Last Friday we found out the the school district was going to cut the choir program from Durango High. Everyone was crushed, choir has made us all into who we are today, it gave us motivation to go to school and do well. The students sent a letter to the Governor and...IT WORKED! The choir was saved! YAY!!!!
We were on news 5, 8, 13 and a Spanish channel.

my dog needs a new home )=


this is my doggie, Jax, he is such a sweet dog. My mom is moving soon and I will need to as well so I am trying to find him a good home now. I dont know where I'll be living in a couple months so even though I would like to keep him its prob not practical. He is about 4 years old, hes a little fuller now then in this picture. My mom got him for me on my 18th birthday. (= I want him to go to someone I know if possible.

I have been looking for a night job for some time now. What I am making right now is just not enough to support Ivy and I.
It looks like I will be working from 9pm to 3am with my new job and 9am until 3pm at As You Wish catering (= I'm sooo sooo sooooo blessed that this new job just presented itself out of the blue! Its been so hard trying to figure out bills and trying to move out on my own with only a part-time job and no kind of child support. I get to keep my catering job which I LOVE! Plus I get food everyday!!! (= YAY!!! I'm very excited right now!!!!! Can ya tell (=

my baby is not a baby anymore )=

20 MONTHS!!!!

It seems like Ivy has always been around but at the same time like time is flying by.

She is sooooo polite! Before we eat she always says, "blessing" and she folds her arms for the prayer. (=

When someone sneezes she either says thank you or bless you, or both haha.

Every time someone gets hurt she comes up with her arms open for a hug and says sorry.

Everyday after work when I knock on the door I love to hear her call for me. She gets so excited! I hate leaving for work :/ I call her at lease once everyday while I'm at work.

Her new thing is animal sounds, so far she know what the dog, cat, cow, horse, fish and bear say (=

She has not had any problems in nursery, in fact I spend half the class time in the hall looking through the peek hole. haha she does great!

I am definitely so proud of her and all her accomplishments (=

dance dance!



Please ignore the mess and boxes...we are getting ready to move (=
