Not a Surprise Anymore!!!

Well, I made it. I got my blue line to go below the red one!!!! I've surpassed one of my first MAJOR goals in this really long journey. I'm over 1/4 of the way to my goal weight!!So, here is the purse! I was so proud of my self when I walked into school with this:

Yes, it's purple leather!! Can you stand it?? It's not like anything I've ever bought before. All my purses, well the nice ones anyways, are all brown or black so that you can carry them with anything. Well, I spotted this one, and knew right away, it was the one I wanted!! I even love the way it smells.....

Thanks Shannon. It was a great way to show your support!! You know my "love language," that's for sure!!!

I've got a few other posts floating in my head, but I am exhausted. It's only a quarter to 9:00 and I'm ready for bed. I'll try to post a few of the tens of thousands of thoughts in my mind in the next few days.

But I will say, if you're the praying type, pray for Landon. We're not real sure what is going on with him as far as his health goes and there are a lot of unanswered questions. It could be nothing, but it could be something, we're just not real sure. Pray for wisdom on the part of Shannon and I to seek the help and advice we need, and to not listen to EVERYONE who has a comment. Pray that the Lord will lay on our hearts what we need to do. There are just a lot of question marks, and we're looking for answers to questions we don't know how to ask.

Way to go Shelly! This is so awesome. I know it's taking a lot of hard work and a big time commitment. That purple purse is so fun. Great color choice. It will be perfect at Homecoming! ha ha. Can you believe it was a year ago that we were sitting at Tunes together?

Shelley - THAT IS AWESOME. I've been checking everyday to see that purse!! I can't wait to see what your next reward is for getting 1/2 way to your goal.

We are praying for Landon and do NOT feel pressured to come here this weekend if Landon needs to stay home. We totally understand!

BUT, if you do come, call me first and let me know what food items I can have on hand for you and Landon (oh, and Shannon too, I guess - ha).
