Well, let's just say being a busy boy mom has taken over my life the last few years. My son is now 14, and life is slowing down just a tad. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixVTnaFuTDxjeOJCLjOIAOPmmFk-WRZYyPWjJGeX8erhBXE59eUgQfw-FVOAcgUi2TXvSRI0Skihyphenhyphens5-pACIyNOWDBeIHYrUU_J295zKJ4wplCzCj94-SSAilYv1hDERpx7UxraLJBQA/s1600/zach.jpg" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixVTnaFuTDxjeOJCLjOIAOPmmFk-WRZYyPWjJGeX8erhBXE59eUgQfw-FVOAcgUi2TXvSRI0Skihyphenhyphens5-pACIyNOWDBeIHYrUU_J295zKJ4wplCzCj94-SSAilYv1hDERpx7UxraLJBQA/s320/zach.jpg" width="320" height="320" data-original-width="540" data-original-height="540" /></a>

This year, he left him an LSU Santa hanging on his wall above his bed. He was soooo excited! He also decorated his dresser with some holiday fun!<br /><br />I really want to get a Nativity Scene for next christmas. We have a small one in Zachary's room on his dresser. I use to have a big one but in all of our moves, it got broken. I think that will be on my New Year's to do list!! Buy one before next year!<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!

I'm trying really hard this year to teach my 4 year old what the real reason for the season is. As much fun as we have had talking about Santa and his elf, Marty Mistletoe that comes to visit him each year, I want him to know that the true meaning is all about our Saviour Jesus Christ. That he is the real reason for the season! I want him to know the true gift of giving and I so much want his heart to be a heart of love and forgiveness. I love this saying that I came across: "Christmas is forever, not for just one day. For loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away,like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf...the good you do for others is good you do yourself."~Norman Wesley Brooks, "Let Every Day Be Christmas,". I love this time of the year and we have started our decorating and it is so much fun! Thought I would share a few pics! We actually had SNOW this past weekend for the 2nd year in a row!! Seriously, a lot of you are probably wondering what the big deal is.... but for Louisiana that is quite RARE!!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrGlA_eSvjt4VFXnLnc0cOKNhx4DQ7Fcn8Eh0u33vnlg9-MN7h3ga5A3ANNFU_HQzmxhVU0bpCRcIhegwU50RsfOoeKxMlma-vfTO7r2Nihwo_Dp1xj-2KBXCktUeVwqt8SqXZVSnh4w/s1600-h/christmas+photo+3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrGlA_eSvjt4VFXnLnc0cOKNhx4DQ7Fcn8Eh0u33vnlg9-MN7h3ga5A3ANNFU_HQzmxhVU0bpCRcIhegwU50RsfOoeKxMlma-vfTO7r2Nihwo_Dp1xj-2KBXCktUeVwqt8SqXZVSnh4w/s320/christmas+photo+3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413410089666149810" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_qUwdrpFp8DFQwiUuPTm_WIGOhjYT4Z8V-k5J34qNQdEQcnwMqier7bMsMZDNRoz6SuaORqUwZBZq3iYLXVPIUeKIxuvcGjMfdRnPrphrvnX4Xs5OGkwvVMF35XMwqNm2WjFfa_J5VA/s1600-h/christmas+photo.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_qUwdrpFp8DFQwiUuPTm_WIGOhjYT4Z8V-k5J34qNQdEQcnwMqier7bMsMZDNRoz6SuaORqUwZBZq3iYLXVPIUeKIxuvcGjMfdRnPrphrvnX4Xs5OGkwvVMF35XMwqNm2WjFfa_J5VA/s320/christmas+photo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413409894755859234" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixV_VXiJk_SdnR2w8gSV_ogUvVuwdU4prt7VwtEgcIVLD6MsyoENWOupapKb_k2mtVNOLqp1qGIsl3huzcC6N0soeVGs-VVYA1fliQkigVP3QWJDJxuDk-dl3qe4OQVgH0qw1-865tQA/s1600-h/christmas+photo+2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixV_VXiJk_SdnR2w8gSV_ogUvVuwdU4prt7VwtEgcIVLD6MsyoENWOupapKb_k2mtVNOLqp1qGIsl3huzcC6N0soeVGs-VVYA1fliQkigVP3QWJDJxuDk-dl3qe4OQVgH0qw1-865tQA/s320/christmas+photo+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413409762277201042" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTGW9Js4YwLHlw9IM3u0dco3z3Xx8tVlBJz8xTTNohMlDkBz4GIJs9s8Qo4Jd9o-JCVvLEmYeHvYRxV2GlPXQu-aGktsKy0pL3-SfGsWajZP8Vv-1bhMKQ9EUDLXhpMrSNd7pbUvLTcw/s1600-h/christmas+photo+4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTGW9Js4YwLHlw9IM3u0dco3z3Xx8tVlBJz8xTTNohMlDkBz4GIJs9s8Qo4Jd9o-JCVvLEmYeHvYRxV2GlPXQu-aGktsKy0pL3-SfGsWajZP8Vv-1bhMKQ9EUDLXhpMrSNd7pbUvLTcw/s320/christmas+photo+4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413410235043328034" /></a><br /><br />Sending Christmas Blessings your way!