New Look!

I have been fiddling and messing around for several days to change the look of There's No Place Like Home. Don't ya just love the tornado picture?!? Makes ya thankful to live in tornado alley, lol. The threat of tornado's were the only reason my children didn't want to move here. Every time it storms someone gets worried. Not as bad now as it was in the spring..... but then again we haven't had many storms recently.

We have had a busy week here. Everyone has been sick, including my dear husband. Not sure what is wrong, we had the flu 2 weeks ago and now a sinus, throat, chest cold. In August?!?!?! I just hate being sick when it is so nice out. Does not seem right :( We were supposed to go to a Youth for Truth rally in Bonner Springs today, we went last night and the kids had a blast! But when we woke up this morning everyone was under the weather, except Freddy. So he went with a friend. He was gone the WHOLE day. On the way home the family he was with stopped to clean our church, so he was part of the cleaning crew also. He was tired but happy when he returned. We on the other hand missed him a great deal. You would think being I have 5 children, 1 being gone wouldn't be a huge deal. But I feel like something isn't right, something is missing when any of them are gone. The rest of the family had a quiet day. We just lounged around, read and played games together.

I am terribly curious: Are you the same Missy who won a contest I had a few months ago? If you are, I am so excited you have your own blog now!!

If you're not, just think of me as some crazy blogging lady you never heard of before...;)

Yay!! I was going through my entries for my most recent contest, and when I saw the name MISSY I thought it just might be you! When I checked in the past (after our emails) you didn't have a blog and I was disappointed we weren't able to interact anymore;I KNOW you're a faithful reader from my traffic reader (Gardner Kansas, right?).

I love your blog name by the way, and the picture of your kids is great:) I'm SO glad they've enjoyed the crafts.
