I Love this Homemade Laundry Soap

I have made this soap three times now and LOVE it!!! My clothes feel sooooo clean when they come out of the washer....Cheap too!!!!! I use 1/2 c Borax,1/2 cup washing soda,whole bar of Zote....I then only use a half cup per load (she uses a whole cup, because she dilutes it). I do not dilute it in a used laundry soap container...I just use it right from the 5 gallon bucket.

Baby Shower

For any ladies that are local and don't know, a friend of Kristi L is giving her a baby shower this Saturday, August 8th, at 2 pm. She is not registered anywhere, but can use receiving blankets, bassinet sheets, pack and play sheets, and any clothing items other than newborn. They also need some larger items, so gift cards are also a great idea. Join me in helping shower Kristi with gifts for baby boy #5!! See ya there...

Best Burgers Ever !!!!!!

Another place we hit while in California...can you believe I use to live right around the corner from one of these places.....Absence makes the heart grow fonder...Oh how I miss these Burgers...My waistline doesn't!!!!

I am so Proud.......

I cannot tell you how proud of my husband I am. We recently went to California for his Graduation. He has worked so hard to get his degree in Biblical Studies, Graduating "Magna Cum Laude"....Working full time managing a computer department, teaching the adult Sunday school at our church...then doing school in the evening, while raising a family of five. He is an Amazing man. I am so Blessed beyond belief..We had a wonderful time in California (my native home)...We drove the coast on our way home and got to see the California Redwoods.....That is another post in itself.

Pray for my Christian....

On Saturday my son Christian was playing ball in our back yard and got hit with a round plastic softball in the eye. We spent the evening in the ER and the next day at an Eye Specialist...He has what is called a Hyphema,you can read about it here..... Hyphema ......It will get better over time, but he has to be watched very carefully by this Specialist....The hardest part is he has to sit at a 45 degree angle all day, even when he sleeps...They want him to move around as little as possible...I know he would covet your prayers and so would I .....Sorry for the lack of posts...Life in our home has been be a little trying over the last few months. I am so glad my Savior lives, otherwise I could not face tomorrow!!!
