Happy Birthday, Hubby!!

Happy Birthday, Michael. I'm so happy that I have you and am able to celebrate your special day. Today was an extra special day because I thought and prayed for you all day. I wanted God to send you extra blessings today and again you continue to show your love towards me. It was your day and yet, you wanted to know what I wanted to do. I hope you had a wonderful day. I know you are enjoying your birthday gift--your iphone. Looking forward to celebrating some more this next week on the cruise!

I love you!
Amy

Happy Birthday, Mom!

Happy Birthday Mom! God has blessed me with the best mom in the world. God knew everything that I would need and my mom is perfect! I missed being with her today and miss being with her most days. I'm so glad we are able to Skype each other almost every night. I love to call and talk to her about her class and ask her what she would do in her class. We can spend hours on the phone talking about each others classroom. We both enjoy scrap booking, but don't get to do much of it during the school year. This year we both received MacBook Pros and love to Skype each other one them. (We like being together and on our computers learning how to use them.)
Even though we couldn't be together for her birthday, we will be seeing each other in 13 days. We are going on a cruise over spring break together! We are counting down the days and planning our days on the ship!

Happy Birthday, Mom. Wish I could have been with you today to celebrate, but I guess we will just have to celebrate some more on the cruise! I love you!

What was I thinking. . .

My sweet sister-in-law, Katie, wrote on her blog that she was going to challenge herself to walk 280 miles before her vacation at the end of May. She chose 280 miles because that's how far the destination is from her house. So in my excitement for her, I wrote her and told her that I would "walk" with her. I should have done the math before I said I would walk with her. I have to walk 3 MILES EVERY DAY FOR THE NEXT 90 DAYS!!! YIKES, what was I thinking! I bought a pedometer 2 days after I committed to this journey. I am excited to say I have walked over 7 miles since last Thursday. I'm going to update my count in the top right corner of my blog. Stay posted for updates. I wish I lived closer so that I could walk with Katie and not just long distance.
