TODAY IS A "SPECIAL" HERO . . .K

Today I had to go and help with the foster parent training at my office. . .
I was so hungry when I got there. . . So what does any normal woman do when shes hungry. . . .
She digs in her purse and finds whats floating around in it that can be eaten!
Usually for me its a piece of gum that's found its way out of its box
(but come on lets get real how long can a piece of gum hold you over)!!!
BUT TODAY I HIT THE JOCK-POT
I found this SPECIAL K HERO* in my bag.
Yes, it was damaged and I had to lick the wrapper for the stray away crumbs but man was it worth it.
So thank you Special K Hero . . .
You helped me get through that 11am hunger
and you did it all for only 100 calories!!
AND IF YOU HAVEN'T TRIED THEM I SUGGEST YOU DO. . . AMAZING!

*Name was change to protect the other fruit bars that were not found at the bottom of my bag. . .
it is not really called a SPECIAL K HERO. . . its a Special K Crisp :o)

I never said my Hero's were serious!!!!

So today I had two, yes two hero's. . . Let me explain.

My First Hero. . .

My Second hero. . .

Today it snowed and it was cold. . .While I enjoyed the snow and enjoyed wearing my Hero's today . . . I live in the desert and its not suppose to snow. I'm very thankful for my Uggs and Coat. I would have been freezing without them!!!!

P.S. WHO SAID YOUR HERO HAS TO BE SERIOUS :o)

MY NUMBER ONE HERO

So my number one hero in life is of course MY MOM. For those of you that know me and my mom best will totally understand this for those of you that don't let me share with you why she's my HERO.
My mom has always put me first no matter what. She has not only shown me the right path but guided me in the way I needed to go(even though at sometimes it feels shes pulling me). My mom has consistently put me not only first but expected the best for and of me. She has helped me get through school, not just the dreaded high school years but also my homesick, Mormon party college years. She listen to me on the phone when that guy I was "madly in love with" broke my heart, or how it just wasn't fare that I got a C- on that paper I wrote last night. She faithfully wrote me on my mission and had to have been the "trunkist" mom towards the last few months (I couldn't even read my letters from her the last 4 weeks. . . it was really bad). She has played the best devils advocate through out my life and continues to help me see things from other peoples point of view. She lets me cry but not for to long, reminds me to pinch my pennies and pay my bills on time. She says I have to pay rent but never collects. She pushes me to be my best and always finds just the right time to say shes proud.
My mom has been my constant, shes my light when its dark, gives me guidance when I'm lost and tells me when I'm wrong. SHE IS MY VERY BEST FRIEND and THE VERY BEST MOM!

The Hero's of my Life!

ITS BEEN A LONG TIME. . .
So these next 30 days im going to try and do a post everyday on things that are myHEROS IN LIFE!!

PS this may take me more then 30 days but Im going to try really hard!

Dance moves I wish I had!

My Nana from Australia sent this to me in an emial. Someone had emailed it to her and she asked me if all American kids danced like this. . . If only I was so lucky to dance as good as this little guy. PS I love the move that goes with the part of the whole club was looking at her, Thats the best move and when he smacks his butt.

To my sister Elesha

This last week my sister Elesha passed away. It was unexpected and we didn't get to say our good-byes but the knowledge that we have that we will see her again keeps us all comforted. It really makes you hold those moments that you have with your family special because you never know when the last one will be. May we never take them for granted and may we make every moment count.

Hair. . .

I have had long hair my entire life. . . I finally got the nerve to cut it and I love it. I feel so liberated and I am really glad I cut it. I thought i would cry but after the horrible 2 weeks i had I was just so ready for a change. . .
