Mrs. Renfro's "Smoky" Roasted Salsa

Sometimes God blesses us with little gifts of joy. I received one such gift when I first tried Mrs Renfo's "Smoky" Roasted Salsa. It was love at first bite!

Yeah I've got a new domain name jamileigh.com (Thanks Amy!)
So I may be short on posts for a little while. I've already moved all my infinitelyblessed posts to the new blog but their all jumbled us so I have to individually go in to each post and change the dates. I'm still working on links and categories as well. If you want to preview this work in progress head on over to jamileigh.com

I'll continue to post here till that site is up and running and I'll make the grand opening announcement here.

Hooray for Kurt

My Hero! My Man!
Kurt fixed the AC yesterday afternoon. The $60 guy who came last week to look at it said it would cost $580.32 to fix it. Knowing that the guy already cost $60 bucks I then had a remaining .32 cents allotted in the fix the AC fund. Kurt used the info received by the $60 guy added it to his own ingenuity and now I have a nice cool house. All it cost me was a cold glass of ice tea. Those of you who know me well know that I detest the heat. Can't stand it! Anything over 72degrees and my ankles start to sweat. So therefore as I sit in my comfortably 71 degree house I hearby dub today as "Kurt Day" Kurt, King of the fix it.

Ice

Look what I found in the freezer! When reaching in to get some ice for Kurt's tea I found some for me instead! A nicely wrapped little silver box was waiting for me there.

Thanks Kurt!

Married 10 years!

Happy anniversary Kurt, I love you!

Go Red

Yeah! I got my red dress pin today! Actual I got two, Nae you'll be getting the other one. The red dress is to raise awareness of women's #1 killer- Heart Disease. While the pin is suppose to symbolize "women's power over this devastating disease"
I really wanted it because it is so cute!

Mister Rogers' Neighborhood

I love this! The kids found this site and shared it with me. You get to visit Mr. Rogers' house. You can go to the Neighborhood of Make-Believe and visit Prince Tuesday, Lady Elaine Fairchild and all their friends. Even Picture Picture works, you can click and watch how to make crayons. Go to the kitchen and feed the fish and find all kinds of fun activities. Mr McFeely or Queen Sarah Saturday will read you a book. fun Fun FUN! There is a song list, where you can listen to favorite songs from the show. If you grew up in watching Mr. Rogers you have got to check this out!

(It is interesting that the kids found this site on the same day that I wrote about missing Mr. Rogers, I hadn't even mentioned it and they haven't seen the show in years. Hmmm.)

I am from

I am from coffee in the morning, from sitting in the backyard reading my Bible.

I am from the small town, a little brick house, with a flag proudly waving out front.

I am from picking daisies, and rolling down hills of freshly cut grass.

I am from the heart of unconditional love, A Father's grace and a Son's sacrifice.

I am from the short people and the soft ones.

I am from you don't have to eat beets or beans.

I am from twins working together to reach a light switch, cooperating, celebrating.

I am from little sisters growing up and singing big.

I am from the mountains and the flatlands, the country and the city.

I am from cousins and circuses on swing sets.

I am from cattle guards, gravel roads and chicken yards.

I am from hearing the bell ring and running home for dinner.

I am from Chinese jump rope, Pogo balls and four square.

I am from school busses, cruising main and Loaf n Jug.

I am from big letter jackets smelling of sweet cologne.

I am from high school sweethearts, class rings and wedding rings.

I am from big bellies, little babies, and soft blankets.

From dirty hands, sticky kisses and sidewalk chalk, three little blessings.

I am from Sunday school, pizza after church, and an afternoon nap.

I am from old friends, missed friends and new friends.

I am from phone calls, emails, and dropping by to say hello.

I am from never being alone, always having family, always being loved.

I am from comfort and protection, cared for and needed.

I am from a hard workingman who comes home dirty and cleans up nice.

I am from freshly brewed ice tea and burgers on the grill.

I am from living a dream, and dreaming for more.

I am from little girls with brown hair, and little boys with blond.

I am from missing teeth, ribbons, bows, cub scouts, cars, bugs and tutus.

I am from Sesame Street, Veggie Tales and missing Mr. Rogers.

I am from every day miracles, hugs from little arms and hugs from big strong ones.

I am from Faith, believing in my God, and knowing him more each day.

I am from remembering 4-19-95 and 9-11-01. Ribbons worn, flags raised and lives lost.

I am from protecting the innocent, living strong, fighting for freedom and a soldier’s sacrifice.

I am from the smell of rainy mornings, and the sound of stormy nights

I am from standing firm, defined values and no compromise of morals.

I am from cuddling up with a good book in front of a warm fire.

I am from a new box of crayons, and the first day of school.

I am from hope and not pain, faith and not fatigue, trust and not dismay.

I am from all of you.

I first got the idea for this at The Happy Husband
