CHEERLEADER!!!! That's right, Camille is cheering! This past Saturday was her first game and she was so excited. She LOVES it and was so in her element! Here are pictures of my big girl doing her thing! I am also excited to announce that Simone will be joining her big sister as a cheerleader too, they let her join the team and she is thrilled!

Another goal met!!!!!!

I am so excited to say I met another goal this morning!!!! As you all know I'm running and training for the 1/2 in December and I've been working on building up my miles. Well this morning I am happy to announce that I ran 6 MILES non stop today! I felt so good too! The weather was fantastic and my body felt awesome! I am so excited about continuing on and building up to 10miles! Below is a picture of me from today!

Our trip to San Antonio(March 2010)

I was looking through some pictures and forgot to post these! Last month(March), we went to our nephew's 1st birthday party in San Antonio, Tx. We had a blast and also got to go to the Riverwalk....which the girls had never been! We tried to go to the zoo(because I heard it was AWESOME since they re-did it) BUT it was Spring break weekend and it was too crowded! Enjoy the pics, we sure had a good time:)

My sweet girls!!

Waiting for the water boat taxi!

It was so pretty out that day....Like 80!

Hi Simone:)

 

Doing what she does best:)...LOVE her!

Hey Camille!!

Resurrection Weekend! Thank God for a risen King!

We had a wonderful weekend celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ! On Friday, the girls went to my parent's house to color eggs! When we got there my sweet dad had everything laid out and set up for the girls to dye and decorate their own eggs. We had fun with that, then we had lunch with Grandmama, Aunt Tami & Auntie.....just girls! Saturday, the girls went back to my parent's to hunt for their eggs! We went to church Saturday night and had a blessed time. Sunday, it was nice to just take our time waking up and I even went to the gym and had a fantastic workout by myself:) Sunday afternoon, we went to our usual hangout(at my parents') with some of our other family, ate some good bbq and sides, with some yummy deserts.....Sock it to me cake, banana pudding and cookies!!! We had a blessed time and I thank God for family.....my family:D

Baskets & loot from mom & dad!

And they're off!

I LOVE it......my camera strap that is!!!!

Last week, I finally got my long awaited camera strap in the mail! I was so excited about it, because I am so tired of my neck getting tore up from the strap that comes with my Canon. This strap is so pretty and SO COMFY, it feels like there is nothing on my neck! Shey is AWESOME and she has SO many to choose from! Check her out yall. And bless her heart, she is BUSY and that is a blessing, so if you email her, give her time and she'll get back with you. It was a please doing business with you Shea! I pray the Lord continues to bless you, your family and your beautiful business! http://www.sheyb.com/

Oh, and the red is SOFT mink, real smooth on my skin:)

Easter party at school!

Simone had her Easter party at school today and she was SO EXCITED!!! We made the cutest baskets for each of her classmates and put lots of goodies inside! They had an egg hunt and the weather was so nice because it wasn't blazing hot. She was most happy to wear her dress that we have had for about 3wks, we are LOVING the green/brown combo right now:) Enjoy!!

Run, run, RUN!

As most of you know, at the beginning of this new year....January 6th to be exact, I started this new journey of running.  I have been training for 3 months now for the 1/2 marathon in December and things are going REALLY good!  I am proud to say that I am up to running 5miles at a time and each time I run, it gets easier and easier!  I never thought in my life that I would love running!  I have been blessed to have the best running partner ever, my own cousin Cheryl!  She encouraged me to try it as she completed her first 1/2 this past Dec.09.  She told me all about it right after the New Year and I told her I would do it with her this Dec. 2010.  I'm very excited & nervous, but I know this will be a huge accomplishment for me. I'm not doing it for anyone or trying to prove anything, just a personal goal that I have set for myself for 2010!

Stephen has been so wonderful and supportive of me!  Every mile that I ran, he was my cheerleader, telling me how proud of me he was!  We have been on this journey of getting healthier together now for over a year and its been wonderful to have each other to lean on!  God is so good and I am so thankful to HIM for each day that we have to live that day pleasing Him:)

My first 5K will be April 24th and I can't wait to get one race under my belt!  I know once I do the first, its on from there!  Be on the lookout for updates and pictures!!!  Run girl run:)
