Sorry for the Blogging Silence

Posted in Greetings

We have been experiencing computer problems left and right for the past year or more and it means that getting on the computer to Blog is almost impossible.  We are working on getting a new computer, but until then blogging will be very spars and sparatic.  Thanks for your patience!  We can't wait to get back to blogging full time and catching up with all our BlogLand Friends!

Once we do get back online full time we will be updating our site more.  So please excuse any "construction" you might see going on here and there!

Christian Love

Been awhile

Posted in Greetings

Wow, almost 3mns since I lasted posted.  Well things have been pretty busy.  Blogging took a back seat to our busy life!

We had a great Christmas and New Years with our family in the mountains of GA.  It didn't snow, but we had flurries and it was COLD!  Just the way Christmas should be!  That coming from a FL girl who has spent many a Christmas is t-shirts and shorts, even gone swimming a few times.

The begining of our new year started out pretty crazy.  Running between SC and NC.  Finally about mid February we slowed down and stayed in SC.  Our Marine started his new job and is liking it for the most part.  He is a little tired with the hours he works and would rather be seeing us more.  But that is Military Life.

Our schooling hasn't changed much.  Pretty much doing the same thing as we have been doing.  Little Monkey is working on learning to write his name properly and he has started adding and subtracting.  He started both of these things on his own and we have just been working off of them.  I love independant learnng and just going with were our kids go.  We are trying to work with Princess JoJo more one on one.  She is having seperation anxiety.  But only at home.  She will glady go to the nursery, but put her down to play while you clean the house, wash the dishes or do the laundry and she will scream her little head off.  She sure does know how to pitch a fit.  This is also what she does if we put her to sleep in her bed.  She is fine in our bed, but she will pitch a good fit if she is put in her crib.  So she is really trying my patience.  Little Monkey is having a problem with being rude and disobident.  This seems to happen when things change with our schedule with Daddy.  So we are working on first time obedience and our manners.

We are getting ready to celebrate Little Monkey's 4th birthday.  I can't believe our little baby is going to be 4.  WOW.  We are also getting ready to celebrate the Death, Burial and Reserection of our Lord Jesus Christ.  This has been a major topic with Little Monkey.  We kid that he is going to be an evagelist with all his deep theological questions.  Things that you don't expect a 3 almost 4y/o to ask you.  But he keeps us on our toes and always has us digging deep into God's word to learn how to tell him about God and Jesus.  Which is AWESOME!

I haven't kept up with anyone while I've been away from BlogLand, so I hope to do so.  Though I'm sure it will take a while to catch up.  Please keep stopping by and keeping posting comments and emails.  I really do try to get to those, even if I don't post!  =)

Our Newest Addition to the Family

Posted in Greetings
Well this weekend we came back with a new addition to the family.  My sister is/was tired of her dog, Bell.  She's almost 3 years old and my sister has had her since she was 8wks old.  She just couldn't take her anymore, so I offered to take her home with us.  So we now have a new addition to the family.  Bell is short for Bellasara, which is the name of the Resort my sister and brother-in-law stayed at for their honeymoon.  She is a Pembroke Welsh Corgi .  They were and are bred for herding on farms but also make great family dogs.  She's the mouth and ears of our watch dog duo, as Camo doesn't usually bark, but just has the looks of an attack dog.  The two of them get along nicely.  Camo has taken to Bell quite well, but Bell thinks Camo is still to much of a pup.  It's nice to have to dogs to help secure our home while Our Marine is here and there!

Off for awhile

Posted in Greetings

Tomorrow my MIL, YaYa, is coming to pick Little Monkey, Princess JoJo and I up from my sister's house.  We are meeting Our Humble lordship in Athens, GA and then going to Dillard for the weekend.  One of his cousins and her family will be meeting us there also.  We are going to do some playing in the creek and swiming hole, work on our barn and field and just play around in the country!  We LOVE it there and can't wait til we can move there in 10 more years!

My goal is to be on here to post at least once a week once we start school.  That way I am keeping up with what we are doing and I can still keep up with others.  So please keep popping in and leaving Comments!

Blogging Questionaire

Posted in Greetings

Friends4Tea's Contest

 

1. How long ago did you start blogging and why did you start?

I started blogging around the end of July this year.  Some other friends had commented about it and I found it to be fun and a great way to meet people!

 

2. How did you come up with your username/URL address?

I had come up with the name MarineMama a little while back as a Message Board name.  My DH is a Marine and I'm the Mama so I just put the two together. =)

 

3. What do you enjoy most about blogging?

Sharing our life with others! =)

 

4. What makes one blog stand out to you from all the others?

Graphics and color mostly.  If a blog is dark in color I tend to pass over it, but if it is bright and cheery I stay around to read!

 

5. On an average how long does it take you to write a post for your blog?

On average about 20mins, sometimes less, sometimes more.

 

6. What has changed in your life since you started blogging?

I have met more Sisters in Christ, learned somethings about homeschooling and homemaking and found a way that I can share the Love of Christ with others!

 

7. Does your family support you (if so how) or do they think you're a blog addict?

Yes, My DH loves that I have found away to share Christ with others, meet other Christian Homeschooling Mama's and "talk" with other women. =)

 

8. Have you ever gotten a negative comment?  If so, how did you deal with it?

Not really a negative comment, but one that I did not appriciate what they had written in their blog and left that link on my blog.  So I deleted their comment and I made a post explaining what had happened and how our family felt about what this person had blogged about, also that posts like that would not be something that we accepted.  I didn't want anyone who might have gone to the link before I caught it to think we believed the way this person did.

 

9.How often do you check your blog for new comments?

I check any time I come on to blog, but here lately with moving in it has been every few days if I wasn't blogging.

 

10. Do you have a blogging tip you can share?

Be YourSelf! =)

 

?Seceret Question?

Do you blog in the morning or night?

I blog mostly during the night lately, but hope to get my schedule fixed here soon so I will do more morning blogging!

Not Sure

Posted in Greetings

I came on tonight and was checking my Blog.  I found a comment from a young person with a link.  I don't know if anyone else read the comments and went to the link.  From what I got of it the young person doesn't like much of the government.  We however don't feel the same way as I believe this young person is trying to come across.  As with everything in life we may not agree with all that goes on in our government, but we LOVE our country and as a family are proud to serve it and protect it in whatever way the Lord calls us to!

 

I was a little affended by this link, so it has been deleted and I just wanted to let anyone know that any comment or link left that is demeaning to our government will be deleted from this Blog!  I hope know one takes this offensively, but we feel strongly in standing behind our government and following the Lord!

 

Deuteronomy 6:24-25 

"And the LORD commanded us to do all these statutes, to fear the LORD our God, for our good always, that he might preserve us alive, as it is at this day.

And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these commandments before the LORD our God, as he hath commanded us."
