Sweet Dear Layout

Well, I am instituting alot of change in my life!
My weight is such a burden to me. So I need to make changes to get my health improved! I have already started watching my food intake. No soda, no eating after 8pm. No fried foods. I started doing Wii Fitt over the weekend with my parents! Not only is it alot of fun, but I am exercising and not realizing it until after each session!

I just finished this LO. I also just realized I mislabeled her age as 2 months, and she was one month here. So that will be changing. The writing was not as good as I would like anyways.

Thanksgiving 2008 photos


Here are some photos I took from Thanksgiving Day 2008. (With my new Canon EOS Rebel XS!)

My Niece, Megan and her four month old daughter Andrea.

My bro in law, Ed, getting ready to put some food in the big outdoor oven

My youngest sister, Melissa, holding a sleeping Andrea when I first arrived.

No one remembered to bring/get napkins so Ed used the leftover Power Ranger ones from my nephew, Connor's birthday party. Funny huh?

Isn't this a pretty table? Ed actually set it up like this and then called me to get a photo before everyone sat down. I have my family trained well!

Look! Andrea is trying to lift herself up to crawl!
My nephew, Jacob is texting a friend and my dad is sitting next to him watching the Cowboys game.

I think this is my favorite photo from Thanksgiving. Andrea is laying on her mom's shoulder.

My bro in law, Donnie with his son Jacob. Nice to see smiles!

Um....slight problem in the outdoor oven. Ed had turned on the fan inside, not realizing my mom had just put the sweet potatoes in there. The fan blew some of the marshmellow topping off and it smoked really bad on the bottom of the oven.

Camp Shadow Pines 2008

A few weeks ago, I went on a family church retreat with members of my church at Camp Shadow Pines, near Heber, AZ, in the White Mountains. Weather was so awesome and I had a really nice time!




Don't I look all relaxed!

This was part of the facilities at Camp Shadow Pines. Very "summer campish" but had a great time and it only cost $80 per person! The weather was awesome too!

Actual grass behind me and my friend Sis Stacy!

This is an adorable girl named Abigail, who is the daughter of one of my friends. She loves getting her pic taken, so I let another lil girl take this pic. She did well!

This is me and my BFF Sis Mellisa in front of the welcome sign.


Pastor's wife, Sis. Lydia, Sis Rebecca Jones at the piano (our guest speaker at the women's breakaway on Saturday am,) Sis Melba and Sis Anna, singing worship songs before we start in.

A big group photo!


This is Pastor Michael Jones and his wife Rebecca, who came from Indiana to preach and teach, standing alongside my pastor's wife, Sis Lydia and my pastor, Daniel Lizarraga.
Some of the kids having fun with dandelions!


Some of us gals in front of the ever popular welcome sign!

We had hayrides too!

Softball game was organized on Saturday afternoon, although I was taking a nap in my room because my legs were incredibly sore from volleyball the night before in the gym.

Friday Bonfire Service!

Pastor Jones bringing down the Word of God at the Bonfire service on Friday evening.

Horseshoes!! I played this for awhile. Loved it!

This is me and my friend, Sis Deanna. I call her Sister Smiley because she is ALWAYS smiling!!
