Help Keep Christ in Christmas with me!

Hello!!!

I just signed a national petition urging Target to bring back the Salvation Army bell ringers, and I would like for you to join me by clicking below:

http://www.cfra.info/243/petition.asp?PID=10196446&NID=1

Last year, you may have noticed that the bell ringers were
absent from Target. That's because the giant retailer banned
the Salvation Army from gathering money that would bring
hope to those in need during the holiday season.

Despite public outcry, Target has decided to continue the ban.

The Center for Reclaiming America for Christ is gathering
200,000 citizen petitions and will deliver them to Target
headquarters as a massive show of grassroots support for
bringing back the bell ringers!

You can help make a difference by clicking here and taking
action with me:

Thanks so much for helping to keep the true spirit of
Christmas alive in our nation!

Shopping

Call me crazy, but it's not more of a tradition! Every year we get up early and go shopping the day after Thanksgiving. This year we didn't get up till 6:30 AM, so, that's great! There were a few deals, but nothing worth being at Best Buy at like 3:30 (doors opened at 5 AM). YEAH RIGHT!!!!

Let's see, we started off going to Target, then to Best Buy (which was really calm), Michaels, Petsmart, and Office Depot. After that was breakfast at IHOP. That is my favorite part of the whole day!! I just love going there to eat.

Other than that, that is the extent of the shopping..........oh wait, no it's not. We also went to the Thrift Store in McKinney. I like going to the McKinney one, but not so much the Plano one. I don't know why, but it's just different to me. I know, I'm weird.... :)

That's definitely all the shopping I did! Now tomorrow I am sure will be a different story. My brother is in town and he LOVES to shop - so, we'll be going tomorrow too. It will be a long day I'm sure of that. I get tired of shopping after a little while and he has a whole list of places he wants to go to.

Well, I am going to bed so that I can be prepared for tomorrow. I won't sleep real well b/c my nephew is sleeping with me while they are here. He is 4 1/2 yrs. old and cute as a button. But I'm not used to sleeping with someone and he snuggles with me all night. I sleep lighter with him with me b/c I am aware of every little move he makes. After he's been with me for a few days, I get used to him and sleep better. Or am I just exhausted from not sleeping all night long??!! haha. I wouldn't change it though, he lives in MD and I don't see him that much, so, I would rather catch up on sleep later than not have him at all. Anyone who has family far away understands that last comment!!!!!

I'm hitting the hay.......goodnight all!!!

Puzzle Time

Put this puzzle together and see what you think!!! It really is fun!!!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Hello to Everyone who reads this and never writes anything :). J/K, I'm in a sassy mood right now.

Anyways, I want to wish you a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

Be safe while traveling and enjoy those you love. What are you thankful for this year? Stop and ponder on this for a moment and tell God thank you for how he has blessed your life. I am sure there are many right now that aren't feeling so blessed because a loved one is sick, a loved one has died, you are sick, family is far away, and many other reasons, but stop and look around at the creation that God has blessed us with.

I look outside right now and the sky is a gorgeous blue and the sun is smiling down on us. I see a few hawks soaring the sky looking for food. What a beautiful day God has blessed us with today.

Thank you God for all you do for me and my family/friends!

Sam

Well, this is Sam. He died at the ripe age of 14. The last 3 yrs. he has been the winner of the Ugliest Dog in the World. I can definitely see why, but I still think he is cute in his own way. I have had the privelege of being around a Chinese Crested dog before. They are really sweet, but they feel so strange. The one I was around was black and his name was Peppy. He was so cute. He did have to have lotion put on his skin daily. He also wore sun screen, etc. He definitely lived up to his name, he was Peppy!! I would play with him and he would go crazy! He was precious.

Sam this is to you...........RIP, I'm sure you were a very loving dog and I know I would have loved you too. Of course, animals have an extra big spot in my heart!!! Those who know me well know this is very true.

Time Capsule

This is really cool. You can send yourself or someone else a message in 1, 3, 5, 10 yrs. from now. I went in and sent myself one for a year from today. I can't wait to see what my life is like in a year and re-read that e-mail to see what has changed.

Enjoy! http://forbes.codefix.net/capsule/

I am getting ready to cut the cake..........SMILE!!!

The cake was awesome, it was carrot cake, one of my favorites! I don't like real sweet icing and this was a cream cheese type icing........YUMMY!!!