<br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-58949304678151102552009-10-06T17:05:00.001-07:002009-10-06T17:10:49.332-07:00Happy Fall Y'all!I don't know about you, but I am sooooo excited to finally feel a little fall in the air! Fall is my most FAVORITE time of the year! Pumpkin candles, the smell of leaves burning, fall decorations, the fall fair, just a few of my favorite things! Zachary keeps asking me mommy is it fall yet? He's so cute! I adore that child! He's all excited about going to the pumpkin patch and trick r treat. These are such sweet times and I pray the go by slowly. I LOVE being a mom! God gives us many, many blessings in life, but being a mom surpasses so many things! It can be trying at times, but in Christ alone we make it! That reminds me of one of my favorite songs by Travis Crotrell! Click to listen if you haven't heard it before! It is AWESOME!!<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZFzsU6u853I&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZFzsU6u853I&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> How lucky are we than we can know that anything is possible through GOD alone!

We just got back from vacation in Hawaii and I think I might finally be catching up! The time difference almost killed us! :) I have to say though, Hawaii is beautiful beyond words. I feel so blessed that we were able to visit such a beautiful place. Zachary had so much fun and was not ready to go home! The plane ride went really well, he did great! Now, it is just getting back into the routine of school and everything else!

This summer just seemed to fly by! It seems like the older Zach gets the faster the time goes. He is already 4 1/2. It seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital! We had an awesome summer though! I feel so blessed and am so thankful to be able to stay home with him and spend the time with him that I do. I have an awesome husband who works so hard so that I am able to do that and for him I am very thankful! I haven't been blogging lately because I have been on the run with Zachary. He had a 2 day summer camp this year at our church that he LOVED, there have been swim lessons, play dates.... you get the picture! :) He starts Pre~k next week! We go tonight to meet his new teacher! He is so excited! Here are a few pics of our summer fun!

It has been a busy, busy week! This has been our week for vacation bible school at church and as much fun as it has been, I am looking forward to tonight being the last night! We have had a large turn out this year, over 200 children! God has sent the children! I decided to help with snacks this year and it is so much fun seeing how much children... including mine.. enjoy those sweet goodies! I do have to say though.... it has been taking some time getting Zachary to wind down after a night at VBS. Last night we came home and he immediately got into a spiderman costume and preceded to believe he was spiderman! Here is a cute pic I snapped of him. Such sweet times and exhausting as well! :)<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhezWx2reYYdoAHmiPNA_6oBOnZke4aS-UakMPHy2WevTH2uTrkSclN05gVDGS3hGNOSihBMn2WipiGin5HuJIESvsFpsE2P6xzlixfau6yOWAzcdWARlH6OwGu7onUd-5GtRIG1a13Aw/s1600-h/zach+spiderman.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhezWx2reYYdoAHmiPNA_6oBOnZke4aS-UakMPHy2WevTH2uTrkSclN05gVDGS3hGNOSihBMn2WipiGin5HuJIESvsFpsE2P6xzlixfau6yOWAzcdWARlH6OwGu7onUd-5GtRIG1a13Aw/s320/zach+spiderman.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5362111538817717890" /></a><br />Thanks for stopping by!

