THERE ARE NO ORPHANS OF GOD!

I HEARD THIS SONG AT MY BOYFRIENDS UNCLES CEREMONY WHEN HE MADE THE DECISION TO BECOME A DEACON AT HIS BAPTIST CHURCH IN TROUP. A LADY SANG IT AT THE CEREMONY AND IT TOUCHED ME SO MUCH THAT I HAD TO SHARE IT WITH YOU--- THE MESSAGE--- THAT NO MATTER HOW HARD YOUR LIFE AS BEEN OR HOW BAD YOU HAVE TREATED OTHERS AND SINNED AGAINST HIM--- OUR GOD AND FATHER LOVES US NO MATTER WHAT WE DO.....HE MAY BE DISAPPOINTED IN US AT TIMES--- BUT HIS LOVE IS NEVER ENDING!!

I HOPE THIS SONG SENDS THE SAME HEART WARMING MESSAGE TO YOU AS IT HAS FOR ME... PLZ.. STOP... RELAX... AND JUST LISTEN FOR A FEW MOMENTS TO THIS BEAUTIFUL, POWERFUL SONG-- AND REMEMBER THERE ARE NO ORPHANS OF GOD!!

AND PLZ.. FEEL FREE TO PASS IT ALONG AND SHARE WITH OTHERS--- ITS OUR JOB AS CHRISTIANS- DISCIPLES OF CHRIST TO PASS ON HIS WORD! PLZ ENJOY AND GOD BLESS!!

Well... Sacred Spur made it through their 2nd Ranch rodeo with their new team ending in flying colors!! After getting up @ 4am, driving a total of 2 1/2 hours to Texarcana Arkansas from Troup Texas, our boys did very well even with a new team memeber and no practice running on little sleep--- we got a No time in our first event(Sortin') not starting out the day well but we got third in the muggin' and 1st in the pennin-- ending the day in 3rd place! WOO HOO!!! Crossbrand was well represented-all 3 of our teams placed on Sat! I was very proud of my tatertot!! and even as hot as it was it still wasn't as bad as the sand attack at Bar None and im sure the last 2 Ranch rodeos in August will be much worse!!! but with a lot of prayer and team work they got the job done!! YaY Sacred Spur!!!

Well we had a pretty exciting week last week.... sunday 2/15/09 started off with me taking a mean bite to the dust( trip to the floor) falling on the runners for carpet which have little claws all in them and dragging leaving some pretty mean scars im sure--- deep enough for stitches but not wide enough so Im just now getting to where i can wear jeans again...... had a few bumps down the road with my relationship but all is well now!!! good news is--- I DIDN'T LOSE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE! so we're good--- just shows that there will be ups and downs and we just need to hear each other out come to an understanding and see each other through!! no one said it was going to be easy but I promise -- ITS WELL WORTH THE EFFORT!!! I had solo and Ensemble fri after school--- made 2's on both out of a possible lowest score of 5, 1 being the best- But I got a nice surprise there at the end --- my tatertot came up to see me after me having separation withdraws for the past 2 weeks!!! I got my tater bear hug from my hunny bunches of oats and to me-- thats all that mattered!!! Hung with him and his family this weekend had Team Roping practice today after church -- (pics are coming) Sidney got to ride "Red Man" and tater did great with the heading but not so great with he 2 efforts of healing... it was worth a try and will get there but not yet.... Gus man ( taters show goat)is lonely and ready to come in he says "DAAAAD!!! DAAAD!!!" these coldfronts are about to do him in--- hung with Sean and Kat Fri night after S&E and Sean smoked are tails at pool and air hockey--- we start new schedules for the next 2 weeks b4 TAKS -- we are trying out having all 8 of our classes together in 1 day instead of 6 a day block-- personally I wish they'd done it that way ne-ways from the beginning but NOPE! and kids don't have a say in it only the teachers Vote which is soo not kool!! wore my new shirt today with my new replacement jeans for the ones I shredded sun night-- did I mention that my night and shining armor came to my rescue after my fall--( tater rode with his mom in her car to check on me at my grandmas after his kluts of a GF fell over her stupid self while running through the house to get the the phone so I wouldn't miss HIS phone call)--- sounded better the other way and to me... that how it felt--- I tell you what I sure am krazy bout that boy-- shoot he fought hard enough to get me and keep me-- like ta killed me when he tried to leave me in the dust.... said "he must have been out of his mind to wanna give up a thing like me" a thing he said ... hmmmmm... idk about that... but we watched FIREPROOF the other night together with his and mine family and if you haven't seen it I do recommend--- esp. Christians-- GREAT A+ movie!!! but ne-wayz back to what I was sayin -- we got to wrestling around and I beat him up pretty good ---- sat on him after dinner!!! that was bad enough then what do I go and do--- steal his spot on the couch!! GASP! Oh yes I did-- I know .... Im a terrible gf... but at least I was nice enough to scoot over and share the couch afterwards.... he says he s beginning to like the wrestling thing ( I told him he's just sayin that cuz he was winning)well... I think that about it heres some pics of random events that were caught pn film this week--- enjoy more to come asasp!! love ya!!

