Shutterfly

Hubby and I had decided not to buy souvenirs while in Paris. Instead, we set aside funds to make a memory book. 


It took two days to make a special memory of our dream trip. Two well invested days. 

I happened to work on my order when the company offered a 50% off discount. This made me super happy because I ended up with twice the pages.



I'm not a great scrapbooker. 

In fact, all my mother's art skills went to my sisters. But--put a reasonable computer program in my hands, one that is sensitive, offers more than I could possibly dream, and offers great discounts, and I'm on board. 

This is the product. Awesome, eh? 



When I finished ordering the book, Shutterfly gave me a chance to let you see it as well!  Wow!

If you are interested in taking a walk through Paris, click on the link and flip through the pages. 

Hubby and I had so much fun in Paris and this book will help remind us of the trip.


Yes, this does sound like a commercial...but it's not, really. I mean, when you find a product that just knocks your socks off, don't you want to share it with your friends?


Having a book to use for a reminder is a tool God taught us to use. He knows we forget and need helps for recalling information. That is why He took time and used selected writers to pen His words for us. Words that would help us in every situation.

Have you noticed in the side bar the first book I listed as my favorite? Without God's words flowing through my mind and heart, I would be miserable.

I trust you have had a chance to read or reflect on God's word today.

Thank you for sharing your photo book! It was really a treat to see all the sights, I wish I could go *sigh* Do you or your husband speak French or were you able to get around with just English? I wonder who started the tradition with putting a lock on the fence, never heard of that before. And why was your first subway experience an epic fail? Anyway, fun way to start the day, thanks!
Lis,
Thanks for stopping by today and enjoying our Paris pics with us.

We found we could get around perfectly in Paris speaking English...except the subway. The problem with the subway is they had shut down the number 6 for construction. This is a major line connecting east and west sides of Paris. Of course the Parisians knew how to get around the problem but as visitors we didn't. We were left stranded on the east side of Paris late at night and in this one moment where we couldn't find anyone who spoke English had to really think our way through the problem. What an adventure!

I don't know who started the lock on the fence, but several movies have helped promote it. Also when you get there, street vendors stand on the bridges and sell the locks.

Bravo! Encore! Great job for going down memory lane to revisit God's blessing. Such a marvelous trip.

I do enjoy God's word most every day. I know He loves me and has special things to relate to me daily. He is so good!♡!
God is so good. That is for sure. Okay, how did you put that heart in your text? Fun...I get to learn a new trick.

I am using my smartphone, and it has double symbols. When you presson symbols it brings up 1/2. When you press on the 1/2 it brings up 2/2 and a second bunch of symbols. Here is a sampling: °•○●□■☆★♡♥.
Wordpress has lots of symbols available, too. By doing a left pointed arrow right next to the number three (make sure to put spaces before the arrow and after the three but not in between the arrow and three) you will make a heart.

And that sets up the problem. I'm using a laptop. I'll have to put my techy teen on the problem to see if she can find a way for me to do this with my laptop.

Fabulous Friday Feature-Candace Calvert

Today we welcome author:  Candace Calvert To win a copy of Candace's new release: By Your Side Scroll to the end of the post  to see how to get your copy. Mary Vee here. One of my absolute favorite classes at ACFW this last year was the medical fiction class. That wasn't the real title, I can't remember what snazzy name the instructors gave it--BUT three stellar medical professionals, who are also Christian Fiction writers, presented great information then opened the time for questions. We students asked them all kinds of questions like what kind of poison would kill a ..., and tons of other questions. It was sooooo much fun, and informative.     I asked Candace, who was one of those fabulous teachers, to join us and share  how God has led her on her writing journey. Here is what she said: God Gave Me a Wake-up Fall The story won’t surprise folks who hav...

One many of us can relate to. Her post below shows her strength and positive spirit. I'm so happy Andrea is visiting with us today. Pull up a chair, grab your coffee and come chat with Andrea. I asked Andrea to tell us how God led her on her writing journey. Here is what she said:  Romance Done Write I didn’t read much while growing up in my family’s suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin home. I read what I was assigned for school, along with an occasional children’s novel like Pippi Longstocking and Little House in the Big Woods .  When I was in fourth grade, I wrote my first novel, Little Miss Mouse . My mother kept it all these years and it’s now in my possession. I laugh when I read those ten handwritten pages. At the tim...

Fabulous Friday Feature-Lorna Seilstad

Today we welcome author: Lorna Seilstad One commenter will win a copy of Lorna's book:  As Love Blooms Scroll down to see how. Mary here. I have quickly learned what an amiable person Lorna is. After only a few emails we've become great friends and found similar things to talk about. You'll see this same spirit in her post below. I asked Lorna to tell us how God led her on her writing journey. Here is what she said:  Excuses! Excuses! Moses and I have a lot in common. Oh, I haven’t led any Egyptians out of bondage, but I have looked at the path God laid out for me and rattled off excuses that would rival those of the great spiritual leader himself. You’re probably familiar with the story. God gets Moses’ attention with a burning bush, and then when He begins to disclose his plans for Moses’ future, the excuses start. ( My paraphrase of the story:) “Moses, I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people ou...