It seems like my 4 year old has a busier social calender than I do! Ha! We have really had a fun time so far and we are looking forward to our upcoming vacation to Hawaii! Zach (my 4 year old) has never flown before, so we are a little apprehensive about the long plane ride. I've been gathering things together for him to do on the plane to keep him busy. Any ideas would be welcomed! It seems like you always think there won't be enough to do when school is out.... but then summer gets here and it is non~stop! Wouldn't trade it for the world though! <br /><br />I love meeting new bloggers and visiting other blog pages so this week I am participating in a Blog Hop! All there is to do is post a favorite pic and put the link!

I came across this company called Kookie Stationary! They make ADORABLE cookies that you can personalize with your own message. They come with a food safe pen. Totally cute!! They even have some that you can use as tags for gifts. I think that was such a creative idea!

How about a Strawberry Margarita Cake?! A good friend of mine had made one for a party and it tasted great! I came across this recipe from All-Recipes.com and can't wait to try it out! Thought I would share the recipe!<br /><br /><br /><br />Strawberry Margarita Cake<br /><br /> * 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix<br /> * 3 egg whites<br /> * 1/2 cup water<br /> * 1/3 cup vegetable oil<br /> * 3/4 cup strawberry margarita mix<br /> * 1 (16 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed<br /> * 2 tablespoons grated lime zest<br /><br /> DIRECTIONS<br /><br /> 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.<br /> 2. In a large bowl, stir together cake mix, egg whites, oil, water and margarita mix. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.<br /> 3. Frost cooled cake with whipped topping and sprinkle lime zest over top. Refrigerate until serving.<br /><br />I am starting a recipe blog and will adding this to it! Of course.... this surely isn't on my P90x Food list, but hey.... everyone needs a little treat to be able to keep it going! =)<br /><br />Hope everyone is having an awesome summer!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-43582967750364053462009-06-08T14:23:00.000-07:002009-06-08T14:33:36.620-07:00Summer has Begun!Well, I truly thought I was going to be able to blog about my daily experience with P90x, but between exercising for an hour each day and keeping up with my 4 y.o. there has been little time to even think about blogging! I am starting week 3 of P90X and loving it! It is a very intense workout, but I am already loosing inches and feeling so much better. Zach started swim lessons today. I was really stressed this morning because he has been saying the last couple of weeks that he did not want to take this year. Last year he didn't get to finish because he got sick. So, it was kind of like starting all over this year. He had a few moments, but overall did really well! The summer is definitely off to a busy start! I love it though, and am trying to enjoy this sweet time with Zach. I know it won't be long and he will be all grown up! Life is so good and we are so blessed! Hope your summer is going well too! If any of you are doing the P90x program, I would LOVE to hear from you! Also, be sure to check out laurennicolegifts.blogspot.com. She has some AWESOME giveaways!!<br /><br />Here is a pic of my little man in his swim gear!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-umqIsZ3Y7CFKt0cOkXqQaMYZJkkLufcx1rH5NM6hyZ_mlufwhU6eOce6RmK2N9QkVKBdhP6Er-lZemHyTyynOD0Fsc3gTUl0b38T8Wol31-W37-ahd5Gz-sg0xI8ExtLDOczA8b-Ew/s1600-h/DSCN0790.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-umqIsZ3Y7CFKt0cOkXqQaMYZJkkLufcx1rH5NM6hyZ_mlufwhU6eOce6RmK2N9QkVKBdhP6Er-lZemHyTyynOD0Fsc3gTUl0b38T8Wol31-W37-ahd5Gz-sg0xI8ExtLDOczA8b-Ew/s320/DSCN0790.