About Me Post

Just going to have some fun and share 10 things about me.  I have been getting alot more traffic lately, so just want to say Hi, Welcome, and here are a few things to get to know me!

1.  The most obvious, I'm a mom to two beautiful kiddos.  They might not know it, but God pretty much uses them to control my life:). They teach me about being selfless, and I try to teach them the same.  They hold my heart.  

2.  I have two dogs, checkers and B.  Checkers is a shih-tzu, and quit a bit older than B( I think he is about 9?). I call him my grumpy old man dog.  Cuz he really reminds me of the man from UP.  B is only 7 months and has energy to spare.  She is a Labrador bullie.  Checkers definitely rules the roost when it comes to dogs  even though B is 4 times his size:)

3.  I love to cook, and I love food.   I cook 3 meals a day and prepare snacks for the kids.  I really enjoy experimenting and kinda making up my own recipes.  I rarely open up a cook book.   I guess my love of food comes out in my cooking.  So I say I make all my food with love, but it's not love for anyone....more like love for the food.  

4. I am really working hard at maintaining a healthy lifestyle.  This kinda goes with #3.  But most of the food I make is made with organic whole ingredients.  And I only cook with olive or coconut oil.   I also hit the gym every day 6 days a week.  Rain or shine... But not when I'm sick.  That's part of being healthy. Allow your body to heal.

5.  Speaking of healing, that's been on my mind alot this year.  I like to put it this way: this is the year for healing, to let go of past hurts, and forgive.  The year I want to let God use me in great ways as a whole person.  

6.  I live in a camper.  That's right.  I live in a 35 foot bumper pull with my two kids, two dogs and dear hubs.  And surprisingly we all fit.  Due to my husband's job, we live in a camper and get the opertunity to travel all over the place..  This obviously is not a permanent gig, but it's what we plan to do untill Danny needs to start school.

7.  Thanks to my hubby's great job aka Gods great provision, I pretty much drive my dream car.  A 2013 Chevy equinox.   I love it, and feel really blessed to ride in style.  :).  

8.  Our home is bilingual.  Being has my husband is from Mexico, and he is bilingual, I want my kids to be the same.  I want to to understand both and speak both.  Some of their relatives don't speak any English and I want them to be able to communicat with them and any other Spanish speaking person out there.   So as I learn the language, I teach my kids ad well.

9.  I love being outdoors. And one very active.  I don'tlike sitting around.

10.  It's my dream to be a social worker, and help find good homes for all the children in foster care.  I hear heart breaking abuse stories on the news every day, and if a child is truly in danger, I want to find him or her a good home where they can grow, and learn how to be an adult.
