Melton Memories

Well we had our Client Appreciation Event last night and I think it went very well!! I was excited to see quite a few designers that we have been trying to get into the showroom for years attend!! :) Overall I think that we had a great turnout and I am praying that we will receive some new business from it! We had tons of great food (which I took the remainder of to the Fire Station, they loved it!) lots of beautiful products and a beautiful atmosphere. I meant to take some pictures because I had candles throughout the showroom but forgot and when I arrived this morning the magical mother fairy had been in and cleaned up everything! Guess that is what mom's do... Lol

I was watching this and got goose bumps at how beautifully these 6 & 7 year old girls where singing the National Anthem and thought that I would share it with everyone! Aren't they great!!!

Philippians 4:6–7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Let all the earth fear the Lord;let all the people of the world revere him.For he spoke, and it came to be;he commanded and it stood firm.The Lord foils the plans of the nations;he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever,the purposes of his heart through all generations.-Psalm 33:8-11

I woke up this morning feeling so sad for our nation. It may sound weird to say this but all I could think of this morning was Sodom and Gomorrah and how all the people lived un-Godly lives and how God came in and destroyed them. I am not saying this will happen to us, but it just made me stop and think... It feels (at least to me) that our country is like those two cities. The country seems to be all about "me, me,me" and living different lifestyles, etc... and it seems like God is just saying, "Fine here you go, you asked for this so now you got it!" It just makes me very, very sad..... I guess all any of us can do is pray and trust in the Lord because he has a plan and he is ultimately in control.

Here are the pumpkins that Wayne and I carved for Halloween!

Here are a few looks from the past! Since I don't have children guess who gets to dress up for me?!! You guessed it.... Neon & Chloe!! The one of us is from last year, Wayne was a nerd & I was a cat (check out the eyes). Neon in the bottom was Cookie Monster w/ his cookie!!
