Happy 3rd Birthday Matthan!

I can not believe you are three today, THREE! You are a big boy now and you make sure that we all know it.  I have loved seeing how you’ve grown and changed throughout this past year.  Your personality continues to develop, and if it’s even possible, I love you more and more each day.  [...]

Gracias!

Matthan’s birthday is coming up and we’ve been busy preparing for his party.  The one thing he’s been most excited about and anxiously waiting for is the arrival of his piñata, all the way from Mexico.  This is a thank you to my wonderful friend Karla and my dad, Abuelito, for making this happen!

All we’ve [...]

I walked into the kitchen last week to see an open fridge and an open silverware drawer …

Matthan called me into the bedroom yelling, “Ta Da!” as soon as I walked in.

I can barely contain my excitement over our youth gathering last night … 33 students! THIRTY THREE STUDENTS!!! We had 9 students 3 weeks ago – unbelievable!
I’ve gotta get some cleaning done – the happiness may subside just a little during this time.
Great friends come to visit today, YAY! (may postpone the [...]

Make new friends but keep the old

I made a new friend this week, right along side my old friend Robin (and by old, I don’t mean old, old  just that I’ve known her for a while) – what a great friend combination – old and new!  “My Robin” and I headed down to the ATL to meet “Blog Robin.”  I met [...]

Abundantly blessed

On Monday, I got to spend the day with my sweet friend Angie – we’ve been friends since college, were part of each others’ weddings and lived in Dallas at the same time – 12 years of wonderful memories. One day with her is never ever enough, but I’ll take what I can get!  We [...]
