It's Official!! He did it!!

It is officially official!! My hubby is a college graduate. And not only did he graduate-- he did it in style-- He graduated Magna Cum Laude, and was one of 7 to receive a scholarship pin, which is the highest academic honor at Montreat and means he maintained a certain grade point average (obviously a high one :)) for 6 consecutive semesters. Yes I said one of 7 and there were close to 200 graduates--- how cool is that!!

Payten was the first to notice his name on the program twice for both his honors, and Carter made sure to tell him "I am pwoud of you daddy". And I am extremely PWOUD too!!

Oh and for anyone keeping track-- the turd did beat my GPA.

A Song for You


Even though I can't sing, dance, or play an instrument-- music does something for me, always has. When I exercise, it makes me want to do it longer, move faster. I often hear songs that fit the moment that I am in, almost like I was meant to hear that song. I guess you can say I am a slave to the vibe.....


Recently I heard a song on my Ipod that was perfect for someone special to me.


Tonight I added that song to my blog for her. This song is for a friend who has endured a lot lately and has done it with such strength, grace, and positivity. I've told her more than once she is my Hero--


RD-- I am so proud of your "Can do", "Will win", "Will Beat this" champion attitude.


I know that not all days are easy-- and so that you won't forget, I have added this song for you--and just like the words of this song, "On a day when you feel spent-- you can "Trouble Me".


(p.s should you need the lyrics I have hyperlinked them here)

Looking forward to our eggtomatothrowingcussinggetitoutcryingpunchinghugging(not touching :)) night!!

MUUUUWWAAAHH!!
