Insecurity is associated with chronic self-consciousness, along with a chronic lack of confidence in ourselves and anxiety about our relationships. The insecure person also harbors unrealistic expectations about love and relationships. The insecure person creates a situation in which being disappointed and hurt in relationships is almost inevitable. Ironically, although insecure people are easily and frequently hurt, they are usually unaware of how they are accomplices in creating their own misery.<br /></div><br /><div>(Beth Moore: So Long Insecurity)<br /></div><br /><div>"To find yourself, your true secure self, you must loose yourself in something larger. God shows us that giving, rather than getting, is the means to receiving."<br /></div><div>My prayer:<br />Why are we so proud and foolish? We don't listen until we're faced with disaster, and then we come crying to you, wanting you to fix us. Help me to to accept these changes and not be so jealous and needy. Help me to know in my heart you are sufficient. Help me REST in you."</div><br /><div>As I was reading this book by Beth Moore, I was realizing how she was writing about <strong>ME</strong>! It helps to see right in front of you, how you tend to be. My prayer is that God reveals to me and all the other women who struggle with such insecurities, that <strong>HE IS SUFFICIENT</strong> and <strong>HE MADE US PERFECTLY!</strong></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzJ1FD1u7ckgdbRkQ_WN2IFYT70AW33EtrNkqTPpsqw3ZF3dx1dJj-kSNON330dkaiu3-I4h-mFltR-MUoVtw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzqV96roWEZYJOOobm_0eoYkLG7u8qOQrFhZ4xE3VtvTx1Au3M6_VIFrFnPb1AidYTOuRkaFOoKnzOPgPwhcw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-28856251619287828992011-01-22T16:28:00.000-08:002011-01-26T18:08:01.336-08:00SNOW 2011...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkg34AsMHWpDwM_3APXznkAejq5wlOpDMmVEjzLs6O3HaQ8i8x5eA2C6vW-FRrYj6eBUQ6GJ53L-66lWa3a6JDdYglHYGDFeKMb4Ol1PY2KSnkv-KCqk5HQoVb2-NaydXs5tuFT-YRmtc/s1600/IMG_0633.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566679490047644770" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkg34AsMHWpDwM_3APXznkAejq5wlOpDMmVEjzLs6O3HaQ8i8x5eA2C6vW-FRrYj6eBUQ6GJ53L-66lWa3a6JDdYglHYGDFeKMb4Ol1PY2KSnkv-KCqk5HQoVb2-NaydXs5tuFT-YRmtc/s320/IMG_0633.JPG" /></a> Hanging out with papa.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvOKv1XpBb1eJIQWx-aclvzOWjyFJdrRWCLgBkgDJ28aqdQ1JnPq-E8nxaAPFpIKNM8H-wi211vvc1qopavR8OxvH4KdzU6RgBLAeKObFsyspQEmlWbqtM_ovdBhdk4Gs_D388-kKYXKs/s1600/IMG_0631.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566679483452737234" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvOKv1XpBb1eJIQWx-aclvzOWjyFJdrRWCLgBkgDJ28aqdQ1JnPq-E8nxaAPFpIKNM8H-wi211vvc1qopavR8OxvH4KdzU6RgBLAeKObFsyspQEmlWbqtM_ovdBhdk4Gs_D388-kKYXKs/s320/IMG_0631.JPG" /></a> "Testing" papa's birthday cake!<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS9LLKv8gSYEHFBKk8MWVeH8EazXCGT7rfcg0PA4ptF_wNgGG1cE5UaV4yRoW5aKLjGTRscgHmpZPhvBGywWePJMoYyvfeNjgLrw1PhIS8DqW-ds7kDpcg6NpExw3rkfiWb1j4KB4RCpQ/s1600/IMG_0623.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566678356437486114" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS9LLKv8gSYEHFBKk8MWVeH8EazXCGT7rfcg0PA4ptF_wNgGG1cE5UaV4yRoW5aKLjGTRscgHmpZPhvBGywWePJMoYyvfeNjgLrw1PhIS8DqW-ds7kDpcg6NpExw3rkfiWb1j4KB4RCpQ/s320/IMG_0623.JPG" /></a> Mom insisted on taking a picture of the heels!

