Hmmmm...

Someone will always be prettier.
Someone will always be skinnier.
Someone will always be smarter.
Some of their houses will be bigger.
Some will drive a better car.
Their children will do better in school.
And their husband will fix more things around the house..
So let it go, and love you and your circumstances.
Think about it!

The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her heart.
And the most highly favored
woman on your job may be unable to have children.
And the richest woman you know,
she's got the car, the house, the clothes~~~~
might be lonely. And the word says, 'If I have not Love, I am nothing.'
So, again, love you.
Love who you are.
Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say,
'I am too Blessed to be Stressed and too Anointed, to be Disappointed!'
'Winners make things happen~~
Losers let things happen.'

Yeah for ICE!!

Last night I was sitting at home watching the news like most people trying to see what was going to happen with our crazy Texas weather. I looked at my sister and said lets go shopping! So we went. David was griping "your so dumb why would you go out in this?" We went shopping and went and got our nails done. Both place closed early as we left and I was getting a little annoyed with people freaking out about the ice. There was no ice on the road it was just raining at that point. So then we went and bought groceries and then headed home. I tell you the BEST time to go shopping is during the "winter weather." We were the only people at Dots, the only people at the nail place and later on about eleven David and I went to Walmart and there were 5 cars in the parking lot! Thats it 5!! It was great. I did not have any ice on my windows until we had almost made it home around midnight. Call me crazy but I cannot be cooped up!

So I woke up at five and saw that the temperature was 20 degrees! WOW! I went to the MISD website (because the news channels do not report accurate closings according to our district) and saw NO SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!! We never close for inclement weather! SO I went back to bed and just woke up. Now though I am a little frustrated. I hate being behind and now we have to make this day up at the end of the year when we are all so tired! Plus, our principal was going to let us wear sweats today ): Now I look outside and see that it is all gone- no more ice. Hmmmmmmmmm......

And the most hilarious thing about all this is that I realize that in some way I am still a kid. I remember watching the news for hours waiting for my school district to show up on the closing list. As an adult, I am no different. I knew school was closed and I still made David leave the TV on until I saw Mesquite Independent School District scroll across the screen and as I did I giggled and clapped. David called me a nerd but I know he was secretly excited for me too!

More Christmas Pics

I know it has almost been a month ago, but I left my camera cord at school over the break and just now remembered to upload all my photos. Here are a few....














I love the picture of London and the baby we got her for Christmas. She is such a sweet "mommy". Every year when I ask what she wants- she always tells me babies or mateup. (Makeup)

Here are a few pics of our PJ party with Granny.





Then to one of my favorite presents of all time. You know you have been good when you see this under your tree....


I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new purse. Thanks Mom & Dad!

Counting down til April!

I was supposed to leave yesterday for Vegas but there has been a change in plans. Mom and I have been brainstorming what to do for my Dad's 50th birthday this April. We wanted to do something he would really enjoy. He never asks for anything and is always the one who has sacrificed for us or would be happy with just a card so we want to give him a birthday to remember. We decided to take a trip!

I am so excited!!!!!!! It is also my granny's 70th and my cousin Jaime will be celebrating her 10th anniversary. It is going to be a huge family trip and I can't wait!!
