The Best Combination Ever!!!

Elizabeth could not be a happier girl. She loves the Chick-Fil-A cow and Santa. So when the two were combined it was a dream come true. She is also obsessed with Snowmen :)

It is Up to Me to decide!

So I have decided that only I can make my life happier. I kept wishing for bigger and better things to come along but then they wouldn't and I would get depressed and have a pity party. I would say things like why me and if only and my life stinks. What I found was the worse I felt, the worse I got depressed. It was a downword spiral. I didn't even want to be me anymore.

SO I have been trying this new thing for the past week and a half. It is called focus on the positive and find joy in life. It is a funny thing. When I made it up in my mind to do this, I found not only that I was happier but my family seemed happier too.
My problems and challenges haven't gotten any better, but my attitude has. I feel like my old self is starting to emerge. I must say I have missed it.
Every night before Cory and I go to bed we each list 5 things we are thankful for. Some nights I am tired and don't want to do it but it helps me to realize how much I am thankful for the things I have. My favorite so far is, I am thankful for the washing machine. Could you imagine not having one.

I'm Sexy and I Know It

SO not really, but one can try right????? I had to pose with a poetry book as part of a project for my literature class. I felt I needed to post a picture of me as a "mature" student in college. Enjoy

My Girls!

Even though my girls drive me nuts, they are pretty cute. I am lucky that I have them in my life.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!

I have a big announcement.....I am not pregnant.....Ahahahaa....Everyone I know seems like they are pregnant or just had a baby. YOU know what though....I am happy for everyone who is pregnant but I am happier that I don't have to wake up at midnight,2,4,6 in the morning. Two kids are enough for me right now.

Miss Sarah Is 16 Months Old

I want it NOW!

I have officially run out of patience. It seems like I want things when I want and when that doesn't happen I get really angry. Patience is a virtue that I wish I had. I need to step back and enjoy the ride.
We have been waiting the last week or so to see if a potential job opportunity will happen or not for Cory..I know I should be patient but it seems like it is taking forever. As my mom reminded me, a week is really not that long to wait when it comes to the business world.
But when it is my families life it is. Sigh.....
I seriously need to focus on keeping my house clean/school work and being a mom. An amazing job will happen when it is supposed to happen.

I can't get this song out of my head.