Her heart is secure, she will have no fear; in the end she will look in triumph on her foes." ****God will work all things-no matter how difficult or devastating-out to her advantage. It may hurt in the beginning, but its going to be beautiful "in the end." The bible says "he", so I just added "she".<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiglt9iuA6XUsdk_0xgOEqN6SpgsphfFMxEccA_5PG6AWapKCeS5FpP0FRq03drlDEu-E6kgBOxBH5xsoelRym4_M4WJUJLAshrR25h-1wJiE9IOuvRHp_781Dqrit-bvefR6LuXp-fRQ4/s1600/IMG_4964.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565172808504493378" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiglt9iuA6XUsdk_0xgOEqN6SpgsphfFMxEccA_5PG6AWapKCeS5FpP0FRq03drlDEu-E6kgBOxBH5xsoelRym4_M4WJUJLAshrR25h-1wJiE9IOuvRHp_781Dqrit-bvefR6LuXp-fRQ4/s400/IMG_4964.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi78vRuIKHoY39K3Se4u2lHJ8FHBjptiqlWJerwAHpVJHx4_Wf9KBAo9PyeNDI_YId0VaCdM7NsZ_RGOCjiXGzABpDqEh83OoGZ3QKVxCdQksHaADeJ_Hpgkr2E0ELDgpXb4EM9R2drVag/s1600/IMG_4959.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 400px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565172805191724626" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi78vRuIKHoY39K3Se4u2lHJ8FHBjptiqlWJerwAHpVJHx4_Wf9KBAo9PyeNDI_YId0VaCdM7NsZ_RGOCjiXGzABpDqEh83OoGZ3QKVxCdQksHaADeJ_Hpgkr2E0ELDgpXb4EM9R2drVag/s400/IMG_4959.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></p><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-13043805225919857722010-12-25T17:48:00.000-08:002010-12-26T03:41:22.773-08:00Christmas/Snow 2010<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS-Tywy5r-LsaOsYw-kI8k3bG5G6HxoOkX8GeW8RKgk4RxQARTcr952AY1l6CTiyEYJ8g9foGFUN2JR3xLOtSYlrNBoJEjEIl6zz7hRrXkO33DHmZindf71LoVZG8kAOzCx_KYHcZRAe8/s1600/IMG_4927.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 300px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5554807672168677714" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS-Tywy5r-LsaOsYw-kI8k3bG5G6HxoOkX8GeW8RKgk4RxQARTcr952AY1l6CTiyEYJ8g9foGFUN2JR3xLOtSYlrNBoJEjEIl6zz7hRrXkO33DHmZindf71LoVZG8kAOzCx_KYHcZRAe8/s400/IMG_4927.JPG" /></a> Kaley had a wonderful Christmas this year! She was sooooo into santa that it made me get excited for her. After opening her presents Christmas morning, she came to me and said, "I want to hug Santa." She couldn't believe he came through the chimney with all her presents and ate all her cookies! I think I was on the verge of tears ALL day for seeing how excited and how grateful she was!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFQBEkg7DOeN6BMrrV1VN2yu2fea0NPdQ0V4_YThYa1luETUt8RJ2j-Nx85Xi44xIt71IwdskAcEBz5eww6y_r5iKhT5oIowcNTYVBjLFnbp4Y09JneJw9nAx0draizj_6GCSmxEkoh5A/s1600/IMG_4924.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px;

On halloween night, we went on a hayride through a local neighborhood and had a blast! Our sweet friends invited us along and we absolutely LOVED it! It's so fun to watch our children grow up and enjoy life together. I think us parents got more enjoyment watching them have fun than anything else. I was going to share the hayride pictures, but I am having difficulty uploading them!!! I need my friend Dez to help a sista out!!!!<br /><div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq7cvisHJ6EJtTlnUZLaiwtB8dRn3uFMjEIOT9foMryFD3Nvum2tZ9Bo-yb2RZmh41WkijlspXl_jju0nSw4INqmLCs9jC6XEDfzQtWvY1MdP3bdB-M3GcH1W0snFNdUHXtLBhLo57DeI/s1600/IMG_4725.