Thinking of home

Can you tell I like rainbow colors? LOL...it reminds me of my home, Hawaii. I've been really missing home, just being around my family. If you've ever been to Oahu or the Hawaiian Islands, there's nothing like it, the weather, people, and the food! It even smells like home, if that makes sense! I should plan another trip back home. That sounds like a plan! Now to find some moolahh to go! LOL!
I wanted to dedicate today's post to my father, it's been a year since he's been gone. Home isn't the same without him though. Every time I went home, he would always be at the airport to pick me up and my favorite dish "kilawun shrimp." This is the last picture of me with my father and mother in Las Vegas. We were at the Bass Pro Shops-Check out the huge catfish!

    So sorry you are homesick and missing your father so much, Analyn. I know that feeling of loss and it is hard. My family and I have been to the Hawaiian islands now 3 times and will be returning in June. I can see why you miss it and love it so much. It is a place like no other on earth, a fascinating culture and people who know the true meaning of ohana. My prayers are with you and your father.

Let Go and Let God...

So I've been going through some stressful and difficult times in my life recently. I wanna get married, find a home for us (I get to/want to buy things....), teach TFC (Teens For Christ) Discipleship, and go back to school. I'm just being a wuss. I pray that I can "Let Go and Let God" but I'm the kind of person asking "Lord, can you show me? What does that look like?" Dude, I don't know about you but I'm praying for the wrong thing. In church I'm taught to "Just pray about it". I got so stress out about life that I got sick about it. Just enough sick to put me through the ER!!! Anyway, my lesson learned: Pray for peace in my heart, what ever that looks like, just give me a "chill pill"....Lift this burden of heaviness off me. For me, I pray that I can chill and Trust Him-whatever that looks like. Although because I don't know what it looks like, I'm scared (heart skips a beat) of what it does look like! Does that m...

Simple card

Just a simple one tonight. I love stickles! No coloring on her dress, just stickles. I'm exhausted! Today was the first time ever that I've given blood. It wasn't all that bad! I may do it again, although I will definitely have lunch before I give. They did have yummy treats! Donate Blood, you'll be a true HERO.

Random Amusing Challenge # 19

Image
Here's my card for Glenda's weekly challeng e. This week was to use scraps. This was a fairly easy since I have tons of scraps! The only thing is new is the stamps, newly inked. Does that count? I hope so. Glenda, thanks for this challenge because I got a chance to clean and purge my scrap box! It needs more organizing but I got it down to three scrap boxes: large scraps, medium, and small-but-usable scraps. There were a lot of white card stock pieces that I could now use instead of using a new full sheet! A Muse: stamps: three cups, what's brewing, other: twinkle stars, paper: vintage red, card base: wausau classic cardstock.
