Cold weather go away!!! =( / Bad Jerky...



So I'm in CLT this week, and I woke up as usual at 6:40am ONLY to find out ...I WAS FREEZING!!! What in the world! so I turned around and slept some more!! haha...
I did eventually get up though, and when I walked outside, I realized that if I was cold inside the house, it was def gonna be freezing outside.  Didn't think about that, so I had to warm up my car for a bit before I could take off...my poor baby missed it's garage. (gagahge as Esteban would say. hehe) It sounded sad...

I can't believe my poor baby almost has 60k miles =( I was just talking to my coworker the other day, and saying "Oh yeah since my car is brand new....oh wait...it was 2007 wasn't..WOW IT'S 2010!!" LOL. harsh reality hit...It has been faithful though, and it still looks great, although it has to put up with all my hate comments =) 



On another subject, I went to go buy some stuff for Matt today, and I bought him some Jerky =) Well I saw the Walmart brand right next to it, and I was like, you know I've never tried it.... so I bought a small bag for me, along with Matt's regular jerky....





ALL I CAN SAY IS ......HARD!!!!!!!!!! holy cow!!! Brooke had told me that it got harder quicker...but I didn't think it was gonna be as quickly as WHEN YOU OPEN THE BAG!!! LOL...so memo to me.....never buy Walmart brand jerky!! =)

WRONG WAY!!!


So last night my parents and I left our friends house around 12:15am...(This is the first time we've been to their house)  On our way home i was looking for I-95 North. ...I FOUND I-95N and took it!! only to find out that from exit 41, I was now on exit 33!!!! and not 49!!!!  =( of course i didn't notice, because we hadn't passed any other exits....I WAS FURIOUS!!! I couldn't believe that i did that!!...I COULD HAVE SWORN THAT I TOOK I-95 NORTH!!! 

So we had to turn around.... took us about 15 min to get to exit 41(where we started!!!) (going at 80mph of course..I wanted to get home)  and had to drive another 20 min to 49!!! Needless to say we made it home around 1am!!

Now that I think about it, it's pretty funny.LOL..but last night when i really wanted my bed..umm not so much....moral of the story...DON'T TRUST THE SIGNS!!! follow your iphone!!! hahaha....

Verse of the week..../ story too..hehe

verse...
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.     
– Psalm 139:14-16 
story...


In the early days of the automobile, a man's Model - T Ford stalled in the middle of the road.  No matter what he tried, he couldn't get it started.  A chauffeured limousine pulled up behind the stalled car and a wiry, energetic man stepped from the back seat to offer his assistance.  After tinkering with the engine for a few moments, the stranger said, "Now try it!"  Immediately, the engine leaped to life.  The well-dressed man then identified himself as Henry Ford.  "I designed and built these cars," he said, "So I know what to do when something goes wrong."  When our lives are broken, when the plan falls apart and everything seems to go wrong, we need to wait on God, knowing He created us, knows us best and loves us most!

I LOVE MY MATTHEW!!!! =)



Today was kind of a bummy / depressing day....until I saw i had a comment on fb...

IT WAS FROM MATT!! 

It was the most amazing thing i could ever read!!! TOTALLY MADE MY DAY!!  =) (even teared up, cuz i miss him so much)
 It's so hard to talk to him sometimes, because everything has to be such short answers/non personal, and he just becomes almost another person =( But his message just reminded me WHY I married him, and WHY I love him so much!!

I'm so lucky to married to the best man in the world!!! hehe...I love it that he encourages me when i need it,  and always knows how to pick me up =)
I know it has only been two months and that we have a lot more to go...but each day it just reminds me how much I CANNOT WAIT to see him again!!!!! Please pray that the time flies by!!

I LOVE YOU BABE!!

CAKES YEAH!!! part DOS!! hehe

My second decorating class was yesterday, and I LOVED EVERY MIN OF IT!!!

I'm so glad God has allowed me to take this class, cuz it has helped tremendously!! as a stress reliever that is..hehe..anywho..I made a strawberry cake yesterday, and i was a bit upset, because the bottom of my cake got stuck to the pan, so it made a huge mess..
So i brought it to class and my teacher said it was still ok, that was good, so i cut it in half and filled it with rasberry jam..YUM!!!
Well i thought about taking pics through out my process...and I COMPLETELY FORGOT!! LOL..so here is the final result...I'll take more with a process on my next class :-)

TADA!!! MY FIRST CAKE!!! hehe..

