Thanks for playing everyone!

Dream Board

We spent our time at MOPS creating Dream Boards.

I wasn't thrilled when I first realized what the meeting would be about.

Time spent cutting pictures and words out of a magazine to represent my dreams, felt like a waste of time. And then I got started.

My dream board became a visual representation of how God is working in my life. I found ways to display my relationship goals with my husband and kids. It has reminders of the things I am praying for, quotes that inspire me and Bible verses that focus me.

There is value in taking your goals and putting them in visual form. It has a way of solidifying them.

I plan on placing this board beside the chair in my bedroom where I do my devotions. I am excited to see how God will work on me in these areas and how he will answer my prayers over the coming year.

And the Winner is...

Giveaways Galore!!!

Hello Bloggy Friends. It has been a while since I've done a giveaway. And I have BIG news. In the month of February, yes that would be this month, I will be giving something away every week.

That's right, one giveaway EVERY WEEK!

And, I'm starting the giveaways off with a bang!

I have a certificate that will give one couple free registration to a Family Life Weekend to Remember marriage conference. (Regular conference rate is $258 per couple so this is a good deal!) The certificate does not cover hotel, meals or transportation. It must be mailed in, so be sure to pick a conference far enough in advance that will allow for this. Certificate expires August 31, 2010.

You can go here to find out the times and locations that are available.

You can go here to find the conference schedule.

And, you can go here to find out more about the conference.

On a personal note, Kory and I went five years ago and we are going again this year. It is a great chance to get away with your spouse and focus on your relationship. Life gets so busy it is easy to let the little things slip.

To win... Leave a comment telling me one thing you love about your spouse.

Please enter only if you can use this certificate or know of someone who can.

Winner will be announced Friday (Feb. 6) .
