Help your community - Shop Local
Where are you planning on doing most of your Christmas shopping this year? Local? Or do you, like most retail shoppers go elsewhere? In this economy everyone is trying to save money but in the process..... we are taking our local business support away by going to the big box department stores and national chains.
As customers, we are about to collectively spend a large portion of our annual shopping budget between Nov. 1 and Dec. 31. If we all just take a portion of what we're planning to spend this Christmas shopping season and spend it locally at businesses in our own communities we'll be helping support these independent businesses during these tough economic times.
If you join in shifting those dollars to locally owned, independent businesses, we’ll all generate 2-3 times as much economic activity in our community than if we had spent our money at a national chain. Across North America, that could mean billions of dollars of economic impact.
Let’s build an annual tradition that strengthens local economies, expands employment, nurtures a sense of community, and provides a more relaxed, fun, and rewarding gift-buying experience.

Wow, what a windy but beautiful day today..... these are days when I wish I had talked my husband into building a roof over my porch six years ago when I first opened.
I didn't even get a chance to listen in on the Buckeye game but I heard that they were able to pull off a win against Illinois...... not so good for them but a win was just what our BUCKEYES needed. GO BUCKS!
I know it's just now FALL but I'm getting things ready for the Christmas Season already..... Hope you all are enjoying this beautiful AUTUMN SEASON.
If you're in the area, I would love to have you stop in for a visit..... Enjoy the rest of your weekend :)

Another great movie to go see...... HURRY!!
This weekend was a busy one..... I helped out at our church as we hosted a great women's event, "COME TO THE FIRE" ~ it was fantastic! Met so many sweet people helping and coming from all over the country..... met several ladies from Michigan, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri and more.... amazing how far they came to have some wonderful girl time and recharging. I pray everyone that came left with a uplifted spirit and sense of how much God loves us and can work in our lives no matter what our situation or phase of life we're in :)
The second half of the weekend was enjoyed with a "DATE NIGHT" with my wonderful husband as we went to see the LONG AWAITED movie...... "COURAGEOUS". Oh, it was sooooo worth the wait! What an awesome movie (from the people who brought us FIREPROOF and FACING THE GIANTS) I can't say it enough how inspiring, motivating, encouraging and poignant this movie is. We don't usually go to see many movies (mainly because they're usually aren't very many positive good ones out there these days) but this is soooo worth going to. If you haven't gone, please try to soon! Trust me, you will NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! I promise :)
Whether you're a man or woman, young or young at heart, husband, wife, single..... This movie has a message for everyone! We need to show the film industry that we want to see more good clean movies that inspire hope and goodness...... the only way they will get the message is by us going out and supporting movies like this. It amazes me how many people that go out and throw their hard earned $$ at just about any movie that comes out there and yet when a good family friendly movie comes out..... they don't even check it out. We are cutting back just like everyone..... it's been quite a while since we have even been able to take a vacation but this year we have tried to go and support good family friendly movies and events when possible. We've seen more movies in the last 6 months than we usually see in 2 years lol! SOUL SURFER, THE GRACE CARD, DOLPHIN TALE and now COURAGEOUS....... the only way we're going to see a change for the better is by not throwing our $$ at any movie that comes out. We are choosy about what we eat when we are trying to eat healthy, so shouldn't we be just as choosy when it comes to what we are "feeding" our hearts and minds..... Our children and grandchildren are looking for examples to follow...... what example are we choosing to be??? Sorry, didn't mean to get on my soapbox..... but it really is our choice. What kind of things do we fill our mind (and heart) with??? The music we listen to, the shows on tv we watch, the books we read..... WOW! That's pretty deep for a Monday lol.... Hope you all have a great week ahead.... enjoy!!

"This momentous achievement marks a victory for America, for people who seek peace around the world, and for all those who lost loved ones on September 11, 2001. The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done" (George W. Bush ~ May 1, 2011)
