your eyes. Torn to shreds by the cat-of-nine-tails causing blood to course down His back and legs. Bruised was His Chest, arms and face, but His eyes still filled with love and compassion, but now you see much pain and agony in them.

You run home to get your wife and children and slowly join the crowd that makes their way to Galgotha. The Roman soldiers push their way thru the crowd as the Saviour of the world struggles with a heavy cross. He stumbles and falls in front of you. You turn to shield your children's eyes from this gruesome scene, when a hand clamps on your shoulder. You turn and find yourself staring into the hardened eyes of a Roman captain. "You, Carry His cross" he snarls!

You go to resist him, as his hand reaches for his sword. Suddenly, you remember your words from a few weeks earlier, "you would give your life for him." You turn and kneel beside your Saviour and lift the crudely made cross from His shoulder and place it on your own. The blood from his body sticks to your robe and trickles down your cheek as you walk down the "Via Dolerosa." (the way of suffering) Tears are freely falling from your eyes as you reach the top of the hill. You are rudely shoved aside as the cross is taken form your shoulders. you catch one last glimpse of Jesus' eyes before you step away from the cross. Still, such love flows from His very being. You want to scream out, "Call your angels to protect you!" But quietly you hurry to find your family as the first ring of steel on steel echoes across the city.

You find your wife and children near the base of the hill. With tears streaming down their little faces the ask, "Daddy, Daddy what are we seeing here today?" As you turn the Lamb of the World is being raised on an old rugged cross and you quietly say, "Children, watch the Lamb."

You stand there for what seems like years and watch the scene unfold, you hear Him pray, you see him cry. Suddenly all goes dark, but it is the middle of the day. Not taking your eyes from the cross you hear Him cry out, "It is Finished!" Beneath your feet the ground begins to shake. An earthquake! As quickly as it came it was gone. Looking again at the cross your heart goes to your throat. "It's over," you think "He's dead! Was I wrong about Him?"

You usher your family away from this scene knowing what is to come. The soldiers will come and take Him down and deliver Him to Joseph's tomb where He will be prepared for burial. You even heard they will be stationing guards to keep a close eye on the tomb. your only excuse for leaving the scene was to prepare for the coming sabbath.

A quiet Sabbath day soon passes, as you begin your week. Your heart still heavy from the memories you are reliving from the short days before. It is still early as your wife returns from the marketplace out of breath and shouting, "He is Risen, He is Risen!" Can it be true? You dare not believe. You rush towards the tomb. Cautiously you look inside the sepulchre. EMPTY! It's true what the angel said, "He is not here for He is risen!"

You start down the road towards your home. Your heart rejoicing! He was the Messiah! No, strike that, HE IS THE MESSIAH, and He is Alive. You know and you believe, because he changed you. As you walk thru the doors of a changed home, you feel this praise bubbling from within your heart and soul...

I believe that the Christ who was slain on that Cross,

has the power to change lives today.

For He changed me completely

a new life is mine.

That is why by the Cross I will stay!

I believe in a hill called Mount Calvary

I believe whatever the cost

and when time has surrendered and earth is no more,

I'll still cling to that Old Rugged Cross.

House Cleaning!!!

I found this on Mark Lowrey's web site and just thought it was funny!!! (Martha, yes I am talking to you again, prepare to shudder.)
10 rules of housekeeping...
"Vacuuming too often will weaken the carpet fibers." Say this with a serious face and shudder delicately whenever anyone mentions Carpet Fresh.

Layers of dirty film on windows and screens provide a helpful filter against harmful and aging rays from the sun. Call it an SF factor of 5 and leave it alone.

Cobwebs artfully draped over lampshades reduce the glare from the bulb, thereby creating a romantic atmosphere. If your husband points out that the light fixtures need dusting, simply say, "What? And spoil the mood?"

Explain the mound of pet hair brushed up against the doorways by claiming you are collecting it there to use for stuffing hand-sewn play animals for underprivileged children.

If unexpected company is coming, pile everything unsightly into one room and close the door. As you show your guests through your tidy home, rattle the door knob vigorously, fake a growl and say, "I'd love for you to see our den but Fluffy hates to be disturbed and the shots are SO expensive."

If dusting is REALLY out of control, simply place an urn on the coffee table and insist that, "THIS is where Grandma wanted us to scatter her ashes..."

Don't bother repainting. Simply scribble lightly over a dirty wall with an assortment of crayons and try to muster a glint of tears as you say, "Johnny did this when he was two. I haven't had the heart to clean it..."

In a pinch, you can always claim that the haphazard tower of unread magazines and newspapers next to your chair provides the valuable Feng Shui aspect of a tiger, thereby reducing your vulnerability. Roll your eyes when you say this.

