The Fourth of July started out with a gloomy overcast day. Then the rain came. Relaxed on our comfy sofa. By mid afternoon the clouds were gone, rain dry, and the sun was in full swing. We decided before dinner to bring out the fire works...someone did not like them at all at first!! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhycJQrkvQSE_ZXCjBgFsHncBF-CaNkK-N1dfnfrZN6dMzelrh4JjvveR2VH1ofnRIiHnfxl-2Yj4c460l65YKsVucR4fFdW7bu57nw9_-1jk_hmhIIvIHXyI_4ltPeIVPgPMz8VGhLAPu-/s1600/273.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhycJQrkvQSE_ZXCjBgFsHncBF-CaNkK-N1dfnfrZN6dMzelrh4JjvveR2VH1ofnRIiHnfxl-2Yj4c460l65YKsVucR4fFdW7bu57nw9_-1jk_hmhIIvIHXyI_4ltPeIVPgPMz8VGhLAPu-/s320/273.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>

How much my life has changed.<br />
<b>How much I have changed. </b><br />
This time last year, I was contemplating whether to start going back to church regularly.<br />
I was wondering if I could really commit to becoming active after being in-active for 13 plus years.<br />
Could I do it alone.<br />
Then I had people start to come into my life, that made it much easier to make that decision.<br />
I have been full heartily back in the church for almost a year.<br />
I feel so deeply grateful for my decision to gain my testimony back and how it has impacted my life in a year.<br />
I feel so deeply grateful to have the support of my husband.<br />
I am so grateful to have true happiness again in my heart.<br />
<br />
I am grateful and with out words as to how the past year has turned out.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16586327939597979335noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129379469835783592.post-87919994512779598642011-11-01T18:30:00.000-07:002011-11-01T18:30:08.424-07:00My November GratitudeLast year I posted something I was grateful for each day in November. I loved doing it so this year I am doing it again...so here we go!<br />
Day 1:<br />
Having Diversity in my life! Each one of us in our family is so different, which makes for an interesting day.<br />
Me: Clean Freak, total Type A personality. (I think that says enough)<br />
Johnny: Funny, Makes us all laugh at least once a day, Hard Hard worker, Puts up with my Type A<br />
Hayden: Loves to draw, ask questions, very inquisitive about things, even being 6yrs old<br />
Raygen: Loves to learn, read, Type A like mom, Loves to organize, sort, funny personality, just like her daddy.<br />
<br />
We are all so different, and it makes it so we are never bored!! Makes me fall in love with them, more each day!!Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16586327939597979335noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129379469835783592.post-64473028484833753402011-07-04T22:46:00.000-07:002011-07-05T12:56:06.499-07:004th of July<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We had an AMAZING 4th of July!! We started with a pancake breakfast this morning, and then off to the park! The kids did their favorite things: Hayden rode his bike, and Raygen obsessively played on the slide over and over again. In the late afternoon family and friends arrived and we ate, hung out, and rode up the street to the desert and lit fireworks for a while. Since we live on the outskirts of town we were able to see the entire Valley and all the Fireworks going on! It was an amazing end to an amazing week, Thank you babe for making my birthday one of the best yet, and a wonderful 4th with our family and friends!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJnFppDIyHyb2b-6DCKHYnBiihsI76KNsVVjWHj7Ud_Tlj3_eNMFx5KHEX0uhOYu7tee720fL96rbQFNW2PDUqzQsw-pXO80Mb_AwWu4bvGNW4evFFk3z5KOH55kd_uIdE8sQFXIOpvobQ/s1600/085.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJnFppDIyHyb2b-6DCKHYnBiihsI76KNsVVjWHj7Ud_Tlj3_eNMFx5KHEX0uhOYu7tee720fL96rbQFNW2PDUqzQsw-pXO80Mb_AwWu4bvGNW4evFFk3z5KOH55kd_uIdE8sQFXIOpvobQ/s320/085.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16586327939597979335noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129379469835783592.post-69585536823296774512011-07-02T21:55:00.000-07:002011-07-02T21:55:49.955-07:00Sunday Look BackTwo years ago on Wednesday at 8:16 am I got introduced to my beautiful baby girl.

