Picnic in the Living Room

It's so nice to have friends home for the holidays!! I mean it's so nice to have Huguette home for the holiday's...since she is really the only close friend that lives so far away!!! Anyhow tonight my friends and I decided to have a potluck dinner and catch a movie after!!! Our potluck dinner or should I say picnic...because that's what it turned into took place on my living room floor. Why did we eat on the floor with a perfectly good table only a few feet away? I have no idea, I guess that's just how we do things. Nonetheless I loved our little picnic and how cozy we were sitting together on the floor. I love girls nights, we just get so silly, laughing and talking about God knows what. I can't wait for our next dinner and a movie...oh and if you haven't see "It's Complicated" go see it for a good laugh!!!

Sofia's Baptism

Let me just say that this little lady is one very LOVED little lady! Today is important day in little Sofia's life, today her Parents, Godparents, Grandparents, Family & Friends presented her before God. Today Sofia got baptized! Baptism is the first step towards discipleship, and I pray that she always seek the will of God! Thankfully she has an amazing family to guide her along the way!

Touchdown Tuesday - Week 15

Whoo-hoo the bad performance games in December is now over!!!! The Dallas Cowboys beat the undefeated Saints 24 to 17 in Saturday's game. I must say if there is anyone I see in the Superbowl its the Saints!!!! I have been saying it since the beginning of the football season! That's a team and city/state that really wants it!!! I feel bad for them that there undefeated record is no longer but I still believe in my BOYS!!!!

Catch him if you can

A Relevant Christmas

I love Christmas!!! What I love most about Christmas is all the holiday parties that take place in the month of December and how there is always an excuse for people to gather!!! I love how someone will always volunteer to dress up as Santa for the kids, or that person who will offer there home or those who cook and bake for the masses, oh and how can I forget the decorations. Who doesn't love Christmas decorations? It just seems to me that people are most cheerful around Christmas time; except for the occasional scrooge and we know who they are. Heck they know who they are!!! Speaking of parties I have to say that this year's Relevant Christmas Party (my church) has been the best one I have been to yet!!! The Collazo family did a great job dressing up as Mr. and Mrs. Clause along with their Elves, they are such a great family!!! May God bless them always!!! Our leaders did a phenomenal job with the food, games, decorations, portraits, and the list goes. I can't forget how thankful we are to IBB for allowing us to use there facilities. They bless us so we in turn can bless others!!!

Here are just a few pictures of our gathering!

The Collazo Family

They were so gracious to take pictures with everyone, in order to have a wonderful holiday picture to take home!

Touchdown Tuesday - Week 14

I am tired of hearing all this smack about the Cowboys and there performance in the December games!!! Ugh!!! I guess there is some truth to it because the San Diego Chargers beat the Boys 20 to 17. i am hoping that by the end of the month they will prove everyone wrong!!! Go Cowboys!!!

No pics again this week...I know I'm slacking!!!

Annual COH Toy Drive 2009

For the past several years I have participated in the COH Toy Drive, it is one of my favorite events to attend and participate in during the holiday season. This year a total of eleven local elementary schools participated and over 335 children received toys, which were donated by city employees. What I love most about this event is seeing the excitement and innocence on the children's faces as they see Santa and Mrs. Clause come into the park on Police Motorcycles units. I love how they cheer for Santa to appear... :children chanting: " Santa... Santa ...Santa" and when he finally appears there is nothing but jubilation in the air!!!! Finally I love seeing them tear apart the wrapping paper to see what gift is awaiting them!!! Christmas is such a great time and I hope that people do not get so caught up in getting that they forget to give. I believe you get so much more when you give!!

Let's Talk Ornaments!

This year I decided to participate in the Nestie Holiday Ornament Exchange with the girls from TheNest. I have participated in other gift exchanges or secret Santa's before but never in one specifically dealing with exchanging ornaments! When the girls were beginning to put everything together I wondered to myself how on earth are we going to do a gift exchange over the Internet. I figured we would meet in someone house or something. I apparently was not really using my noggin!!! Hello!!! Anyhow Johanna did a wonderful job putting this whole thing together on www.elfster.com (very cute website to do gift exchanges), and I am please to say I received a very adorable ornaments of t two penguins kissing ornament from Virginia!!! Thank you so much Virginia I love it! I also want to congratulate you on your new baby as well!!!

My Husband and my mother were looking at me as if I had three heads when I noticed that I had received this package. I was jumping up and down like a little girl with so much excitement because I knew exactly what is was.

This is the Ornament that was inside the package and what was sent to me by Virginia...cute huh!!!

Speaking of ornaments here are a few others that either have some sort meaning or has been gifted to me by a friend or family.

My husband gifted me this ornament back when we were dating on our First Christmas together! He also gave it to me with a promise ring taped to the bottom of the umbrella and sticker on the boys foot indicating to look under it. I laugh looking back at that now!! Time as flown by.

This one my friend Ingrid gave me when Fernando and I got engaged! I love Ingrid she is always so thoughtful and thinking of others!!! I love you my friend!!!

I am hoping to get this one as our first married Christmas together!!!

Touchdown Tuesday - Week 12

It's official I am completely out of the playoffs, but if I win this week I knock Ian out of his chance into the playoffs. Bwahahah!!! I know he is going to be praying that I keep up this horrible streak I have had in fantasy this year. I can not believe that out of the three years I have been playing fantasy football the year I decided to write about it is the year I fail miserably, this is the first year that I do not even get a fighting chance. Oh well better luck next year I guess...now it's going to be interesting to see who gets knocked out! On another note can someone explain to me what was wrong with Brady in Monday nights game? I felt so sorry for him as he stood on the sidelines with his frustrated face. Ugh, thanks for only getting me 4 points!

Here is my match up for week 12

Congrats to my husband on his win!

Another win for my boy's this week! They beat the Oakland Raiders 24-7 this past Thanksgiving Thursday. Out of all the games my boys play Thanksgiving game has to be my favorite one to watch outside of the Super Bowl of course. I love the Thanksgiving game because of the half time show, the crowds excitement due to the holiday, and because I watch it with my father who is the person responsible for making me a Cowboys fan. I just enjoy the afternoon spent with family and the excess amount of food. I actually fell asleep watching this game, I guess it was all the food. Anyhow I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday!
