too cute...

A friend of mines daughter turned five today; this was our conversation, after she opened her Hannah Montanna barbie set!

Zhohn: Layla, how does it feel to be five?
Layla: PERFECT! (with a little eye rolling action!)

I'll have to post a picture of my Layla bug, she is a true GIRL! Dance three times a week, nails painted, everything!

She told her brother this evening to leave her alone because she had been at dance all day and was tired!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAYLA GIRL! I remember the day you were born.

I'm gonna be an Aunt...

to a BABY GIRL!

We are all very excited and can't wait to wait little Olivia Angelle!!!!

And of course we are excited that Patrick(caseyjo18.blogspot) will be here around the same time.

Between these two babies, I'm going to need a second job!!!!

Love to all...

Hello!!!

I'm sorry that I haven't posted in so long! Gustav has come and gone (and Ike)! Thankfully, myself, friends and family were fine through it all. It is just so sad (still) to drive around town and to work and see so many houses crushed by trees and so many blue tarps and trees and debris on cars...I'm so thankful.

THANK YOU ENTERGY!!! I have never been so thankful to have electricity!!! It is HOT and HUMID in Louisiana. Not to mention there were about 15 or so of us all staying together because we had a generator at one house to run fans at night.

Let's see...lots going on right now. Birthday parties, anniversary parties, Casey (caseyjo18.blogspot.com) will have her baby shower on Oct. 26, my sister will have her shower in November. I had the pleasure of going with Casey to her 4D ultrasound on Friday and "meeting" little Patrick myself. It's so exciting. My sister finds out what she is having tomorrow. My car has been giving me many, many problems. I'm still debating whether or not to trade it in. Work has been BUSY. It has become my life since the hurricane.
With everything that is going on and the holidays coming up, I have decided not to go to the Marathon this year. So many things have come up (move, new job, etc.) this past year. BUT BUT BUT that does not mean that I do not want everyone to donate! PLEASE DONATE, these children need it!

And by the way, myself and two of my friends have been walking two miles a day and eating healthy. We have all been doing well. So that means by 2009 Marathon I should be able to run ATLEAST the Half Marathon!!!

Hope all is well with everyone else, please let me know how you are!
BELIEVING!

Gustav...

Well...since I'm only about 50 miles from New Orleans I figured I'd let everyone know whats up... Even though I live in Ascension Parish and we are looking at some BAD weather I'm staying here, just going to a friends house. My area of town is under mandatory evacuation so my car is packed with clothes and important documents and such.

Stay safe and PRAY for all those that will be in the path of Gustav!

Love to all,
Zhohn

Hi there!

I've been wanting to blog but I really have nothing to blog about!!!

I LOVE my job; a lot less stress than the job I had before, even with more responsibility. I like being back in Gonzales, I can visit my friends whenever I want to. :)

PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO DONATE TO TEAM JAKE!!! I am so far behind on my emails and I'm gonna try to get an email out soon.

I've just been working, shopping, decorating and scrapbooking. I have missed scrapbooking.

Please sign in and let me know how you are.

Something funny before I go...
Conversation between my aunt and five year old cousin:

Mom: "Since Mom isn't working anymore you can't have anything extra at the store, we have to save our money now"

Son: "You can call Geico, they save you money"

I had to laugh!!!! Oh and by the way, he heard that on a "mercial"!

Hi my faithful readers...

Oh my goodness, I just lost an entire entry!

Long story short now...I'm doing great, enjoying my new job. I don't have internet at my house yet so I'm limited as to when i can blog.

Please sign in and I'll be sure to drop by your blog!

Hope everyone is enjoying the summer. It is HOT here! You agree Jen?

I'm still here!

I've been BUSY BUSY BUSY but I'm still around! :)

I've started my new job and I'll just say...i'm adjusting. :-) At first I wasn't so sure but it's getting better. I will have to get used to getting to work at 5:30 in the morning! I don't function very well that early in the morning. I'm more of an 8-9 o'clock person!

I will be officially moved in by this weekend. Everything is falling in to place and i'm thankful for that.

Hope all is well with everyone reading.
Don't forget to save for the St. Jude Marathon! (hopefully I'll blog more on that later this week).

BELIEVING-
