Late Update...

My sweet little cousin was born!


Okay, so this is a little late, but totally blog worthy....

Maren Scott was born on March 19th, 7 lbs. 12 oz.!!! (see first post)



Isn't she great!!! I won't get to meet her until June :(

Tid Bit...


Who doesn't want to loose weight or at least get into shape? My boss has lost over 80 lbs. on Weight Watchers (gasp!). I know, how awesome is that? So, a few months ago she started a "walking" class in a large conference room here at our office. There is a consistent group of about 7 of us who take an hour at lunch time and do a Leslie Sansone workout video. Check out her site here.


We have a collection of about 10 DVDs that we rotate through. I used to be sluggish after lunch and have zippo energy when I would get home after work. But now, my routine is an hour of exercise and then heat up my lunch and eat at my desk. It has really helped. Don't get me wrong, I still have those days where I'm just lazy though :) Give some of her videos a try. Believe me, they are "do-able"!!!

Another slow day at work. My boss tells us not to worry about down sizing though so I'm cool and calm.

As I'm sitting here in sheer bordem... I was thinking about how thankful I am for such an amazing husband and how proud I am of him. He reads non-stop and is constantly studying. He will be DONE with his Masters in Theological Studies at the end of August!!! What this means for us, I'm not sure, but I know God has a lot in store for us :-) God is SOO GOOD!!!

Here is a picture I found of my sweet hubs when he was younger. This picture potrays him perfectly. I must say, he was one cute kid!!!

Spring Time and LOVING IT!!!





I know it has been a while but it is a slooooowwww day at work today, so I thought I'd post :-) My love and I have been married for over a year and have nothing hanging on the wall above our bed... until now! Here is a little project I worked on. I'm not quite done with it, but for now it will do. I plan on adding a little more color and using different shaped frames other than square, but the 'L' is staying. I'm thinking I need to add some kind of glaze to the window frame itself too.

Excuse the walls, we live in an apartment and cannot paint (well, I take that back, we can paint we just have to paint it back when our lease is up, so I will just suffer for now).

Change of subject, yesterday was Easter and I thoroughly enjoyed the day. I am so thankful to be serving my RISEN Savior! Oh the change he has brought to my life! One of my favorite songs was sung yesterday... "Arise My Love" absolutely amazing!!!! I don't know who it is by but OH WOW!!! It gives me chills and makes me realize how awesome God truly is.

After church we headed out to Grandma and Grandpa's for Easter/Grandma Birthday festivities. It was a lot of fun. Good food, sweet little cousins, loving family, and GAMES!!! What could be better???!!!
