We need prayer!

Here is a little update from the bodacious Brown's. If you know anyone that is in the Army, PLEASE give them a hug, our life is very challenging. Kelly left for training 2 days ago and should be home the day before Thanksgiving. Then he will leave the day after Thanksgiving and go back out to training and should be home right before Christmas. We will get some vacation time to take and then he is scheduled to go back to Iraq for his 3rd tour but for 15 months. I'm not telling you this to feel sorry for us, but just so you will pray for our Army, because we are all tired. I am very thankful that we will have the holidays together, I'm already planning my menu which includes a deep fried turkey!!! YUMMY! I also need a lot of prayer. So...I have figured out that I get my funny sense of humor from God although sometimes I don't think Him and I think each others jokes are so funny. If you pray for God to show you where you are supposed to be and how you can serve Him, be prepared for Him to answer you. For this deployment I had my own plan of moving home so the girls could get extra attention that they deserve and for some extra help for me. Well...God answered and said NO. NO! what do you mean NO! (see, not a funny joke) God has asked me to put together and help run a support group for the wives of deployed soldiers here in Baumholder, Germany. So that is what I'm doing. I am very excited and VERY nervous, this is WAAAAAY out of my comfort zone. My prayer is through this support group, that is desperately needed here, ladies will come to know and love God the way I do. Please pray for me. I know that was very long, but my girls are in school, Kelly is gone, and I have 29,812 words to use up (the average woman speaks 30,000 words per day, now that's funny). xoxoxoxo

God has made everything beautiful in its time. Ecclesiastes 3:11

You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you; and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. Isaiah 55:12

Love one another deeply, from the heart. 1 Peter 1:22

He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy. Job 8:21

During the summer, Kelly, my Mom & Dad, and the girls and I spent the afternoon having a picnic, exploring the woods, and playing in the creek. Madison & Grace played in the muddy water and caught guppies and Sarah & I went for a nature walk and collected "treasure", leaves, rocks and we even saw chipmunk. It was a great day.

Life is sooooo Good!

What better way to spend an afternoon then taking a nap in Daddy's chair with my dog. Aren't we cute?

A beautiful day to be outside!

Grandma Brown sent Madison a pair of roller skates, and now she won't take them off. If she's not begging to go outside to skate, she's got them on in the house. I feel sorry for our downstairs neighbors. She gets better everyday.
