I have to admit that I have always been a fan of Europe...my husband (he is half Polish and half Swedish), French food, classical music (especially Beethoven), Italian coffee, Foreign Films, the list could go on. Now I have become mesmerized at the notion that my husband and I might visit next year for our 5 year anniversary.
Now Europe is a big place with lots of cities to choose from. Paris was my initial first choice. Then I looked at Prague, my husband does not want to go to Italy so those cities were out, Barcelona was on the radar, but we finally settled on Vienna!
Why Vienna...why not? It has royal palaces, Cafe's everywhere (I adore coffee), the Spanish Riding School (home of the royal Lippazzaner Stallions), Beethoven spent most of his life in this city, Mozart, Strauss, Museums, The Vienna Boys Choir, Baroque Cathedrals, and the Sachertorte was invinted here!
If you have been to Vienna please give me some feedback.
If you think I should visit another area please let me know where and why?

Late night thoughts
Thought I would make an attempt to update my blog today. I can't sleep so we will see what the brain comes up with as this late hour.
I have made an observation. There are several blogs I read often...the one common theme is that the writers of these blogs all have children. I wonder if I would have more to write about if I had children? I guess it made me a little sad as well...cause you see we have been trying to have children for the last 4 years. God has not blessed us in that area of our lives and we are at peace with it all, but sometimes things still make me sad.
At this point there is nothing anyone can really say...I have read all the books (from christian writers re: infertility), seen doctors, given it to the Lord, taken vacations, relaxed, etc. I truly believe the Lord has closed my womb for a reason. I do have expectant hope though each month that God will create a miracle in me. If you look at the women in the bible that were barren and then gave birth their children went on to do amazing things for God...so my joy comes in knowing that maybe God is preparing the way for a great man or woman of God that I get to be the mom of!
My husband and I have talked about adoption and are open to it. The strange thing to me about it though is the cost...Gladney in Fort Worth ranges from $20,000 to $40,000 depending on the ethnicity of the child. Minority children cost less...can you believe that is even possible...to be honest with you it makes my skin crawl. Society puts value on life based on skin color from the very beginning. We really do not feel led at this time to seek out a child...however if the Lord brought a situation to us that would be another story.
So I guess that is what is on my mind as this late hour. I think I am finally tired.

Where have you been?
Thought this was cool and fun. Create your own by clicking on the link below the map. Guess I am a Western girl. My fave hockey teams are in the NHL Western Conference, Dallas Stars and Detroit Red Wings (how Detroit is West I am not sure).
Of all the places I have visited I have only lived in 2 - Washington State and Texas.
My fave place (s) to visit for vacation.....Washington (western of course, Seattle, Mount Rainier, San Juan Islands, etc,), New York (Manhattan, LOVED IT).
Places I passed though (on the way to or from Texas and Washington) but want to go back to really visit (a vacation maybe)...Oregon, Montana and Northern Idaho.
Places I went as a kid that I would like to go back to...Colorado, Nevada (not Vegas), Arizona, New Mexico.
Place I want to visit again but a different city...California (went to San Fran, would like to check our some other parts, maybe Northern Cali).
I seriously have to work on the East Coast...the North Carolina, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine.
Leave me a comment on why I should visit your favorite or home state and why!

Small Group Night
Tonight our small group from church meets at our home. My husband and I are the leader/facilitators. We have the BEST group ever. It is filled with people that love each other the way God calls us to love one another. The really amazing thing is that this is tangible love. We have seen our group bond in a very short period of time. They have reached out to one another emotionally, financially, spiritually, and physically.
And you know what the really great thing is...we are not a holy huddle. We have three new couples visiting tonight and my prayer is that they feel the love of Christ expressed through each of us. Most importantly, that they will be edified and walk away with something applicable that will glorify God.
So this was really just a shout out to all my HomeTeam homies, love ya so much! And also to my husband who is so committed to our group...thank you for all the time, effort and prayer you put into each person and meeting. I love you most of all!

