Successful Sunday

Well, got up ths morning, commanded my morning (a declaration I've been doing every morning this year- Commanding Your Morning by Cindy Trimm), got ready, went to church, had an interest meeting for our youth/young adult trip to Costa Rica this coming July, then I went and did an 11.5 mile run.  I'm not as fast as I want to be, but I run every step- no walking.  I'm glad for my persistence and perserverance, and pray that as I continue to get more in shape and loose more weight that my pace will get better. 

Now, as you can imagine, I am BUSTED tired :-)

Gonna lay and watch a movie and go to bed. 

Sleepy Saturday

Well, after a sleepless night... I had a leadership meeting for my church... went and did another taste test for Emmi... came home and slept for about 3 1/2 hours... then got up and started working on documents for our Costa Rica meeting tomorrow.  Just been trying to take care of ministry business this evening.  Now bout to try to take care of sleeping business :-)

OH Friday

Well, tonight I am helping lead a slumber party for teenage girls from my church... fun times :-)

I got to go get my young friend Shannon and spend a little time with her before the party started... we've been hanging, playin games, doin make-up, having some deep conversation, etc.  Now a movie is on.

So thankful I made it out of those years :-)

Hopefully I'll get to sleep a lil... yeah right.

Day 3 :-)

Today I slept a lil late, which I was very grateful for!!!

I went for my first run of 2013- 5 miles.  Almost died considering I had gotten used to running in cooler weather in Texas and Tulsa.  It knocked me out. 

Went to the chiropractor.  I'm glad she is a female... otherwise I might try to marry her.  Love it!

Went over to do a taste test... helping a young friend, Emmi, with her science fair experiment :-)

Met with my friend Brian to hash out some details for an upcoming youth/young adult conference and summer mission trip. 

That was my day in a nutshell :-)

Love you all!

Day 2 of 2013

Today I continued trying to play catch up... ran errands, went and spent time with the kiddos that I have babysat for the past 2 1/2 years... trying to get stuff done for some church events coming up...

trying to unpack...

etc.

not much that's noteworthy :-)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Well, it is a new year, and here I go again attempting to post on a daily basis :-)

Last night was the launch of the young adult ministry for my church.  I am leading this ministy and I am super excited about it.  We had a New Year's Eve party, and I think it went well.  It had an 80's theme, and we had a lot of fun, and hopefully some hearts were touched and commitments made for 2013. 

(I'm trying to add a pic here from the party, but it won't let me... I'll try again later... you will wanna check it out!!!  :-)

The last guest left around 4:15am.  I went to bed around 4:30am, and got up around 11am.  Exhausted :-)

And of course I just landed back in California yesterday afternoon after 3 amazing weeks with my family. 

Today I've had a bit of a headache and have mostly just tried to keep my head above water, ran a few errands, etc. 

I have made some New Year's Resolutions, so I will share here:
1- Drink nothing but water for all of 2013
2- Run 3 half marathons and 1 full marathon
3- Strive to become a more virtuous woman

I pray you all have had an exceedingly blessed New Year's Day and have a fabulous 2013!!!

Sunday Sunday Sunday

Today was a good day.  Went to church- I <3 my church!  Then went and grabbed lunch with my girl Shannon.  Then goofed off with her at the house for a bit, hung with the pastor's family a bit, then got to work on school stuff.  It ain't all done, but I am!

So, love and blessings to you all!
