Got stains? Get Purple Power!

This stuff rocks! It works on just about anything. It works wonders on stained laundry. Ems shirt had paint on it. Yes, she is our artist and even though she has a smock to wear, she doesn't always. But have no fear, purple power is here. When Jesse is cleaning the four wheelers and motorcycles after a day of fun in the mud, it just wipes off after some purple power! For Emilees shirt I put it in a bowl of water and purple power. You don't need too much. I let it soak for a day or so and then laundered as usual! Use gloves when using, it can irritate your hands. Oh and you can find Purple Power at Walmart in the automotive department. It cost $5.00 for that big jug and Its BIODEGRADABLE!!

So who's gonna cut their hair next?

Luckily, Baileys isn't too noticeable! !

Emliees can sometimes be covered by

her longer bangs!

This past week or so, we had 2 hair cutters! Emilee made a nice cut in her bangs, I guess she thought she would try her hand and being a beautician. Well I think she is a beauty school drop out! Then I took the boys to get hair cuts Saturday, and Saturday night, Bailey cut his hair a big chunk, right up front! Then.... Jesse decided to try to cut Em's bangs. So needless to say, We don't have any Nick Orojjos or Paul Mitchells in our family!

Can you help me? Please.

Why do we, as mothers and wifes, sometimes feel that question is too hard to ask? So instead we do all the work alone, complaining aloud as we do it? I find myself doing this all the time, and my husband just says, if you need help, just ask. I of course say, " why do I have to ask for help, why don't you just help me?" It then becomes a battle with frustration, when if I would JUST ASK FOR HELP, I would indeed get it. God wants us to know this with him also! Don't go the struggles alone, ask God for help! Exodus 18:17-18 Moses father-in-law replied"What you are doing is not good." You and these people who come to you will only wear yourselves out. THE WORK IS TOO HEAVY FOR YOU; YOU CANNOT HANDLE IT ALONE. That is so true, and one reason why we have a spouse to help and a loving God to turn to! This one really hit home for me and I will start asking for help! Have a Blessed Day!

I VOTED TODAY!! DID YOU?

Well for the first time ever,(yes I said ever) I voted and I am so proud that I did! This election was really calling me. It was the only one that I watched debates and read up on what was going on. I know as a Christian, this was a very important time to vote. I have said my prayers and cast my ballot so now it is up to the good Lord. He knows what is best! We have to believe that whatever happens, whomever is the next President, God is still in charge!!! He is my commander in chief! God Bless you all and this nation! By the way I am so glad the campaigning is over!!

Easy Fall Decorations

Okay, I got the idea of the plate with the candles and christmas balls from BHG. I of course improvised. I used a pillar candle and added some leaves. Then when it is Christmas, I will change the balls to red and green and change out the candle and leaves. Everything I got to decorate today was something I either had or got at Joanns for 70% off!! It was awesome! Bailey was complaining that we didn't have fall decorations or Thanksgiving Decor. So I got a few things. It was easy and inexpensive. I of course just used candles I already had, that is why most of them are a little worn or warped. :) I also added some leaf brads to the candles to add alittle more fun.

I've Been Tagged!

Okay, Christian tagged me. So I have not blogged in a few days, so I decided to do it.

Seven random things about me.

1. I would rather read a good book than watch TV!

2. I could not live without my internet!

3. I have lived in 7 different States, 9 different cities

4. I really have a mind like a blonde even though I am brunette. (no offense to the blondes)

5. My mother put me in ballet when I was young because I was such a klutz. It didn't work!

6. I clean when I am upset. (sometimes I think my hubby does it just so I will clean!) :)

7. I love making things for my Etsy Shop!