My new obsession
Well, really an old obsession come alive again. My mom was always taking pictures when I was little. I still remember the day we went to San Antonio (a big deal as we lived 30 miles south in a very small town) and my dad bought her a real camera. She was so excited. When I say a real camera I mean one with an interchangeable, manual focusing lens and a removable flash. I love some of my mom's pictures. One thing I love most is that she is not afraid to grab her camera and shoot anything at anytime. My Mema (grandmother) is the same way...sometimes Mema is too bold. She took photographs at my Grandaddy's funeral last February. Who was to tell her no, it was her husband for crying out loud. It made some people uncomfortable...guess I am just used to it. She even sent me a picture of his headstone once it was placed at his gravesite. She was very proud of how it turned out as she had designed it and commissioned an artist to create it. Just a little background for ya...now back to me...
I love photography. I love journalistic style and portrait photography the most. It is so amazing how pictures can tell a story without a single word. I love photo essays as well, words and photo's together are great too. Annie Leibowitz is an amazingly talented photographer. Some of her subjects and the way she captures them are a bit extreme, but some are beautiful beyond description. Emotion jumps out at you and you feel as if you know something more about her subjects.
The first photograph I took that I was really proud of was of a tree. I was taking a photography class through 4-H (told you I grew up in a small town). They taught us how to make a camera out of an oatmeal container. It would take a single photo. I sat it in a bunch of leaves and positioned it towards a towering Live Oak Tree. It was amazing (to me at least). I have no idea where that pic is now. I am sure stored away at my parent's house.
I have become inspired again. Food & Wine Magazine is having a contest on food photography. Grand prize is a Canon Rebel Digital Camera. That would be so awesome. So they have combined my love of food (cooking & eating) with my new desire to take beautiful pictures. I will let you know how it goes. It is a one time shot (no pun intended) as you can only enter a single photo into the contest. I might upload some of my pictures to get your opinions.
If you know of any good books on photography let me know. My husband does not know this but he will be my first serious portrait subject...oh what he is in for.

School is Out (for two more weeks)
You are probably confused 'cause school just started for most of the districts in our area (DFW). However, my husband is in Bible College at Criswell and it seems to me that college is never out, he has Fall Semester, J-Term, Spring semester, Summer I, Summer II and Summer III. It just so happens that he does not have another class until August 21st. He was off last week at well, three weeks in a row without class, reading, papers to write, stuff to memorize...etc. I know Mark loves school, and I know that he is committed, determined and called to his education. I fully support him in this. Mark also works full time (up to 60 hours a week) at a job that is very mentally challenging, volunteers at church, volunteers with parachurch activities and is a devoted husband and friend. When you add all this up he is constantly on the go. Most weekend he spends any time at home in his office doing school work and studying.
It has been really refreshing for him to have this break. I have loved it too! We have been able to hang out with our friends, watch movies, read (for pleasure), go to bed early, sleep late, just hang out. Next Tuesday we are taking the day off and going to Six Flags. We are gonna ride all the thrill rides and just act like kids (we don't have any so we are still allowed to act like a kid). I am just so blessed that Mark and I will get to spend some time together where the sole purpose is to have fun and act silly. Sometimes I think we take life too seriously. Don't get me wrong, serious is good, maturity is a wonderful thing, but every now and then you need to act like a kid.
So this is my public thank you to God for giving us a few weeks with limited outside commitment so that we can refocus on each other and have some down time mentally and physically.

