Needs Alignment...lol

Hello all! Havent slowed down to write anything in awhile.

The whole weight loss plan is going great. ive lost pounds and inches. I am finally starting to feel like I can wear a bikini again this year. I feel more fit than I have in a LONG time. Thanks Val and Christie for being my workout motivation.

Still praying for all the tornado victims. Have more donations I need to drop off.

Mak is so ready to be out of school for the summer. Camdyn is ready to swim!!!

Mom and I have been making homemade strawberry jam-YUMMY! Hit me up if you want to buy some.

Jason has turned into Farmer Brown-LMAO. He planted 22 tomato plants, 8 rows of okra and IDK how many rows of corn. So thankful we have land to be able to grow this food. Now he has to get squash, watermelon and canteloupe in the ground.

Work has been going good for Jason also. Many prayers of thanks to those who have gotten/sent him business. Please keep him in mind for your auto needs-Skint Knuckle Garage-274-8011.

I miss getting to spend time with my bestie Patti. She is doing really good since her surgery. Patti-I love ya and am so proud of you. keep it girl!!!

Amanda and victor are supposed to get to come home Friday! How exciting right!!! Please continue to pray for them as they continue their journey at home.

I got to see my uncle Jon and his new wife-Natalie the other night. im so glad they came for a visit,

I still am trying to find my path on my spiritual journey-Letting God lead my way and I know I cant go wrong.

Well God bless you all. Enjoy this humid weather....lol.

Warm weather

Hello all. ive been so busy lately....But the weather has been so gorgeous! I absolutely love when I start to see the flowers bloom and see blossoms on trees. I have actually seen green grass growing in yard. We have 2 deer that Ive seen in the pasture. Im so thankful for the warm weather.

I am still loving the gym. I have lost 14 pounds since starting there. YEA! I absolutely love Zumba-thanks for teaching us some sweet moves Christie...LOL. I have a workout buddy who helps keep me motivated-thanks Val! Its nice to have someone to talk to as we walk or someone to laugh with while we strive to tone these bodies.

My friend Patti continues to heal as she goes to physical therapy for her neck. I will be glad when she feels better and does not hurt!!!   Love you girl.

I miss my cousin Rachel so much. Please pray for her for unspoken reasons. Love u cuz!!!

Amanda and Victor got moved to Atlanta and she loves the Shepard Center. Please continue to pray for her healing.

Have a good day everyone. Thanks for reading and God Bless.

The Dirty Thirty

So tomorrow opens a new chapter in my book of life. I turn the BIG 3 0 tomorrow. I had all these ideas that I wanted to do for my birthday but when Mak had surgery all these plans are out. But Mak and I are going to the Ms Tomahawk pageant because we both love to watch them. Thanks Elizabeth for our tickets.

As I turn 30 i have taken the time to look back at all the things that have occured in my life. I have 2 beautiful relatively healthy kids. Makayla is my girly girl who reminds me of my mom (careful what you say about your mom-LOL) She has been a blessing all along since her birth. Cam is a bundle of energy that never quits. He is truly a "momma's boy" and has been that skirt clinger since birth-right Vickie? He has always been my beautiful bouncing baby boy. I love you kids-yall make my world go round!!! I have put myself through nursing school-thanks Mom and Dad for all yall did for me! I have been a Pediatric nurse for almost 8 years now. In those 8 years I have shed many tears- some of joy and some of sorrow. I have achieved a CPN (certified pediatric nurse) and am very proud.  I work hard for the money...lol. I have a job where I get to be a big kid every day. Sure there are times that break my heart but I absolutely love my kids at work. Lastly but not any less important-Jason and I have been together for almost 9 yrs! WOW. He has put up with me and I have tolerated him....Its amazing what you learn about each other and yourself. Thanks you Lord for sending me someone to love me for me!!!

Finally, as i turn 30 I have a few goals in mind:
1st-get my family in to church. I feel that pull and hear the God Lord calling me but I have yet to open the door and let him in...
2nd-Get in shape-I have MVP (heart probs) and i need to get healthy for me and my family. I have joined the gym and have lost 9 pounds already! It feels great to have "me" time there.
3rd-grow closer to my friends and family. I love all you guys. I want to be in touch, have nights out, and see your kids!!!

Thanks for reading! God bless!

Uncertainity

Today I went to Zumba which is a class I LOVE!! I have the most awesome instructor who knows who how to shake what her momma gave her!!! Christie-U ROCK!!! I am loving feeling in shape except when I feel like a truck ran over me the next day..LOL. :-)

Mak is feeling alittle better. She has rested some and I wish she would listen to her momma. Here is a pic from her strep rash.

On my serious note, I am so worried about my bestie-Patti. She is struggling with the whole accident from about 2 weeks ago. For those who dont know, Patti and another of our friends Amanda O were injured sledding in the recent snow. Amanda O is paralyzed from the neck down. She has a trach and on the vent. She is a wife and a mother that has now had her life altered. So Patti was injured in the same accident. She is struggling with flashbacks from the accident and is batttling depression because she can still walk. Please pray for her. Patti is a very sensitive soul. I pray God gives her strength to make it through this. God bless Patti and Amanda O. We were the 2 Amanda's with a Patti in the middle and we will always be. Also please pray for Amanda's family-husband Vic, sons Victor JR & Christian.

Thanks and God bless.

New to this!

Well I finally did it. I wanted to try my hand at this blog thing so here I go...

Makayla had surgery Friday to remove her tonsils and adenoids. Its been a rough couple of days, She does not feel well and is having a hard time not eating anything except soft stuff. Arrr...

I have made it my goal to get in shape and lose alittle weight. So Ive been at the GYM attacking classes such as spin, cardio blast and ZUMBA!!! Love it and its been great to have "ME" time.

I love my family and may God bless you all.
