Gosh, I remember shopping with my twins. I think Izod was the ‘in’ thing then and I really had to put my foot down on a lot of that. Twins - double the fun, but double the cost! Lol.
I used to shop everywhere but Kohls became my favorite in the last few years. Hard to believe it’s time for school already.....

I didn’t know ML, just knew you were in Florida. I have a cousin in Atlanta and she just had a Blue Heron come and eat all the goldfish in her backyard pond. She took a picture of it still standing out there and it looked huge!

Good Morning to Amys Place!
Here is Emily, getting excited about her upcoming birthday.
BIRTHDAYS
Running down the stairs
What do I see?
A whole bunch of presents
All for me!
Christmas is for everyone
Halloween is too
Birthdays are all to yourself
Just for you!
Unwrapping presents is easy,
Choosing which ones the best is hard.
Which one is better?
An IPad or a gift card ?
Birthdays are really really
Fun
Not just for you, for
Everyone
-Emily Grace, 10

Breaking Free
August 5, 2014
Read: Romans 8:1-11
The elephant is the largest land animal on earthand one of the most powerful. Yet it takes only a strong rope to restrain one. Heres how it works. When the elephant is young, he is tied to a large tree. For weeks, he will strain and pull, but the rope holds him fast. So eventually he gives up.
Then, when the elephant reaches his full size and strength, he wont struggle to get free, for once he feels resistance, he stops. He still believes hes held captive and cant break free.
Satan can play a similar trick on us to hold us captive. The Bible assures us that there is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit (Rom. 8:1). We have been set free from the law of sin and death (v.2). But the enemy of our soul tries to make us believe we are still dominated by sin.
What shall we do then? Reflect on what Christ has done. He died for our sins and declared an end to sins control over us (v.3). He rose from the dead and gave us the Holy Spirit. Now we are empowered to live victoriously in Him because the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in [us] (v.11).
In Christ, we are set free.
He has our salvation wrought,
He our captive souls has bought,
He has reconciled to God,
He has washed us in His blood. Wesley
Experience true freedom take every thought captive in obedience to Christ.
Though Paul did not plant the church at Rome, his letter to them became foundational not only for their spiritual understanding, butin many waysfor ours as well. Pauls theology of salvation and call to response resonate with gratitude to his Savior.
