OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!!


It is official!!! I went to the Dr today & had blood work done.... I am pregnant! Yes, PREGNANT!!!! 4 weeks ~ due date is Aug 11. We are so very excited! I am just in aawww.... it has been a tough road to go down these last few years. For those of you that do not know, I had a tubal pregnancy in 2002 & have had many miscarriages since then. They have all be within the 1st 6 weeks. I know that we aren't there yet... but GOD IS GOOD, ALL THE TIME!!!! I have faith that this will be a healthy pregnancy & baby! It just feels different this time..... it feels good! I think as long as we get through December we will be A-OK.... so with that said, I am asking you all for prayers. Not just for myself, but for my whole family ~ the parents, in-laws, friends & everyone involved! I know that this is not just something that we have been praying about and hoping for but so have all of our friends & family! This is very much an answered prayer..... TY all! Love ya, I'm Out!

Last But Not Least........


Thanks to everyone that has followed me for the last 30 days! When I started this commitment, I had no idea where I was headed. I know that I am still not finished with my "Wild Ride" but I just want to share a few things with you that I have learned about myself in the last month....
  • I am way more sporadic than I ever thought I would be!
  • My life is WAY to full to share everything with you!
  • Jesus loves me! NO MATTER WHAT!!!!
  • The only opinion that matters is God's!
  • Change really can be good!
  • When I set my mind on a goal I can accomplish it!
  • I can do ALL things through Christ!
  • Sometime, being by yourself really isn't what you want! (ie. being broke down on the side of the road)
  • God's beauty is PRICELESS & can not be explained in words!
  • True Friends walk into your life when the rest of the world walks out!
  • Life isn't about what you get, it's about what you give!

I really have learned SO MUCH in the last month.... a journey I never thought I would take. Again, I thank all of you so very much for sticking with me & being understanding when I didn't wanna stick with it myself!

I love each and everyone of you.... I will continue to blog, I just don't know if it will be every night. Please keep commenting.... I love reading them all!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tomorrow we will be back in the gym. IDK if I will be doing the boot camp as I have been hurting for a few days now. (more on this at a later date.) I am excited to go back tho.... it's been 14 days tomorrow since I have even gone :-( & I will be back at Weight Watchers this week too. I will post my loss/gain lbs after I weigh in.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am asking for your prayers this evening & over the next few days. Not anything major, just a very much needed prayer for myself & my family.

For the last time (but def not the least time), I'm Out!

Best For My Life



OK, I have NO IDEA what to blog about tonight, or even what to title my blog..... this "wild ride" really has NOT turned out the way I wanted it to. But then again, what ever really does???? The best for my life is not always what I want. God is putting together my puzzle. He is the ONLY one with the puzzle box top & therefor the ONLY one that knows what really & truly is BEST for me! I am so excited about the road that lies ahead of Danny & I. Many "possibilities" in our near future. I just ask you to pray for God's Will to be done & NOT mine! Really, that's about all I have for you tonight. IDK why I have less & less to blog about everyday, but I have a feeling that tomorrows will be pretty lengthy as it will be my #30! Yes, already..... I am amazed that I really have stuck with it! Not that I had alot to say sometimes.... & even tho I sometimes forgot.... But I still have managed not to miss a day! :-) Now, I just gotta make sure I do not miss tomorrow!!!! Good Night, I'm Out!

Black Friday....

The Biggest shopping day of the year.....

I LOVE black Friday!!!!!!!!! I am all about getting a deal! Some people call me CRAZY, others call me SMART..... you decide! I bought 5 jean/shirt outfits, 10 hoodies, a pajamas set, 2 board games, a Hannah Montana video game, books, Guitar Hero III, The Bee Movie & Boogie for PS2 all for $170.00!!!! Now, I call that smart! I search out them deals.... you know me... if there is a coupon for it I use it, if its on sale, I comp the ad at Wal-Mart, I use those CVS Bucks! It's so worth it to me.

I did decide NOT to get up @3:00 this morning. For the 1st time in YEARS, I slept in on Black Friday! I didn't even get out of bed until 10:00am.... it was so nice! & yet, I was still able to get just about everything on my list, plus more.

After shopping for a couple of hours, I ordered pizza & we had company. We had lots of fun watching movies, playing board games & even doing a little bit of Christmas decorating. Spent some very much needed quality time w the fam & now I am off to bed.

We are having our Christmas pics taken tomorrow. I am also hoping to get the rest of the Christmas stuff outta storage & perhaps..... cut down a real tree this year! Will my home look like Christmas next week??? or will it take us until Dec. 25th to get everything together???? I am so wondering that!!!!!!!!!

Can't wait to share awesome fam pics tomorrow... until then, I'm Out!

Happy Thanksgivng!

Happy Thanksgiving!
For the 1st time, in about 6 years, we spent the day with Danny's Mom & Dad. It was really nice not having to be in a hurry to get somewhere (we live less than a mile away) & not having the hour + drive! As, I stated last night, we decided on Mexican Food for dinner today. It was delic!!! Beef & Chicken Fajitas, Mexican Rice, Tamales, Chips & Hot Sauce & even a Santa Fe Dressing..... it was all so good! For dessert Becki made a Pumpkin Pie & Cherry Pie & I made the Weight Watchers Cheesecake Muffins. Not a bit of it was remotely anything other than great! We had so much fun playing w Sydney too.... she really is getting SO BIG! Walking like she has been doing so for months.... she laughed, she cried, but mostly of all she ATE!!! I tell ya, that girl can put away some food!!! IDK where it goes....


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Cowboy game was a good one! I'm sure I don't have to tell any of you that we won! I do wished it would have been a little more "interesting", if you know what I mean. It was a game that I have actually been wait to see for months... you see, Danny is & ALWAYS has been, a Raiders fan & I, of course, was born & raised, a Cowboy fan. Battle of the "Teams" today. Not that it was much of a "battle", tho.... I did really enjoy watching the Cowboys stomp the Raiders!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I had plans to go shopping in the wee hours on the morning tomorrow... however, the Ohio trip, set us back a little... So, I thought, well.... I can still at least go to Wal-Mart & get a few things.... but after looking at the ads... there just isn't really anything worth getting up @3:00 for! So, with that said, for the 1st time in about 8 years I will NOT be fighting the crowds! I will miss it :-( but I think that the few little things that are on my list will still be there @12 or even 5 if that is when I decided to go. We do always put up the Christmas Tree on the day after Thanksgiving, but I don't know where I am gonna put one this year... my living room is already cramped! We have talked about going to cut down a tree... but IDK how far we will get on that tomorrow, either.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am so thankful to Jesus Christ for dying on the Cross for me & my family & friends...... without Him, I literally would be LOST! I thank God for my family.... my friends.... my life!!!! I am blessed beyond measure & I pray that you are too.

The bed is calling my name.... I'm Out!