Praise the Lord for President Bush's Veto today!
I received a proposition from a website I registered on last week to gain information on fertilitiy treatments and options to send a letter to President Bush to tell him to NOT veto the Embryonic Stem Cell Research Bill. Below is the email I sent to them explaining why I SUPPORT the Veto.
In response to your request to take action against President Bush and his veto of the Stem Cell research bill I have to comment. I will NOT send a letter urging the President to NOT veto this bill. In fact, I commend President Bush for taking such a strong stand regarding the sanctity of life. A “five day old fertilized egg” is an embryo. An embryo is a human being. We must continue to fight to educate the public that life, even at the single cell stage, is valuable.
The interesting thing about this entire debate is how everyone who supports this talks about using all these excess “cells” (you must mean babies) or they will simply become medical waste. They talk about how the couple would like some good to come from their “biological tissue” (you must mean unborn children), that it would be used to save lives. Funny thing is that the life they would be saving would be at the expense of the life of their own child. I wonder if you approached one of these couples and asked them to donate their 8 month old baby, or maybe their 5 year old to medical science so that others could live the answer would be “NO” 100 percent of the time. Why do these same women (the ones with 30 excess frozen babies) mourn over the loss of a pregnancy at 4-6 weeks and talk about losing their “baby”, when their actions say that all they really believe is that some biological tissue exited their body?
President Bush has my full support of the Veto of this bill.
You probably wonder how/why I am a registered user of your site. I just joined this last week. My husband and I have been married for almost 3 ½ years and have yet to conceive a child. I registered on your site to gain information. I do not wish to be solicited to support political, moral or ethical views that I do not agree with. God creates life, not man. It is a sin for man to take life. I may be hard pressed to find a Physician who agrees with mine and my husbands view on this subject, but I will not proceed with any procedure that will take life to give life. What would I tell my child if via IVF we discarded 15 of his/her siblings? Would I say “Sweetie, you are so special that we killed 15 of your brothers and sisters just to have you.”? I will never have to wonder about that. I pray for those who have gone down that road and now regret it. Will God forgive them? Yes, if they are repentant of their action/choice. But we must do everything possible to prevent the continuation of this type of killing being promoted as something normal, even noble.
From Psalm 139
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
Please reconsider your stance on this subject and the consequences that will come if we continue down the road of giving little or no value to life that God has created. God gave his son, Jesus Christ to die so that all could have life. Who are we to take it away? And Christ did not remain dead, the grave had no hold on Him. In fulfillment of the scriptures He rose again and lives today. We are not God. His thoughts are higher that our thoughts and His ways are higher than our ways. We cannot play God without dire consequences.

Good Stuff
This has been a great week for me. Yesterday was our 3 year wedding anniversary. My husband, Mark, and I are going to celebrate on Saturday with dinner at The French Room in Dallas. It is a fabulous restaurant where dining is an experience and the service is impeccable. We are really looking forward to our night out.
Mark is currently at a dress rehearsal for a concert he is playing in tomorrow night called 100 Guitars of Praise . It will be at Bedford Methodist Church and I can't wait. It is put on by Master Media, Tom Dooley's ministry.
I had a wonderful dinner at Cowtown Sushi with my friend Stacie this evening, we were celebrating her birthday. The food was great but the company was better. We had so much fun just talking and laughing.

I guess you are used to it by now...
...My long breaks between blogs that is. Life has just been busy. I have been using my new computer more, but not for blogging as you can see. I quick update on the last few weeks.
Work has been crazy. I new legislation change has effected the way we are able to treat patients who were injured on the job. There is now a long and arduous process for preauthorization of physical therapy services. It has added work load to a already full plate at work. We are slowly but surely streamlining the process so that is a positive thing. God had blessed the business I work for over the last year and we are so grateful for that.
My friend and co-worker Tina had her baby girl this week. Her name is Ella MaryLin and she is the most perfect and beautiful thing you have ever seen. Congratulations Patrick and Tina!
The holidays are upon us. Thanksgiving was pretty low key for us. Mark and I went out to dinner at McCormick & Schmick's. We are celebrating Christmas with some great friends and having a few people over for a quiet New Years celebration. I have been shopping online this year and LOVE it. We have to ship all of our gifts anyway so it has been such a breeze. No crowded malls, aching feet, etc. Just sitting at home in my flannel pajamas and shopping away. Tomorrow I will be in the kitchen making goodies for friends and co-workers as well.
I bought a CHI flat iron today from my stylist today and it is just awesome. I have had an old school metal one for years now. This one feels like silk gliding over my hair...Makes my hair feel like silk too. If you use a flat iron this one is so worth the upgrade. It's even pink! By the way, Melissa my stylist is awesome too.
Mark is done with school for a few weeks and then back at it. It has been nice to have him out of his office more.
I will try and post again real soon.

Blueberry-Lemon Banana Bread & New Notebook
Well, it is one o'clock in the morning and this is where my procrastination has gotten me. A few things collided today and my self control was weak. Tomorrow is a baby shower for my good friend Tina that I am co-hosting with two other women. Tonight I helped one of my co-host get her home ready for tomorrow. I had to make banana bread and prep for the quiches I am making in the morning. Well, the bread is still in the oven (25 minutes to go) and the prep work for the quiches will have to wait until tomorrow (I need the oven for that too). How did this come to be you ask, making banana bread at one o'clock in the morning.....
What had happened was...I got my new Notebook delivered today (that my awesome husband got for me, see previous blog for more about him). Yes, my new notebook PC, the one I am using as I sit in my favorite chair in my living room. I could not wait to take it out of the package and hook it up to our wireless network and go. This is what I did when I got home at 8:30 rather than cook banana bread. I sat upstairs with my husband and played with my new toy as he flipped back and forth between hockey and UFC. It was fun cause I was looking up athlete stats and sharing then with him as he watched. So, now you see how the banana bread got pushed aside and why I am going to be so tired tomorrow afternoon. I am already planning a nap before church.
So, not only did we get our wireless up and running but my husband got me this great notebook and I am gonna rock my blog from now on!

