All about me!

I know when you see the title you are thinking "well that's selfish." One thing that my new and wonderful has allowed me to do is to take some time for myself. So every night when I put Landon to bed and get my house in order I get to just sit and watch TV or read a book (for fun), finish up some projects around my house, do homework, go to bed early, whatever I want. I don't think I have ever had a job that allowed me to come home every night at a reasonable time, make dinner, spend much needed time with Landon and time with myself (nights that Scott is home I get to spend time with him).

These last 4 months have been just what I needed. God is so good and provides what we need, when we need it. The Bible talks about not worrying about what tomorrow will bring. This is something that I have always struggled with. Recently I have changed the way I think; why worry about tomorrow when tomorrow is completely out of our control. Only God knows what is going to happen and only He can control it. We need to focus on today otherwise we miss out on all of wonderful things that life has in store for us.

All we need to remember is that God is in control and He will always provide what we need, when we need it (He always keeps His promises)!!

Spring is in the air

Wow what a year! Scott has just wrapped up his first year of tumbling and about to finish his second semester at Asbury. Last Friday Landon and I went to see the tumbling show that Scott, the other coaches, and students have been working on. It was so amazing!! I was so proud of Scott and the rest of the team.

As the year starts slowing down for Scott it is really starting to pick up for me. I have decided to make a pretty big life change. Last Sunday at a work meeting it was officially announced that I will no longer be working at Apple full time. I accepted a full time position with a company called Loxone here is Lexington. I was hired on to fill the role of Internet Marketing. I am really excited to get started. I feel so honored that they hired me without any work experience (in marketing) and with a year left of school! Scott and I decided that I will also be working at Apple part time at least for a couple of months. So like I said things are getting busy for me here...which is just the way I like it.

In an instant!

This has been a crazy week! Last Thursday I was in a car accident. It is a long story but the important thing is that everyone was ok. I broke my thumb and that was the only injury (it could have been a lot worse)! Thank God Landon was not with me. I just found out today that I will have to have minor surgery to prevent future issues with my thumb nail. You know this has been nothing compared to the news I learned about my cousin's son the day after my accident. Joel (my cousin's 6 year old son) was diagnosed with leukemia. They have done a biopsy to see what type of leukemia he has and they will get the results of that later this week. This has completely broken my entire family's we are such a close family that when one person is hurting we are all hurting. I can't even imagine going through this with Landon. Everything that has happened this week just proves that EVERYTHING can change in an instant; don't take one second for granted!!

Please pray for healing for Joel, comfort, rest, and peace for his parents and his twin brother Nathan who is completely heartbroken and lost without his best friend and brother!

Awesome find!

Last night I was exploring the internet and cleaning out my email. One site that I love looking at just for fun is totsy.com. They have such cute things for moms and kids of all ages at really really good prices. One of the deals currently going on is for a company call Wummel Box. How it works; every month you get a Wummel Box full of materials for 2 to 3 activities or craft (they provide all the materials; paper, glue sticks, scissors, etc.) and you get to create and learn with your child!

This is one of the coolest things ever for kids. If Landon was older I would be doing this with him.

Not much has changed

I'm sure that nobody really cares about why I have not posted anything lately. Honestly nothing is new. Personally I think that is a good thing; like most people I like change but sometimes it is good to just have things be the same. We have been really enjoying our time in Wilmore and our time together as a family. I decided to take a break from blogging for a couple of reasons. During the holiday months work is really really busy (it is crazy when you work in retail). I wanted to take some time to focus both on school and my family amidst my crazy work schedule. I am now back and looking forward to getting back to blogging more often than I have in the past. To keep myself from getting overwhelmed I am going to be keeping my posts pretty short. So stay tuned I'll be posting my app of the week soon!!
