Life is good

Well nothing to significant happened in the last 3 days. I got my eyebrows waxed. Now that is exciting! I looked like I had a uni brow. Dancing with the Stars started on Monday. I love that show. It's one of the shows on tv that I wouldn't be afraid for my child to watch. (I just sounded like my mom!!!) It's so fun to watch all the people dancing. I wish I could dance like that. I want Jenn Garth or Cameron or Helio (cause I like Kym) to win. I can't wait till Thursday!!! Ugly Betty AND Grey's starts!!! I love both shows!! My cousin Emmi is coming over and we are partying!! Don't laugh it's the hi lite of my week!!

Now on a more serious note. I know I don't have alot of people that read my blogs but I have a friend that needs prayed for (and no it's not me but do pray for me too). She is going through a really rough patch right now. Just pray that God would lift her and her family up.


Ok Sunday we put up our scarecrow!! He's cute. Scott and I have been putting him up for years but this was the first time with Megan. SO of course I took pictures.



She loved watching Scott and I putting him together!! It was so cute. I also took a video that day of her. She likes to shake her head "no" alot now. I'm gonna have my hands full. lol

It's a beautiful day in the neighboor hood

So I'm sorry for the last blog. I was having a REALLY bad day. Whoever said having faith was easy?? It's hard sometimes. But I'm over it and God and I are talking once again. So here what's been happenin' in my life. I turned 26 (!!!!) on the 15th. I had a nice birthday. I spent it with my husband and daughter. They and my cousin Emmi took me out to Olive Garden for dinner. And I got ice cream cake. I love ice cream cake. Megan can scoot around now. And can almost full out crawl. I'm so proud. Megan can say Dada and Mama (she said mama on my birthday). We painted our kitchen a light greenish color and it turned out great. For my birthday my brother gave me money for a new cell phone, which I got today and it's pretty neat. My Mom came down to my granny's house last Thursday. I was nice to be able to see her. I am making her a ***** for Christmas!! (She reads my blogs so I can't tell) I can crochet now!!! I'm really good at it. If anyone wants me to make them a hat or scarf I can. lol Scott, Megan and I went out to Steve's (Scott's brother's) and picked pumpkins!! It was fun. We got to have 4. Oh I think I need to talk alittle about Big Brother. All I'll say is I CAN'T BELIEVE DICK WON!!!!!!!!! I do not like that man or his daughter!!!!!!! BUT i'm happy to say the next show I will be blogging about is Grey's Anatomy!! It starts on Thursday! Everyone must watch it! Well have to make dinner and work on our scarecrow!! I'll take pictures and show you next blog. I'll leave you with a video of Megan.

As for me, I'm not talking to Him

I know when your a Christian your not supposed to ask why but WHY???? I'm a (I think) good Christian I go to church every Sunday, I try to show an Christian example, We give an offering every Sunday (I admit it's not 10% but we can't afford that), and I try to talk to other people about God and His love. So why God are you doing this to me?? I am having a REALLY bad day. I had two jobs I was waiting to hear from. Well they both called today and said I'm sorry we have filled the position. WHAT?? Money is really starting to get tight around here. And I prayed and prayed (and other people were praying for me) for a job so I could help provide for my family. I told God that the school job was the PERFECT job for me. I love little children, I want to be a teacher someday. And the babysitter is just 2 miles from the school. Just perfect for our family. The bank job I was hoping for great hours and GREAT pay. Would've been a little drive BUT I was willing. I just don't get it. God knows we need money and I need a job. Two perfect jobs just gone. Why God? Why? I know He might have another plan BUT couldn't I just have worked at one of these jobs till then? lol Life is horrible right now. I'm sorry to be such a downer today in my blog BUT I just had to get it out. I'm not one to keep things inside. So if God truly is listening please pray for me and my family. I promise next blog will be more positive with pictures.

We'll NEVER forget!!

Ok so we all know it's September 11th, I'd just like to take a moment and talk about it. I can't believe it's been 6 years!! I remember exactly where I was when it happened, I was sitting in my first class of the day, Spainish. After that class I had choir so I walked out in the lobby for awhile and saw a WHOLE bunch of people around the tvs so I asked what was going on and I just stared in amazment at the tv. I couldn't believe what I was looking at. I went to choir and the teacher and our whole class were in tears. Our teacher let us go home early. I was driving home and the weirdest feeling came over me. I looked up at the sky and there were no planes. I know it didn't happen to me but as I was looking in the sky I just started crying and praying for the people in the planes and the towers. God please just be with them and their families. I called my Mom right after that to make sure she was ok or if she knew. I knew she was ok but in a situation like that you just want to call your loved ones. I got home and watched the coverage on tv for awhile. When I had to go to work!! The store next to us let us use a radio to listen to it. We were dead at work! But I remember a lady coming in and she said she didn't care about what was on tv!! If I wouldn't have been at work I would have lost it! If you don't care lady your not an American get out of our country. Anyway It just feels like yesterday to me. I still pray for the people affected by 9/11 the kids that will never know their parent or grandparent, the wives that will never see their husbands again. God just be with them today as they and the world remember what happened 6 years ago today. Just give them the strength to go on and have faith that their loved ones are waiting for them in heaven with you.