My Husband
I just have to say that I am the most blessed girl in the world. My Husband is amazing and he has been extra sweet this week. I got roses, a clean house, we went to see the Star's play, plenty of snuggle time and foot massages...I could go on and on but you might start to get jealous. He is so caring and so committed to our marriage. Mark is also committed 100% to God and to seeking His will for our life. One of his gifts is leadership and he has started several bible studies at his work. He is also a very hard worker as he works 60 hours a week as a Design Engineer at LMCO, goes to school at Criswell Bible College, volunteers at church and still has the time, energy and desire to be a great husband. I LOVE YOU BABY! Here is a pic of us on our wedding day, March 22nd, 2003.

I am Still Alive
Just really busy! Plus, we do not have the wireless internet working at home and it has been cumbersome to get online. I have been super busy at work and have not had time during lunch to post. So, just wanted to let you all know that I was still here. The move went well and we are expecting our new dining room table and chairs to be delivered this week. So...You all will be getting a dinner invite soon 'cause you know we love to cook! We have not settled in completely but are well on our way. I hope we get the internet thing fixed this week, I know it is driving Mark as crazy as it is driving me :-)

Furniture?? Movers??
Okay, so we are scheduled to close on our home on the 23rd. I am packing as we speak. Anyone have a moving company they would recommend? I have a couples of quotes out now but have not nailed anything down. If you have moved recently and were pleased with your movers leave a comment on my blog. Also, we are looking for kitchen & dining room furniture (dark wood). If you have some to sell send me a pic. If you have a fave store send me the link or name. I am thinking of just going to IKEA. Found a couple of things I liked at Rooms to Go and The Room Store as well. We are trying to stay within a budget because we are paying cash for everything (by choice). I found a great table at Drexel-Heritage but do not want to pay $420 a piece for the 10 chairs to go around it (you have got to be kidding me). Oh, by the way we need a dining table that seats minimum of eight, preferably 10 (we love to entertain/cook for our friends). Here are a couple of pics of my kitchen nook and dining room (the rooms I am trying to fill).

God Help Them
Father God please be with the people of America that have been devastated by hurricane Katrina. Father, comfort those who have lost much including loved ones. Father help those who are stranded to find a way out to safety. Most of all give them the peace that can only come though your son Jesus in this that is probably the most difficult and tragic moment in their lives. Be with those that are there to help in the rescue and relief efforts. Bind us all together as a nation to reach out to our brothers and sisters in any way we can. In Jesus name, Amen.

A Lot Going On
Wow, it has been over a week since I posted. Well a lot has been going on as we are in the process of buying a new home (we live in an apartment now). It is exciting and stressful at the same time. We are moving to Keller. Which is kind of funny...you see we have said we would not move to Keller. God obviously had other plans (don't ever tell God what you will and will not do). It really makes perfect sense, we can get much more house for our dollar, it is closer to my husband's job, tons of people we know live out there including some of our closest friends, the list could go on. I am really excited as our house is too cute! Here is a pic!

Just Do It...Live Strong...
...I could go on and on with slogans and mantras, but alas I am just going to do it! Last Friday was the kick off to my new work out regimen. My husband has really inspired me as he is training for a sprint triathalon in September. I just pray that God will give me the discipline, strength and endurance to stick with it. That is always my problem. I ran 3 miles on Friday, ran 3 miles on Monday and biked 15 miles last night. I run the front office for Riata Therapy Specialists so my friend Tina, who is a MPT, OCS, is going to teach me a core body routine on the swiss ball. I will keep you updated on my progress. Posting about it will really help with the accountability part of it. I have no excuse as I have plenty of time to work out along with a great gym, Lifetime Fitness.
