Ok, You may not want to hear my rant, but I am so sick and tired of people who claim to be Christians dressing immodestly. Sure the dress is floor length, sure the straps are 4 inches wide, but the neckline that shows cleavage from her breasts is passible for modesty? Really? That's just banquet dresses, it doesn't even cover dresses, blouses and pants that I see Christian women wearing in public. Girls and women, do you know what your body does to a boy or man? If he sees it, he wants to touch it. We are commanded by GOD to dress in a way that does not cause the man to stumble (obviously paraphrased). The point is, explain to me how shorts, spaghetti straps, low v-necks and mid-drifts are fitting for a woman professing Godliness. Why does a girl feel it necessary to show off her shoulders, cleavage or thighs? Our world does everything it can to make us dress immodestly and look like sex objects! Ladies, it's time to stand up and be counted. Dress in such a way that no one could say you were immodest, please.
I have come down from my soap box now. Have a good day.

Wednesday night after services, Kimberly was baptized. She is my second oldest. I am so proud of her!

Well the year is getting off with a bang! I went back to work today and the kids are going back to school tomorrow. My hubby surprised me by taking me to Chattanooga for our anniversary. We actually slept in an old train car! It was neat the way they modeled it to become a hotel room at the Chattanooga Choo Choo hotel! We also went to see Rock City, Point Park, Ruby Falls and Lookout Mountain. It was nice to get away from the kids for 2 days. Hope everyone finds themselves healthy and happy, but most importanly in the Lord this new year!
Let me know how you began the new year!

I have been busy with working a full time job and 3 out of 4 playing soccer and the usual homework, cooking, cleaning and running! I just wanted to wish all of my pleo friends a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving. Also, to remind you that the things we have are just things. It's WHO gave them to us, that matters most. Let us all not forget to give thanks to our Great and All Powerful God! Not only this time of year, but everyday our bodies have breath in them!

Hello all in pleo world. I haven't posted in a while, been busy with kids and family. We had another great year at family camp with my hubby's family. We have been doing this since 2007 and every year someone new comes. This year it was my newest nephew and niece. They were such cuteies! We played our family game of croquet and several rounds of chicken foot and rook. We also put together 4 or 5 puzzles, saw HP7p2 and made many runs to the grocery for 20 people's needs! The following Monday I started work. I am working in a private school cafeteria. The girls all go there and they are very glad to see mommy every day, well at least the 2 little ones are! The teenagers not so much. So far we all have gotten in the van and hubby drops us off, goes to work, then picks us up in the afternoon and we all come home together. We spend more time together in the car than just running all around in 2 vehicles. We hope this cuts down on our gas expenses, too! So far the girls like their teachers and classes. It is going well. I am tired though. I haven't worked a full time job in 17 years! It has been hard getting back at it. Hope all of you are doing well.

I thought I saw capris & boat shoes the other night; not 100% sure though. I know some people come straight from work but others do too & they manage to change. I don't have a problem with slacks/pants as long as they are dressy but capris?
My how times have changed: when I was a kid NO ONE wore slacks/pants to church and now that is considered appropriate. To this day I will not wear slacks to services unless there is unplanned circumstances which I cannot control (example: coming from hospital) and I do not want to miss services. What really makes Wednesday night any different from Sunday service when it comes to dress?
