Confessions: Valentine's Edition

  Time to Confess!!   I confess: I had a great Valentine's Day.   I confess: I was spoiled. An anniversary band to go with my wedding ring, flowers, a coffee mug, and a stuffed animal.   I confess: I spoiled Mister Husband as well. A new leather motorcycle vest, pictures in frames, and a plant for his desk at work.   I confess: The kids got spoiled too. Candy and tickets to a Utah Jazz game in a couple weeks.   I confess: We spent our Valentine's at the bowling alley. Wasn't the most romantic outing, but I was with my honey (and my son) so it was good :)   I confess: When we got my ring last weekend, they gave us a gift card for a free pound of See's Candy. I am officially 4lbs heavier this week than normal.

Valentine's Day 2013

Valentine's Day is more to me than flowers and candy... it was 5 years ago on this day that Bryan stole my heart. I was in a funk over something's my ex-husband was doing and Bryan pulled through and restored my faith in the opposite sex. Because of his sweet ways with me and my kids, I fell in love with him that day and knew he was who I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.

Mister Husband, I love you with everything in me. Be Mine, always and forever.

Let. It. Go.



How to stop running the show and start walking in faith... Love it!!


I am doing an online bible study with some ladies from my church... we meet on Wednesday nights to discuss what we've read. We just started this last week and already this book as touched me. It's talking about not being in control... and it's ok to let go of the control. It talks about control in marriage. It talks about having a healthier marriage. I am only a few chapters in, but I can't wait to read more.

Friday Confessions 02-08-13

  Another Friday... another time to confess!   I Confess: My shoulder feels better, my elbow feels worse. Dang ice! Went back to the Dr today and nothing is broken... but she thinks there is soft tissue problems. So meds and PT are in my future.   I Confess: I really didnt care the outcome of the Dr appt as long as she said I could take that dang sling off. And she did, so I am much happier!   I Confess: My girl didnt make the team... he has enough guards in older players. Bummer. However she showed so much heart and ability, that he asked her to be the team manager, as a 7th grader. Yay!   I Confess: I dont like that I've spent more time with my ex-husband this week than I have with Mister Husband. Freaking get back from Puerto Rico already will you, Bry?!   I Confess: It was a crazy week... alot going on at work and at home. I felt stretched like you wouldnt believe, but I made it. Here we are at Friday and it's almost time for the weekend. Sleeping in and relaxing are in my future... with a lot of snuggles with my hubby who's getting home late tonight.   What are you confessing?!

I Confess 02-01-13

    I Confess: I've had an emotional week.   I Confess: It started with a monsterous snowstorm where I slipped in my driveway and fell on my arm. Yup, my shoulder is slightly dislocated and my elbow has a bleed. Praying it didnt do any damage to my fused neck.   I Confess: I found out that a soccer mom I am friend with is losing her battle to cancer. 4 years ago she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. It came back over a year ago in other organs. She told us this week that her body isnt responding to treatments and she is going to spend the rest of her time and energy just being with her family. Broke my heart. She has young kids. She is an amazing person.   I Confess: Hearing about my friends prognosis sent me into hysterics. That could have been my mom. Thank God for healing her.   I Confess: I have a presentation to give next week that I am a little freaked out about. Hundreds of people. On a topic that is a change in our process that people arent totally thrilled about.   I Confess: My hubby is going out of the country again next week. I hate when he is gone.   I Confess: My daughter has been going to basketball camp all week and tryouts for the Jr High team are Mon/Tues. Good luck sis!!   I Confess: PTC didnt go so well for Drew yesterday. They said he's been having some behavior issues. He says he feels left out.... left out at home b/c his sister is getting too big and with her friends a lot now. Left out at school b/c he goes for resource reading help and misses things in his class.... but more importantly left out by his dad b/c he only takes him 4x a month now instead of what he had. Unfortunatly there is nothing I can do to help wiht that b/c his dad told me last night he is too busy. Breaks my heart for my little boy. He's my tenderheart.    

Happy Birthday TunaFish

 

Thirteen years ago yesterday on a snowy morning,we left for the hospital to have my little girl. Doesn't matter what you call her (TylerNicole, peanut, TyTy, tunafish, T-Nic, etc.), she has become an amazing young lady. She is wise beyond her 13 years, she is beautiful, she is smart, and she loves Jesus. 

She is a social butterfly, a sneaky junk food hider (Im on to you!), a basketball player, a Patriots football fan, a Nursery/Preschool teacher, and a friend to all.

Ty, I am so proud to be your momma. I love you so much. You're a blessing to me and your BryDad. Hope you had a wonderful birthday sis!!