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345072441005275842" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-80802030897524291252009-05-27T06:17:00.000-07:002009-05-27T06:23:53.391-07:00P90X......... Trying to Bring It!!!Ok, so I haven't blogged lately.... but I have a good excuse! HA! My husband and I have been getting all prepared to start the P90x workout program! This is the beginning of our 2nd week..... let me say... this program is NOT for the faint of heart!! LOL! I am really enjoying it, and really sore too! The program uses muscle confusion, so it works your entire body and right when one set of muscles are sore and fatigued, the next workout you are targeting other muscle groups. Today is Shoulders, Back and Ab Ripper.... whew! I am going to take some pics later today and post. You are suppose to take a pic the 1st day you start, then day 30,60 and 90. We are going to Hawaii in 90 days, so I am really focused at this point! I will also post some recipes later today that we have used from the plan that are really good! Let me know if any of you out there are also on the program! Would love to have some online friends to support each other! <br /><br />Bringing It!!<br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-70420825914718019722009-05-07T09:25:00.000-07:002009-05-07T09:47:07.384-07:00I love my Life as a Mommy and a Wife!With Mother's Day right around the corner, I am reminded at how blessed I am to be a mother. It is truly one of God's most precious gifts! I also remember though those Mother's Days before Zach and my heart truly goes out to all women who are longing to be a mom. I know this will be a bitter sweet day for them. My prayer is that they will feel God's love for them and know that he has a plan and his time is not our time. That was the hardest for me.... like everything else in my life I wanted it RIGHT THEN! But during that wait that is the time that I learned the most about myself and my faith. It was truly one of the most challenging times but the most awesome as well. We are truly blessed with a precious child and I thank God every day for him. He has brought so much joy us! Life is a journey and just try to see what it is that God wants you to learn while you wait! I'm praying for all of you! <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfgbpIcfYADPyAG6plPwYWK1xB7eGynVfnZJWvG-J49C2ICibVwRk9c1lwrF5AS7iDcnfwossnQuaY_Uu-R6kIG2wg-p07yncoMHCm0UJh7CTbRXLrBR3WtrtouQL-YhTnBaEbt8cmvw/s1600-h/DSCN0431.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfgbpIcfYADPyAG6plPwYWK1xB7eGynVfnZJWvG-J49C2ICibVwRk9c1lwrF5AS7iDcnfwossnQuaY_Uu-R6kIG2wg-p07yncoMHCm0UJh7CTbRXLrBR3WtrtouQL-YhTnBaEbt8cmvw/s320/DSCN0431.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333122577904058354" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWAsz4N8P5zjFjso00eciVBuro74fN7kLBAP1MZ-9AbP51Em33sEIFB7PruQl5Pa4RPO7nh1y6SP14TSSrwqwgHY0Z6TLYMievLN8zDF-g4C_0VSCkYdO7M8NUScD7JxRGdliQHlz6PA/s1600-h/106_2010.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWAsz4N8P5zjFjso00eciVBuro74fN7kLBAP1MZ-9AbP51Em33sEIFB7PruQl5Pa4RPO7nh1y6SP14TSSrwqwgHY0Z6TLYMievLN8zDF-g4C_0VSCkYdO7M8NUScD7JxRGdliQHlz6PA/s320/106_2010.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333124212551457122" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-61883891719607199622009-05-04T08:53:00.001-07:002009-05-04T13:34:28.967-07:00Thinking About a New Dining Room Table...I think it is time to start looking for a new dining room table! I've been looking through magazines and some in the stores, but haven't decided on any one design at this point. I love the Mission look, but I don't want anything too trendy. What do you think of this one from World Market? I like the Mahogany!