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535000118173043762" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq7cvisHJ6EJtTlnUZLaiwtB8dRn3uFMjEIOT9foMryFD3Nvum2tZ9Bo-yb2RZmh41WkijlspXl_jju0nSw4INqmLCs9jC6XEDfzQtWvY1MdP3bdB-M3GcH1W0snFNdUHXtLBhLo57DeI/s320/IMG_4725.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYD4Fe8uh1Z2MtDuemiDmSfeIqSUe3KAdw1KEHO63-V6mlXGTmlAMmo6YcxLkNcg-Gpj04IIgK6BLszHJBBnXKcRerVx0ewGxDHJwArj_aeOOvOIxd984du3n-Ugkqpy2x9DN1-deINhU/s1600/IMG_4722.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535000115781924386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYD4Fe8uh1Z2MtDuemiDmSfeIqSUe3KAdw1KEHO63-V6mlXGTmlAMmo6YcxLkNcg-Gpj04IIgK6BLszHJBBnXKcRerVx0ewGxDHJwArj_aeOOvOIxd984du3n-Ugkqpy2x9DN1-deINhU/s320/IMG_4722.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEG7w11qpi0Y86HAf4TLX4ROdXPmeRHnN_Qw_etHKxw3PbdM-btIaaJQeFDWjXrtn_IqlR0PWMLAhO_yfbGAmNlBNzargO1miAaFyUsgOSddOJR5zDIYCQB2T0BBhnHyJFaecNSY4DO8M/s1600/IMG_4718.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534998993493654626" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEG7w11qpi0Y86HAf4TLX4ROdXPmeRHnN_Qw_etHKxw3PbdM-btIaaJQeFDWjXrtn_IqlR0PWMLAhO_yfbGAmNlBNzargO1miAaFyUsgOSddOJR5zDIYCQB2T0BBhnHyJFaecNSY4DO8M/s320/IMG_4718.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjftFmmvpMVoA6CIUA5dHTOH2fXXEbRaZAQfh6nKCHBztIC4mY166ikA55jkhH4BjDX836Wie2HuboahDBZOD37s8Ho_csu9UZRTOFIugIIGVmdjjpMfBgYqskwYfoAZzewhmkhfT3nU2Y/s1600/IMG_4705.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534998984721010690" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjftFmmvpMVoA6CIUA5dHTOH2fXXEbRaZAQfh6nKCHBztIC4mY166ikA55jkhH4BjDX836Wie2HuboahDBZOD37s8Ho_csu9UZRTOFIugIIGVmdjjpMfBgYqskwYfoAZzewhmkhfT3nU2Y/s320/IMG_4705.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtyLHImD3oXOHRfmNrlDiPLUS0McCo3y8lRatrCbva9vdhNMgN-3CertlrCzBcHu1gRTgQpxwYLzemN2MCZwlkX6zCaBlv2nmBaqehJQ9qYcrX__JRBpelTGI5hAMRH-Bp9nYBPU78b8w/s1600/IMG_4699.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534998972076414658" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtyLHImD3oXOHRfmNrlDiPLUS0McCo3y8lRatrCbva9vdhNMgN-3CertlrCzBcHu1gRTgQpxwYLzemN2MCZwlkX6zCaBlv2nmBaqehJQ9qYcrX__JRBpelTGI5hAMRH-Bp9nYBPU78b8w/s320/IMG_4699.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgprZ2lE206XJDwWm7cJFRhJMLzoc3wxHEqvURnlp2pr0fdsk7zOSIdAhugvEXE4BoprILzM6vodQZG6YAEdvttkZ5rh7y31x3INReIZk31iJKHXmmM7yAXRDj2AkiP670k8oHUF6EaGwA/s1600/IMG_4698.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534998960242816834" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgprZ2lE206XJDwWm7cJFRhJMLzoc3wxHEqvURnlp2pr0fdsk7zOSIdAhugvEXE4BoprILzM6vodQZG6YAEdvttkZ5rh7y31x3INReIZk31iJKHXmmM7yAXRDj2AkiP670k8oHUF6EaGwA/s320/IMG_4698.JPG" /></a> <div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXZI7zeUO4UiG56ulAagOBwH-fNOXjvEi-CCCMMwY87WxYPzoPUC2pZFUabi9nJSBb0SW_uT8MyOhU9KIAcoH1lnxKAwJjCTJ-CwuZ1wL9oWwQFTW97SnS5mNAAZKtAfFjcSTCM66-QV4/s1600/IMG_4697.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5534998945706656610" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXZI7zeUO4UiG56ulAagOBwH-fNOXjvEi-CCCMMwY87WxYPzoPUC2pZFUabi9nJSBb0SW_uT8MyOhU9KIAcoH1lnxKAwJjCTJ-CwuZ1wL9oWwQFTW97SnS5mNAAZKtAfFjcSTCM66-QV4/s320/IMG_4697.JPG" /></a> "God created mankind to live in a love relationship with Him and to reflect His character.

