Happiness

Here we are.... Chris and I. This is down by the Red River. Its so pretty down there. We don't match in this picture ( cuz I didnt tell him he was taking one ...LOL) Oops!! My Bad!! Oh well it turned out good anyway... I think we are kinda cute together.. but maybe that's just my opinion. I am happy and I think that's all that counts :)

Still A Kid

I just got my senior pictures back today. We went down by the riverfront to take them, and of course there is water. I am personally a big fan of water; love it, always have. So I played in it just like I did when I was still a kid. I have come to find that even though I am 18, I still like to do some kid things every now and then. It relievs stress when you get to play around a little. Anyway, it was a blast, I love going and playing in the water.

Struggling.......

Wow! I found out tonight that my boyfriend will be leaving for Iraq ( or somewhere overseas) in just a few short weeks. He told me and when I got off the phone, I just sat and cried. I knew that the day would come when he told me that but I was hoping it would be alot later than sooner. I don't know how I am going to handle it, But this I do know that God is good and he wont give me anything I can't handle. So I am going to trust that He will give me the strength that I need. And aways be in prayer for the both of us. I know I will be always praying.

Even A Soldier Cries

There he stands without a sound
He serves his country with pride
Strong as a rock
Tough as a nail
He looks in the mirror, fixes his beret
Hugs his wife, and walks away
To the Sandbox he must go
And the world doesn't know
How he crys in the night
Sitting in the sand
Of that deserted land
Hidden from the world
Is his pain
Even a soldier cries
Everything is alright
We will be OK
I miss you more each day
Words he hears from the one he loves
Tears stream down from his face
Yes, Even a soldier cries
They fight for you and I
The give their lives
Freedom comes when a soldier cries
For his home he sees
The blessed U.S.A
The tear of a soldier
For the love of his country
Yes, Even a soldier cries

I cant help but to smile!!!

So lets see, remember how I talked to my dad and he said Chris had to talk to him again. Well he did, and now he and I are officially dating, which excites me to no end!!!! I think its going to be a really good thing!!!!! He is so good to me, and I try to be good to him. Sometimes though its hard but there is no easy relationship. But I am very excited about the whole thing.

Congrats to Me!!!

Yesterday I finished the bulk of my physics!!!! I was so excited. All I have left to do is finish one more paper and I am completely done with physics. So now I am down to 9 more paces till I graduate!!! YAY ME!!!!!

Letters From Home

I went to go see Chris today before he went to work, he had to work nights today, and when I got to his room to see if he wanted to go drive around he had his ipod playing. He put on the song, Letters From Home. I sat down and began to tear up. I told him that song makes me cry. I was thinking of how I knew he was going to be going overseas and that would be him holding up those letters from home. The mere idea of him leaving still gets to me. I should already be used to it, and I still have time to prepare myself for the day that he does leave. But the fact of the matter is that I don't want him to go over there, its dangerous and people die everyday over there. That makes me want to cry. So as I was holding my face, he sat next to me and held me and said that it would be alright, and he would come home.

Prayer

So I had a God moment this weekend too. I have been having struggles with giving everything to God and trusting that he will take care of everything. And I have been having some issues with that lately, So I was sitting outside my grandmas house praying and just in tears. And I as sat there praying Chris was in the room that I stay in watching tv and he turned it on and it was on some channel, which I dont know which one, and as I sat there crying, "Jesus Take The Wheel" by Carrie Underwood started playing and I just cried more. I thought Wow! What good timing.

What a weekend

Oh my goodness!!! The concert was so awesome!!!! I had a blast, my mom and I were jamin to Toby Mac. It was just so good. And I had a good time at my grandma's house, she makes such good food. I am thinking bout going up there for a week in the summer. It was just fun to get to spend Easter with my family in Dallas. Oh by the way... HAPPY EASTER!!!!

Excitement overwhelmes me!

I am just so excited lately! Tomorrow I am going to get my Easter Dress and on Friday we are going to Dallas to go to Six Flags!!! Thats so exciting to me
