What I am Loving Wednesday!

#1-KLOVE
I am so in love with KLOVE Christian radio station right now. I started listening to it last fall, but lately, it is all I listen to and always seems to be what I need to hear. So blessed to have access to a wonderful Christian radio station. I don't even think about flippin through the stations anymore.

#2- My Kinder Garden sign
My new sign made by the hubby and painted by my friend Amy. I think it turned out wonderful and as soon as it warms up, I can't wait to take a picture of my class in front of the garden they planted.

#3. My baby boy's loose tooth.
Houston was complaining Sunday on the way to church about his teeth hurting. I told him I would give him Tylenol when we got back home. I forgot and he started complaining again. When I looked in his mouth and noticed his tooth was blue. I touched it and it is definitely loose. The funny thing is, I was scared he would swallow it and I would have to "DIG" it out. ON the way home from school, a friend called me to tell me her daughter, who also had a loose tooth, was eating an apple and accidentally swallowed hers this afternoon. Whoops, now she thinks I jinxed her. He is growing up so fast. I mean seriously, he will be graduating high school in a minute :(


#4. My new COACH purse
For no reason at all, my great aunt brought me this beautiful purse. Oh my gosh, I literally started crying, I was so excited! I mentioned last week how much I liked hers and would never go out and buy myself a real one. My fake ones are both worn out, I love them so much. I had no idea, she was going to get me one.



#5. The gorgeous weather last weekend
Seriously, the weather was in the high 60's and today it was like 20 with a wind chill of negative something. UGH
We had so much fun enjoying the weather and playing in it.
Houston after a loooong ride with mommy and daddy on our four wheelers too. I will have to remember to remind him that 3 four wheelers side by side going fast are not always a good choice. The child made me so nervous riding up behind me fast. Now wonder I have so many gray hairs. lol

#6. Buck
Houston on his young pony Buck (he is not really broke enough for me to let Hou Boo go on his own, but did a wonderful job with Hou) but we had a hard time catching Lightning after some little boy chased him on the four wheeler.


#7. New friends
Wow, I mean, seriously. We had so much fun Sunday grilling out and the chef sent us home with about 4 porkchops, 2 steaks, 2 burgers and 4 hot dogs. Me and Hou have been eating leftovers everyday for lunch and dinner. The man can cook I tell ya.

#8. GNO
Tomorrow night is GNO with some fab ladies at Olive Garden. So looking forward to it :)
#9. My early Valentine's day present
My Valentine's present from the hubby. It is a BIGGIE and is worth a blog post itself. I think I may save it until closer to Valentine's Day. He got it this weekend and AHHHHHHH is all I have to say............
#10. Memories
I spent some time with a dear friend this week. Please cherish the moments you have with the ones you love. You never know when it is your time to go. After going to a special memorial service for a friend last night, I was reminded how happy and wonderful Heaven is going to be. It is so sad to lose a loved one, and so hard at first, but wow, what an amazing time they are having up there right now, rejoicing and spending time with the Lord as we are stuck on this evil and sinful earth. It makes me jealous of passed loved ones. The song "I Can Only Imagine"by Mercy Me was played and I sat there with tears in my eyes thinking about the beauty and powerful things that are going on in Heaven. I know the picture I paint is full of beauty, but I am sure God's picture is much more beautiful than mine will ever be.
Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
#11. Biggest Loser
Our school's county got together to form a Biggest Loser Competition. Our first weigh in was last week and I LOST 6.5 pounds. Yahoo! I was so nervous b/c the nurse was late and I had just ate lunch. I was so worried after drinking a Bubba Keg FULL of water and eating lunch, that I would not do well. After loosing 59 pounds last year, I kinda gained about 5 around Christmas break. So happy to learn my hard work is paying off. All the participants form my school did well with a loss of 2 to 6.5 pounds. Way to go CES!
I am never able to link up for what I Love Wednesday, due to lack of computer skills. But I like to blog to kinda keep up with dates and keep track of different things going on in my life.
Hope you have a blessed week!
I will praise God's name in song and glorify him in Thanksgiving. Psalm 69:30
