All of God's creations



These are the pictures of the new landscaping of our yard. I love that we have our own little asian-inspired getaway. It was a lot of hard work but I just think it gives our house such curb appeal! We are not quite finished but I love it. I need a few more flowers in the flower bed on the right, and we've got a little project going on in the back yard too. But I will settle with this for this year. Our next big thing is finishing the big room in the garage. It will be our bedroom, and the best part is I will have a 7X12 walk-in closet. Slowly but surely I am getting my dream home.
Now for the part that I discuss everytime that I'm on here. I've done a lot of soul searching and decided that I am content with my body, and that I will not have the body I had when I was 21. I mean really, I've had 2 kids. The most I can ask for is health, and appreciation for my dimples on my legs. I always said that I wanted dimples, now I've got them and I was trying to get rid of them...hehehe. I think that as long as I really watch portions, and types of food, and get moving...I couldn't ask for more. I love gardening and working in the yard...and I could tell that was burning calories and giving my body a workout- I can feel it this morning! I mean God created me how I am, who am I to degrade His masterpiece! I still need to treat my body like His temple, but without the self-bashing that I have induced lately. So for anybody reading this, just be content with what you have now, otherwise you will never be content with what you get! I love this life and thank God for all the blessings He has given me.

Hey--your garden looks great--love it! That was a lot of work! I don't think there was anything there before so that was a lot of dirt/sod to get rid of--and lots of trips to Walmart-ha!