Next week we get to do cupcakes...I'm thinking chocolate with manjar inside!! yum...

Well as if my day wasn't going crazy...i was on my way back home AND I GOT PULLED OVER BY A COP!!! :-( I was supposedly speeding...(which i know i wasn't...i was probably going 5 over) so he talked to me and asked me about my pill holder, and what i had...i told him advil and showed him..he said "why are they full of white powder" I said "I sometimes use pamprin in there..he said "PAMPRIN?"  i said yeah..uummm for menstrual stuff??!! HAHAH..I FELT SO STUPID...then he saw my cake and asked me if I had made it :-) needless to say i walked away with a warning only, and it was VERY NICE!! heheh...He was a nice cop...i like nice cops..hehe...

Verse of the week....

"Where can I go from Your Spirit? Where can I flee from Your presence? If I go up to the heavens, You are there; if I make my bed in the depths, You are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast" (Psalm 139: 7-10, NIV)  AMEN!!!!!! :-)

Tuesday, June 8, 2010

Thought for the Day :)

It's actually from Sundays message but really cool.

Everyone focuses on Jesus multiplying the 5 loaves and 2 fish. Although that is just awesome!!! Have we thought about what the boy felt? That was his only lunch, and if you could have asked him, could you feed 5000+ with this he would have been like. " Are you kidding me!"
However, he had faith! 2 things: ONE although what he had wasn't much, he knew that Jesus would MAKE IT WORK! TWO he had faith that although he was giving his all, he was going to be blessed in the end!

AND SO HE WAS!!! Tons of baskets were left over!

How many times do we look at ourselves and think. "what I have is not merely enough" whether it be financially or talents or just in general. But if Jesus was able to turn BREAD and FISH into thousands. What more could He do with us!!! And most importantly we should already know that although we may have to give our "all" for now, we will be blessed! Trust me God knows what He's doing :) and boy do we feel stupid when we go back and say "Ha, if I would have done it my way…I'm glad I didn't :)"

Let's get to it!!

Tuesday, June 1, 2010

Verse of the week...

Sunday's message by Pastor Sean was AWESOME!!! So what i needed!!. His main topic was off of Romans, but he read this verse and it really hit me. It's when the disciples saw the blind man, and asked Jesus why he was blind, and if it was because his mother had sinned or because his father had sinned...This was Jesus' response:

John 9:3 - "Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life.


Ok so you may be thinking..yeah that's just a verse..heard it many times...lol..but take a closer look at the end.."this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life"!!! If he was nice and healthy now..how would the work of God be displayed???? Many times we complain so much about our "thorns in the flesh" but we tend to forget that God is in control. He has allowed us to have this  "thorn" so we can remember HIS WORK!! it's basically God saying..."I'm helping you to be humble, and allowing you to show MY WORK" :-) 


I know i struggle with the WHY'S in life..and I always think it's not fair...but if i take a closer look at my life...I think...would i be as close to God and dependent on His will as I am now?? If i could do everything on my own ...would i even take the time to ask??? Absolutely not..I really think my trials are what have kept me faithfully dependent on God....Also it has allowed me to say HE MADE IT WORK!! (HE SOLD MY HOUSE!! - he really did..my house was hopeless :-)) I know it's hard to say but we should all be saying THANK YOU GOD FOR GIVING ME TRIALS THAT HELPING ME STAY CLOSE TO YOU AND THAT SHOW YOUR AMAZING WORK IN OUR LIVES!!!!!! :-)

My attempt at experimentation!! LOL

Well it all started last week. I knew i had an event to go to yesterday. and I figured..ooo it would be nice if i could make some cheese empanadas!! So i asked my mom for some of the dough disks she uses, and she said she had a spare, and I could take it last Thu. when i left...WELL I FORGOT!!!!!
I looked everywhere in Fayetteville to see if they sold the darn disks..but no luck :-( I was really bummed out cuz i really wanted to make empanadas! Sooo i GOOGLED!! haha.. I found this recipe to make dough from scratch! I made an attempt on Tuesday and I made 2 and ...OMG THEY WERE SOOO GOOD!!
So yesterday I made the rest of the batch and I couldn't resist but to eat one..haha...but they were EVEN BETTER THAN ON TUESDAY!! haha...I was so proud. I'm good at following recipes, but sometimes, the food just doesn't want to cooperate! lol.  ...so here is the final result!
Needless to say everyone at my meet loved them too :-) YAY FOR ME AND EXPERIMENTING!!! haha
