I never used to like Avocado or even want to try it when I was younger. I looked at it and it never apealed to me. Last year my sister made Avocado Dip for one of her parties.  My sister has this recipe where she mixes Avocado, garlic  and Salsa.. Yummy. I have had it a lot since her party. I never would have thought of even trying it. I have not had any Avocado any other way. Maybe ill try out some of the great recipes that are listed on http://www.theamazingavocado.com/bighit  this microsite will contain personal profile pages for the 8 Avocado League finalists and their dishes!

Did you know that at only 50 calories per ounce (around three slices), and sodium and cholesterol free, they make great additions to everyday salads and sandwiches. With nearly 20 different types of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients in a one ounce serving, avocados make a healthy ingredient in any dish?

 Submit your avocado recipe and you may be featured as an “all-star” recipe.  All voting and recipe posting will take place at TheAmazingAvocado.com/bighit Avocado League participants will be announced on Wednesday, September 1 and public voting for the recipes begins in late September.

They are so excited that I am getting married on their date. I can not wait till its all over with. I am looking for everything for the wedding. I have already got my 4 year old daughters dress on sale at David’s Bridal. I was so excited that I found it so fast. We ordered my ring setting and I got the invites today. It is all coming together very smooth. As I go I will post pictures of things that I get. Here is a picture of my daughter in her dress.

Can you believe I got this dress for only 40.00???

I can not believe its already been a year since Michael Jackson’s Death. I remember my mom telling me how I would be in my Johnny Jump-Up jumping for hours to Thriller.  Everyday that is all that I wanted to do. I loved watching the video also.

I came across a cool website where you can enter your Tribute. You can check that out at http://memories.michaeljackson.com/. A lot of people have wrote about what they are doing and also just little memories of Michael Jackson.

I was so happy to be apart of the FlavorSplash Aquafina Ambassador Program. I loved trying all the flavors that Aquafina had to offer. This is the final week and the flavor of this week was Peach Mango.  In these 6 weeks of doing the FlavorSplash I have been drinking a lot more water. I have cut out all of the soda and teas. I am very proud of myself  for readching my goals.

The Peach Mango flavor was great! I love peaches and this water had a great refreshing taste. My kids love the Peach Mango flavor.  I am also excited to see my kids drink more water then juice or soda.

I would love to be apart of  Ambassador Program in the future.  Thanks for giving me the opportunity to get my health back on track and also trying out all the flavors.

Great job guys!!

This little girl needs all the prayers she can get. I am friends with her mom and it breaks my heart that she is going through this again. Yes again. She just lost her 5 month old daughter TWO months ago to Holoprosencephaly (its a brain disorder).

Last week Jenna & Emmett’s precious 3yr old Hailey Jade became ill with what a Dr passed off as bronchitis, seeing Haileys sypmtoms worsen they took her to urgent care to be given medication and told it was a bad stomach flu. That took a freak turn for the worse when on Sunday May 30th HaileyJade was vomiting nonstop with a fever of 103. Airlifted to Danville Childrens Hospital doctors found she had a rare infection in her spinal cord. They are hoping to prevent the infection from damaging any other vital organs and systems but Hailey is suffering from seizures and has only been given 48hrs and a 5% chance of recovery.

Right now Hailey Jade is still fighting for her life. Please pray for Hailey.

UPDATE 6/2: News this morning is that she has meningitis. it’s an infection in the spinal cord and fluid around the brain. they did a spinal tap and we’re waiting to find out the type & severety. If it’s viral, then a lot of antibiotics could help. We’re praying that it’s viral and not bacterial!!

Update 6/3- Hailey opened her eyes last night and looked at her mom!!

Sad Update: 6/4 Hailey passed away today. She lost her battle with Meningitis.

Well since my birthday is this Friday the 28th I figured I would write about how my “30″ was. I will be turning 31 this Friday. Before I turned 30 all of my friends made a big deal of the big 3-0. I didn’t see a big deal about it, well until I hit mid way. I do have 3 kids, I was just recently divorced from my marriage after 10 yrs of being married. I have been with my boyfriend (well fiance) for a year now. Here are a few things that I am having a hard time with in my 30′s:

-weight gain and trying to get it off
-getting pregnant

I was pregnant back in Sept and had a miscarriage in Oct. Since then we have been trying with no success. I am blaming this on being 30. I do have three kids of my own but my fiance doesn’t have any kids and we would like to have one together. So I’m praying that this month will be it with the fertility meds that I started to take.

Oh the weight gain. I am 20 lbs heavier then I was before I turned 30. Could it be stress? Could it be cause I turned 30? Could it be that I am not trying hard enough to loose the weight? I have no clue. I go to the gym about twice a week. I do a lot of running around on the weekends so I never get a chance to get to the gym like I want to. I do want to buy a tredmil for the house so that I can get a work out in when I can’t get to the gym. I do not eat a lot of junk food.

I just want my body back and until then im blaming it on my big 3-0! Let’s hope 3-1 is a bit better.