Dust bunnies cannot evolve into dust rhinos when disturbed. Rename the area under the couch 'The Galapagos Islands' and claim an ecological exemption.

Mix one-quarter cup pine-scented household cleaner with four cups of water in a spray bottle. Mist the air lightly. Leave dampened rags in conspicuous locations. Develop an exhausted look, throw yourself onto the couch, and sigh, "I clean and I clean and I still don't get anywhere..."

Just a note to all "I do keep my house clean, I just don't really enjoy doing it, but love the feeling after it is done. And just so you know I have started spring cleaning my house!!!"

My lil' bro's

This post goes out to my 2 Lil' bros!!! I love you guys! I am so proud of you. After Last weekend seeing you both about your ministry and serving God makes me so excited. I keep you in my prayers.

Brandon, I am so glad to see you serving God and seeing you use your passion of music for God, and also being able to use your love of Graphics to make you a little extra cash. I will be honest if you would have told me that you would be doing all this 10 years ago I would have tried to have been hopeful, but not sure it would work that way. I am so glad that you let go and let God do the work.

Justin, you are the shy one of us three, but I am so glad that God is slowly helping you get out of your shell and be a "Flame" for Him.

As your OLDER Sis, my heart swells when I see you minding God. I cry tears when you feel His blessing. And I say a prayer when I see you struggle. Always know I LOVE YOU both SO much and Will always be so proud of you!!!

Outlook Makeover

Well I got to start by saying I couldn't be more greatful to God for answering so many prayers this last weekend. I will start from the beginng and try to keep it brief.
Back in December my old college friend Krista Mitchel Crabtree called me and left a voice mail and asked me to think about being involved in a teen girls ministry. I promptly forget considering the holiday activities, so then in Janurary she called again. I considered it over the weekend and felt this would be a path that God would want me on. Also my husband began to get excited and throw out ideas. I was thrilled to think that this was something Jonathan and I could do togather. So we decided to meet her and Lacy Crabtree and discuss the details of the upcoming Retreat on Feb 23 and 24. (Also on the board is Jennifer Glick, Jill Murray,and Kim Deaton)
Finally the day came and after much preperation we had 31 girls registerd we had our fist session with Sonya Vernon. From the start the Spirit just set down in our midst....Krista said it was amazing looking out over the crowd of girls with some of their hands in the air and tears steaming down their faces. I think the fact that the male gender was not present, allowed the girls to just let loose emotionally and spiritually and just worship God and open up their hearts to what God would want for them. After a touching message of "A Relationship with God" we had 3 or 4 at the alter. We board members agreed we could leave after the first service and say the Retreat was totaly what we had hoped and prayed for.
The evening progressed with several funny games including: Having to act out a fairy tale, WITHOUT saying a word. My team (THE WONDERFUL GREEN TEAM including: Edna and Elizabeth Hunt, Monna Cole, Whitney and Shannon, Elizabeth Wigger and Shelly Weaver) did "Cinderella" we won 1st place!! Then we had a clothes desinging game, where we were given a bag with fabric, glue gun, sissors and other tid-bits. We could use anything in the bag and also use other things we had on hand but had to get them approved. Our teams were split into 2 teams each. And after we designed our outfit we had to have one of us model our outfit and one read a discription. I was on Green Team 2 , All my girls did great. Monna and Shelly our models where MAA-rvalous!!!
After not very many hours of sleep, we headed into a new day with Speakers:Dalynda Crabtree, Elizabeth Welsh, Pam Kuhn, Rolin Mitchel, and Sis. Cole. Speaking on subject of Beauty, Dealing with past mistakes, what I can do for God, Rejection, Trust, and Living the Christian life. Each session the Lord just seemed to come in such a sweet way. I can't even translate into words how happy I was to sit in the service and see God just move thru the pews.
Fun-could only describe the afternoon activites. The Girls had fun giving each of their team leaders a Makeover with the clothes given to them. I had no idea what I looked like until I saw pictures later. *Grin*
Then it seemed the Devil was trying his hardest to defeat us....by a snow/ice storm come in. Kind of ruined our "Brent Vernon" concert, but we still had about 20 their even after alot of girls headed home. We also were expecting a bigger crowd and along with that extra donations, but God still came thru and we closed the retreat "DEBT FREE" and give Brent a sizeable offering!!! Praise God!!!! My heart is just so full, and I am so excited to look to the future and what God might have for "Outlook Makeover" Please!!! We covet your prayers as leaders and mentors to these girls. Pray that God will give us direction to what we should do. Keep in touch with us and check out our web site.... www.outlookmakeover.com
