Sky Watch Friday


From the rising of the sun to the going down,the Lord's name is to be praise!

My husband want to spend time with me on the beach during sunset while we are in our honeymoon. He wanted us to see the sunset.
But when we are going out from the grocery store we saw that the sun is already setting, so I took photos outside the grocery store. Taken in Big Island.
I would like to thank the Sky Watch Friday team for having a wonderful site to post such a beautiful shot.

My husband always reminds me of our monthly Anniversary because I always forget it. I think because we are so busy for the Christmas and there's a lot of things to do, anyway I wanted to join TT but I was not able to seat and face the computer earlier to post. I just finished baking Amish bread and baked turkey for our home group. I thank God for our 3rd month Anniversary.

Cutting Christmas tree

The tree was not that heavy, I thank God for my husband.
Before my husband cut the tree, he want to make it sure, if I like this one.
Finally,we found the right one.

Yesterday after church service my husband decided to go to the place where we can cut a Christmas tree. So we went there, the place are huge and there's a lot of car parking on the the place. People are cutting their trees and the payment was on the exit. My husband asked me, what kind of tree I wanted, I don't have any idea which one. There's a lot of different kinds of Pine trees and so confusing when you are there. It was a nice experience for me, I was so cold, but people are so enjoying in cutting the the kids are running and shouting. My husband chose Canadian tree so that we could put the ornament, some trees has a lot of leaves and my hubby are trying to explain to me, that if we choose those, we couldn't put much decoration because of the leaves. Now I learned something..

Christmas Holiday!

Give love on Christmas!
I realized that I'm so blessed to have a shelter and we could afford to eat 3 times a day with snacks, I don't need to be rich to have that. There are people around the world who don't have any. I need to be thankful to God and count my blessings. I remember when I went to Burma, people there are so scared everyday, because of their government situations and what's happening to their country. Blessed to be a blessing!Giving Groceries.
We gather all the kids to give them toys.
This mother told us that it's her first time having a groceries worth 550 pesos free.
This lady was so thankful for the groceries she received, I asked Mark to drive me to her house and take her in the church. She went with me and we feed her and gave her a bag of groceries, she was crying, so touching.

We wrapped all of these,we did it many times because the cellophane always break.
Mark was the one who come up with the ideas to give groceries to the church member and visitors, who couldn't afford to buy something for Christmas. And some of his friends in the states share money for this. We bought a lot of toys for the kids.
These are my nephews who help us wrapping and prepared food to eat. It's good to have a team work.
This is my sister Leah, she help a lot in cutting a piece of paper for the toys.
