It's been a stinkin long time! Wow-
We are still waiting for our house - it's going to be ready by Aug 15th (hopefully!!). It's been quite wild around here!
Well, let's see - I quit my job on June 30th! WOWWEEEE...it's amazing how wonderful it is! I have not missed that crazy place at ALL!
I've been able to be with Kenny through all this crazy doctor stuff! But, we've been able to be together through this, so thank God for small favors!
I'm wildly pursuing my Mary Kay Dreams - I went to Seminar in July and it was fantabulous!! :) I had soo much fun and I cannot wait to do it again next year!

We are super ready to get into the house & cannot wait for the visitors that could come - the lesson that we've learned on the house is that it doesn't matter what you do or wish for - everything happens in it's own time and God has it under control!
We're ready!

Can ANYONE believe that we've already seen 1/2 of 2008 and will be soon be celebrating Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas? CRAZY things! As my Dad always used to tell me - don't wish to get older, when you do the time will fly by! And it has!

Congratulations to my Dad and Step Mom who've celebrated 10 years of marriage this year and my Moms and Pops (Kenny's parents) who've just celebrated 30 years! *Yes - Pops is super old!! :)* He loves me too! Kenny's grandparents will celebrate 50 years of marriage next month! As one commercial quotes: 2 things live forever - Love and Diamonds!! :) I know that we are soo blessed to be around couples who have worked through the tough and easy years of life and are still so much in love! I know that as we move into our 2nd year of marriage (in Jan) and our 9 years in a relationship (in December) we will absolutely have wonderful people to look up to!

While I was in Dallas for Seminar about 2 weeks ago one of the Top Directors told us to write our Eulogy - at a meeting yesterday someone was astounded that she would say that - I've completed this exercise before in college and it really changed my life. What would the 5 people who are most influential in your life say about you when you pass away? I really have to look deep within and answer those questions with honesty - and when I do - I know where I need to be. I challenge every one of you to do this same exercise and reflect on the first half of 2008 - and as we reach towards Jan 09 and go to the next chapter what will we have accomplished? What would we have let go beyond our reach? This is my 90 day journey towards commitment, excellence, and doing whatever it takes to make my dreams a reality and making God and my family as the reason why I do everything that I do! 5 months ago (almost 6) Kenny left for Houston and 5-6 months ago I set goals to where I wanted to be today - here I am with my goals half done. What would my eulogy be today and how can I change how people think by Christmas!?
Wow - that was deep I know, but it's been on my mind!
Please pray for Kenny and his health, everyone's marriage celebrations, and the many moves, changes, and goals that people are going towards in the few couple of months!

Enjoy the pictures!
