Happy Birthday!


Happy Birthday Bubby! Today my husband turns 37 years OLD! I would just like to take a moment to pay tribute to a wonderful man. Jim and I have grown up together our whole life. We have been together for 24 years now. I have watched him grow into a loving, responsible, mild mannered man of God. He is a fantastic father and loves his girls very much. He is an awesome husband to me and a tremendous partner in this life. When I used to day dream of what the perfect man would be, I would have never guessed it could be this good. Happy Birthday Baby! I love You!!!!

My Parents house

Yesterday morning at 6:08 am, my parents house was broken into. There are no words to describe the damage that was done. They stole nothing but destroyed everything. Detectives said if anyone had been home, they probably would have been killed. This was done with such rage and violence that it even shocked the police. They kept asking if my parents had any enemies. Everything that they had and worked so hard for is gone. The police responded in 11 minutes to this call. When you see the damage, it doesn't seem possible. There was quite a bit of blood splattered all over the walls, doors, bed covers and floors. One guy has already been arrested and charged. There are more but he isn't talking yet. What is my ridiculous miracle? That my parents weren't home. They are in Florida teaching the Word of God. Their life has been spared. All things will work together for good...

Fireproof

So Jim and I and some friends (Alicia & Ivan Nunez & Julie & Mike Hook) went to see the movie Fireproof tonight. If you are married, have ever been married, ever plan on getting married or need to learn about relationships, you MUST see this movie. I will admit that some of the acting at times may have been a little cheesy but the over all message was awesome! Jim and I have been married for almost 18 years and at the beginning, it was BAD! I tell people who are in the same situation our whole testimony because it was really aweful. I don't think you would know that by how we are today. Let's put it this way - Lazarus rising from the dead after four days is nothing compared to what God did with us. So much violence and hatred...seems like a lifetime ago. We actually even got divorced. All things were final and we had moved on. There was no way we would be a family. Long story short...we've been married 18 years in December, God is good, we are happier than we have ever been, and our family is whole. Go see this movie!

mid-week service

Oh my gosh...church was OFF THE HOOK tonight!!! I know, I know -your thinking mid week services are not usually where you leave completely pumped and ready. All I have to say is - then you have never been to New Vision!! I'm telling you that in the next couple of months big things are going to be happening to me, my family, my business, my church, my friends, and yes, even my enemies! I am ready to be turned upside down and inside out. I am ready to live life to the fullest and experience the unexpected. I'm ready to spread contagious joy to everyone I know. I'm ready to change my whole outlook on life. I'm ready to shock the unshockable and love the unloveable. I'm ready to be a force to be reckoned with. I'm ready to look in the mirror and not even recognize myself. I'm ready to shake my family up from the inside out. I'm ready...I'm ready...I'm ready...and just think...this was just a Wednesday night service...wait til sunday!

About a week

Well we have about a week left before we go. I'm really excited and dreading the drive all at the same time. Have a lot to get done before next Tuesday and a lot of work too. If you are a client and reading this...better get in this week! We need a good rest and some family time. I'm trying to figure out how to send twitter pictures before I go but I'm not there yet.

this week

This week cannot end soon enough. You know how you start feeling around the time you're going on vacation. I want to hurry up and get it all done so I can go. 10 days left!!! I have been pretty slow this week. Alot of people canceled because of the wind storm last Sunday. They either don't have power or they are home with their kids 24/7 because of school being canceled. Ready to get back on schedule because I need some money for vacation!!
