MY BIRTHDAY

Yes, it is. Today is my 39th Birthday!!!! I feel great!! I'm glad I started weight watchers when I did, because now I'm getting in shape and losing weight and feeling better about myself. I didn't get weighed in last week because I was at the doctor's so I figured their scale was good enough. According to their scale (and my new one at home) I have lost a total of 27.4lbs!!! How cool is that. I bought my first pair of size 12 jeans the other day. They we're $50 at Kohls, but they we're half price so I got them for $25.00. I was so excited from a size 16 down to a size 12. I wanted to get in shape before I turned 40, so I'm on my way. I am actually in Albany, NY right now on the hotel computer. I got up early this morning to work out and just finished. Chris had a football league meeting yesterday so we came up for the weekend. It's been a nice relaxing weekend. Stephanie has my kids and they have been trading fevers, throwing up, and just feeling crummy so I'm gonna owe her big time. We have vacation this week so at least they'll have some time to recover. I'm hoping they'll be better by the time I get home so we can actually enjoy the vacation. We were out of our house for almost all of last week because my landlord was redoing our kitchen. I wasn't to thrilled about it at first because I was going to be losing cabinet space, but I actually was able to fit my stuff back in the cabinets and it looks great. I have a dishwasher now....I haven't had a chance to use it yet, because the electrician was finishing up when we left on Friday. So when I get home today I will be able to actually use it. Thanks Stephanie for taking care of us this week!!!! Have a great day everyone!!! I love ya!!!

Battle Cry (continued)

So we went back to Battle Cry today and were there until the end tonight about 9:30pm. We got to meet Kirk Franklin, he even hugged us and Miranda got to meet and take pictures with this band "Unhindered" which was Amazing. They were really great. Chris got to meet David Tyree and get his autograph. We all had an amazing time. You can check out the pictures at www.pixagogo.com/5749664125. Have a great day!!!

BattleCry

Hey everyone. It's been a while since the last blog, so I apologize. I've had a lot of stuff going on. Well, first note when I went to weight watchers on last Tues they said I gained 8 ounces. Which I'm not suprised because I had been eating like crazy, especially at the Super Bowl Party. But I've actually gone down since then, so I'm still doing okay. My friend Stephanie bought me a scale for an early birthday present and I'm so thrilled. She is so good to me. Don't know what I'll do without her when she moves to Texas. Guess I'll just have to move too. :) Not any time soon though, but maybe eventually. So anyways, I'm not sure if I will go to WW anymore or just weigh myself at home on Tuesday nights. I guess I'll have to see. Steph's husband's new job is with TeenMania Ministries and they put on the youth ralley BattleCry this weekend at the Izod Center in East Rutherford, NJ. Todd got us all access passes, so Chris & I went last night and we had an awesome time. We got to meat TD Jakes and Chris even had TD Jakes pray over him. It was amazing. There were lots of bands too and we are going back today. Kirk Franklin, Mariano Rivera, David Tyree, Ron Luce and many others are going to be there today. We're going to bring Miranda with us today, I know she will really love it. It's so amazing to see all those youth committing their lives to Christ. Not to mention the bands!!!!! I love loud Bands!!! Cross Movement, David Crowder and some other bands are there....very cool. They'll have some drama today too, which I'm really looking forward too. So, that's what's going on here. We still need your prayers when you think of us, but things are looking up. Well, at least I am!!! Looking up to God for my strength. Love to you all.
