I'm too serious
Sometimes you are too serious..and you just need to be goofy..
These are Iphone pictures, but you get the point. Sometimes life is too serious.
Stop and smell the roses, and have a little fun!

Happy Late Valentines Day
Our local go-to gal at Captured by Tamara (Tamara Sears) took these, she is just fab!
I was severely down with the flu this week, but my husband helped with the kids along with some grandparents and it ended nicely.
The sun is shining and the Lord was so merciful that I recovered so quickly.
Happy late Valentines, ya'all!

I've been horrible at blogging. I love it but I've just had zero time for it lately.
I was so fortunate to be paired up with I'm sure, one of the loveliest ladies on the entire Earth. She was so sweet from the first email I received. We quickily exchanged TONS of emails. I felt like I could share anything with her.
Her name is Kimberly and you can catch her over here. Team Howard
She seriously thought of everything. She actually cared what I was passionate about. She is such a great woman and sister in Christ. Sometimes you can just tell when someone is going to be successful in everything they do, I can tell that about her. I have found a lady friend for life with her!
Check out what she got me! So thoughtful. Each gift was individually wrapped and attached with a sweet little note. She even was considerate enough to get something I can share with the husband and little mini skateboards for my boys.
My experience was just amazing with this lady!
Check her out, she's worth the read!!
Blessings!

bye Bye Target
HAPPY 2013!
I spent the first half of this month just reevaluating certain things in my life.
Of course most people visit their fitness/health goals this time of year, which is such a great idea..if you can stick to it.
I've done moderately well, eating mostly raw produce for the majority of my meals. I absolutely love the way I feel when I eat raw and I juice a few times a week.
Another idea my family had, staying out of Walmart/Target for the next 6 months!!
Crazy huh? People look at me like I'm nuts.
Since we are building a house and cutting spending now in order to buy what we want to put in the house (new furniture) we are saving like crazy people!
I buy tons and tons of extras in these two places, so I've vowed to not step foot in them!
Anyone else make some crazy goals this year? I would love to hear them :)
Blessings,
Kayla

December Cara Box
This month I was so excited to join something called the Cara box. *Refer to a previous post*
I was fortunate enough to get to know two lovely ladies, one whom I sent a box to and the other sent me one!
I was so excited to get my box I opened it in the car at the Post Office!
Taber sent me a box this time, my first box by the way!
It was so exciting. Unfortunately I couldn't get a picture of the glass angel she sent with my box because I broke her wing off and put it up so my boys wouldn't mess with it until I could try to fix her :( boo I know!
So Sorry for the cruddy Iphone picture.
She got me cute window clings, which my children wanted to take over,
a glittery Christmas ornament (it matches my tree decor perfectly!),
the most amazing lip gloss, and red glittery nail polish. Plus the crystal angel with the currently broken wing. I was so upset about that because she even wrapped it nicely so it wouldn't break during shipping and I broke it when I opened it! ugh.
Thanks again Taber for putting a little sparkle in my holiday!
Kaitlyn started all this Cara Box jazz, what a great idea right?
You can find her here. Wifessionals
Blessings on this New Years Eve.

Wonderous Wednesday
I wanted to share with you all a poem I found on Dr. Phil's Facebook page.
Twas' 11 days before Christmas, around 9:38
when 20 beautiful children stormed through heaven's gate.
their smiles were contagious, their laughter filled the air.
they could hardly believe all the beauty they saw there.
they were filled with such joy, they didn't know what to say.
they remembered nothing of what had happened earlier that day.
"where are we?" asked a little girl, as quiet as a mous...e.
"this is heaven." declared a small boy. "we're spending Christmas at God's house."
when what to their wondering eyes did appear,
but Jesus, their savior, the children gathered near.
He looked at them and smiled, and they smiled just the same.
then He opened His arms and He called them by name.
and in that moment was joy, that only heaven can bring
those children all flew into the arms of their King
and as they lingered in the warmth of His embrace,
one small girl turned and looked at Jesus' face.
and as if He could read all the questions she had
He gently whispered to her, "I'll take care of mom and dad."
then He looked down on earth, the world far below
He saw all of the hurt, the sorrow, and woe
then He closed His eyes and He outstretched His hand,
"Let My power and presence re-enter this land!"
"may this country be delivered from the hands of fools"
"I'm taking back my nation. I'm taking back my schools!"
then He and the children stood up without a sound.
"come now my children, let me show you around."
excitement filled the space, some skipped and some ran.
all displaying enthusiasm that only a small child can.
and i heard Him proclaim as He walked out of sight,
"in the midst of this darkness, I AM STILL THE LIGHT."

I don't get many comments on my blog, but I thought I'd politely ask for anyone to refrain from negative comments if they should have any about this post.
You're free to email me thoughts if you have any.
No words could express the state my heart feels for these families and that community.
This tragedy caused parents to hold children tighter and cherish them deeply.
My hope is that some day their burdens lighten and their hearts find peace.
If you would please join me in praying for everyone affected
Kayla
