100 Posts - OH WOW!!!


Guess what this is my 100th post. I'm excited about that! I started blogging over a year ago at the non-stop begging and pleading of my sister Amelia and have been blogging ever since. I have had my slow times (when I thought I was dead- due to pregnancy) and my months that I posted allllll the time. I decided also that this blog is for me and if no one comments - AWH well because it's like journaling (which I don't do) and so that is important and one day I will Slurp my blog and have it all in a hard copy. I encourage any to blog - It really doesn't take that much time - trust that because I don't have ANY time. Does anybody these days! ? Ok, so I decided a while back that on my 100th post I was going to do a giveaway! THATS RIGHT , A GIVEAWAY! I am going to make the winner something - to be decided soon - and after I find out if it is a gal or a guy. I will use the random number generator to pick the number and you can only enter once. So all you have to do to enter is leave a comment - I wanna know how YOU know ME and if you don't know me - I wanna know why you are reading my blog! Easy enough!!! GAME ON!!!! This should be fun to see if more than 6 people read my blog. Oh and you have until Monday night at midnight to comment. Remember only one entry per person. Love you all and thanks for reading my nonsense !

Smiles and Loves, JEN

OH and just a little pat on the back to myself. For those of you that don't know - about 3 months ago I decided I didn't ever want to see "THAT" pant size again. Good news is that I haven't had sugar for 3 months - yup NONE and it has paid off because I am now 32 pounds thinner. YAHOOOOOOOOO ! for me - Just 30 more to go - I know some of you only weigh 60 pounds but others of us are bigger - more curvy folks!

32 & Just Look At YOU!







Happy Birthday Amelia!
It's been a while since the last ODE to Aim so I thought today was the perfect day!


Miss Amy's my Sister
Scotty is her Mister


She has not one girl but two
and her boys are quite a few.

She lives in Saratoga Springs
And their neighbors treat them like Kings!


She has lots to DO
She's way busier than YOU!


She's a really good friend
A hand SHE WILL lend.


She listens intently
Then hugs you gently


Oh the pictures she takes
they're so good they look fake.


My sister, my friend
I will love you till the end


Happy Birthday Aim
Hope this poem doesn't bring you Shame!

I love you to death Aim - thanks for always being one of my closest friends. I admire you more than you know!
Kisses & Hugs
Jen
now go celebrate "YOU IDGIT!"

All This & The Gospel Too!







A few months ago I heard someone quote an apostle who looked at his family and as he sat down to dinner said: "All This & The Gospel Too." I just loved that quote and I know I've said this before but I'm gonna stich that on a pillow because it's the theme of MY LIFE! This really is how I feel.
Love you all,
Jen
p.s. Isn't it a wonder that babies can sleep in any position at all!
p.p.s. I can't wait for the Family Reunion - BOOYAHHHH!!!
