My Journey


Many of you don't know about the journey that I am on right now. Starting in the second week of April I started the Weight Watchers plan for weight loss. I literally decided to do it one day. I was unable to go to the meetings, because of the cost, but had support around me. Several friends were on the same diet and Matt said that he would join me. And where am I right now...29 pounds lighter, many inches smaller and totally loving life.
It has been the easiest change of lifestyle that I have ever done. I am totally dedicated and excited about all the changes. I have gone down two sizes in clothes and inching in the right direction. The past two weeks I have had slower loss, but that's because I started working out. I feel more energized, ready for each day. I am doing this for my future and for my kids...and most of all I am doing this for me!
I will keep you posted as my progress continues!!!

Gratitude Friday

Haven't done a gratitude Friday in a long time. It is nice to take a moment and realize what God has done in your life. 1. Thankful for Matt's new car. When the enemy tried to turn something good into bad, the Lord's provision overrides. 2. Thankful for all of Judah's curls. 3. Thankful for the good report at the neurosurgeon's office on Monday. We are believing for a easy repair of the malformed artery. 4. Thankful for the rain that just came down...so cleansing. 5. Thankful for His presence and His voice. 6. Thankful for my boy turning five. Oh, who knows what adventures we have before us in the future. I can't wait.

Embrace The Camera

This is the first time that I am doing Embrace the Camera. Head over to one of my favorite blogs ...www.andersonfamilycrew.blogspot.com ...and check out her Embrace the Camera day. Her goal is to have a day where you just post pictures of YOU and your kids or anyone special in your life. I have found we have had whole days, outings, vacations where I don't appear in any pictures...so sad right? One day my kids will look back and wonder where I am...haha, behind the camera. Well, that's not good enough. So, here I am. Embracing the camera with my favorite people in the world. After church on Sunday, Esther wanted to take a picture of all of us. This is an impromptu picture. I love these people. After I wanted to snap a picture of one of my favorite people...my boy William. So sweet. I love this little man...toothless and all. Thanks Emily, for continuing with the Embrace the Camera. I finally did it!
