Dum Dee Dee Dum . . .

Can you believe that we are half way through the month of January already? It is so very crazy to me how quickly time just seems to fly by each and every month. I am so looking forward to this three day weekend. Karl and I will be able to work some more on the house and maybe just get to hang out. Hopefully it will warm up some tomorrow so we can take Kiana to the park - I think that would be so much fun!

We just got one of our new pillows fixed - thank God for Ashley!! :) But poor Kiana, had to stay in the bedroom. She just gets too darn excited. But that's why I love her.

Exciting things to come: I start my grad classes on Tuesday! Yeah, I am so excited. :) I am totally being positive. Also, we are taking part in a new study at CCSA that is called "The Truth Project". I am so excited to begin this "journey" and to learn more about myself. Just in one night Karl and I had so many great discussions. It is amazing how God's truths have been distorted by the world we live in. The one lie that I had been believing for so long is that people are innately good. I have learned that the this couldn't be farther from the truth. I learned that this world is in the realm of the Devil; this is his world. Therefore, we are not innately good. Once Adam and Eve were deceived in the garden, we became children of the Devil. Once we accept Christ into our hearts, we become children of God. I absolutely love this.

For so long in my life I had a hard time with my accepting of Christ because I did not change much. With that I mean that I did not have the drastic change that so many individuals have in their accepting Christ. For I while I did good with reading the Word and doing the things that I felt God called me to but since college, I have really slacked off.

I am currently doing a bible study that Karl bought me for Christmas that focuses on women that have followed in Christ's footsteps. It has been interesting, but not as fulfilling as I know it could be. I am looking forward to a book that I just purchased to do with Mara and Sharon. It looks like it will be very good for me as a woman of Christ.

Well, I better get back to my husband. Until later . . .

If this happens one more time . . .

Anyone know a good cell phone service provider? This is the second time that we worked with someone at AT&T and I am about ready to switch providers. We went in there today to get my phone moved to Karl's plan, which we had to get a form filled out by my mom (well, kinda :), it helps when I can sign like mom; it's not like I didn't have her permission) in order to do so. We walked in and talked to this guy, gave him the form, and we thought that he understodd what we needed to be done and he just started going. We got to the point where I would pick out a phone and he started getting stuff ready and I re-asked him, after he wanted to know what number I wanted to use for it, if my phone was now on Karl's plan and he just went crazy on us. Basically he said that we never told him that that is what we wanted. He was very rude, basically saying that it was our fault that he did all this work for nothing. It was very disheartening and I really wanted to tell him to forge...

New Journey . . . Diamond Club

What does it take to make a diamond? Any ideas? According to Wikipedia, you know the source for all things, a diamond is "formed at high temperature[s] and pressure". Karl and I are excited to announce that we will be taking part in journey. A journey that will, hopefully, push us to Diamond. It will take a lot of work but we are excited for this opportunity for our team. What is Diamond Club? Why is this so exciting? Maybe this video will explain it better. Diamond Club creates a great opportunity for EVERYONE! It allows Karl and I to travel to areas that want to grow and also allows for new members to receive additional products with their enrollment and subsequent LRP orders. Free stuff??? Yes, please!!! It really is a great opportunity for everyone on our team. We are looking forward to the immense growth that will happen because of this wonderful opportunity. So you may be asking, how do I get involved? What does this look like exactly? Basically we...

Writer's Corner Number 8

Typed from written Journal Entry: I thought I’d change it up a bit and try writing in journal form tonight. I am also curious to see the difference in length of writing for both writing formats. Dr. Semingson suggested incorporating pictures into our journal writings/posts. I don’t have any pics from growing up – they are all at my dad’s house in Michigan – but I can start adding new pics from Alaska, especially when it comes time to talk about our honeymoon adventures there. Today I want to start by talking about earthquakes. I want to preface this “talk” with a story from when I moved to Texas. Not long into the start of my 7th grade year we practice emergency drills. I remember one of my teachers talking about what to do in case of an emergency: crouch down with your head near a wall and cover your head. I remember thinking that getting near a wall wouldn’t be the safest thing in the world but I didn’t argue – I didn’t know what that emergency drill was for. Now that I’m olde...
