They are SO cute

WEll it's been a few days since I have posted a new blog ...  Having last week off work made blogging much MUCH easier!  SOMETIMES I get a lil lucky and have some time to shoot out a quick post ;)  I really like posting when I have fun PICTURES to go w/ my stories ..... however, I do not have a camera crew following me around documenting my life!  AND most of the pictures I take are of my nephew and niece!  I NEED my own children HAHA .... but until then .... these kids will do ;)

I Love Sundays

Ok .... so Keri and Alina were over today .... and as always Alina was smiling and laughing the whole time.  I tried to catch some of it on video, but every time I took my camera out Alina got so distracted.  I have never met a more nosey lil girl ;)  Anyways .... here is one of the videos ....



Oh and ...... yesterday was my parents wedding anniversary (thank you Aunt Linda for the reminder ;)  Right now mom & dad are in Romania on one of their many mission trips!  ~~~I love you two and am so proud of you!  You are in my prayers ;)

"where I land"

One of my favorite artists in the world is JJ Heller.   I was listening to her music this morning during my devotions and the lyrics to one her the songs stood out to me ...

And I am lost for words
You’re more than I deserve
And when I cannot stand
You are where I land

This describes perfectly how I have felt the last few days ... weeks .... months ... years!  I am so thankful for God's grace on my life that I cannot even describe it!  No matter what I go thru and no matter how hard it is .... when I fall .... He is "where I land"

First things first ...


Today I should be in Chicago!  I have the week off work so my friend and I planned a two night trip to The Windy City .  It got cancelled a few days ago when her boyfriends grandma passed away and she needed to be here for him.  We of course are in the process of planning a different time to go, but in the meantime I need to keep busy!  I enjoyed rollerblading so much last night that I decided to go again today!  It's very different starting off rollerblading at an apartment complex on the second floor as opposed to the house on Brookshire, but I manage.  Another good thing about not being in Chicago .... Tonight I get to go to my brothers and friends soccer game and then to dinner to catch up with an old friend ;)

BUT first things first ......

Look at me go!

OK .... 

I just got home from rollerblading and the first thing I did was go on blogger.com to see what my sisters, family and friends have posted for today! I love it! Sooooo ... since I pretty much go to this site everyday ... I decided to create my own blog. I wanted my first post to be a super good one! I don't know what really qualifies as a good post .... but I thought pictures would be a good idea! After I decided this I realized that I do not have any recent pictures! So instead of pictures of me ..... here are pics of some of the kids that bring so much joy to my life!
