GLEE (anti-christian?)

So there's apparently lots of controversy about tonight's Glee episode... As of this moment it's still going on, so this controversy kind of upsets me. Many people are saying that it's sac-religious and anti-christian. I can see where people are coming from, but I also have to look at it with some realism... this is what goes on every day! This is what our children face every day at school... we face every day at work... this is the way our country is. Not everyone believe the same and haves the same religion, or any at all... We as Christians need to do just as Mercedes did and look down at them but show them that maybe there is something better than nothing. I'm interested to see how this ends, but so far it seems pretty straight forward and on point with our society today... More in a bit!

OK, so now that it's over I'm gonna say that I didn't see anything sac-religious or anti-christian. In fact, it showed nothing more than what we, as Christians, go through every day. Mercedes showed great strength by doing what she did and we should strive to do the same. While I'm not sure I agree with how they brought the points across, I do agree with the outcome and the moral... Good job Glee.

A new Leaf

So I've figured out lots of things over the last year... A lot has changed, some things have come, some have gone, some good, some bad, and a lot of things will continue to change... and I'm ok with this... God is good and he knows what's best!

With all that said, there is one thing I know for certain: I'm not happy with the way I look... it affects the way I think, the way I act and especially the way I feel. So, I'm going to do something about it... I'm not sure exactly how just yet but I know I'm going to work out more. I'm already eating better then I used to so I'm not sure how to make that much better...

My biggest issue is motivation and time. Between work, photography, editing, home, school that's starting back on Monday... I just seem to never have any time. I'm vowing to all of you (or perhaps just to me... hehe...) that I'm going to work out more, and by that I mean at least 3 times a week. My hope is that 1. by putting this on paper (Internet?) I can hold myself more accountable and 2. perhaps the one person that actually reads this will hold me accountable? I really wish I had a close friend that lived near me that would help me feel better about myself but right now, I don't. I have a few people that I hope will become great friends but all my established friends are away from me... so to the Internet I turn.

Now, I'm going to eat my domino's pizza to celebrate my new leaf and get ready to kick some booty tomorrow!! Happy Thursday everyone :-)

A day in the life (9-27-10)

Conversation a few days ago:

Me: Baby will you wake me up at 5 tomorrow?
Baby: Wake you up before I go go... got it...

Lol... he's so cute :-*

Fall is in the air!

There's so many things that I love about fall... the weather, the colors, the beauty that God has created!
Being able to layer clothing, scarves, and oh my goodness BOOTS! Being able to snuggle under the blankets with my baby because it's getting cooler, not to mention the cheaper electric bills because we don't have to run the AC as much!

AHHHH Fall...

It's been a busy few months...

yes, yes... I know... It's been a while. But ya'll love me so you'll cut me a little slack, right??? :-)
OK, so I'm taking a break from editing the thousands of photos we have to finish up in order to post a few... posts? hehe... guess that's all I could come up with.
Chris and I have been crazy busy doing photo shoots... which is good but oh so exhausting too! Here's a quick run down... Aug 14: shoot, Aug 20-22: Indy, Aug 21: shoot, Aug 28: 2 shoots, Sept 4: wedding, Sept 11: wedding, Sept 12: wedding... busy, right? We also had family up for visits twice within that, doggie sat for a weekend and had friends from VA beach up for Labor day weekend... And that's only part of it!!
Don't get me wrong, I'm LOVING every minute of my life... but man has it been exhausting lately... ugh. More soon, Promise!! *B*

The zoo that is our home

**edit:  this should have went up months ago, right after we got Tink but here it is anyway**

 

Blogosphere meet our pets…

Lady: King Charles Cavalier.  Born September 2008.  ~ 13 pounds. Named after Lady from Lady and the Tramp.  She's positively the sweetest little girl I've ever seen or owned for that matter.  She has such a personality and if I didn't know better, I'd think she was a human! 

 

Kitty: Domestic Short Hair.  Born July 2008.  ~10 pounds.  Named after Sully from Monster's Inc. Kitty is independent but sweet and cuddly when she wants to be.  She also has seizures; we're pretty sure they're panic attacks and she doesn't get them that often anymore but it's so scary when she does.  Sidenote:  One of my best friends is named Cat (Catherine who has now decided to go by Cate but whatever... haha) Anyway, Logan came out to visit when we lived in SD and we were able to get him to call her Kitty so he'd walk around going 'KITTY!' just like Monster's Inc... haha.  He was a long younger then...

 

Oliver: Domestic Short Hair.  Born March 2009.  ~8 pounds.  Oliver is the only boy in our mix… and he knows it!  He's sweet and playful.  His favorite place to sleep is cuddled up to me in bed.  If you get him purring you can hear and across the room… perhaps he'll even start drooling!

 

Tinkerbell (Tink): Chihuahua.  Born January 2010.  ~1.4 pounds.  Named after who else?  The lovable little Disney Fairy (NOT Paris Hilton's dog).  She is the most recent addition to our family and we're still feeling her out… but she's so sweet and so cute!  She fits in with us so perfectly! *edit* She is DEFINITELY part of our family, she fits in oh so perfectly and has a personality all her own... she shakes when she's scared, happy, excited, sleepy, cold, just about all the time!  lol. 

 

This ladies and gentlemen is our zoo.  I'd adopt all the animals in the world if I could, but alas, I can't.  I'm so glad that my hubby is so understanding and loves animals as much as me!  J

M.I.A

Yes, I know, it's been a while.  Ok so that's a BIT of an understatement but I do have a few posts written and lined up... it's just been, well hectic. :-)  Lots has gone on in the last 2 months and especially within the last week!  WOW.  I'm gonna go ahead and post a few of my posts via my email, but I think I'll have to reedit them when I get home and can actually access blogger... or perhaps I'll be too lazy and just won't care...  haha...

 

Hugs and Kisses All!
