It just hit me kinda funny...

Well I was standing, actually, you don't need to know where I was standing... anyway, while standing in this unspecified place I happened to look at the new bar of Dove soap.


And it hit me.

I would never see the measly end of that bar of soap. Atleast, not as a Coughlin.

I almost cried right there in that unspecified place. The Lord, however, gave me the grace not to.

Instead, I looked at the pink brick of cleaning stuff and smiled. The negative would be that I would never see the end of that bar. The positive... I get to work on our own bar of soap with my husband in our house! Wow... with my husband!
I'm so excited to see what the Lord will do through both of us as a couple and as individuals. He is good and directs my steps!

Mmmm good!

I made dinner! Hurrah!
I'm a big girl now! Actually, I'm really trying to improve my domestic skills... so... I'm on kitchen duty... more. Hmmm. I don't know if this was the wisest decision... poor Michael. He doesn't know what he's getting into.

This was Tuesday's dinner:




This is the wonderful seasoning that makes the dinner good.
I was so proud of myself! I even made dessert! Mom's favorite: snickerdoodles. They weren't KF (Katie friendly) but that's ok.
I look forward to cooking in the very near future for my hubby!!!

Bouquet... check! DJ... check! Poison Ivy Shot... CHECK!

Yeah, 6 weeks before the wedding and Gracie has a major case of poison ivy all over her face, arms and spreading to her legs. The maid of honor is in an itchy situation.




Before, She looks so cute!

After,
Ouch!




And to make matters worse, Mom tried home remedies on her...


Please be praying for her!
For I am in a time of life when things change around me. Everything I own or think I have control over I must lay before my Father's feet: my education, my body, my place of residence, my husband, my children.
