Should I feel bad?

JULY 17th- I am turning a .... are you ready for this..... a QUARTER OF A CENTURY! How horrible does that sound? I am not a big fan of that thought but...I am happy at what 25 means for me. Another year of a wonderful husband, an angel son that I could not adore more and more family and friends then an girl could ever dream of being blessed with. I LOVE YOU ALL. Wanna know what is cool? My dad is turning a 1/2 a century this year. That's cool! Happy day to you all!

What a feeling. ONE BOOK DOWN

Well I have completed my FIRST book in the Summer Reading Thingy club :) The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands" by Dr. Laura Schlessinger and I must say... it IS as good as she says it is. I would recommend anyone that is married and can take some "constructive criticism" read it- but with a very open mind. While reading I thought "wow that is not me at all, thank goodness for that" while other parts I might of read and wished it wasn't me but deep down had to admit, it hit home a little. As women I think we have a lot of things in commen in our needs and personality overall- it's worth taking the time and learning a few things. I must say I have already put in to action some things from the book and that has led to better situations. So now on to my next endeavor....! Happy Reading all!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY MOM TODAY. :)

Truckers Chapel?? Only in the south. GIRLS NIGHT is every Wednesday, Love the girls out here- so much fun. And last is the Missionary Zone Conf. We got asked to buy, cook and serve lunch to the whole zone, we had a great time, it was a good opportunity. :)

We are having so much fun and miss you all so much. Hope you all had a happy Fouth of July. We didn't even watch or light ONE firework...is that lame? ok I know it is, but we had fun hanging out with our friends and watching movies. We have played TONS of tennis lately and the office has had some intense dodgeball games. Remember---if you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball. Our big news is that on JULY 5th Taylor CRAWLED for the first time and now he is unstoppable. It took him ONE day to master it. I can't believe how mobile he is now. YIKES! His favorite thing to crawl around the house after is his beach ball. Everyone here is in LOVE with Taylor....he has so many friends. We hardly hold him at church because he gets passed around his buddies. This last week James and I went on a date w/ some friends to Medieval Times, we had a great time. PS. Since I started writting this blog I have gotten up 4x to move Taylor from playing with things he shouldn't. He keeps me on my toes. What else.... we got an XBOX 360 and I got the game Dance Dance Revolution and I'm having a BLAST playing it, talk about a CARDIO workout, it's HARD! Hope all is well. Miss you all very much and for those of you that have NOT heard the news, I will not be coming home in July. I am flying home Sept. 1st, long story short the whole massage school thing FELL through, I'm pretty distraut over it, but that is life so - the good news is we get to stay with James. Always a +. See you in September. Keep in touch.

This is a great way to pull me away from the pool and dive my nose into my books.
