Oh, hi! Glad you could make it on such short notice. I really wasn’t planning on having a party, but I’ve just redecorated (my blog, not my house – that’s still on my to do list) and I’d be delighted to show you around. No, that isn’t my front porch, nor did I snap the photo. Credit for the image, which I found at MorgueFile.com, goes to Mary R. Vogt. Come on in and take a Tour of My Home.
On the right, you’ll notice my Daily Bible Verse, courtesy of BibleGateway.com and, ultimately, God, Who has revealed Himself to us in His Word. I can’t get through one day without it, and I hope the same is true for you. My testimony can be found here.
Next is my list of shared links via Google Reader. I love this tool! In just a couple of clicks, I can spotlight great posts from other blogs without having to create a new post.
If you scroll on down a little further, you’ll see some very special people who are being prayed for by lots of other special people. I encourage you to read their stories. The buttons link to their blogs.
The rest is the usual blog fare – you know, links, blog rolls, archives, and more! buttons! Feel free to browse my archives, where you will find a little levity, a little gravity, some hilarity, some solemnity, much sincerity, not much brevity, and a whole lotta faith.
Here are some of my favorites:

You have a lovely blog. I’m 429 from the party. I live in Birmingam, England.
very nice look Brenda, I like it!!
What a beautiful blog! I enjoy finding other Christian Moms to talk with. I’m here from the Blog Party! Stop by my place if you have time..
I love this new look, Brenda. Your sidebar gets more and more interesting all the time. I think you’ve probably forgotten more than I ever knew about blog design. 🙂

Hope you are enjoying the party! 🙂

Hi there! What a nice blog! Glad you decided to join the party. I was a last minute person on that one too!
I love Google reader also!!! I love your new look, green is one of my favs!
Hello Brenda….another Fellow Brenda here too. I read your comment on my blog….I still have not had a chance to sit down and creat a post about the blog party. Cool that your name is so close to mine, first and last and that my hubby is named Bryan. Kind of freaky.
I love your blog too. Cool colors and content. Thanks for stopping by my blog…I have put yours on my favorites!
Party ON!
You’re right in your comment – a mother’s heart singing! And you’re supposed to be hearing Steve Green singing “Great Is Thy Faithfulness,” but for some reason it didn’t work.
I love your new colors! Beautiful.
I like your new color scheme–it looks really nice! That Google Reader thing is great. I’ll have to check that out.
My goodness–you’ve been visited by the Captain of the Starship Enterprise!
Hi there. I like your blog. You’ve done a nice job. I enjoyed your testimony. Isn’t God good to bring us back and love us like we never left Him.
Thanks for stopping by my party & I’m glad to join in on yours, too. I LOVE your blog name & banner!!!
Please be sure to check out a fun Bump! Photo Tag going on tomorrow! I’ll have a linky up … hope you’d like to play along and post your favorite pregnant belly pic!

Happy party-hopping!

I love your banner! I have never seen a google reader before–very cool! I’m enjoying reading your posts—-loved the To Meme or Not To Meme.
Have a great week and I’ll be back—I’m adding you to my bloglines (which I just recently figured out so google reader might take awhile).
SO glad you decided to join the party!
Brenda, thanks so much for visiting my blog! Yours looks terrific…I’m sure I’ll be back.
Hi! I saw your Mowgli comment on Boomama’s blog, and I had to come over and tell you, THAT’S IT!!! That’s EXACTLY who he looks like. Hilarious. Great party, by the way. I’m having a party at my place too, if you wanna stop by. I have some scrumptious scones sitting on the counter. 😉
Thank you for coming to my party. I will answer your question on Friday…..I have a few to do!
Hi nice to meet you BibleGateway.com is very good 🙂
read their stories. The buttons link to their blogs.
Hi Brenda
I have answered the question you left at my blog party. Stop by to see what I said!
I love your design — lovely, peaceful, welcoming.
I agree about God’s Word.
Since my blog party post is no longer on my first page and my host won’t allow a “sticky post,” I’ll post the link to my blog party here. Hope you can stop by!
Hello! It’s so nice to stop by and meet you =)
Have a great day.