How Long?"Through waiting, God wants to open your nearsighted eyes to the vivid depths of His immense character. He invites you to nestle in the assurance that He is loving, faithful, all-powerful and trustworthy. He wants us to consider Him punctual and not a latecomer. Even if you never see God show up in the way you hoped, are you going to refuse to buckle or bend to defeat and despair? How do we keep holding out hope in God when we feel certain He's detained in some celestial gridlock? In waiting, we may not see the final outcome of our prayers and persistence, but deep within the caverns of our soul, God is gently tapping. While we pace and sweat it out, nervous and impatient for God to intervene, He longs for you to rest in His love, His compassion and peace. BUT you can rest easy as you wait. God will always weave together good from your dangling shreds of disappointment and weariness-even if, you can't see the lustrous beauty of the tapestry."

It may be simple and painless, or it may be one of the most excruciating things you ever experience. Difficulty does not mean disaster. Heavy winds and raging seas may mean your right on target. Celebrate the fact that you can sometimes "run aground" on the island of God's will for your life. (Like Paul being shipwrecked) Perhaps He couldn't get you to your destination any other way.</div><div> </div><div>God always has a destination in mind when He delivers. (Malta) A place where once you have been faithful to who He is, He will show you what He can do. The waters may be rough and we may have to toss a few things overboard to keep from sinking but if we believe, God provides deliverance even in the midst of plan B.<br /><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4o1wZhZ5HB8zd3g6ppUZqdT8pZAmqWmTFngd_jp71X6LiHHo_edUdMQ8k7uVWygXZt6KyOnnLYWJ1QRplYziJXLp2mT0ryeiemFGsfIiW7KpwlXeKLk-xEDSqbRJKZvy66ybJ27PYqtI/s1600/IMG_4076.JPG"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitgDDlQc_sAm7QTwT9DzABCNPEyLso-eS-u6fjI0q6hxN0oMfklqbkSg0v2OkQLw4Pb2tRO-yNSS7mg11C5WKbbSpsWbvKThvTFBnBqVn8LDT3rf1b82BfY2o73tAjmHWSQ4qdAJh-OCc/s1600/IMG_4075.JPG"></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-70006922589994834692010-04-06T03:59:00.000-07:002010-04-08T03:56:44.734-07:00Random thoughts/picturesWe had a really nice Easter.

As I said before, that has never been easy for me, however, He has sort of forced it upon me and I'm forever grateful for that. I have had some really sad days the last few months and feeling life is impossible. But whether it be through a conversation with a friend or just something I read, I find hope. Hope is a good thing.</div><br /><div><strong>God will take you as far as you want to go, as fast as you want to go. How far...how fast...do you want to move toward becoming the woman of your dreams? (Elizabeth George)</strong> How true is that? God is just waiting on you.</div><br /><div>My favorite is <strong>"God does not give us overcoming life: He gives us life as we overcome.

