Emmy Awards Details - Part 1

First off, let me start by saying thank you SO much for all your cheers and congratulations!

It truly has meant a lot!

I'm letting you know, right off, that this might be quite a lengthy post...

I truly think this is a blessing tied in with a test from God...

I can do all things through Him who strengthens me...right?!

With 800 cookies having to be made within a week in a half...

I definitely can't do this on my own...

When I first received the email from Val Wilson, Producer of the Emmys...

I was sitting in the car waiting to pick Goosie Girl up from the bus stop...

I read it and thought...okay... I definitely need to reread that again...

News & Documentary?  What it that?

That just means...Diane Sawyer...Barbara Walters...Hoda Kotb...

It ended up being the real deal...
insert heart racing...

Of course I responded but then didn't hear back for over a week 

so I thought it was a dead deal...
insert a touch of relief but excited to be asked...

Then I heard back and they truly did say they wanted Sweet Goosie Girl to be amongst the 30 businesses that will be in the Swag bags...

Honor, excitement, surreal are just a few words that came to mind...

As exciting as it was, it would have been a whole lot easier to say no...

it's quite scary to leave your comfort zone...

After much prayer, God gave me clear clarification that I needed to obey...

not just think and pray about it...

that I needed to get out of my comfort zone...

that I needed to do it...

His words were scary clear through Bible verses I was reading...

to Instagram...

and to Facebook...

WOW!  God... I always said I needed the burning bush and you gave it to me...

(God is everywhere...I just didn't know He was on Instagram and Pinterest)...

I don't know what all this is going to bring...

but I'm trusting God because he created me for great things...

It sure is scary to to not be in control but God's plan is so much better than mine...

So here we go on my journey...