I'll post more pictures later. I have a picture of Kodiak & I that I want to put on here. I am thinking of using it for our Christmas card photo. I started that tradition last year. I put our pic. on cards and sent them out. They were SOO cute! Well, I need to get checking on that come to think of it.........hmmmm. I wonder when I'll have time to do that after work??

Well, that's all for now. Going to bed!

Keys to MY Heart

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free. In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored. You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change. You would be forced to break up with someone who was ruthless, cold-blooded, and sarcastic. Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets. Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are afraid of marriage. In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily.

What Are The Keys To Your Heart?

It's My B'day!!!!!

Today is my birthday and I am now 26 yrs. old. I am excited to see what this year holds for me. I'll do a recap of 25 real quick:

Last year on my b'day I was with Beth, Bonnie, Julie, Anna, Lauren, and Melanie. I hope I didn't forget anyone else. It seems like there were a few others, but I'm sorry, I can't remember. We went and ate supper in Sundance Square in Fort Worth (that's where I lived) and then after that we went to City Street and had a ball. It was raining last year on my b'day, but that's ok, we didn't let the rain stop us from having fun!!!

I was living in Fort Worth and going to Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (SWBTS) and studying Marriage and Family Counseling. Originally I was in Christian Counseling, but switched in the new year. Kodiak and I started dog training back in January; which she excelled in. I wish she was still training b/c she is really smart! I still work with her though and she's a great dog!! If you haven't ever met her, you gotta get to know her. Let's see, in May 2005 I moved to McKinney and started attending the church I grew up in. When I moved back, I met a great guy and through time of getting to know each other; we're dating now. I had a great summer. I love my job and got to travel to Peru with my job in September. As you can tell, things are going great!!

This time next year we'll see how 26 is and if I choose to move on to 27 or go back to 25. :)

I want to thank everyone involved in the surprise party last night!! You really had me fooled and that I am shocked about. :) It is usually tricky to get things past me. haha Just ask my mom........... :) I also want to thank all of my family and close friends that came out and celebrated with me. I had a cousin and her family come from the south side of Dallas and that's not close, so, THANK YOU!!! I appreciate it and I can't wait to see ya'll on Thanksgiving!!!

Side note: I was afraid that it was going to rain today, but I have already been outside with my dog and it's GORGEOUS outside!!!!! I am soo happy about that. I didn't want 2 yrs. in a row for it to rain on my b'day. 1 is sufficient enough.

Anyways, I am going to end this post now, but thank you to everyone and I love ya'll!!!

Muchas Gracias!!!

My Week

Last week was a very eventful week. I have finally had time to write about it, not that I'm not complaining though. Life has been a little crazy, but tonight I am chillin out and playing catch up.

The best thing this week was the Stars game last Wed. They played the LA Kings, we lost, but it was still great. Thank you Les. :) First thing was we rode the DART down to downtown Dallas to the West End. Caught another train that took us to the front of the American Airlines Center. There were 2 fights and one was awesome, the refs didn't stop them and they just kept punching. It's funny watching b/c they are punching, but they have so much padding on that they start to rip off their gloves and helmets. It's great. N E ways, enough about the fighting. It was a good time none the less. I think the final score was 6-2 (Kings).

Well, Sunday was just a cool day all the way around. For starters, at church, we are in a building campaign to build our sanctuary. We have been meeting in our gym for the last 3 yrs. I am very excited about the new building, I just wonder how long it will take once we break ground.
It was cool Les and I went to the NASCAR races out at Texas Motor Speedway (www.texasmotorspeedway.com) after church. It was fun, but I really liked it once the sun went down. I could really see the cars a whole lot better after the sun was a little out of my eyes. I want to say thank you to Jimmy and Brennan. More than likely they'll never read this, but thank you. Also, I would advise anyone that goes, make sure you have your ear plugs. If we hadn't had ear plugs, I would not hear about now........ :) I have never heard such a high pitched noise before........it was cool. I really like that sound, but wow, that was piercing.
I'd have to say though, if I had to pick NASCAR or the amateur races in Greenville, I would pick Greenville anyday! Like I told Les, NASCAR is very formal and I am more into the informal. I did enjoy NASCAR though!

Well, I am going to go for now and write another blog and read some of my friends' blogs too.