The last time I blogged was the day of the competition and I was waiting on the results. Well, lets just say I didn't do so well! But thats ok, there was some tough competition there. The competing season is over for now and I feel like this year I was just getting my feet wet. I had a blast competing and met some awesome girls. I look back on the competition pictures from this year and it is hard to believe I actually did it. I loved every second of it and can't wait for next year.<br />As far as life in general, I have taken a step back and just letting God be in control. Isn't it funny how you wake up one day and find yourself calling the shots, controling everything and making every minute of the day about you and your wants and desires? I have learned many lessons this year, both good and bad, and I am ready to let go. I am ready to sit back and let God be in control. He has been faithful to me this year and I am so gracious for his love and patience for me. I know I have put Him on the back burner for way too long. It is very easy for me to want to take all matters in my own hands and not just let God be in every situation. Something I have discovered this year about myself, is that it is very tiring to try to do it all yourself!!!<br />This year has been bittersweet for me. I have had an awesome year in training anf being in the best shape of my life. I have felt more confident in myself than ever before. However, it has been a year to do much self-evaluation and learn some really tough lessons. Ultimately, the lesson of just letting go and let God be in the driver seat is the biggest and the toughest battle I have had this year. That is not a very easy task for me to do. Well, it used to not be easy, I am more than happy to let go today. Isn't it funny how God molds your heart and mind to what He wants for you.Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-15588652866847137312009-11-07T10:26:00.000-08:002010-02-05T04:56:35.696-08:00WHOO HOO Round 1 is over...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiv61DunyYfCo6Cv5bbTt2KdKvEjSjuDAJnwB7MOT0jjjBDdB7orY7YbcmRIekjn5JAZN2Z8HXLBGxKb4sDcjzXA0W5n_tORQAMmg4ZA6vsUZZ12BUqsIViaTY2cFTfx_d5WpQT0adFhuQ/s1600-h/IMG_3483.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401435072268650802" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiv61DunyYfCo6Cv5bbTt2KdKvEjSjuDAJnwB7MOT0jjjBDdB7orY7YbcmRIekjn5JAZN2Z8HXLBGxKb4sDcjzXA0W5n_tORQAMmg4ZA6vsUZZ12BUqsIViaTY2cFTfx_d5WpQT0adFhuQ/s320/IMG_3483.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjILhnUvbLLzrCH2XZRxfnfDQArHXet9PconH78X-x5xnEDmlVaWkBPyi00PGn5VZUrbE4MCZK3Nz487PMEJ-OJvnKA79GpqxBnEElNaF1zn6kVohoOG9mgeooUg2U_BZy3eLd7YmdIrQA/s1600-h/IMG_3482.JPG"></a><br /><br /><div>I am sitting here drinking coffee!

This diet is what I eat 2 weeks before the show:</div><br /><div>Breakfast: 3 egg whites</div><br /><br /><div>Mid morning: 4 oz. fish</div><div> 2 cups green veggies<br /></div><div>Lunch: 4 oz. fish</div><div> 2 cups green veggies</div><br /><div>Mid afternoon: 4 oz. fish</div><div> 2 cups green veggies<br /></div><div>Supper: 4 oz. fish</div><div> 2 cups green veggies</div><br /><br /><div>**Lots of water. I never realized how technical the diet, cardio and supplements get when competing. This year has been a learning experience for me and I hope to be better next year. </div><br /><br /><div>Someone asked me the other day if I will keep competing.....for now I would say yes. I love the structure and discipline! I love having a goal and seeing the results.</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>The diet before the show is unrealistic. However the weeks leading up to this point is reasonable and just healthy eating. It takes a lot of discipline and "tunnel vision". I read in an article the other day about a competitor who said the only way she can stay on track and not cheat is to have tunnel vision. That is SO TRUE!!</div></div></div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-41557454484443882282009-10-12T04:43:00.000-07:002009-10-12T07:41:33.905-07:00Rainy day...Kaley and I are staying in today enjoying the rain....NOT!

Overall it was good news from my coach. I am stepping up my cardio a few days a week to twice a day. I am doing bleachers in the morning and sprints in the afternoon. This particular show involves a <strong>sports wear routine</strong>, meaning I have to do a routine in addition to posing. YUCK! Can I tell you that God did <strong>NOT</strong> bless me with any kind of coordination or dance abilities!!!! In fact, Casey advised me <strong>NOT</strong> to do this show for that very reason!!! But I decided to go with tennis. Now I just have to decide what the heck I will do.....<br />Below is what the coach had to say about my measurements....<br /><br />Pretty good two weeks. Since April you have had only two better measurements. Getting ready for the Birmingham show you averaged .57 % loss every two weeks. The past two measurements you have averaged .91%. If you were to continue at that rate (.91%) you would be at 11.02% by the November show. If you do better you can be at 10%.The .80% loss put you are 13.28%Your tape measure dropped 1.68% - now at 25.84%your 6 Critical Pinches dropped 3 millimeters. 5 millimeter loss will put you where you were at Birmingham and a 7.5 mm loss will put you at the Charleston show..

