Happy Birthday to Me....

Yeah, I'm 29, Yesterday was my birthday!!! It started off really good. Got a good morning kiss from my son, and husband. They both told me they Loved me, and that just made my morning. Well the day progressed. By noon, I was wanting to just go back to bed and get up again. Ever thing was screwed up at work. Just about every piece of paper we pick up there was something wrong with it. Plus, I miss birthday girl, crashed the system at work. I have no idea what happened, it just decided to crash on me. I got very emotional (crying). Because, I work for my Dad and Mom. My Dad is a very hard person to read. He wants the best for girls. I to be honest have not done my best. It is a very hard thing to explain but I have always tried to impress my Dad. I let him down all the time. I know I let him down because he never says anything to me. That's all I ever wanted was to be the light in my Dad's eye's. And I guess since I am still working for him that feeling of wanting to impress him still stands. I started working for day since I was 14 and I'm still here. I drop out of collage to get married, and I know that was disappointing. It's just that I'm secure here, I'm stuck in a shell, and I don't want to change. Or that's how I feel right now. Anyway I just don't wont him to be disappointed anymore in me than he already is. And here I crashed the system. So anyway, It was a emotional roller coaster yesterday. It got better my mom planed a supper at a Colton's. My Uncle and Aunt came in from Indiana. So they where there, also my sister came. And low and behold, my Dad walks in the door. What did I tell you my Dad is a very hard person to read. Anyway feelings so far of being 29. Happy, Upset, Glad, and Regret. Happy to be 29, Thanks you God for giving me one more year to be older. Upset that I screwed up the computer. Glad that my family took me out for supper last night, and they where all there. Regret that this all had to happen when I'm a year older. So all I've got left to say, Happy Birthday to Me!!!!

This is our Life...

OK, I know, it's been awhile since I have blog. But we have been very busy. Two weeks ago my husband and I, got to perform for our home church. Nothing big, we just put together some songs that we sing as solo's. We where very honored and touched by the invitation to come and share. We just felt the spirit of God move over us. We have never done this before, so it was a good practice night for us. It went fine, it's just we kept picking up a football game on our monitor. Not a good thing when it comes through while your singing. It turned out better than what we expected. We proved to ourselves that this is what God has blessed us to do. Sing, Praise and Worship God.
So that happened, next event in our lives was my Mom's 52 birthday. We celebrated her birthday by taking her shopping and eating at Olive Garden. While we went shopping, I got a little of a start on Carson's 3rd birthday coming up in a few months. His theme this year is trains. So we are doing Thomas the Train. I didn't realize that there was so much stuff that went along with Trains. Anyway, I just can't believe that he will be 3 in Nov. it's very exciting because he is getting so big and smart. But on the other hand, he's not my baby, he is my big boy now. But that's life, changing very fast.
We also got to go to Pumpkin Hollow this past weekend. Carson got to feed the goats, feed the chicken's and pet the rabbits. He got to ride horses, go on a Hayride. And ride a train, walk through corn mazes. And to top off the day Carson got to chase a Pig. He didn't know what to do and I felt sorry for him. But before we left, we got to pick out a pumpkin. Got our pictures made in the pumpkin patch. We just had a very fun filled day.
As the year end creeps upon us, there is still so much to see and do. We have another trip to Branson, Thanksgiving and Birthday within a few weeks. So we will face it head on and reflect on how we live day by day, because This is our Life....
