March Madness

Well it has been awhile since I have updated the good ol blog. So I am catching up and I am calling it March Madness....!!

We had our 4 yr. anniversary a few weeks ago! That was a great night out!
Anthony and Phillip (his cousin) are now best buds. I think they have missed seeing one another 3 times out of the last 14 days. These boys are funny to watch. So glad they are getting along. They are only 11 days apart and they used to fight like no ones business. Now that they are older it seams they have to play everyday. So they played here last week, and I let them play in the water!!!
They had a blast.


Annabel had her first Birthday March 28th!!!! We just had a small get together here at the house. She had a blast along with the other kiddos. Her and AJ were exhausted and slept till 10am the next morning!!! They jumped all day in the moonwalk and played in the playhouse.

Happy Birthday Honey....

Annabel is One!!

This is for my cousin Casey....
My dear cousin has lost his wife Melissa. We found out Last July Melissa was diagnosed with Leukemia. At the time Casey was stationed in Japan.(Casey is in the Marines) They moved to California so she could continue her treatment somewhat closer to the family here in the states. We have prayed and prayed but it seams God needed her more then we did. Melissa went home to be with God March 26th. She leaves behind husband Casey and their 18 month old Hannah. Melissa was 23 and would be 24 in April.

Happy Anniversary!!!

Yesterday March 12th was mine and Ricky's 4 year Anniversary!!! Time flies, it doesn't seam like 4 years of marriage has gone by. We have been together 9 years now. WOW, feels like 30...haha j/k!
We are going strong with 4 years under our belt and 2 beautiful children! I couldn't ask for anything more, I have been blessed with a great husband and a great Family!
Last night my parent's watched the kiddos and Ricky took me to Capital Grille on Westheimer. It was very nice and the food was great!!! So sweet they had our table set up with roses and a card from the restaurant, everyone had signed it and it said Happy Anniversary! It was very nice!

Thank You honey for a Great Anniversary!!!
I Love You, Always and Forever!!!

Face Up

So we have been going to Church on Saturdays. I am loving it! We have missed the past 2 Saturdays because we were out of town and AJ was sick. This past Saturday was Face Up, Jesus on Forgiveness......

"Forgive us the wrongs we have done, as we forgive the wrongs that others have done to us" Matt. 6:12

1. Recognize the Damage
Forgive is not about....
~ Performance
~ Pretending
~ Projecting
2. Release the spirit of resentment
~ Admit my anger and bitterness
~ Choose to forgive
3. Receive the healing of Christ's Love
"....one of the soldiers pierced Jesus' side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water." John 19:34

" Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing,' And they divided up his clothes by casting lots." Luke 23:34

Everyday we get mad and bitter is some way. I have learned to let things go. Not all but most. After hearing this it just made me think of a lot. Pick your battles but the most part let things go and move on. Especially in your relationship, marriage, with your children. It is easier said then done but work on it and I think you will be much happier!!

Rodeo 2009

I had a girl's night with mom and one of my bff's (inside joke) Bianka! We went to the Rodeo this past Thursday and saw Mr. Handsome himself Clay Walker. I think I have missed 4 shows in the past years that he has come to Houston. I am usually always there!!! We had a blast, it was nice to get out for a bit. We shopped around and stuffed our faces and had margaritas. I talked Bianka into taking a funny picture!! Hehehe....
Also Bianka had this crazy idea to buy a sugar glider!! Now I really want one. I have always liked them. But never did the research on them. They actually would make a really nice family pet. So that is our next mission, to talk our very nice and sweet husband's into letting us get one!! I will keep you posted!