Well, that is exactly where it seems that I am all the time these days! Zachary is playing T-Ball for the first time and between practice and games, we live at the ballpark! It is soooo much fun though. He is having a blast! He is especially excited because his daddy is coaching his team! I think that is the cutest thing on earth. A bunch of 4 year old little boys on a baseball field! Just had to share a few pics of my little man! I feel so blessed when I am sitting out there watching him play. We went through so much to have such a blessing! It does make me stop and think about all the couples who are struggling with infertility and my heart and prayers truly go out to them. Also, to the couples who are waiting to adopt. My prayer is that they stay strong and keep their faith. God is in control even when we have no hope! <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNeQccVUnapIfx1cSmelbuiV2o3zy6_Szx31KYguwNeNi_CaAkVOwASa9i1uUG3LHlicoG8Q2lyEIw32K5otP7_AeEn3QHVDoTYgEH6krecZYskiPnj95IC2W5xAuhryl1luvfsBLeEg/s1600-h/DSCN0723.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNeQccVUnapIfx1cSmelbuiV2o3zy6_Szx31KYguwNeNi_CaAkVOwASa9i1uUG3LHlicoG8Q2lyEIw32K5otP7_AeEn3QHVDoTYgEH6krecZYskiPnj95IC2W5xAuhryl1luvfsBLeEg/s320/DSCN0723.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330933119513077298" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj32Q9XwoojSci5EGFze0OrrGu-6Ux11nq7IkdZNJyaxOCwg602CylBtZoNzfrIzq48kwQaIkXIpdP1qkmmZwd2I6gLVgmKcolP2jnGeqTzB_0sy9awpEhpbx78bvcIK3Qr-QR99hM80A/s1600-h/DSCN0663.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj32Q9XwoojSci5EGFze0OrrGu-6Ux11nq7IkdZNJyaxOCwg602CylBtZoNzfrIzq48kwQaIkXIpdP1qkmmZwd2I6gLVgmKcolP2jnGeqTzB_0sy9awpEhpbx78bvcIK3Qr-QR99hM80A/s320/DSCN0663.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330934871144530770" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7eI0hUyTNp7daIWtWoLR0GNXjanCm9FS7KgNvji_-Dand4TLT1EHY4qtn6IEUFy2jxl5JjDQPpFoDx9gmMEEbj0F_3Z6H7BySCGPUKLnzR2TABc8OdDmZnw1F0RTNd8kwh6Ta5jR9EA/s1600-h/DSCN0633.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7eI0hUyTNp7daIWtWoLR0GNXjanCm9FS7KgNvji_-Dand4TLT1EHY4qtn6IEUFy2jxl5JjDQPpFoDx9gmMEEbj0F_3Z6H7BySCGPUKLnzR2TABc8OdDmZnw1F0RTNd8kwh6Ta5jR9EA/s320/DSCN0633.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330934866185396546" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIq_FA3ZcYieyJ054bihC-ayMQS3-CPlGFrYDUKJmFzKmPZHGCX03yILoPPD1Gb6y6RixRHpRYqs7soMBm2TlaLUC4GEwRzwgOnUrpmrOYbLImimuSpTEM7oC88-voOkXhpiM_JAGn2A/s1600-h/DSCN0667.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIq_FA3ZcYieyJ054bihC-ayMQS3-CPlGFrYDUKJmFzKmPZHGCX03yILoPPD1Gb6y6RixRHpRYqs7soMBm2TlaLUC4GEwRzwgOnUrpmrOYbLImimuSpTEM7oC88-voOkXhpiM_JAGn2A/s320/DSCN0667.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330934862777735250" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-53808422090391723972009-02-23T13:55:00.000-08:002009-02-23T14:04:35.718-08:00Out with the old... in with the new... or is it really new?!Ok girls, if you are like me, your taste in things changes as quickly as the wind, and with things I buy to decorate my house, well that is no different! With the way the economy is today, I am always looking for inexpensive ways to change up something that I already have, but I still want to have that designer look! Well... I came across this local company here in Baton Rouge called FrockZ! They have come up with such an awesome concept. As you know, lamps are a focal part of any room and really can make it or break it... or at least I think so! It isn't really cheap these days to purchase a new lamp especially