This was taken during the week I first held my son. I wish it was the first time I held him, but I will always settle for this picture because of the look I was receiving from my little fighter! As many know, my son spent the first six weeks of his life in NICU.<br />
Due to his surgeries I did not get too hold him until he was over 2 weeks old. That week I felt more peace than I had in a long time. When my baby girl was born, I never took for granted holding her every moment and from the moment she was put in my arms I was probably more thankful than most.Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16586327939597979335noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129379469835783592.post-72200615378518915052011-05-24T11:17:00.000-07:002011-05-24T11:17:07.360-07:00Spring Baseball has come and gone...then comes Fall!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Baseball for us in Las Vegas has come in gone for the Spring Season.

Happy New Year, Bringing in 2011<div style="text-align: right;">Watching all the news this morning has made me think?? About Resolutions, I have never been a big "make your resolutions for New Years" kind of person. Why, well I think we should have goals all year long, and it just doesn't appeal to me I guess. But I do love New Years Eve, it makes me think back on this year and all the good things have happened. I makes me think of how I have grown as a person and how I hope to grow as a mother, and a wife in the new year. I am excited to bring in this new year, I have two children and they are getting older and more independent. I am excited to see how they grow as little people this year! I love my hubby and love ringing in the new year just us. </div>Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16586327939597979335noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129379469835783592.post-7398713030962675952010-12-25T17:47:00.000-08:002010-12-25T17:48:53.542-08:00Wonderful Wonderland of Christmas<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Merry Christmas!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiybR7UGGi-Ft00x7O6-P6aByKXHz49oLsEouZV5aQ4fa2bhUEHUJpAf0qyxWdV0zgM5dOu2YAhY-U1yTTP7Cv2CEGgdTk49m0ZPZemHx-AmOX-YEA-v8uH3O0k6D3redBX9Rb24CIObsjd/s1600/Christmas+Day+2010+008.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiybR7UGGi-Ft00x7O6-P6aByKXHz49oLsEouZV5aQ4fa2bhUEHUJpAf0qyxWdV0zgM5dOu2YAhY-U1yTTP7Cv2CEGgdTk49m0ZPZemHx-AmOX-YEA-v8uH3O0k6D3redBX9Rb24CIObsjd/s320/Christmas+Day+2010+008.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">This year was amazing!

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I am thankful for the life lessons I have learned in my life, from the choices I have made. Some not good choices, but the lessons I learned from them have forever changed me and the way I "operate" my life. I am grateful for the lesson of the people you surround yourself with and the effects it has in consequences. I wish I would have learned that earlier in my life, but I would not be the person I am today. I am not done learning by any means, but the lessons in life so far, have brought me to a very good place in my life. </span></b><br />

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I am making this my gratitude for the rest of the week, because I wouldn't be where I am today with out those lessons. For that I am thankful, it resulted in marring my "soul mate", my beautiful daughter, my son having an amazing father figure and so many many others. </span></b>Jewelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16586327939597979335noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4129379469835783592.post-85722869611719040262010-11-23T11:25:00.000-08:002010-11-23T11:27:13.524-08:00Gratitude Day 22/23<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">My Family</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I have already posted a gratitude this month on my mother, but today I feel like I need to do it again. My mother is just that... my mother!! In every sense that matters!! Some people don't know this but I am adopted. I have never been shy about being adopted and have always been grateful for it. No family is perfect but I have been blessed to be in my family. My mother has always been a stability in my life, and I could never show enough gratitude to ever repay her. I have had some very very low points in my life, to where I did not know what was up or down or if I could even deal with what that day had in store for me. My mom never stopped being there. She always said what I needed to hear. Needed to hear, not what I wanted to hear. Its the one of the things that made it possible for me to start living my life again. My mom gets me, for the most part, lol. She gets my humor, and I get hers. She is an amazing grandmother. We may live 5 hours away, but my kids absolutely adore their Gigi. I am very thankful and have so much gratitude for my mother, and the time we spend together. Especially during Thanksgiving and the bonding in the kitchen!! </span><br />
