Pretty Awesome Weekend

Weekends like these I don't want them to end. I must say it was a pretty awesome weekend. Friday night there was a girls sleep over at my church. The Jr and Sr High girls was pretty good turn out.There was like 20 girls there.Some of us played manhunt,apples to apples,football,and soccer.Some did the girly girl things like nails and stuff.We watched the movie Soul Suffer.Then we talked about things we fear and don't expect to happen.That have happen to us or someone we know.Made a list of all kinds of things. Friends committing suicide,drugs and alcohol,divorce,lost of loved ones,rape,cancer,abuse,lost of sight,to lose a leg,terminal illness, list goes on. We tried to put pants on with one arm and put our hair up with one hand.We sang a few songs after that.Some the girls on the puppet team put together a goodbye show for the leader of the puppet team.She will be moving to Texas around Thanksgiving with her family.So at like 4 half us were still awake.So needless to say I did not get much sleep.Sat was our church picnic that lots of people had to get up early for to get ready for.I wanted to go but ended up not going to.I did not have enough sleep to drive to the place where it was.So I was driving home from church and seen a yardsale sign.So I went home to see if the roomie wanted to go with me.So we went to go check it out and was there for while it was like a cheap book store.I got 4 books for 7$ in great condition like brand new.The roomie got 2 books for $3.The books I got ranging from $15-23 in the store brand new.I would say that is a great deal.So then we came home she cooked her some breakfast.We started getting stuff out the garage to make load for the Kidney Foundation to pick up.I got a call from my dad to see if I wanted to join him and my brothers bowling.I told him im like im not sure I am so tired and don't really got the money.He like if you have gas money to get her I will pay.So hung up thought about it for second then like well heck I don't see them often so I will just go.So went and bowled 2 games which I won 1 and they killed me the second game.Then came home tried to take like hour nap before I had to get ready to go out again.Then mean while im on FB and seen that some our friends from church got engaged.So excited he turned 21 yesterday and proposed to his girlfriend on his birthday.Had dinner with my roomie family.We watched the first half of the Gators game which was not good at all.We had bunch random conversations.Then came home and there was no way I could go to sleep there was a bright light from the neighbors party shining in my window.So I went out an joined the party.Played corn hole most of the time.Come in around like 3 when things started dying down.Got up at 9 got ready for church.After church went with few friends to outback to eat lunch.Came home took like hour nap. Got up cleaned my car and some what clean my room and started load clothes.So yes it has been pretty awesome weekend hanging with friends and family.Hanging with family don't happen often.

No my team is better!!

Friends become family

This has been one busy year.

They say time flies when your having fun.This year has flown by pretty quick.I guess when you stay as busy as I do it does go by pretty quick.Every year has it good and bad times.I started this blog early this morning and look what time it is almost a new day and new year.So I will fill you in with more info on ups and downs for the 2010 year some time in the next few days.Until then I am going to enjoy the fire and watch the ball drop.2011 Baby!! It is now 2 days into the new year and looks like it is going to be a busy one.I wish I could break it down month for month for you but my memory is not that good.2010 has had it's ups and downs that for sure.The down part is all the family drama.I will just leave it at this.I am more of an adult when it comes down to it.It has been a fun year with friends.Beach trips with friends are always fun.Catching up with old friends and meeting new friends is always fun.I have been really invovled with church stuff this year.It has been really fun working in the different areas at church.I would have to say I think the funnest part this year is Bush Garden with the Teens spending the day with my little brother.The most exciting news came in Feburary from my two best friends.That they were both engaged and getting married and wanted me to be part of that.They have both had there ups and downs with things.One friend did not work there issues out so no wedding on November 13, 2010 like planed.The other one is in process of planning.The set date is April 17, 2011.The saddest news was seen on TV the Haiti Earthquake.I love me some sports.This was a good year for the Rays.Got to go to a New York Yankees vs Rays game.Great memory there A*Rod got 10th strike out to get me pizza.He was trying to hit 600 home runs coming stright from the bench in like the 7th or 8th inning.I went to the last post season game for the Rays when they played the Rangers.I also went when they played the Angels.I also went when they played the Jays and seen John Forgety afterward.I got to go see Brandon Heathe and Jars of Clay in concert at near by church.I also got pictures and autographs with them all.great birthday present from my cousin.This Christmas has been like the best Christmas ever for me.All the Christmas things that went on at chruch or off site at other places but was to serve him.Puts a smile on my face to see the kids expression in all the things I took part in.Just with the church events it was awsome Christmas season.I rather give than recive for the most part.So I did end up getting 4 kids off the salvation army tree.Getting bunch things for them.I also helped out with an event for people at my church.So it was a giving year for me.In return I got a very unexpect present.A newer car which was something I been wanting for a while.So I got to say GOD IS AWESOME!!!

