Small Victories Sunday LinkUp 11/8

After the fun, fright and festivities of Halloween, take a break and join us for Small Victories Sunday Linkup! We’re sure you will enjoy the inspiration from our favorite bloggers to help you make this the best holidays yet with their simple, creative and fabulous ideas!

Co-hosting Small Victories is designed to allow me to set aside a moment to reflect on the past week.  My goal is to focus on the things that went right, you know, the Small Victories!  Sometimes it may be something as simple as putting on makeup (that’s more of a bigger victory for me, usually only happens on Sundays, for church) or it may be finishing up a really big job I’ve been working on for weeks.  Either way, I want to take time to remind myself of what God has been able to accomplish in my life each week.  I want to be careful to give Him the glory and count my blessings.  

I’d love to have you do the same.  If you’re a blogger, link up your posts for this week and let us know what you’ve been up to.  If you don’t happen to have a blog, that’s OK, too.  Leave a comment about something big or small that’s happened in your life this week.  I love hearing about the good things happening in your life, no matter how small you think they may be.  

My Weekly Recap:

Personal and Family:

• We were able to spend some time Sunday evening with some good friends and enjoy plenty of food, fun and fellowship!
• For weeks now the garbage disposal in my kitchen sink has been leaking.  Sometimes not at all, sometimes a small drip and other times a stream!  I’m thankful for a friend with an amazing servant’s heart that got it all taken care of for us.
• As I write, we are preparing to leave for a week long visit with friends and VACATION! 

Blogging:

• This morning, announced the winner of the Calphalon Self-Sharpening Cutlery Set!  Thanks to all those who entered, sorry everyone couldn’t be the winner BUT there’s still a great Crock Pot Beef Stew Recipe!
• Pepperoni Baked Spaghetti is up and running.  A new twist on a traditional favorite…and recipe contest!
