Apes and Cherry's Great Adventure Roadtrip!!

Friday after work Apes and I loaded up in her car and made our way to Peoria, IL!! Here we are at the beginning of our trip!!

Peoria Bound!!! I have to say it was the easiest straight forward trip I have ever taken to Iowa!

There was an amazing Sunset in the sky, it was absolutely gorgeous!

Apes was just driving along and I DJ'd for our ride!

More pretty sky!

Monday, my brother brought me from Iowa back to Peoria and I had the chance to meet up with my dear friend Joy and her daughter Delaney! We've been great friends, but only online! For the past 8+ years! I was so excited to finally get to meet her! Emboz was super jealous as they are buds as well! And glorious day the GREAT GARRY came and surprised me and I nearly fell off my seat!! It was wonderful fun!

Here we are getting ready to head back to Lafayette! Notice my hair was struggling by this point but Apes looks beautiful!! Look at those bright blue eyes!!

We made a quick stop in Leroy, IL, which was just hilarious to us! We have a big joke with the name Leroy and ol Leroy Gonzalez, so of course we HAD to stop there!!

Right after Leroy comes the Farmland Rest Area! And of course we had to stop there as well, because who could resist a photo op like that??! Not me! When we were pulling out the worker there who had seen us taking pictures, was in a vehicle pulled to the side and was clapping and dancing and singing to us. It was odd but funny. We attract all kinds!

Don't ask me why my Farmland sign is orange. I have no clue! We hada great time roadtripping and I had an even greater time with my precious snugglemuffin! Stay tuned for more tales!

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...

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...

It's me, Charity
