Last Weekend's events

Its bad when you are almost a week past what you wanted to blog about, the memory starts going and it becomes old news.

I did have a wonderful weekend last weekend!! Friday after work I worked out and then rushed home to change and be picked up by Katie and the bubbies. I applied a liberal amount of bath and body works Japanese cherry blossom (SOOO GOOD!!) and lets just say that for the rest of the night Katie and I both had the taste of it in our mouths. yuck.

She picked me up with the bubbies and I got to hear a fascinating story from Joey about the little drummer boy. Did you know his parents died in a fire? I sure didn't. And then we heard some more 5 yr old theology which cracks me up and makes me want to cry at the same time. Joey is learning so much about Jesus at school it is SO AWESOME!!!!

We arrived at Katie's parents house and had an interesting dinner with her Mom. Katie gave me permission to blog about this.. Her Mom wanted us to stay the night and have a sleepover in the living room. Me, Katie and her. (and the bubbies) and we could stay up and talk and paint nails.. at that point I turned to Katie and said Oh BOY Maybe I can braid your hair too!!!!!! Thankfully her Mom missed the sarcasm on that one. Let's just say that after dinner was over and we were done looking at pics of katie as a little girl (she never went through an awkward phase. i hate her) we booked it for the door and her van. We literally got outside and took off running as Katie says, QUICK! BEFORE SHE REALIZES WE"RE GONE!!

Lets also just say that Mt Dew was involved once we got back into town. Ahhh mt dew... how we love you! Of course mine was spilled a scoush when I got out at Walgreens to get our red box movie. Which they FINALLY had My Life In Ruins! I WAS SO EXCITED!! untill we tried to play it in my dvd player and my screen would never come up:( 1.07 down the drain. I was so sad! But we ended up curling up on my couch and talking for several hours and it was so great! We haven't been able to spend quality girl time in awhile so it was awesome!!

Saturday I slept in a bit and got up and went to see my chiro again and he got my neck taken care of. no migraines this week! YAYS!!

Sunday was our Choir's Cantata, Katie and the boys couldn't go so I went alone and it was such a blessing! I loved how Ben had the guy with the awesome voice/accent speak throughout the music. It really brought home to me the reason of this season and what I should be focusing on.

So it was a wonderful weekend and now I am at home at my Parents for Christmas and looking forward to spending a few days with my family! Kev and Liz get in tomorrow night!! YAYS!!

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...
