Daughter had two friends over today.  They had a great time.  They played with the Little Pet Shop. They dressed up like super hero princesses, the only way to be.  They played with Play Doh, and watched my son make a volcano out of it.  It was fun watching neighborhood children and a couple of their moms watch my son's volcanoe take off.  Very colorful because he made the dome of different colors.  They had a tea party outside for their dolls.  They watched old Mickey Mouse cartoons.  They went to the park.  They had a BBQ.  They helped make a cake.  They fought a bit.  They played charades with a neighborhood friend.  They had a great day.  I did not enjoy solving the fights.  But I did like when they came up with stuff to do.  Now, they are all sleeping on the air mattress and the futon in the room we call God's room. 

You know, I get really tired of bad news.  I want to be informed, but it gets tiring every once in a while.  God is so great.  It saddens me to think that while I only have to hear about bad things, He has to see it.  Right now, even, a siren is going off.  Our family says prayers for the sirens we see and hear.  But it still makes one sad.  Man, without prayer and knowing that God is in control, life could be seriuosly depressing.  Praise God for His future and His hope.

Three more days before school starts.  Tomorrow, if the Lord wills, we will finish our slumber party, do some house and yard work, take a bike ride, bubble baths, and movie night.  Sunday, we will go to church, my husband will work on his school test and go to his fantasy football party with my son, and scrapbook, blog, rest.  Monday, we will have our family day.  I'm praying we that the Lord would give us money to go to the Tillamook factory or Ocean Shores.  Otherwise, we will stay home and have family game day.  Then Tuesday, school will begin.  Anyways, that's my plan.  I wonder if it will line up with God's plan.  Have a great weekend.