if you want it to have that designer look. Well FrockZ had an awesome line of slipcovers for your lampshade! They have tons of beautiful designer fabrics that will allow you to take any old lamp you may already have, one that you find at a thrift store, or that beautiful one that you have now but are just wanting a fresh look. They are one size fits all and slips right onto your lamp shade! I can't wait to order one. I am excited to have found this company and wanted to share it with you. Check their designs at out www.frockz.com. <br /><p><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCprrrAuCo8DimUxZrjCNz0cbNSdAgcd8xD-uUAET6hKWV7kHrEDeYh0Mc_QXe23zfTcUINhH5FjzHigwhTce5L4EYuQZ-60e9T5YaJPo30L2hpbzyJkKQSkBHV8Wm5XlSE0RMiHlMWQ/s1600-h/lamp+cover.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 256px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCprrrAuCo8DimUxZrjCNz0cbNSdAgcd8xD-uUAET6hKWV7kHrEDeYh0Mc_QXe23zfTcUINhH5FjzHigwhTce5L4EYuQZ-60e9T5YaJPo30L2hpbzyJkKQSkBHV8Wm5XlSE0RMiHlMWQ/s320/lamp+cover.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306116570538444754" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-80347012133728878092009-02-21T15:03:00.000-08:002009-02-22T05:32:18.000-08:00Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler!Or in other words.... Let the good Times Roll! It is Mardi Gras weekend here in Louisiana. Being that we only live about an hour from New Orleans there are parades all over the place! Since we've been so busy with other things including getting ready for our trip to Disney, we didn't make it to any parades this year. Needless to say, we have sooooo much stuff left over from last year! Zachary racks up when we hit the Mardi Gras Parades. Last year they threw candy, beads, cups, T~shirts, stuffed animals, you name it... we got it! Krispy Cream Donuts even threw boxes of donuts, Ha! As in true Southern fashion, down south there is always something to celebrate and Mardi Gras Parades are no different. They do everything big in Louisiana when it comes to a party. The local parades are very family oriented and fun. Don't think I would be taking Zachary down to New Orleans.... but locally we have a blast! Here are a few pics from Mardi Gras last year!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnn8i5BlwJ57emTa54hyphenhyphenmVUJwWQPhUbdXr_AHzBFuDfLHCiI5itQ9gi5aOKPjmj2ppqAOP_Y0hTB_ayq4xjp_6b2f8vBUbRAHobS-iZIoYr3P09sq5ecOrfHVByoRszpQg4pcKAecF7w/s1600-h/mardi+gras.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 170px; height: 127px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnn8i5BlwJ57emTa54hyphenhyphenmVUJwWQPhUbdXr_AHzBFuDfLHCiI5itQ9gi5aOKPjmj2ppqAOP_Y0hTB_ayq4xjp_6b2f8vBUbRAHobS-iZIoYr3P09sq5ecOrfHVByoRszpQg4pcKAecF7w/s320/mardi+gras.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305390904278348162" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1-uRrFVkwAxs6e0bZO4wzI7rCtM_hfDbMrs3dHt_3gIQZxS2XQUvAT7ix3Cu_d_F8LXW3_M1JhryEviAl1KMcYxZvBtchNQk7mhUFGtWw2F0thyphenhyphenY82peDuIEVLWhiBAedAYPsAlvXVQ/s1600-h/mardi+gras+2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 170px; height: 226px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1-uRrFVkwAxs6e0bZO4wzI7rCtM_hfDbMrs3dHt_3gIQZxS2XQUvAT7ix3Cu_d_F8LXW3_M1JhryEviAl1KMcYxZvBtchNQk7mhUFGtWw2F0thyphenhyphenY82peDuIEVLWhiBAedAYPsAlvXVQ/s320/mardi+gras+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5305391025887797250" /></a><br />Happy Mardi Gras~!