Happy Birthday To Me!!

Yes, today is my birthday! i'm 29 and holding. Life is good. My family is healthy and happy. i like my job. wish we were in a posiition where i didn't have to but the hours arent' bad and i get to see my husband. The Lord has blessed me and continues to do so.

**If i could have but one wish it would be to be able to eat whatever i wanted and not worry about my weight or if its healthy or not. i seriously LOVE to eat and cook. i've been cooking a lot lately and i really enjoy it.

**For Mother's Day Brian and the kids bought me a porch swing and put it together....together ....and i love it!

On Monday we leave for California!! This trip is kind of anniversary/birthday put together. Can't wait! Our pastor and Brian are going to a conference at Saddleback and the pastor's wife and myself will be hanging out in california eating and shopping!! We will probably get to see Brock while we're there too! auny will be visiting her fam in texas..oh well.

**My weight goal was 135lbs before i left on this trip but i didn't make it and that's ok. i'm keeping the weight off - so to speak - and that's more important. i'll probably leave on the trip around 140lbs and try very hard to keep it off.

Recipe Blog...

I update this weekly. If any of you are interested in putting some of your recipes on it e-mail me at...

bsmrbritt@yahoo.com

At the moment i'm making copies of all the recipes on the site that i like (sometimes i put recipes on there that i think others may like) and i'm going to put them in 2 binders: one for my car and one for the house. i'll put each recipe in a plastic page protector so i can easily take them out as i need them. i'm keeping a copy in my car so i don't use the excuse.."i don't have the recipe so we'll just have sandwiches tonight".

Sorry no pics at this time...

Basically my hair is shoulder length w/ layers. Yesterday i got red highlights. Subtle but just enough to notice. i can't find my camera that's why there aren't any picutes.

Hair Cut today 3:30!!!

I haven't cut my hair in 2 1/2 years..and today's the day. I'll post pictures next week. don't know what i'm gonna do so it'll be a surprise even to me!

a prayer concern for Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana

This post isn't about slamming another "Disney star" that has been "gone down the wrong road" a.k.a. britney and lindsey. it's a prayer concern. most of my friends have young children. as a mother i search for someone my little girl can not necessarily look up to but at least watch their show knowing nothing vulgar or inappropriate is going to happen. i was so hopeful for this little girl. she and her dad really seemed to have a grasp on things. they proclaim to be christians - and i'm not saying they aren't. just b/c she made a wrong decision doesn't mean she's not a christian. we all make wrong decisions - sin. it's is all the same in the Lord's eyes, granted there are different consequences for each sin.

she always wore cute fashionable clothing that covered her body. her songs were clean and fun not nasty and distasteful. last week i was sickened by the photos that came out. and others that have come out besides the "vanity fair" ones. they show a little girl that has gotten caught up in hollywood. she is 15 years old making photos for a non-teenage magazine. this mag. isn't known for it's "sqeakey clean" photos. i also read that she's going to have a guest appearance on "housewives". HELLO. sick sick sick. and as her career as skyrocketed i'll be honest, her clothing has covered less and less. if you look back at her Disney show that started in '06. she was 13 years old. she looked 13 yrs old. acted 13 yrs. old. dressed 13 yrs. old. now she looks like she's 25 and it seems that her parents have forgotten that she's a TEENAGER.

instead of trashing her, let's pray for her. it wasn't too long ago that i almost posted a prayer concern for this family. i didn't b/c i thought it might sound a little silly. but now she needs our prayers more than ever. i don't want comments on your personal opinion of her or tv or hollywood....i just want us as christians to say, "yeah we'll pray for her" and hollywood for that matter.
