Winter lazy blues

So I have decided the lazy winter blues have kicked in from being off schedule with snow days, being stuck in the house and just not feeling like I am accomplishing what I need to.  I'm slacking on my working out and I feel like I am just plain out lazy right now.  I want to get back into the swing of working to better myself everyday.  Maybe the time changing tonight will help...one can only hope.

I'm ready for the warmer weather to get outside with the kids.  I look forward to watching them play outside, going to walks and even some runs.   I'm excited about playing at the park and just seeing all of God's beauty in all the new flowers and animals that will start arriving with the warmer temps.  More time in the day, a personal assistant to keep me on track, a set schedule for each day, or just plain self discipline...not sure what I need but I need to get back on track.

I have not had pork or red meat since Tuesday and so far it isn't too bad.  My wonderful and loving hubby picked up tilapia last night and some turkey bacon so I won't feel left out when I fix bacon and eggs (or bacon and pancakes) in the morning.  He also brought home "Catching Fire" and we watched it last night....Love it.  Now I need to read the last book because I never finished it.  I want to know what happens before the next movie comes out in probably another two years.

I wish I could make myself sit down and write out a daily schedule for myself and actually stick to it.  i have lots of ideas and things I want to accomplish but I usually fall off my motivation bandwagon quickly.  I'm hoping to get better by the end of the year.  This is one reason I made 2014 goals and not new years resolutions because I would have already failed and I'm trying to be successful in my goals by the end of the year.

For now I am going to have to run...the kiddos are playing nicely but I need to get my stuff together to get them ready for lunch and hopefully a nap.

Until next time...smile at someone and just say hi...it may change a very bad day into a not so bad day!

Birckhead Wedding

I have the privilege of working with Kara each day at my school.  Not only is she an awesome secretary but she has become a great friend as well.  This summer her boyfriend came to school, brought lunch and proposed!  Super sweet!!!!  She asked me if I would do the pictures for her wedding and of course I jumped at the opportunity!  This past Saturday, Joe and Kara tied the knot and it was a gorgeous day, gorgeous ceremony and such an awesome couple!  Here are a few of my favorites so far from the wedding. Thanks so much Kara for letting me capture your special day! 

Let's Recap.....

My Goals (Resolutions) for the year 2014 1.  Finish a bible study {still looking for one} 2.  Finish a book (maybe a series too)  {I have started a book and I am actually looking forward to finishing it so let's hope I do it!} 3.  Blog weekly  {I am still blogging ....maybe weekly was a little much for me to really commit to but I am working on it} 4.  Stay organized (home, work, self, etc) {This is so hard for me!!!!!!!!} 5.  Coupon {I am slacking} 6.

Looking Through the Rearview

As I start this post, there are many emotions that are running through me.  Yesterday, December 30, 2013, I sat with family surrounded by a community, church family and friends as we laid to rest my Papa, Neville Shelton.  In my 30 years, I have never met a more godly, caring, nonjudgmental, respectable, loving, giving man than my Papa.  I was blessed to be his granddaughter and as much as I miss him and his support here on Earth, I know heaven gained a true saint, and he is taking in his heavenly reward with my brother, James, by his side.  I love you Papa and I will miss you, but I will make sure Noah knows how special you were. Okay now that I have tears rolling down my face let me move on...looking back on 2013(the rearview mirror) it has been a rollercoaster of a ride....in January we made frequent trips to the doctor for ear infections that Noah kept, Noah and Kaylynn had the flu, in February my grandfather celebrated his 91st birthday, in March my son had hi...
