Living Word Assembly of God

Yesterday we spent the day in Paris which is in northeast Texas. It is practically on the Texas - Oklahoma border. Our pastor was preaching both the morning and evening service at Living Word Assembly of God there in Paris. So, since it was only a two hour drive...some of our church went over to hear him preach. After the evening service, the ladies had prepared sandwiches and desserts! God moved in both services and we enjoyed the fellowship with everyone too! We love our new church family!

Mitty Moo...

Here is a video of our neighbors cat named Mitty. I call her Mitty Moo. She is sweet and likes to come for a visit. I am glad that she does belong to someone because she is easy to love! Mitty is about 10 weeks old and full of energy!!

The McIntosh Cats...

Cliff and I have two cats...Little Boo, the Siamese, and Shadow, the black cat.  Little Boo moved with us from Beaumont, but Shadow was added after the move.  They both have their quirks for sure, but we love them.  Boo lives up to his Siamese image...CRANKY...most of the time.  If you leave him alone he's fine.  He does have his sweet moments and you know he is in a loveable mood when he gets sweet because it doesn't happen often.  Shadow, on the other hand, well, he's real sweet to me, but pretty much scared of everyone else.  Considering we thought he was wild and that we weren't going to be able to keep him-he's come a long way.  He's not the kind of cat that wants to be in your lap all the time, but he does show favoritism to me and not Cliff!  Some people don't like the way cats aren't super friendly, but I like that because they don't require the time a dog needs...especially since you don't have to walk them to use the bathroom!  Anyway, here are some pictures of what they do best....REST!


Boo loves this basket!



and this is Shadow's favorite basket!
I wish I really understood why they like tight places...
like baskets and boxes!!
And why do they like to get on papers-especially the ones I NEED!




This is not good...on my towels!

So far this year we have had several family and friends come for a visit.  Here a few pics of our many visitors!  Even though we've had a lot of company, we still have a few more visits planned before the year is up!

Oldies but Goldies!

Cliff and I have been enjoying several classic TV shows and movies lately.  Some of them...of course are Disney, but a few of them have been other new ones too!  We have gotten hooked on the Donna Reed Show.  They just started putting it out on DVD in the last year.  Season 1 came out October of 2008 and Season 2 came out in July of this year.  I just read that Season 3 is due out in October!!  Needless to say, we are excited!

A Disney movie that will be added to our favorite list is Third Man on the Mountain.  The lead character is James MacArthur.  For all you Disney fans out there, you will recognize him from Swiss Family Robinson.  Some how I missed that one growing up, but I definitely want to buy it.  Of course, you have to buy it on the internet.  I know you can get it at Walmart.com and another site for cheaper movies is Half.com.  It is powered by E-bay.

If you are looking for some of the oldies but goldies...give these a try!!

Shopping with the Girls!

Today I went shopping with Nancy, my former fourth grade team mate and also my classroom neighbor. She was a great neighbor who rescued me on several occasions from angry parents to watching my class while I took a very fast bathroom break!!

She has also moved to the DFW area, and we try and get together once a month. Today we went shopping at Historic Downtown Grapevine. I also had the joy of spending the afternoon with her darling grand-daughter, Natalie! She was a real trooper! We really had a great time visiting and shopping in all the quaint shops! Natalie made friends in every shop we went in, but who could resist that smile of hers! Of course, the one photo I got of her she was napping.

Walt Disney World 2009

Finally....I haven't added anything to my blog in forever!!! Well, Disney is worth getting a post! We went at the beginning of August, and had so much fun! I was able to go with my sis, Lynley, Leslie, Brenda, and some other friends from my church back home. It was kinda a reunion trip since the four of us have been together before!! We are true WDW fans, and can't wait till we can all go again!!