My training partners just did a show last weekend and ALL weekend I was envious! I wanted to be there with them. It is hard to describe it, but the feeling of being with all the girls who have worked so hard and being on stage with my partners is so neat and rewarding. Although I should think more toward wanting to beat them or be better, but I totally don't. Is that weird? So I have decided to compete in the November show here in Marietta!<br />I have my work cut out for me. I have 6 weeks to drop my body fat down from 14% to 10 %!! That may or may not sound hard, BUT IT IS! That means STRICT diet and LOTS of cardio. But I am going to give it my best. So far my diet has been awesome. Cardio on the other hand has not! Ugghh.....Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-10661681443774581412009-09-12T09:15:00.000-07:002009-09-12T09:26:23.465-07:00"Amen"The cutest thing happened today that I just have to blog about. As I sat Kaley down at the table to eat lunch, I noticed her bowing her head and mumbling. I was thinking to myself, "What is she doing?" Then all a sudden she yelled "Amen". It was absolutely the most precious thing she has ever done. We always say a quick prayer before she eats but she has never joined in. She just looks at me and sometimes closes her eyes and sometimes repeats what I say. But today she did it all solo! I was quickly reminded that she is paying attention to what I do which keeps me on my toes.<br />As for training, I am not doing a competition again until spring but I am trying to get my body fat back down to around 12%. Right now I am at 15%. For my shows it was 11.5%! Whew, it is hard. I am still having to eat pretty strict and do lots of cardio. However I love the discipline of the diet. I guess it is a love/hate thing because I am still having to give up things I LOVE like CHOCOLATE!!! My coach told me this week I have to give up the wine that I also love. One glass every night is so relaxing for people like me that are SO uptight!!! But oh well, I can do it.Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-7857001615229292792009-08-30T18:46:00.000-07:002009-08-30T19:21:53.336-07:00Kaley turns 2Kaley turned 2 on August 27th.

There have been several nights when I tell my husband I cannot wait till morning to have my first cup of coffee.Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570859013707461650.post-20378489486131238052009-07-29T17:51:00.000-07:002009-08-04T03:46:35.178-07:00"No clothes now..."<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1tbtAMpfxkQ1VyIFgYvzq-IIx0Wys-YJVvMZYvIMyd2Uof94nJwxthRCUzDtXIbGP6TCmiicL7eQFR-G8PdC_JAqYE4fAJ4qkVGIn_pWhZ-0jtZ-5ciHIxXaOf7Y6SES0_DPr3WbBEIk/s1600-h/IMG_2992.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364050607372411138" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1tbtAMpfxkQ1VyIFgYvzq-IIx0Wys-YJVvMZYvIMyd2Uof94nJwxthRCUzDtXIbGP6TCmiicL7eQFR-G8PdC_JAqYE4fAJ4qkVGIn_pWhZ-0jtZ-5ciHIxXaOf7Y6SES0_DPr3WbBEIk/s320/IMG_2992.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrPG28OpK0-JIvj6gr_vRme0NsMjIRJLT_XLGJGQZz9TIK3LgDSAWfbaLyVbtiDbIjE2sPjb38_5bHmNsLbRhj3OnYLlOfW0OpqS5CogyLaAIZuy78YtGmvZ6IsTJuMs73xU_XEBLqgGo/s1600-h/IMG_2993.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364050602144379186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrPG28OpK0-JIvj6gr_vRme0NsMjIRJLT_XLGJGQZz9TIK3LgDSAWfbaLyVbtiDbIjE2sPjb38_5bHmNsLbRhj3OnYLlOfW0OpqS5CogyLaAIZuy78YtGmvZ6IsTJuMs73xU_XEBLqgGo/s320/IMG_2993.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Those are Kaley's famous words before she heads outside to play..."No clothes now." For whatever reason, she LOVES playing with the water hose NAKED! I was in the kitchen while she was playing outside the kitchen door and I heard her talking. I went to check on her and this is what I found... I did not know she could even climb on that bike by herself....a little scary!!!</div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15550006393533344299noreply@blogger.com0
