A Story To Tell!!!





Me and Kiplin  looking at the oldest Mason, as he take our picture.
Kip is too cute!!!

 I work as a Nanny and I teach two little boys. The oldest is seven and the youngest is three. They are a joy to be around. I take pictures of them from time to time, because just like teaching, I also love taking pictures. Well, today  I decided I would take some pictures of the boys. The oldest wanted to take pictures of me after I took his, he did  really good. I just did a little editing and added some soft touches to the photo's. I just wanted to share his work.

My singles group at the Aquarium in Atlanta Georgia



lol..this otter was too cute!!


What a great day this was to get out. I had a great time at the Aquarium with my singles group and looking at God's creations, it really just  had me reflecting on how amazing  God is. I was so nervous about going inside the tanks. My fear of water is so crazy and I had to remind myself that God hasn't given me a spirit of fear. I still couldn't actally tackle that fear, so I went into the biggest tank there was at the Aquarium and I was still nervous, but I did it. I can't wait until our next outing. Here are some pictures I wanted to share!!

Getting In Shape With God

It's not good to be overweight at all for heath reasons. Living for God and doing the things that he is calling you to do, you need to be not only in shape in the physical, but also in shape in the word. I have been dealing with my weight every since I was a kid and I have tried many diets. I learned that Diet's are not what I need; I need to get more in tune with what God will have me to do, to get in the shape that he needs me to be in. I am setting a goal weight and praying that God will renew my mind during this process because to me getting weight off is discipline and total control of the flesh. I am praying that God will help me start telling my flesh no and when it gets to hard, I pray that he will step in and take charge

So I have been in a routine of walking while taking God alone the way and it feels great.  I have been at it for about three weeks now. I even did a little jogging along the way, gotta start out slow...lol. Here is a picture of me at my biggest weight. I will keep updating as I down in size. Below is a picture of me at my biggest.
I can do all things through Christ Jesus who gives me strength...Philippians 4:13

My Chuch High Impact Summer !!!

  During the summer time my church doesn't do vacation bible school any more for the kids. We have taken it to the communities around our town. We go into different communities and minister to kids as well as thier parents. We do bible studies, games, skits and many other activites. This summer was really great and it's a blessing to bless alot of these kids, because  some of them never get to really leave their community unless it's church or school and it's a blessing to bless them. Some of these kids also attend our church on wednesday nights. The ones that comes on Wednesdays on a regular , we took them different places out of our county. This was my first summer really getting involved in it all and I loved it. Here is some of the fun below.

My group I had once we split up, the girls decided to name our group "The Angels" and they loved that name.

I also attended events with the preschoolers and it was very fun to hangout with them because the little ones loves to explore more and enjoy themselves no matter what. I attended only two events with them. The Coca Cola Space Science Center. This was a very intresting place for science lovers. I went to the airport with them as well in Thomaston Georgia. It was great looking and learning about the airplanes. The kids really enjoyed sitting in the pilot seat of one the planes that our tour guide build himself. They got to see sky divers and that really excited them, I was so taking by the skydivers I have decided on my 30rd birthday to do it, and yes I am praying about it...lol. Here are some pictures of the fun we had.
