Blog Swap

Hello Everyone,

I participated in a blog swap that Kati over at Country Girl, City Life hosted. My swap partner was Kelley over at The Lawrences. Well - I got my package! Look at all the great stuff that was in it.

I got so many neat things. See:

Razzles - yum yum
Ultra Menthol Lip Shine
Albuq Cookies (these are just so delicious that they
got a double Yummy from my grandson!)
Heart of the Desert Pistachios
Family sign (Love it!)
Lavender Bath Salts
A Wish Token
Magnet List Pad (ok you can NEVER have enough of these)
Pecos Peppermint Soap
and the book
Captivating by John & Staci Eldredge
(can't wait to get into this!)

Ok first off I don't eat nuts. Any kind of nuts, I have never liked them. So when I seen the Pistachios I thought good, something Larry will like. Then I noticed that they were Red Chili flavored. So anyone that knows me knows that I love all things spicy. So I thought well I probably won't like them but I'm gonna try one. So I did. I just want everyone to know that I am now a Pistachio eater. Seriously they were so good (notice I typed 'were'). Now my husband has tried to get me to eat pecans, walnuts, cashews and I never have liked any of them. So Kelley you have accomplished something that in 16 years my husband has failed at!

Now the Albuq Cookie's are so delicious. As I typed above my grandson took a bite of one and his exact words were "Mmmmm, yummy, yummy". A DOUBLE Yummy people!! And they are!

She even sent me a Mother's Day card, even though I found her card in my purse AFTER I sent her package. I am so glad that I got Kelley as a swap partner. She is a wonderful young lady and if you get the chance hop over and say hello! Well, until next time

Have a blessed day!

On The Go

Hello Everyone,

I am finally sitting at home on my couch. One of my favorite places to be. Today started rather early. Well to be honest yesterday ended way late like 4 a.m. late. Then I was up at 8:30. I even woke up refreshed and ready to go. Thank God because all week I have felt puny and not able to walk out to my car without feeling bad.

I started off my day by going to Hayden and getting my three nieces so that they could help me with Ray. Now my daughter didn't want me to keep Ray because I am not suppose to lift anything for two weeks. She was afraid I would hurt myself. But I refuse to give up my Saturdays with my baby. So I enlisted my nieces.

Well actually last night I was telling my mother I would need help and was thinking about asking one of them. Well within 15 minutes of speaking to my mother my niece Nikkie called and said she would help me. Yay! By this morning her twin wanted to come then my sister's daughter wanted to come too. I had more than enough help and it was great spending the day with all three of them. I haven't done that for a while.

After I picked up the girls we ran to get my grandson. He was excited and ready to go. So off we went first to Angel Food Ministries. Love this organization. After distributing the food we headed to WalMart. We have a baby shower tomorrow and all of us had to get presents. This is for my cousin's daughter. Well, she is not my cousin by blood but her father was my sister's Nino (Godfather) and we considered him an uncle and his kids our cousins. Her daughter is having a boy and I got her a baby bouncer. I remember how Ray loved his.

Once we left WalMart we decided to go eat. We had Mexican - yum, yum, yummy as my grandson would say. I grew up every day of my life eating Mexican food, if it wasn't for my husband I would be eating it every night. Then off we were shopping some more.

I have had everything for my blog swap and just needed a couple of little things so that I can ship it off on Monday. I don't usually wait til the last day of the deadline but well, all last week was a bust. I am excited and hope she likes what I have put together for her.

Oh here's a picture for your viewing pleasure.



Is he not a doll? He looks like he is sad but he is really trying to pucker to give my sister a kiss. I tell you this is why this little guy just has me wrapped around all of his little fingers and toes!!

Do you ever have gut feelings? Do you listen to your gut feelings? The reason I am asking is because my gut is really talking to me right now. You know what it is saying? FEED ME!! lol Well, I haven't ate since lunch. Gotta listen to my gut!

Have a blessed day!
