12 Super Time Saving Tips For Mom. February Review

I'm really excited about this review!! This review for February is called 12 Simple time saving tips for

Moms. We all know that family can keep you busy. Whether it is homeschooling, prayer time or Soccer practice. We all need time saving tips to get everything done that needs to be done!

 Personally the areas I need help in are meals and scheduling. It is hard keeping a family on a schedule right now. Not only do I have a family schedule. But we also have my husbands elderly parents living with us. I juggle 2 schedules. One for my own family, and the other is for my elderly in-laws who live with us.

I prepare meals and menu planning. However settling on a time to eat as a family is another problem. I have picky people and I have special diets because of health issues. So planning a meal can seem impossible at times. What one can have or like might be something the person on a special diet cannot have. The other problem is settling on a time to eat together as a family. The older members like to eat early. While the rest of the family prefers to eat later.

After listening to  these wonderful tips I know we will come up with a Godly solution!

I encourage you to listen to these wonderful time saving tips. Listed below is the link to download 12 Super Time Saving Tips For Mom.

Eternal Encouragement-Organizing Happiness

 It's time for me to share about one of my Eternal Encouragement experiences. I received the January newsletter in my inbox and opened it up to read. I'm Excited and I hope you will be too.. Enjoy!  So today I will share the e-book Organizing Happiness.

 I have heard it said that “7” is God’s favorite number. God never stated this unequivocally but there are more than 700 references to the number “7” in the Bible. From the Seven days of Creation to the Seven Days of Revelation, Scripture is saturated with the number seven. In fact, to even attempt to list all of them would require … seven pages!
 Of course there are some more things that support “7” as a special number. God said it takes seven times seven to repair our wrongs. He created seven main planets and He created the universe in seven days. And of course, you’ve heard of the seven Gates of Heaven and “Seventh Heaven.

”I hope that you enjoy this little book of “sevens” and that you are blessed by it seven times seven.
 Mrs. Lorrie Flem

 I learned a lot be reading this book. I'm pretty good at organizing.. But There is always room for improvement. I keep up with 2 households mine and my in laws. My husband and I take care of his elderly parents. I am organized  most of the time. We have gotten appointments mixed up, forgotten. prescriptions lost or not refilled. We have all been there. But we have come along way too!..

“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Acts 2:21

 We have no reason to be discouraged or fear! God Himself will help us with the training, education,
and creation of new habits in the lives of our children and ourselves – habits that will last a lifetime
and make you happier!  Mrs. Lorrie Flem

 This book is a very helpful tool for Women and there families. The tips on creating new habits and getting rid of old habits will make all of us Happier!! I encourage you to download this helpful book.

December/Janurary

Our Christmas was good this year. We Started off celebrating Dutch Christmas with Steffon's  Parents.(His Mother is Dutch). It is also  Sarah's Birthday.. It was double parting!!! Then came pulling out all the stops decorating for Christmas. We try to make every holiday as special as possible for Steff's
parents(whom seem to be getting older faster).
New Year came with a bang! We celebrated at home with good food, family and some movies. Now that the New Year is here. We the are excited to see what the New Year will bring !

October/November

AWWW.... Nice Cool Weather . Perfect for Ghosts,Monsters,Turkey and Dressing. This is our favorite tie of the year. This is the time when we enjoy warm bread from the oven. Maybe cuddle by the wood burning stove.
I better stop there! We recently enjoyed a little trip to the pumpkin farm. It was fun!! We stuffed a scarecrow, and picked out several pumpkins for carving. See pictures below. If you want the address sent me an email and I will send you the link. I will post more pictures as I download them.

August 2011

We are having a blast! We started volunteering on the Austin Steam Association every other weekend. It is a fun way to spend a weekend!

Starting in  couple weeks we will also be volunteering at the Baptist Children's home. Sandra will be baking and Steffon will be doing electrical and building maintenance.  We hope to enjoy this as much as we enjoy Austin Steam Train.

Our garden did not survive the heat this year. But at least it lasted till the end of July. Sandra is looking into getting a hoop house kit so that we can start the garden during the winter and have it finished by early summer.
