Update

2009-06-16T13:52:00.000-07:00

Hi friends!

Sorry that I have not updated in a while. I've been busy if you know what I mean, school gets out and it's time to work on summer chores and projects. Last night it rained and thundered and lighting was everywhere. When we first moved out here in this beautiful country land we had 2 big oak trees on either side of our driveway. We had to cut 1 down because it was getting so old. Last night when the rain and thunder and lighting hit, it just had to take our big oak tree down too! Dad, Matt, Sam and I were all up eating chips and dip when the tree fell down. Matthew (brother) thought that God was MAD at someone. (Because of the lighting and thunder!)

Today, I met my friend Sarah Martin and we went to the Summit and ate lunch then we drove to Barn's and Noble looked around then got a STAR BUCKS!!!! (love that place.) I got their new mint chocolate chip Frapp it was good!!!!

In Christ,

S JANE

Hi friends!

Sorry that I have not posted in awhile. I have been busy with school, cleaning the house,

Watching the awesome movie Fireproof! (Starring Kirk Cameron) Our computer has been down for about a week so that meant no internet for a WHOLE week!!!!!! Seriously, I can't live without internet, I know.... that sounds awful.

Our family has a new email address it's: baileybunch@windstream.net This is just in case you need to contact me for any reason.

Grace and Peace,

Cherryholmes Concert!

2009-04-18T15:10:00.000-07:00

On Thursday night my family and I went to the Hoover library to see the Bluegrass band the Cherryholmes! They are a Christian family and they travel around and play bluegrass. I have been wanting to hear them play in person for a very long time and I finally got to meet them and see them play in person!!! THEY WERE UNBELIEVABLE AND VERY UNIQUE!!!!!!!!!!! I think what made them DIFFERENT from other bluegrass bands is that they moved around and they were always smiling, making jokes and stepping to the beat. Most bluegrass bands just stand in one place and play their instruments and sing.

Below are some pictures that I took. (Sorry if there a little blurry, I wasn't aloud to use my flash.)

Here's their website: www.chrerryholmes.net or www.cherryholmesband.blogspot.com

Enjoy,

Today is Mia's SPECIAL day, she turned 5 years old today!

I found this little play desk at the America's thrift store for a $2.00. When I was checking out at the register, the lady said that she bought one just like this at Target brand new for $50.00 for her granddaughter. I couldn't believe it! I found this almost like new for $48.00 cheaper!!!

Some friends of Mia's came over for the morning and played with her and then stayed for lunch

We had dirt cake with worms in it! I PROMISED that I would not put this person's name on the blog. But if you know her she is the oldest of 13 kids and she is really funny!!!! (smile)
I don't know this person.....

Iced Mocha Recipe

2009-03-07T07:58:00.000-08:00

I LOVE Star Bucks. Do you? Some of my favorite things to get there is the Peppermint mocha, white chocolate mocha, strawberry N cream frapp and the mocha frapp Love them! Here is a iced mocha recipe similar to Star Bucks. (note) I edited the recipe a little bit. The original recipe just did not taste that good. I have experimented with both recipes and I personally think my recipe is better.

ICED MOCHA

Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups cold coffee, 2 cups milk, 1/4 cup chocolate syrup, 1/4 cup white sugar, 2 cups ice, caramel syrup, 2 table spoons of vanilla ice cream or whip cream,

Directions:

In blender pour 1 1/2 cups of cold coffee add 2 cups of milk. Blend for 20 seconds, add 1/4 cups of chocolate syrup and blend. Add 1/4 cup of sugar and 2 cups of ice and blend until smooth.

To make it even fancier:

Add vanilla ice cream or whip cream on top. And then squirt on top chocolate or caramel syrup

and ENJOY!

Servings: 4 cups

In Christ,

Urgent Prayer Request

2009-02-21T11:47:00.000-08:00

Dear Friends,

Please pray, I have an URGENT PRAYER REQUEST. Picture below is Mrs. Forbes and Alison Bailey. The Forbes family has adopted a little girl from China about 1 year ago. Her name is Emme Grace she is 3 years old, she has 2 older brothers. Yesterday they were in Memphis, TN and her brothers were doing a speech and debate tournament.

Emme Grace was having some bad stomach issues and dehydration. That afternoon she got worse and they had to air lift her to the Memphis hospital and is on life support. This morning she had surgery and the doctor found a 4 inch hole in the lining of her stomach. They sewed her up and she is still not responding to any of the medication. Around 1:00PM today we got an email from our church and they said, " The doctors don't think she will make it through the day. She needs a MIRACLE."

Mia, Art and Emme Grace

PLEASE PRAY

2009-01-29T12:53:00.000-08:00

I hope everyone is having a great school day! My little brother is sick, my head hurts, my awesome Grandmother is out here in the country visiting us. I did school today, ate lunch, read some of my book, visiting with family, blogging, staying home while my other brother goes to violin lessons, then I will watch the movie Ice Princess!! :- ) It's cold today, it's 39 degrees outside! I have been emailing people. I am saving up for a "new" digital camera a Canon 40D, I'm on a roll for a good paying job! I was thinking about this summer getting a job at Star Bucks or at Academy or some camera job. Brain storming, Side note: Put dinner in the oven at 5:20PM and bake at 350 degrees.

Life is great at the Bailey farm!

In Christ,

Sarah Jane

Luke 2: 7-14

And she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. And the were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, "GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST, AND ON EARTH PEACE TO MEN ON WHOM HIS FAVOR RESTS."

Isaiah 9:6

For to us a child is born, to us a child is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called, Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince Of Peace.

This was out of the NIV Bible.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas with their families and a happy new year!!! :- )

Merry CHRISTMAS,

SARAH JANE
