God Sometimes Blesses in Unique Ways

If you follow along at all on my blog, you know that we are trying to pay off our mortgage. Sometimes the pay off is slower going than others, and sometimes I feel like we are making progress. Although, I would really like the mortgage to be gone tomorrow. :)

A little while ago, I entered a giveaway over at The Sensible Mom. I usually enter giveaways and never get anything, but this time I won! And the giveaway is so practical. Twenty four packs of Big Ritz Crackers! So helpful for the grocery budget! 



You may be thinking, won't all those crackers go bad before you eat them. Well, my mom suggested putting some in the freezer, so that I did.

I pulled the crackers out and Esther consumed four crackers right away. I think she would have kept going, if I would have let her. Not thinking we will have a hard time eating them all! 

Recently, I have been really working on focusing on the positive. Isn't it so easy to focus on the negative? What is something positive that has happened in your life recently?

And just because I think Esther is super cute, here she is enjoying her Ritz!

  1. Such a fun prize! Enjoy, Esther :)

    And you can always use the crackers as casserole toppings, put peanut butter in between them and dip in chocolate (my fav) and make lots of cheese balls!

    1. Thanks for all the ideas, Cindy! Honestly I wouldn't have thought of the casserole topping, but I will have to do that! Of course a cheese ball sounds mighty good, too!

  2. Yay! I'm so glad you got your prize already! :) Esther is so adorable! My kids loved the Big Ritz crackers, too.

    And, yes, the Lord does bless in ways we'd least expect. :)
