Bebo Norman, Natalie Grant, & Jeremy Camp concert

So these arnt in any order, but Mark and I went to Jeremy Camp concert this past Sunday (Nov. 01, 2009) in Abilene. It was so much fun...but it was a fast trip. We had my grandpas birthday party on Saturday and then left to go there Sunday and then to come back Monday morning so I could go to work. Mark loves to listen to Jeremy Camp's music and has been really wanting to see him in concert. So he planned it like a month or two ago and we were so excited to go. Bebo Norman and Natalie Grant opened up for him, and they both were awesome. I loved Natalie Grants turn on the stage. She had me bawling, lol. The things she said and the music she sang spoke to me. She said...Greater things are yet to come, Greater things are yet to be done....and thats a song, which she explained she didnt write but the story in itself is touching. Here are some pics of the concert.

I loved this pic of this guy lifting his hands praising God during one of Jeremy Camps song!!

This is Bebo Norman....They said you can have cameras, but not to use the flash....well.....I didnt get alot because of that at the beginning, then I was like, shoot...im going to use my flash, lol

Bebo, came out right before Jeremy Camp came out, and was talking...hes so funny...he said back in the day, Jeremy used to open up for HIM, lol

Natalie Grant!!!

These are her twins...they were so cute. She said before the concert, one of them asked her WHY cant we go out there on stage with her?? she said, you are, your just on the side....and then they little girl goes, NO, i want to be ON stage with you...so she let them come out...their names are Bella and Grace.

2nd Annual Drug Free Parade at BBCS

This week we had our Drug Free Week at the school I work at. It was our 2nd Annual Drug Free Parade that we do around our neighborhood. We will have a story in the paper coming up soon, so you can check that out!!! Heres some pics!!

Also the kids decorated wagons and threw out water balloon yo-yo's, candy, and animal balloons to the neighboorhood. We had flag carriers, a drummer, cheerleaders and our own little JROTC. We had so many kids absent because of all the sickness going around. So we had some parents come out and help with it all.

Birthday Cake

So this year for my birthday, I wanted to make one of those fondant cakes that you see on TV. I looked some stuff up and asked a friend who does cakes how to do it, and what I needed to do. It didnt seem to bad. Well....It wasnt as hard as I thought it would be. I didnt have alot of items and didnt have the money to go buy it, so I "ghetto" did it, lol. But for my first cake, and trying to hurry and make it, I dont think it turned out so bad. I think the circles should of been smaller and of course its not perfect and smooth. The sad part is it...I didnt eat it, lol. I dont like cake all that much. I had a bite of it, but I really dont like how fondant tastes. Its not good at all, or maybe what I bought wasnt good, lol. But i thought it looked pretty.

You can tell its crooked and slanted and not smooth. I dont think I have the patience for this kind of a thing, lol

You can see the candles at the bottom. Well i bought these candles but I didnt want to punch holes all in the cake, so I got some extra fondant and put em on it.

I love the detail of this building

Oh, Hong Kong Gardens...this is a hole in the wall restaurant, that I have been going to since i was like 3 or 4. This was my moms first Chinese restaurant that she ever went too.

She made my day

Rachel, I think you need to be a writter, not to be funny at all, but you write very well. Now on to the blog itself, you are such a strong person to have gone through what you have gone through at such a young age.I do believe that you are going to live for a long, long, time, and that me and you are gonna still be talking on the front porch when we are 70! I know you and Mark are going to have BABIES. I just dont know when, only God knows that. You are the strongest Christian woman I know and I am glad you are my friend. =)


Thanks Rebecca!!! You really made my day and reassured me that God is on my side and he will give me the desires of my heart!!!
Heres a link to my friends blog....check her out!!!

Happy Birthday to ME!!!

I turned 24 on October 4th. My husband took me to Dallas for my birthday, just me and him and we had a blast. We went to our favorite restaurant down there, that I have been eating at since I was 4 called Hong Kong Gardens and we went to Sam Moons and I got me 2 purses. We also went to a comedy club down there. One of the comedians was Theo Von from Road Rules on MTV several years back. We got to meet them and take pictures. The next day we went downtown and ate at the Spaghetti Warehouse and we went to the JFK museum...which that was awesome. We went to the same floor that Oswald shot him.

Here are some pics that I have done.....I am going to post more later.
