Even in the Valley, God is Good

Some song lyrics!!

Haha, here I am, still thinking Christmas thoughts!! Us kids, got my mom a Christmas CD for her present, and there are two songs on there that I've never heard before but I really like, so I decided to post the lyrics!! Anyways, the first one is more of just a winter one.

"It's A Marshmallow World"

It's a marshmallow world in the winter

When the snow comes to cover the ground

It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day

I wait for it the whole year long.

Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly

In the arms of the evergreen tree

And the sun is read like a pumpkin head

It's shining so your nose won't freeze.

The world is your snowball, see how it grows

That's how it goes whenever it snows

The world is your snowball just for a song

Get out a roll it along.

It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts

Take a walk with your favorite girl (guy)

It's a sugar date, what if spring is late

In winter it's a marshmallow world.

"Tender Tennessee Christmas"

Come on weatherman,

Give us a forecast snowy white.

Can't you hear the prayers

Of every childlike heart tonight?

Rockles are calling,

Denver snow is falling,

Somebody said its four feet deep.

But it doesn't matter,

Give me the laughter;

I'm gonna choose to keep

(Chorus)

Another tender Tennessee Christmas,

The only Christmas for me.

Where the love circles around us,

Like the gift around our tree.

Well I know there's more snow,

Up in Colorado,

Then my roof will ever see,

But tender Tennessee Christmas

Is the only Christmas for me.

Every now and then,

I get a wanderin' urge to to see

Maybe California,

Maybe Tinsel Town's for me.

There's a parade there;

We'd have it made there;

Bring home a tan for New Year's Eve.

Sure sounds exciting,

Awfully inviting,

Still I think I'm gonna keep

(Chorus)

Another Tender Tennessee Christmas,

Is the only Christmas for me.

Where the love circles around us,

like the gifts around our tree.

Well they say in L.A.,

It's a warm holiday;

It's the only place to be.

But a tender Tennessee Christmas,

Is the only Christmas for me.

Song for the Week

Here's my song for last week and for this week, since it will be Christmas Eve on the day I usually post the songs!! And I'll finish up my series on Modesty next week. Hope y'all have a very Merry Christmas!!

It's Beginning To Look a Lot Like Christmas

Hey, here's my song for the week and some bizarre pictures!!

I have a tendency to really dislike winter, especially just at the beginning of the season. If you've ever been to Michigan in winter you'd understand why. These are some pictures that were sent to me; they totally give you a picture of what Michigan looks like in December!

We don't get so much ice usually, but this year we are getting a lot of it, the slushy frozen over kind.

Hopefully soon I'll get a new camera and then you can see what winters are really like in MI

Here's my song for the week, I watched some of this movie w/ my aunt over Thanksgiving Weekend, and I really like this scene, and the arrangement of the song!! enjoy!!

Support Our Troops!!

Hey, I just thought I'd let y'all know about this. "Xerox is doing something quite nice for our troops!" If you go to this website you can choose a card and then Xerox will print it out and send it to someone that's currently serving in Iraq. I hope that you all will be able to send one to our troops, and spread the word to others!!




I know I posted this song before but I like it and it fits this post so... :)

Song for the week

Here's my song for the week, I had a lot of trouble thinking of one that I wanted to do, and I found this one just searching through Youtube, so I thought I'd do it. I really like this one!!

Here's the songs

Here's my song for this week, and for last week I'm gonna put just a video about "Why women shouldn't drive," even though I don't believe it :) You may want to mute the second video, just a warning!!







Also, I need more ideas for songs, let me know what conservative christian songs, you like.

Veteran's Day

Here's a post honoring our veterans, my dad, and grandpa, and all the others that have served for our freedom. Here's a story my grandma emailed me and then my song for the week!!

This is a little long but a good story.

Back in September, on the first day of school, Martha Cothren, a social studies school teacher at Robinson High School, did something not to be forgotten. On the first day of school, with the permission of the school superintendent, the principal and the building supervisor, she removed all of the desks out of her classroom.

When the first period kids entered the room they discovered that there were no desks. 'Ms.. Cothren, where're our desks?'

She replied, 'You can't have a desk until you tell me how you earn the right to sit at a desk.'

They thought, 'Well, maybe it's our grades.'

'No,' she said..

'Maybe it's our behavior.'

She told them, 'No, it's not even your behavior.'

And so, they came and went, the first period, second period, third period. Still no desks in the classroom.

By early afternoon television news crews had started gathering in Ms.Cothren's classroom to report about this crazy teacher who had taken all the desks out of her room.

The final period of the day came and as the puzzled students found seats on the floor of the deskless classroom, Martha Cothren said, 'Throughout the day no one has been able to tell me just what he/she has done to earn the right to sit at the desks that are ordinarily found in this classroom. Now I am going to tell you.'

At this point, Martha Cothren went over to the door of her classroom and opened it. Twenty-seven (27) War Veterans, all in uniforms, walked into that classroom, each one carrying a school desk. The Vets began placing the school desks in rows, and then they would walk over and stand alongside the wall... By the time the last soldier had set the final desk in place those kids started to understand, perhaps for the first time in their lives, just how the right to sit at those desks had been earned..

Martha said, 'You didn't earn the right to sit at these desks. These heroes did it for you. They placed the desks here for you. Now, it's up to you to sit in them. It is your responsibility to learn, to be good students, to be good citizens. They paid the price so that you could have the freedom to get an education. Don't ever forget it.'

Good Eats, and a song

Hey ya'll!!

This is Sarah again,

just keeping ya updated. On Tuesday we had to go to Kalamazoo, because my grandma had a doctor's appointment, she's recently been diagnosed with Cancer, and so we went there to find out exactly what kind of cancer she has. But after the doctor's appointment, we went out to eat at my brother's favorite restaurant, Lunker's, because his 15th birthday will be Monday.

This is the restaurant's sign. Lunker's is like a small pro bass or cabela's with a restaraunt in it.

Here we are stuffing our faces, haha

My grandpa ordered some sort off fish dinner so it came on a fish plate, and everyone wanted me to take a picture of it

Now this restaurant is famous for it's "big" dinners, this is the Super Lunker Burger, 1 pound of burger, big dinner, huh.

This is my grandma eating the Super Lunker Burger

This is Luke enjoying his dinner.

Okay, here's another one of my favorite songs, I like this one version, because it was done nicely, and because I know the two girls in the middle:). enjoy!!

We're still alive!!!!

Hey, ya'll!!! (don't I sound southern)



This is Sarah, daughter of famous blogger: Jean Covey!! heehee:)

Just wanted to let ya know that we are still here.

Next month we're having Missions Conference at our church, so we're all really excited about that. We're having Bro. Sam Davidson from Heartland Baptist Bible College and Southwest Baptist Church come as our guest speaker. We're definetaly expecting a big turn out, so be praying that everything will go well.

I wanted to start posting about some of the different songs I like, you'll soon find out that I'm crazy about any sort of Godly christian music, sometimes I'll put videos on too. Here's a song titled "God's Been Good"- be sure to turn off the music at the bottom and enjoy!!


This is a song that I heard at my youth camp. I can't tell you the words yet but I absolutely love it. I'm driving my family crazy by just singing the first two lines of the chorus.
