Another year has come and gone!

I sit here writing this blog, I cant believe that 2009 is almost over! Wow another year went by so quickly. I can recall several good things that have happened.

One thing our family really enjoyed was our 8 day vacation in California, we went in feb 09 and and spent five of the days at Disneyland. IT was truly a magical experience. We had many good weekends at the Oregon coast, and listening to the waves up near the lighthouse is amazing to say the least! Spending time with very good friends. And girls nights at Portland city grill. Over all this year has been a great time of growth for my family, Paris has turned 8 she is beyond words beautiful, smart, and an actress like myself. Alexa Has turned 3 years old and is in her first year of preschool. Gymnastics preschool Lexie attends two days a week. She can do the cutest star jumps, and tumbling. As for Kon, he is now 23 yrs old and a fabulous hubby and father. He loves the Lord and Accepts that serving other people in life is a plan from God. So we Serve! We work down at the TY drop in center in Portland and help feed the homeless once a month. It has become a rewarding Deed. I am 24, keeping myself busy with work, doing hair on the side, my girls, hubby and my nephew Gabriel. I forgot to mention that my sister had her Angel baby Gabriel Mathew on march 23,09 and he was more then anything we could have wished and hope for in a little boy! Gabriel is so loving and kind with a huge heart for everyone. And last but not least my Best friend Amy Had her precious son in oct of 09. He was a gift to everyone who knows how much Amy wanted to be a mom one day. He came a few weeks early And was born with tons of hair. They named him Michael James. SO this year has been really great, although it flew by to quickly. Cheers to the new year!

Self image told by ME!

I am looking through the eyes of everyone else and going crazy! I am a healthy person. But health to me is not defined by breathing and thinking every moment of everyday about starving myself. Or in other words what I put in my body. I have trained my mind to just know what and what not to have. I will go out with a friend for lunch and not one second feel guilty about what I am having. I look at all these self absorbed people and think, how crazy are you to only worry about self image and weight. Besides its annoying to hear skinny Bitches, excuse me talk about their bodies.

I am number one to tell you I care highly about how I look, not for anyone to judge but for me to feel confident is to look good as well : } I have realized over the years that its not how much I weigh that matters but how healthy and happy I am. Thats the key to happiness for me. I feel better the days I work out, and the days I don't I am still a surviving 24 yr old girl! As for my friends WE ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL IN OUR OWN UNIQUE WAYS, GOD CREATED US NOT TO BE FIGURES FROM TV, but to be our healthy selves.
