Big Day

Today was a big day in our house!  After a busy day at work I rushed home to get myself ready.  I didn't get to do my 30 minute on the treadmill, but I'll get back to that.  When I got home there was a package for me!  It was my necklace I ordered from Farmgirl Paints, I follow her blog & love her pieces she designs.

I promise to get a better picture of the necklace!  It says surrender on it.  I'm using it to remind myself that I can't plan everything and that God's timing is perfect...so I must surrender all to him.

Tonight was a big for Bud.  If he was eligible to have a make a wish this would be it.  Tonight Bud got to sing the National Anthem at a sporting event.  Unfortunately, the flipcam was not cooperating so I didn't get video.  We have requested that if they are able that UT sends us a DVD of the event, cross your fingers!  Bud has an amazing voice, he is a vocal music minor.  I think the fact that he got to sing for a University of Texas Soccer game made it even more special.  It's awesome when people come up afterwards to tell him how well he did and I love how humble his is about his gifts.

That's my hubby singing (notice the camera man, Bud is famous...kinda)!  And the 2 cadets on the far right are part of Detachment 825 as well!  I'm so proud! :) 

Afterwards we met up with a bunch of the AFROTC people for TGIF.  It's tradition that nearly every Friday a group of people from AFROTC go to eat somewhere or do something together.  It helps build morale and camaraderie.  Bud & I split a pasta dinner which was the perfect size!  While we were there JF & MS invited us to go 2-stepping at a place called the Broken Spoke.  We went and we had an absolute blast.  I can only 2-step for so long before my calves are yelling at me.  But back to not getting to do my 30 minutes on the treadmill....I may be cheating a little bit, but I'm counting my 2-stepping as my workout today.  Technically, I have still successfully completed 10 days of my 21 day challenge!  If you don't think I should consider my dancing as a workout...speak now or forever hold your peace!

At the Broken Spoke!  I dislike the cowboy hat, but Bud loves it so much.  I have to pick my battles, and this one isn't worth it!  I love you Bud!

It's time for bed now, It's been a long week & quite frankly I'm exhausted.  The plan is to sleep in (for me that means 8am) and see how tomorrow pans out, I'll see ya'll tomorrow!  Have a blessed evening!