<br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-19205848533925484002009-02-18T12:08:00.000-08:002009-02-18T12:22:25.473-08:00Best Friends.....Had a little "girlfriend therapy" today with my BFF/Cousin Joy! I met her for lunch at one of my favorite places to eat LaShish. It was great catching up over a Chicken Schwarma Salad! One of my favorite things to do is have lunch with my friends. It is a great way to unwind and catch up with what is going on with everyone. Not to mention, just having a quiet and fun dinner without the kids every now and then! I love to laugh over some of our topics... there is never a time we have nothing to discuss! I can't imagine going through life without my girlfriends.... could you?! Here is a pic of Joy.... she wanted us to take one together but the waitress was a little slow coming back to our table and I needed to leave to pic Zach up from school.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjreaNR4ZER3D1DjQr1nZiSsOAe44xeiulEzhynKEnVFrJ277ouvaecbQcXwBRa0PMeHlrHtmzWlYqOFLWQpO5NQuFraRYL0tq5aMhcAPjc65EYTDZ_WIpXEHIPSOU3YtYxfIojIhDMMQ/s1600-h/108_2475.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjreaNR4ZER3D1DjQr1nZiSsOAe44xeiulEzhynKEnVFrJ277ouvaecbQcXwBRa0PMeHlrHtmzWlYqOFLWQpO5NQuFraRYL0tq5aMhcAPjc65EYTDZ_WIpXEHIPSOU3YtYxfIojIhDMMQ/s320/108_2475.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304234223981686178" /></a> <br /><br />Zach had his Best Friend Keagan come home with him after school today to play for the afternoon. They are tooo CUTE and two peas in a pod can I tell you! Listening to 2 four year old little boys carry on a conversation is true entertainment! I just hope I can keep up with them today.... they have wayyyyy more energy than I do that is for sure!!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK5z3Mvmyuv3L9Dm5swmjBzW8OppxCbW1DubNQgc9lnIEYzVBGxV2GuwIOsmRyuMrfkJ85_82rvJkY1Qs8hOsoNR7m7F4d8o1hnj4VYf2OI2Gtzj89xjxooeOXUV1aLS68Nl8-6QqIDQ/s1600-h/108_2476.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK5z3Mvmyuv3L9Dm5swmjBzW8OppxCbW1DubNQgc9lnIEYzVBGxV2GuwIOsmRyuMrfkJ85_82rvJkY1Qs8hOsoNR7m7F4d8o1hnj4VYf2OI2Gtzj89xjxooeOXUV1aLS68Nl8-6QqIDQ/s320/108_2476.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304234842944529698" /></a><br />What a fun day!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-9364708426766551922009-02-16T10:35:00.001-08:002009-02-16T11:09:50.464-08:00M I C K E Y .... M O U S E!Ok, so nobody told me that planning a trip to Disney was like planning for your kids future! Ha! I am so excited, we will be leaving in 10 days!!! I was truly beginning to wonder if I would get it all together. Choosing a resort, scheduling dining, figuring out the transportation system... whew! I can say that I have learned a ton, but we'll see how it goes when we actually get there! Zach is so excited. He keeps measuring himself each day to see how tall he is because he wants so bad to ride the old mountain railroad ride. The last trip to the pediatrician in January he was 38" and he has to be 40 for that particular ride. We keep telling him he has to eat all his vegetables and drink all of his milk to grow! ha! He is too cute... he is definitely trying that is for sure! Here is a pic of him checking out how tall he is!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3GVSOO2XPXCTKGSXu_O8Ln7tr7J6KLlUYoavk8pAUAkYGHdOJFjjrdzG2-UD8Y_0llN4SDofyKGh8QL2rdYbYc-Ex-lFZqchiuPL64gvd8M2O9MsjsPflqF0HhLDHskF9mvWK4y48g/s1600-h/108_2473.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3GVSOO2XPXCTKGSXu_O8Ln7tr7J6KLlUYoavk8pAUAkYGHdOJFjjrdzG2-UD8Y_0llN4SDofyKGh8QL2rdYbYc-Ex-lFZqchiuPL64gvd8M2O9MsjsPflqF0HhLDHskF9mvWK4y48g/s320/108_2473.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303473581468918786" /></a><br />Life with a 4 year old is ALWAYS an adventure!