31 Days of Random Thoughts - day Wha???

So I fell off the bloggin' wagon. I guess this is supposed to be Day 14... so I will just start from here. I had the most amazing girlfriend getaway trip last weekend. Sitting on the beach for hours with no one interrupting my peace was....peaceful. I had such a relaxing time. Plus, I was in great company with 5 other mommas! Great girlfriends are a blessing. People come into your life for a reason and I am sure last weekend imprinted something unto every one of our hearts that will serve us in the future. Even if it is just a chuckle about a funny story from the weekend. We got to see both of our parents this week, so that was a real treat. I wish the grandparents lived closer. Raising kids without a family support system in this city is rough. I had to play catch up on my Bible study this week since I have gotten behind. We are working through Beth Moore's Patriarchs study and ohhhhh, it is good. The book of Genesis has never been so dramatic and entertaining....and convicting. A stirring thought.... Many times the bible refers to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. By looking at our own lives, would people say that they want to worship the God of __insert your name? Hrmph..... I crossed a baking milestone this weekend. I made a 4 layer pecan pie cake for my hubby's birthday. It turned out beautiful and I was very proud that I didn't burn it.