Loving It

Well I have been slacking big time on this.I started out doing really well then it has been down hill for while.I have been a busy little bee like always.Between church functions,work,coaching basketball and playing softball.Then I squeeze in some time with friends and family.I love this time the year.I love to buy for other people.Then I tend to put myself in a jam for it.But in th end it all seems to work out great.So there has been some ups and downs in the past few weeks or so.Im stick with all the good.Im not giving all the facts we would be here all night.So my dad and I are semi getting along for now.(knock on wood).I am now the maid of honor in my best friends wedding.:)One my friends fixed my car for pretty much nothing.I got call from my grandmother Monday she was buying me a newer car.I love my life.I love my amazing friends.The one thing I really really wanted more than anything for Christmas and did not even tell anyone was a car knowing not many could afford it.So yeah this Christmas is by far the best. God is AWESOME!!! He made a way for me to get stuff for all that I planned for and some.Money is a factor everyone stress about but put your trust in him and it will work out. I love this little thing called my life.So this weekend is pretty planned out for me.Got a church function tomorrow got to help set up decorate all that jazz.Then Sunday is church,Christmas at my aunts and then the annual ELF party at a friends.

Holiday Spirt

Holiday spirt is kicking in to gear.I love this time of the year.I have a huge heart for giving.I tend to get myself in to trouble in the long run.Got to set some goals this year and say no limit myself.When a family grows as big as mine has in past year it makes it harder.Money does not go that far these days on stuff.$20 can go in like a spilt second.It more so outfit or a toy for each the boys this year or a few small gifts.Thinking like $15-25 limit on each one the boys.I can not go all out like I did last year for the boys.Plus this year my step sisiter will be here.My brother will get more from me than the other three.Yes I love them too but he is my blood and I love him to death so yeah.Price wise I think if I try stay under $20 for them I will be fine.I just love shopping and spending money and helping others.In the long run it gets me in to trouble.I am not trying to put myself in a hole.There are so many other little things I like to do also for the holidays.I like to get toys and stuff for salvation army kids.I have done that for like 5-7 years now.For the past 3 years now I have been visting the Children Home so we try rasie money to get them things as well.Then all the little party get together rather it be with friends or co-workers.Always got to get small things for that.It all adds up after while.Im trying not to over do it as bad as I want to.I guess I get this from my grandmother the giving part and the joy of it.She loved giving and my brothers and I always got more than the other grandkids.For the smiple fact is that my parents struggled to make due.I am so ready for black friday to get here.I am taking my little brother along yes he can help me out with the other 3.Plus he must try on some stuff cause he is growing like weed.He at the age where I don't know what to get either and he can know most the stuff he is getting.When I was his age I knew just about everything I was getting.Maybe like 2-5 things I didn't.I will be shopping for few kids,friends and family.It should make for fun long day.Getting to spend the day with my brother.

Girls Night

Well I did not get a chance to write yesterday cause my labtop works when it wants.So it was down yesterday but working today.I really need to get a new one that would be sweet.So that is my Christmas list even though my birthday comes before then.LOL.Last night was a lot fun hanging out with some girls from church at my aunts house.The weather was amazing started out with rides on motrocycle till dark.Then we went in made pizza and talked.After the pizza was done we made brownies.Then started playing apples to apples.Kind of forgot about brownies till we smelt somthing burning.Cought it just in time before they burnt all the way.They were boiling over on one side.So back to apples it was til they cooled off.That game is always fun no matter what.We attempted to play dance revolution some of us.Then my aunt had this paper for us to do.That got our brains thinking.It was a parahgraph telling a story but with in it there were books of the Bible.In the first one there was 16 books.The second one had 22 books.The last one had 30 books.Then before I knew it was midnight.I was like I need to head knowing im going to be out late tonight.So glad that it is only like 5min away if that cause I was tired.I came home watched some the Braves game and was out.

Is He For Real

I always find something out through good old facebook or myspace when it comes to family.Some things being good some being bad.In this case it is a good thing but at same time we shall see.If you only knew how my brother is you would understand this a little more.He made a post and it said "Never thought I would be saying this but im going back to school."So few his friedns made comments to the post downing him already.It will be a good thing for him but he a type that gives up easy when it comes to school.He has few things he needs to change in order for this to work.It will be a lot of work for what he is going for firefighting/emt I think.So just keep him in your prayers as he works toward something.