pics of the stage in the TOYOTA center in Houston where REVOLVE was at 4/14/09-- we were in the dark and far away so I got the best zoomed in pics in the dark I could.

Well Im back from my "REVOLVE" tour weekend!!! me and the girls had a blast!!! we met at CBCC around 4:30pm after school on Friday, February the 13th. We drove straight through and ate in the Woodlands at a seafood restaurant nicer than CHEDDARS.( my meal alone was $23!!!! we got to our motel around midnight and they didn't have are reservations so 14 girls had to sleep in 3 rooms all with 1 queen size bed ONLY!! so we had to wait till 2am to finally get 2 cots in each room.up side we got the motel for FREE!!!! BAD customer SERVICE!!! me and Berlynn shared a cot. we all had to wake up @ 7am sat morning after school and work all day fri. then driving 4 hrs and not getting settled till 2am. But the Revolve was great!! they had 4 sessions with 3 breaks in between. 4 different groups sing and several diffent speakers but it ws an excellent tour!!! we all danced and goofed around and had a a great time!! we left a lil early to avoid traffic. we stopped at this outlet store I had never heard of before called "Sam Moons" and I loved it!!! EVERYTHING WAS SO CHEAP!!! puses we pay between 50 -100 dollars for @ the mall and Baskins were $20!! and they had every piece of jewelry in the world for like $5!!!! and belts like @ CAVENDERS for $25!!! OMG!!!!2then we stopped at this mexican restaurant in Buffalo and ate dinner with the money we didn't use on the rooms. we got to CBCC at 9:30pm sat night and my grandparents brought me home. I rode to church with them this morning cuz momma had to work( did I mention i had flowers-yellow tulips (her fav.) sent to her job for v-day!!! major surprise!!) after church I went to my aunt margarets house and I caught my very 1st cat fish ever!!!! actually my very 1st fish ever--- but I wouldn't touch it we just through them back. I was actually trying to move a bit down the pond side and re-adjust when something started pulling at my rod. I was like wut the heck?! get off!!! them I realized-- duh its a fish!!!! I started yelling like a wild mania with a grin form ear to ear--- I CAUGHT A FISH! I CAUGHT A FISH!!! my friend Harley from church ran over and helped me real it in and he unhooked it for me and tossed it back like id asked him to. I couldn't stand hurting the lil helpless thing.... he was so innocent he as just hungry and plus it was weird since id prob eaten his brother less than an hour before at VAUGHNS. But it was a nice adventure. over all I had a good weekend in. The best part was driving home from Houston with Brittany, Emily, Lacey, Jessica, and I and we talked about boyfriends and first kisses and jamed out! we all just goofed around and got better aquainted
!! We had a blastthe only thing missing was my baby----- I LOVE YOU TATER!!! I hope you had fun and missed me as much as I did you.... HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!
