SOO very much is going on! Life is absolutely crazy! I wake up in the morning only to lay my head back down minutes later! My days are filled with work, school, laundry, chores, more laundry, work, cleaning, more laundry, and of course, living! 
Have soo much to do and not enough time to do it!
I cannot believe its already the 21st of January! :O So many things have already happened this year, so many things are going to happen this year! I am excited, but anxious all at the same time!
I have been thinking about many things lately and am making sure I am following God everyday in this new stage of my life. Kinda scary, but exciting for sure! We never know what tomorrow will hold for us! But I am soo glad I can rely on my Savior to be right there with me the whole time and that I can rest in the fact that He is guiding me and I don’t need to worry about things because God already knows everything and as long as I follow Him everything will be just fine!
Been reading and studying a lot in the Word lately! I am working on a big study on courtships and marriages in the Bible. Looking forward to sharing what I found and what God shows me!
Yesterday we had some sweet blogger friends stop by! So much fun! Miss Julia, her Mama and family stopped by on their way home to GA for a bit with us! Its so neat to meet people in real life! We had a wonderful time while they were here. We chatted and then had to push Grandma’s car out of the snowy ditch! Fun times! Miss Julia’s brothers had a great time! While I was pushing the car, I fell in the cold snow! brr… luckily I had my knee high boots on, so I didn’t get snow all over my legs! But way too soon it was time for them to go! I am so glad they stopped by! Very sweet people!
By the way… if you are traveling by us or want to come by, you are welcome! Just make sure to email before you show up! haha 
We love having blogger friends stop in or meeting up with them somewhere! I know quite a few bloggers that live within 5 hours of us that I soo want to meet! Hopefully I will be able to add them to my Bloggers I Have Met page this year!
Still keeping busy with my GGM work! Finishing up the last PDF’s and writing my articles for our One Year anniversary issue! This is going to be an amazing issue, y’all! I am so excited! I just can’t believe another month has gone by and we are publishing again! Where does the time go?
And finally before I head back to work, I want to say what a HUGE blessing and encouragement it is to be receiving soo many awards from everyone! I am just blessed and encouraged that you all enjoy my site so much and would think to award me! While I don’t display awards on my site, I will not reject them and I just want to say THANK YOU for everyone who gave me awards!
I am going to share which awards I received and who I gave them to me in honor those people who think my site deserves them.
Shannon gave me:
Mrs. Penney and Mrs. Schultz gave me:

Hi Miss Amanda,
If I knew how to design Awards, I would make “The Sweetest Girl” award and present it to you, Jocelyn, and my two girls. Cause the four of you are some of the sweetest girls I know.
Love you,
Mrs. Lirette

One last thing i just found out that we live pritty close to eachother. like 60 miles! i might Email you about posibly hanging out for a little bit sometime.
God’s Peace be showerd upon you!

Hey!
We’re only…what did we figure out, seven hours away?
Believe me, when you travel 2-3 days at a time, seven hours is NOTHING. 
I’m praying for an opportunity to see each other!
I’ve been busy myself…writing, doing odd things around here… and studying for the driving test…NOT fun, but anyway…
An award that has something to do with superheroes…have to think that one up.
Write/call anytime, hon! Love ya!

I love reading your blog. It is always uplifting. I am (trying very hard) raising my 11 year old grand daughter. She is a very unhappy little girl with a very sad background. I would like to be remembered in your prayers. Hugs Sugar, I love you very much!

Miss Amanda? I wasn’t aware that I was disrespectfully ignoring your title!
Not that I care, but I like to make a good show…
And do I have to call you that?

Hey Amanda!!
Thank you for the update of what’s been going on in your life. I am so glad to hear you’ve been deep in the Word lately. It’s the best thing we could possibly do! I can’t wait to hear about your finds regarding courtships and marriages in the Bible. That will be great!
Congrats on all the awards you have received. You deserve each and every one!
Luv,
Brooke.
