HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!!!

May you all feel much thinner than I do at the moment!!! I feel like a stuffed beached whale:)

Praise God on this day for your rights!!! You can still pray to our Father, carry a gun to protect/support your family, and live and breath how you see fit!!!

It may not be for long, but enjoy it while it lasts!!!!!!

Psalms 32:7

Thou art my hiding place:

Thou shalt preserve me from trouble:

Thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.

Selah

I am soooo grateful that I have a God who is there for em no matter what... He's always there to hold me up when I fall and pick me up even when I try to run away from Him.

He has given me a thorn in my side, and yet it is my grooms way of always keeping me reliant on Him...To be loved so much...

If only I can remember His love for me on an everyday basis...

Not get downtrodden and forget it like I am always prone to do...

Psalms 32:11

Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye righteous:

and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart!!!

Hey Ya'll....

My shoulders hurt!!!!!!!! I have discovered that I weedwacked our yard for 3 1/2 hours this afternoon!!!

I can see my muscles building, but boy, am I sore:)
This is like the fourth day I have weedwacked lately...so cool:)

My dad gave me the go, so I am gonna clue you all into the prayer request I asked you to pray for...:)

I asked for dad's blessing to go into the field of becoming a midwifes assistant. This means I will be training hands on with Labor of Love here in Florida as basically a C.N.A but I will be focused on Midwives. In discusing the job with the Midwife/office manager I discovered I will learn how to take blood ( yah ) and blood pressure and all that good stuff!!!

I also will get to take care of laundry, which I happen to love:) I am serious!!! I will train in gophorism:) ( go for this and go for that...):)

laundry, nursing assistant, janitor, secretary, midwife helper with whatever:) I can't wait....

It will be a few weeks since the job isn't open right now....Which is fine cause I didn't want to start yet anyway:)

Keep praying everything will work out good and timing will be nice to me:) Luv ya'll:)

Hey All:)

I thought my life was gonna slow down...Right:)

I went catering with Sam today and it was a good thing till they actually started eating..I have never seen people think they could eat that many ribs and pieces of catfish in my life!!! They were literally piling them on their plates..like as in 5 inches to 7 inches high!

Steven Paul, my adorable little brother has started to walk!!!! WAHHHHHH!!! I don't remember telling him he could grow up! He's walking to me now and I just have no choice but to realize how fast life goes by!!!!

I am really praying about an opportunity to study/work...It is in a situation that my dad agrees to ( or did 6 months ago...I have to make sure he still does ) and an overall neat way of being able to study without going to a school and paying out a ton of money...

I'll let you know when I decide one or the other and then I'll tell you what it is:)                   So, the point of telling you is to hope you will pray for me to know where to go with it:)

I have finally started teaching the girls piano again!!! I have been procrastinating for wayyy to long! They did so good they made me feel terrible that I had waited so long!!!!

I've been aiming to work out again lately!!! YAH!!! I feel so much better when I do!!!

Keep me always in your prayers and let me know you love me by writing!!!!!!!!!

XOXOXOXO's and Many blessings:)

Hey Ya'll:)

Just got back from an absolutely ( sp????:)) amazing weekend in Ft. Lauderdale!!!!!

Laura Warren, myself and numerous brothers and sisters got to go down for  a grand ball on the night of the 17th! We were all dressed up and really enjoyed every moment!

It was a total blast!!!!!!!

Hope every things going well for you all!!! Drop me a line sometime!

I would love to hear from you:)

I am sooooo excited!!! Just got a new piano!!! My old one had chipped keys, so this non chipped keyboard is a complete blessing. It was totally God, cause the lady lowered the price from $795 to $500!! and God supplied it without me asking her to lower it ..... Thank you Lord for taking care of me:) Life has been pretty insane.....as usual.

Trying to get off the lazy streak and get some money coming in Piano lessons, upholstery(yuck!!!), sewing, cooking, aggrivating siblings, annoying parents and many, many more things keep me busy and I would have to add pampered chef to it????!!!!! Go figure!!!!

Church is going fairly well, just seeing where the Lord is continually leading.

Well, Good news!!! The Graves Family is expecting #9!!!
We just found out and are very, very excited!!!
Been keeping very busy with helping to feed linemen who were trying to get our lights back on after Frances and a million other things! God is truly good to all those that seek after His face and strive to do His will.

Keeping very busy with life!!!
 I am a consultant with Pampered Chef and love cooking.
I also am a big sissy to many siblings and love never having a dull moment.
 I found out I had diabetes a little over a year ago and God has given me the grace to be able to control type one diabetes completely through excercise!!! Praise God I am soooo excited!!!
My newest little sister will be one on June 2nd, 2004 and I love being kept busy with her and the rest of my family.

Newest News....
Boy, have I learned not to ask for patience!!! God sure has a horrible sense of humor.... Since asking for that awful word my life hasn't slown down!!!
Be praying always for me and I would love to hear from you!!!!

Hey Guys!!! I have decided life was meant to be insane!

Mom is expecting #9 and of course we are going through "nesting" and trying to get the whole house DEEP cleaned....Joy!!!!

Also, watching spy kids 2 .......weird but I wouldn't mind some of those cool gadgets...

I want to learn how to fly a plane, do a perm with out frying their hair and i want to learn russian..... There is a course in the russia training center that is like 6 weeks long and you go learn russian and about the russian history.. I would LOVE to go . Maybe God will have that somewhere in my future.   Hey I can dream can't I???:)
