One.

The. Time. Is. Now. 

Yes my friends the time is now and that has been my motto for the past few months. I've wanted to blog for so long, but I made EVERY excuse possible to keep from it but finally from a generous push from on of my besties, Taryn who blogs at bowlingsbusylife I got started! I'm starting this blog to keep an accountability, if you will, about my life. In the past year and especially the past few months I've dealt with so many different trials and blessings. I wanted to start this blog to let people (even if only my friends read it) know that no matter what comes to us in this life that we CAN overcome! I've dealt with, loss, marital trouble, grief, sickness, saddness, seems like in the past year i've had a dose of it all... BUT i'm still here! I'm still happy! One of my absolute favorite verses is The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they might have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. John 10:10. That's an absolute promise to us! So whatever we are going through or facing... it gets better! We have to allow it, and with that I decided now is the time, to start living my life how God wants it, to get myself healthy, be the best wife possible, and to just be happy and content! There is so much to be thankful for!

Back to the "accountability" I started a new "healthy" lifestyle a few weeks back. With some really hard work and not eating chocolate donuts like thats all there was left on earth... i've been able to lose 14lbs and slowly but surely getting my butt in shape! So as hard as it is for me to go public with this, it is also the best motivator! Now that i'm letting everyone know, I have to be held accountable!

So join me ya'll on this craaaaazzzzy ride of life! While i'm getting skinny, figuring out how to be an adult, getting better at this married stuff, and dealing with everything life has to offer! =)

Thats 5-0 Hubby! Isn't he cute??
