I'm back!

I can not believe it has been three years since I have blogged! I am so glad to be back!
So, this is what has happened in my life lately.
I had a son. Yes, a boy. Not another girl...a boy! And I love him!
My daughters are gorgeous. But this boy. He. Is. Gorgeous!!! Like stunning-gorgeous!!!
He has blonde hair and blue eyes!!! MY kid!
I didn't know I was capable of making something so beautiful.
Well, obviously I didn't make him. God did that...but He used my body to make this amazing little guy. Having a son is...just...so...there are no words to describe it.
I can relate to Hannah in 1st Samuel 1. She became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel, saying, “Because I asked the LORD for him.”
Brayden's middle name is Samuel. And I did ask the Lord for him.
Then Hannah prayed and said: “My heart rejoices in the LORD..."
I asked for a baby boy. I got him. God is good!
So, there's that. I also have become a doTERRA wellness advocate. I love using my oils. I truly believe that every one not only benefits from them but needs them in this society. Our health system is broken and is not set up to take care of the entire population's ailments. We need to do what we can for our families and take our health into our own hands. We need to do what we can as much as possible at home. Prevention is key. Nutrition, exercise, and stress management are so important. I use Lemon every single day to detox, and OnGuard is a must have for us for protecting our immune system. That's just to name a couple of oils that we love and rely on. 

I have been doing yoga for a little over a year now.
I love it! It's my zen. It's my time with God. I worship Him, pray to Him, rejuvenate my soul, align my body, and it's all gentle. No hurting my joints from running too hard on the treadmill...although I enjoy a run from time to time. No hurting muscles to where I can't move for the next three days, although I do feel firmed and toned. I find my peace and my patience, and I de-stress while I'm there. It has changed my life.

I now sell Younique, all natural cosmetics! This is my passion right now! I have found the best mascara ever with Younique. I used to love Aveda's Mosscara. I couldn't do without it. Now I'm super spoiled, and although I love me some Aveda...Younique takes the cake. What I love about it is that I don't have to use false eyelashes to get that long, voluminous look that every woman wants and it's all natural! If you want to host a virtual Facebook party and get free mascara as a gift from me, let me know! It's super fun!

I just got back from a weekend trip to San Francisco that I took with my girlfriends, all thanks to the $ I'm making with Younique! Saweet!Speaking of San Francisco...that city is CRAZY!!! I thought Vegas was bad. I saw more weirdness in two days in SF than I have seen in all my years in Las Vegas. It was fun, but I can't say that I love SF. But I do love my friends and spending time with my bestie was wonderful!

My kids, my loves! They are so big! Ariella is 7 years old. She has been such a help to me with baby Brayden and is so sweet lately. I love having her home for the summer. Aubrey and Bella are turning 4 years old this weekend. Twin birthday party fun! We are going to be having a pool party with cupcakes and lots of yummy stuff to munch on. I love kids' birthday parties! I was meant to be a mother!
My short term plans are to continue to grow my Younique and doTERRA businesses. I will be visiting my mom for the weekend in Jackson Hole, Wy in a couple of weeks. I so look forward to being with her. I plan to write more! I have been so busy with life, that I have forgotten to reflect on the amazing things going on in my life. So, expect to hear more from me! Hugs and love people.
