Hi!!! It's me...the one who post on here less often than I should.
Between Wyldlife/Younglife, friends, work, sewing, reading and trying to keep our place not looking like a bomb went off, I just don't have the time (or maybe it's patience) to boot up my laptop, wait 10 minutes for it to actually turn on, and type something up. Okay, maybe it's laziness too. :-)
Well, we are potentially facing big changes in our lives, and I want to keep track and be able to look back at the process, especially if we have to do it again sometime.
We are beginning to look at houses!!!!!!!!! Eeekkkk!!!! Super exciting!!!
We received our pre-approval letter early last week, and the next day our realtor sent us a list of houses in the area. There were two on the list that we really like and are going to see on Monday. I'm really excited! I know the first one needs to some, work that's what we want. We want something to work on, and have projects as long as the house is livable in the process. So we'll see how they turn out.
We are really relying on God through this, and know that what we get is going to be a total blessing from Him. We have our expectations set high for where and what we want, but you can't put God in a box, right?
I'm not getting my hopes up, I know the longer we stay were we are, the more we can save and the less stress we will feel. It may be a year from now until we find "the one", and I'm okay with that.
I guess this will help keep me accountable for posting :-)
P.S. I haven't forgotten about the Proverbs 31, I have a few verses finished in my notebook, I'm just to lazy to type them up...

Proverbs 31 Woman
We all hear about the Proverbs 31 woman, and how wonderful she is, but how much do we really know? It's like the generic verses for how to live like a godly woman, just like 1 Cor. 13 is the love chapter.
So I'm going to go over a verse a week, so stay tuned! :-)
Oh, and stay tuned for some snow pictures. My laptop is slower than molasses since she got 'sick', and often I'm just to lazy to wait 10 minutes for her to boot up, or to ADD to remember that I did. :-)

Kevin's car hit another milestone last night...
We were driving down 202 when it rolled, so I couldn't get a picture right away, but as soon as we hit a red light I whipped out my phone. :-)
Way to go Maxie!!! Let's see how much more we can get out of her. :-)

The Words I Would Say
I was cleaning the other night with music on the TV for motivation. I was jamming out to this one song, and went into the room to see what it was called so I could look up the lyrics later.
I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was sung by the Sidewalk Prophets! I recognized the name immediately because a guy I went to college with is the drummer! Pretty sweet!!! Check them out because they are seriously amazing!
The song's called The Words I Would Say:
Three in the morning,
And I'm still awake,
So I picked up a pen and a page,
And I started writing,
Just what I'd say,
If we were face to face,
I'd tell you just what you mean to me,
I'd tell you these simple truths,
Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
These are the words I would say,
Last time we spoke,
You said you were hurting,
And I felt your pain in my heart,
I want to tell you,
That I keep on praying,
Love will find you where you are,
I know cause I've already been there,
So please hear these simple truths,
Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
These are the words I would say,
From one simple life to another,
I will say,
Come find peace in the Father,
Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
Thank God for each day,
His love will find a way,
These are the words I would say
Love it!!!

I'm a Slacker...
Yup. That's me! Straight up, hard-core, slacker. With a capital S.
It's been almost a month since I've posted. Tsk, tsk, tsk, what kind of blogger am I? I keep this blog so that I can look back on my life and see what was going on when, and what do I have to look at?
So let's see...
We rang in the New Years with a game night with friends. Spent New Year's day with mi familia, lunch at Panera and the afternoon spend playing Wii Fit Plus at our place.
Celebrated one of my best friends husband's birthday with a surprise party.
Had an AWESOME game night with my Wyldlife kids.
Had one of the best yet club nights for Wyldlife.
I got some awesome one-on-one time with a few friends.
Survived yet another buyback with work. (Only came home in tears one day!)
Started running again.
Have been addicted to the Wii Fit and beating the highest scores in E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G.
There's my month in a nutshell.
February I vow to post at least once a week, with or without pictures.
I'm hoping to get some good pictures this weekend at Minutes Night, so we'll see.

2009 Looking Back
Wow! I can't believe how fast this year has gone. I feel like it was just last year looking back over the months and seeing what stood out. Everything time we finish something Kevin always ask what my favorite part was. So, from what I can remember from 2009, here's my year recap...
January: New Year's Day dinner with the family
February: V-day dinner at Simon Pierce
March: Spending a day with my besties getting our hair and makeup done for the wedding trial
April: Kel's bachelorette party (Barnstormers game)
May: Weddings galore!
June: Long beach weekend with my family and NYC
July: Jim Thorpe hike with Brent & Tara
August: Florida!
September:Beach trips during a hurricane both times
October: Steph's wedding, and being knocked down by the flu
November: Finding out I'm going to be an aunt
December: Paying off my student loans and becoming debt free
It's sad how hard it is for me to think back over the last 12 months. I really can't remember! That should be motivation for me to try and post at least once a week on here. That way I can remember my life. :-)
