What An Awesome Surprise!!

This Article was published in HSB Friends, News and FUN Stuff

    You know, I *hate* surprises. But some surprises surpass all your imagination. I got one of the loveliest surprises yesterday!!
    The very beautifully sweet Brielle, who we met last month, sent us all presents!! She is the sweetest thing!! She is just too great!!
    She sent Jocelyn, Rachel, Hannie, Lucy and I all these handmade beauties. They are soooo very awesome and lovely and sweet. Each one was made with love and care for each person. She made each of us very "us" gifts. They were totally what we each wanted and liked.
    So wanta know what I got?? A MAKE-UP CASE!! "cause every girl can use one!!", right, Brielle??
How cool is this:

She made me a make-up case. How awesome is that?? It is so totally me too. She sewed a Superman symbol on the front and it's jean. I love jean.

I am just too excited about it. WOW!! I absolutely *LOVE* it!! I can't say how much I really do.
Although today, I have come the a really cool idea. Since I already have this make-up case:

that Jocelyn made for Christmas, I am going to use Brielle's as a clutch. It is the perfect size for my wallet, checkbook, lip color, a pen, keys, and my leather and stick hairpeice (which I adore). The clutch works perfectly!! I have been wanting a small purse to use as I don't have that much stuff anyway to put in it, and Brielle made just the thing.

I am really excited!! I am just thrilled that Brielle made it. She is a wonderful seamstress. I have seen quite a bit of her handywork, and all I can say is WOW!! I wish I was half the seamstress she is and then I would even be good. That is how good she is.
She is so creative too. Look at this card she made me:

It's really cute!!
And she even sent me a little comic that is so totally hilarious!!

Anyway, I think this was one of the best surprises I may have ever received.

I really love all of my blogging friends. They have turned out to be actual friends and I love all of them dearly!!

oh and please pray for me. My allergies have flared up. They are so annoying. I am praying they will be gone SOON!! I need to get back to breathing.
Also, I posted about some really great organic products at My Learning Experience.

As Always,

Thanks for stopping by "Daily" at the "Planet"!!

Hello Amanda,
Oh I'm so happy that you liked your make up bag... I never thought you would post about it...that was very kind of you my friend.
I enjoyed making it for you...I thought you liked jean fabric and I knew you liked Superman. :)
You have been a very sweet friend... It's always fun to hear from you.

I'll be praying for you...I have the same problems..espically around really tall grass...I can't really breath. :)

Have a wonderful day!

Love,
Amanda Brielle

The reason for my posting the verses would be because I like doing so and I like giving encouragement to others. Is the TUX penguin like the Linux penguin? That was a nice gesture of Brielle to send you gifts. Lol on the nickname confusion. Ttyl and God bless.

Hey!

Oh, what a neat present!! Brielle seems very sweet. That's awesome that you got to meet her!

I love pizza. LOL

Money's been tight around here for the past few months, especially with hospital bills and such for Mama, as well as quite a few birthdays. But we've been really good about not spending, and Mama and Daddy only go out once every 4 or 5 months, so the splurge wasn't too big. :-)

I replied to your e-mail. :-)

Love,
Becca

How nice of Brielle to send that-- it is so you! I wish I could take her sewing knowledge and transfer it over to my own head.

I am excited because some ladies at church want me to make 7 matching girls' dresses for a wedding they will be a part of in November. :)

I hope you all are doing well. I've been extremely busy, and not on the computer much.

What I Believe

I am a Biblical Believer and don’t conform to the denominations of today’s world. I am a non-fiction Believer. That means that God has already written my life story and I don’t want to change it by doing what I want, but follow it perfectly by His Word and Guidance. I will follow that plan alone. I will not make my own plans, but follow where He leads me.
I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and love Him as my Savior. I want to live wholly for Him and give my everything to Him.
I believe in Jesus Christ. That He is the Only Son of God. That He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one can come to the Father unless through Jesus Christ.
I believe Jesus Christ was beaten, crucified, and rose again in three days. I believe that He died for my sins, and washed them away. I believe that He is coming back for his people some day soon.
I believe that a marriage consists of a MAN and a WOMAN. I believe that the husband should be the head of the household and that all decisions lie ultimately with him. I believe that a woman should be a keeper of her home. I believe she does not need to get a job outside of her home and out of the authority of her husband.
I believe in a full quiver, and that God will give me the desires of my heart. I believe that the woman should stay home and raise her children in the LORD.
I am praying and waiting for God to bring the man of my dreams. I can’t wait to get married and have my own family. I am excited that I can be a stay at home mom and keep my home. I want to be a Homemaker and make my home to be a haven for my family to learn to be Biblical and Godly.
I hope to be an encouragement and teach Biblical things to all who stop by my blog and be encouraged and learn from others.