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-60241246635327667652009-02-15T18:51:00.000-08:002009-02-15T19:00:21.474-08:00Valentine's Day ..... one of my favorite Holidays!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggvIg5F8elhYIgAPKBuZkuOAraj7YUQQ1-FSELi100L68L6fp6exOhmi_WURf7pTBexvntyQjx35NlUoLEkd54YnJXnsjjPIsx0mF1dOTGqyuACJQNxnhSyHfTgfgp28DKNmWwXHdDWQ/s1600-h/108_2414.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 235px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggvIg5F8elhYIgAPKBuZkuOAraj7YUQQ1-FSELi100L68L6fp6exOhmi_WURf7pTBexvntyQjx35NlUoLEkd54YnJXnsjjPIsx0mF1dOTGqyuACJQNxnhSyHfTgfgp28DKNmWwXHdDWQ/s320/108_2414.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303223894228776818" /></a><br />Happy Valentine's Day!! Valentine's Day is one of my favorite holidays and has such a special meaning behind it for me.... That is the day that we brought Zachary home from the hospital! We adopted him at birth, but he was 3 1/2 months premature and had to remain in the hospital for a couple of months before we could bring him home. It is hard to believe that was 4 years ago! Time surely flies when you have children! He is such a blessing and I think that adoption is one of God's greatest gifts he could give. I feel that he is my Valentine's Gift each and every Valentine's Day! What could be better than a precious child. We spent Valentine's day at a biddy basketball tournament. My husband is coaching the 12 year old All Star team. It is a good thing I love sports because I believe Zach is going to follow right in his daddy's footsteps!! Here is a pic of him in his "basketball uniform" as he calls it!! Ha!<br /><br />Hope y'all all had a wonderful Valentine's Day!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6218132419057143933.post-17367364965520968652009-01-23T07:21:00.000-08:002009-01-23T07:51:03.172-08:00Above all, love each other deeply.... 1Peter 4:18Paul and I have just started reading the book Love Dare. It is a 40 day challenge for you and your spouse to practice unconditional love. I have to say it can be very challenging to complete some of the challenges of the day, but a lot of fun too! The very first day the challenge is not to say anything negative about your spouse. Well... that day let's just say I practically had to tie my tongue down at times, but I did it! We are really having a lot of fun with it. The book is based on the movie Fireproof. We didn't get a chance to see it before it left the theater but our churh is going to be showing it around Valentine's Day. I can't wait to see it! With Valentine's Day right around the corner this would be a fun thing to do with your spouse. I just hope I am able to complete each dare with GRACE!!! <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwsWuB9JKq2zUmc9hqpxacoOpT07RdZ-KAF_P2SQoDfAJ3Zt-xZc3gRXMFvgTUvKBBe4tBVzMx3H7Ev2BI-uT6Q3uJY6avjZbOMUW1Z1wqFhEwI-7JRlktpF2rjHjRNbCZW7lPS2isMA/s1600-h/fireproof.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 130px; height: 174px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwsWuB9JKq2zUmc9hqpxacoOpT07RdZ-KAF_P2SQoDfAJ3Zt-xZc3gRXMFvgTUvKBBe4tBVzMx3H7Ev2BI-uT6Q3uJY6avjZbOMUW1Z1wqFhEwI-7JRlktpF2rjHjRNbCZW7lPS2isMA/s320/fireproof.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294511751416469474" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/52/5A6D6911F73975BBD1B5A405097335E5.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Sandy Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13185018156046113877noreply@blogger.com1