So life has been great here. NO job yet. Megan loves to clap!! She army crawls and can say uh oh, well sorta. We got to spend all of last week with Scott. That was great. Megan and Scott really bonded. We went to the zoo, went to Aunt Bonnies for Labor Day, went to the football games and just had fun. God has really blessed us. Well don't forget to look at the posting before this one for pictures. Talk to you all soon.

I love Fruity Pebbles!!

Today I got a call from the bank for a second interview!!! So that's great! Now I'm just waiting around for the school to call me!! Cause I really want that one. But whatever direction God wants me to go. Mom and Dad came over to Grandma's house (Granny's is only 5 minutes from my house) on Thursday. We had lots of fun. We took a 4 generation picture.


It turned out pretty good. Grandma always has her mouth open so it's ok. Today I've been pretty bored BUT what's new. I was standing by the window with my camera and I took this awesome picture!!


I thought it was neat!! It's the first time I've seen two sitting at the same time. We have three regulars. Two females (in the picture) and one male. Scott and I are trying to figure out some names. I think the male will be Brutus or Nemo. Maybe you Moms that read my blog can help me with this one. I am deathly afraid of SIDS!!! Megan has been rolling over in her sleep lately. So I find myself waking up like 4 or 5 times a night to check on her. She is almost 7 months (WOW she's growing up fast) and I know that from 2 to 4 months is the time to watch. So I'm just wondering if any of you freak out too? Anyway that's it for this blog. But I'll leave you with some thoughts and some more pictures.


Megan fell asleep playing again.

Football is rapidly approaching so I just wanted to make sure her hat fit. lol She doesn't like it much.

She loves playing with the hard wood floors.

Big Brother thoughts:

  • I'm not sure if I'm happy Dick stayed or not. I wanted him to leave BUT at least he can work on his relationship with Daniele.
  • Amber is driving me up the wall.
  • I'm so happy that Daniele is HOH this week. She is a GREAT game player.
  • Eric is dumb. And I can't believe Jessica might like him.
  • I think Jameka and Eric are going up Sunday. Mark my words.

Life is so awesome with God by your side.

So apparently this is not a daily blog! lol. But so much as gone on these last 10 days it's hard for me to find time. I sent out 5 resumes and I've had an interview with everyone! I'm so blessed. Today I'm having my 5th interview with Fairview Elementary School!! This is the one I want so please pray for me. God please give me the words to say. I also (Friday) had an interview with Midwest Federal Credit Union. Which is a great job. I'm hoping if the school doesn't work out that this bank will work out. (15.25 an HOUR for part time!!!!!!!!!!!) So I'm just asking all my friends and family to pray for me and my potential jobs. Other then that life is great. Megan is a perfect child. She doesn't cry much, she's happy all the time. She and her Dad had a bath Friday night. It was so cute. She loved it.







And did I mention that she is the cutest baby?? I think I have. I'm just so happy and excited where my life is leading me and my family. Recently I felt as though I hit a real low in my life. I know I have a great life and family and friends. I just didn't feel like I deserve them. And I was really down on life and upset about losing the house we wanted. So I gathered what strength I had and pray to God and just give Him the situation. I just prayed that something in my life would change. We needed money and I am and was having cabin fever with Megan lol. It's hot up here. So I just prayed that I could find a job or something that would change our lives and so I could help someone else's. So I believe that God has given me these interviews and hopefully if it's right for me I'll get the school job. So cross your fingers.


The other day I put Megan in a laundry basket and I got some cute pictures:



Now I'd like to comment on Big Brother. I am getting sick of Evil Dick and his mouth! I want him out BAD. Also I found something out that's kinda neat. I know Amber's boyfriend, Ben Veasy, he was a senior when I was a sophomore I think. They live in Las Vegas. And alot of people who know Ben and Amber in Sturgis say she really is a whiner in real life too. Which drives me insane by the way. So I'm hoping that Dick not Danielle gets voted off. But I'm not so busy now so hopefully I'll blog more often. Don't forget to pray about me.

My daughter and me!
