The Fun, The Laughter, The Joy!


What a great weekend I had... It all started with dinner at the Peasner's on Friday night. Chris grilled chicken and it was DELICIOUS. Jeri and Chris are always such wonderful hosts!! On Saturday, Jen, Stephanie and Allie hosted a Joyfully Pink baby shower for Elizabeth Joy Bush and her mom, Jen. It was so much fun. Truly, everything was PINK!!

Later that evening, I had a BBQ dinner with some church friends. We told stories, caught up with each other's lives, and laughed til we nearly cried. I got home about 2 am, if that gives any indication of the fun we had. On Monday, Jen and I had a great Girl's Day Out. We didn't get a chance to do everything we wanted, but it was still wonderful to spend some quality time with my sweet daughter!!

Ahhh... Good Times!

Reality Show Junkie

Ok, I confess... I'm a reality show junkie. Give me American Idol, Deal or No Deal, One vs. 100, America's Got Talent, The Bachelor/Bachelorette, Project Runway, America's Next Top Model, The Last Restaurant Standing, Trading Spaces, Design on a Dime, Househunters, Carol Duvall, Crafters Coast to Coast, Wheel of Fortune, and on and on... I love them. I record them and when I have time, I watch them. Or, if I'm pressed for time, I speed through them and watch how they end up. I don't know why I find them so interesting, but I do.

Regarding American Idol... I have no idea who I want to win. Both David Cook and David Archuletta are awesome and I think both are going to be stars. What amazing careers they have in front of them. I also loved Syesha and know that she will also have a fabulous career. All in all, I have loved this season!!

In all things... Pray.

Really disturbing news today. My heart is breaking for a particular family and I hope you will join me in lifting them up in prayer. There is no way they will sleep tonight without peace coming to them from the Lord. I'm not even sure how they are breathing right now. Certainly they are not, unless they are totally relying on God right now.

Oh, my.... I pray for them. "God, please lift up and strengthen Cheryl and her entire family as they face the incredible challenges that are before them right now. Please help them move forward with grace, love and strength. In your name I pray..."

Jon's coming home soon!


I'm so excited that Jon is nearly finished with his 4th semester of college. It is so much fun to think about how cool it's going to be for him when he is totally finished and he gets that first real job.

It's Monday again!

Yep, it's Monday again. I literally cannot believe how fast life moves. It's been nearly two months since the wedding and WOW... it's just coming toooooooo fast these days. But, I loved this weekend. Debbie and I went to the Farmer's Market in downtown Dallas and got some pretty plants for my yard and some beautiful strawberries (for $1 per quart!), a fresh pineapple, grapefruit, bananas and plums. Yummy! Then, Debbie helped me plant the flowers and clean up my front flower bed. It looks so much better! I also got these fun new outdoor beds for Fred and Max. They are called Dogirondack chairs and they look so cute on the back patio. I think they will help keep the back yard looking a little nicer without all of the old towels, bedding and stuff that the puppies kept dragging off the porch.

Checking out for now! :)
