Almost May...

I can't believe it is almost MAY! Here are a few snapshots off of my phone (as my computer has crashed recently and I am using Jeovany's laptop.) We have had a very busy Spring. I will have more time to update a blog after May 1st comes and goes.

Jazmyn will be going to Kindergarten this coming August. We had K enrollment and she seems pretty excited about school. Some days she is a little apprehensive, but I honestly think that is only because she can sense my lack of excitement that my BABY is going to KINDERGARTEN and I don't get to go with her everyday. I am trying to stay positive and more importantly ONLY let her see how "excited" I am for her! =( I will certainly miss her though! She is growing up so fast!

Here are a few pieces of her recent artwork. She tells me she wants to be a designer!........
Our most recent skating trip with all the kids! They had a blast and were wore out!


Be back next month......hopefully!

Time FLIES!

What a year this has been already! I can not believe it is already MARCH! For those of you who have been asking me for an update....I am sorry that I have not updated my blog for 2 months, but HERE it is!


Our family has had a busy couple of months. After spending as much time as was possible over the Holidays with Chad and his family, it seem we have played catch up ever since. It was worth every second of it though! I am sure that Walter has changed so much since his visit here. Crawling and soon to be walking...then running. Time sure does fly, and we sure do miss them.


Mom and I have been busy "working" our spa business. I say working, but it is just so much fun that it barely seem like work. I love my j.o.b. We are currently in some very important stages in our business. Mom is in month 5 of her Mustang Leadership Program which means in less than 2 months (55 days actually) we will earn our very first 2011 Ford Mustang! Free and clear, no strings attached, title and keys in hand! I am in month 5 of my Director In Qualification period. This means less than 2 months and I promote as a Director. We have worked hard for these milestones and can't wait to celebrate them with our phenomenal team!


A year ago, this month, I was undergoing brain surgery. Some days it seems like years ago, and then other days I can hardly believe it's already been a year. I am happy to say, I feel wonderful. I seldom have headaches. I have only had one episode of the pressure headache, but I was also battling pneumonia at the time. My hair is still growing in from surgery, it's about 5 inches long or so. During the time of my worst symptoms I started needing to wear glasses to better my vision. I, however, never wore them because they gave me more headaches. About a month ago, I was presribed contacts and I am LOVING being able to see clearly!
Jeovany has been working about an hour and half from home M-Th. He stays with a friend close to where he is working to cut down on spending so much money on gas. I don't like having him away, but we are adjusting and LOVE seeing him on Thursday nights, and all weekend long! Jazmyn is doing well. She is loving preschool again this year. She made friends very quickly with a boy named Boston and they seemed inseparable the first half of the year. Now, there is a new girl with whom she spends most of her time. I can't believe just 5 more short months and my BABY will be going to Kindergarten! Once again, TIME FLIES! She is anxiously excited to go to K, however, I am just anxious. I am not sure how it will be not seeing her alllll day long. Pray for us come AUGUST!
We had some family portraits taken in Jan. Many of you have seen them on facebook, but here are a few of my favorites again. I hope each and every one of you are doing wonderful! We would love to hear from you.
