Hard Times In This Election

Well, First all I want to say I'm so sorry that I have fell off the blogging world. I'm still here just counting down the days until the election is OVER. All of you know that my mother is running to keep her job as Clerk of Superior Court. I have never seen a race that has been so nasty. I have not slept good in about a week. I don't understand why people who do not know my mother, how could they say such hurtful things. On top of that, say that she was working another job on county time. Please, my mother would never do something like that. Melica Kendrick is a good woman. God has put this job in her heart for some reason. I know that He knows she can do a great job. Please don't believe the negative things in the newspaper.

Please pray for mom and our family for the next week. Mom said this go around she has felt like she has been under a personal attack. I feel the same way, it just hurts me that people are treating my mother like this. Nov. 4th is a huge day for mom and all us. I just keep telling myself GOD IS IN CONTROL!!!!

Thanks to everyone who voted for my mom and will vote for her. On behalf of her, I know she thanks you too.

Peace Out,
Lacey

You Just Lost One!!!

Hey girls,

I have been on this darn computer trying to embed a video I wanted you to watch. Since I can't get it on my computer here is the site http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Vvx8mdSXno. Lets just say this girl knows what she is talking about. I just wish I could be this fired up for Christ. I wish I could express my true feelings to Him. I need to stop living for myself and live for Christ. It is so hard in this world with all the crap we face. Satan has all this stuff we are tempted with like music (Yes I admit it I like rap music) TV (I feel as if I have to watch all the shows I'M HOOKED, not just on one show but them all) Internet (I spend I know 3 hours on this thing a day). But yet stupid me can't find the time to open my Bible and spend time with the one person who put me on this earth. How Selfish am I? I guess what I'm saying is this video made me think. I need to let Satan know he just lost one. Please check this site out and let me know what you think. Please tell people to check my blog, I think this is a huge message that we all need to hear.


God,
I am so sorry for being such a selfish person. How dare me think I can live this life on my own. Please forgive for not knowing your word like I should. God please help me start my day with you. I know I have to die daily to myself. God please help with this addiction I have with Tv. I know I have problem. I want to be able to live my life for you. Everything I do I want it to be in your name. God mold my marriage the way you want it not the way I want it. God please allow me to take the next step with you in your word. Thank you for being my father.

Praying for all the Mothers

Girls,

I just wanted to let you know I am writing this blog just for you. From talking to some and reading other blogs this has been a hard week for you moms. After reading Tamara's blog and all the comments. I just want to let you know that I am praying for you and your children. I love all of your children. They mean so much to Kevin and me. Thank you for allowing us to be apart of their lives. Please know we are not perfect but God is and He will work everything out. Tammy, Tamara, Shana, MaryBeth, Terri, Jennifer, Cyndi and I hope I didn't leave anyone out. If I did please forgive me!!! I just want you to know that each of you are setting great examples of being mothers!!! Watching you and your children is better preparing me for when I become a mother. Tamara when I read your blog my heart broke but God knows what we need and when we need it. He sent you those words for a reason. HE IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!!!

Please know I'm praying for you and your family. Keep up the good work!!!

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you.
Numbers 6:24, 25

Your sister in Christ,

Coming up on next blog: The Hammontrees go to Hollywood!!!

Tolilet Paper, Trash bags, and Light bulbs

Hello to all,

I just wanted to write and let everyone know how the Hammontrees are doing. Well we do not have any kids to start school ,but we are praying for the parents that do have kids going to school. Church is going well and I am so excited about the young adult class. Please pray God will send us young adult so we can grow. We need to reach out and grab the young adults that are hungry for God and His word.

Well the title of this blog is so funny to me. It is honor of my sweet husband Kevin. This morning as he was leaving for work he told me this. "Honey, we need tolilet paper, trash bags, & light bulbs." The great wife that I am told him I would make sure we had the items by the time he got home. He told me I might want to go soon because we are on our last roll of tolilet paper. In other words "Honey there is not much left on the roll and I will not be here to get you a roll when you run out. "

So I set out on my journey this morning. Yes Ladies I got up early this morning!!! I was out the door at 8:30AM. I had to drop off my work at my office and then headed to walmart. Yes Walmart!!! I have a hard time shopping there but that is a different blog for a different day. I must admit I was only in there for 30 minutes. Record breaking time. I was so impressed because there were no lines, its wasn't crowded, and I was by myself. (No Kevin to rush me)

Did you know that 80 trash bags cost $7.18 - Is that high?
The price of tolilet paper give me a break!
Light bulbs 1.88 for 4 (maybe I should start paying more and they will last longer)

Oh Well that is my take on tolilet paper, trash bags, and light bulbs.

Hope yall all have a great day!!!

Just a Quick Update

Well I had a great time this weekend. The women of #30 had a great weekend too. Here Lately I just feel the summer has passed us by so fast. It has been hard to take it all in. My brother went through Tre Dias #30 men weekend and he loved it. I can see such a change in him. Thank you for all the love and support while he went through. Well I know this is short but just wanted to post something new.

Until next time

In Memory of Baby Sam

Baby Sam went to be with our Lord on July 03,2008. I wish you all could have met him. He was a very jolly little guy. Through out his of life he spend 5 months out of 28 months in the hospital. Words cannot express how the family is feeling. I am even having a hard time writing these words. I just wanted to thank everyone for praying for this little boy who you didn't even know.

He has his PERFECT HEART now and he is running on the streets of gold.

Please keep praying for the family. I talked to my aunt who is Sam's grandmother and she is having a hard time with all of this. She said she has her good times and her bad times. She is a strong woman and I know God will give her peace. It is really going to be hard on us Sunday. We are celebrating Sam' s little life and what a huge impact he had on all of us.

This is a picture of my aunt Judy holding her grandson.

Again thank you for all your prayers!! Thanks for standing in the gap for Sam.

Love

Lacey

I survived VBS!!!!!!

Yes, I am still among the living. Hope everyone had a great time at VBS!! To all the parents I loved working with your children. Thank you for letting me be apart of their lives.

Well, I am really writing tonight so I can get motivated to get some tasks completed this week.
I would like to complete all laundry, clean bathroom, clean kitchen, clean my closet. Just get organized!!! I really feel I can't get anything done and I have no excuses. No children, only one class, and nothing but TIME. I know this may sound dumb but does anyone just have quick tips how to keep the house clean. I just can't motivate myself. WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME!!!!

Girls make me a Housewife!!!

I know I use to think you guys were crazy to be housewives but you guys make it look so easy.
I don't know if I can do it. I love staying home because I can sleep til 10:00am but that's not good either. I need a system!! I wish I could say I could look at it like a job but there NO money.
Oh!! Well I can't even believe I'm posting this about my house cleaning skills. If this is what it takes, I need the butt kicking anyway.

Maybe I need a chore chart like Maddie and Ella???

I know I need to stop whining and buck up and get the job done.

You guys are the best, thank you for setting a great example for me.
