I guess it was about time....

I've been reading so many blogs lately and getting sucked into these peoples lives that I felt it was time I finally started my own. I agree with my friend Tiff, when she said it was the hardest thing to come up with a name for your blog. I thought how can I describe me and my life in a couple of words....hence the name Husband, Kids & Big Hair. If you know me, then you know that's my life! I thought about adding lipstick too, but that was just too much for a title. I have the worst memory in the world, but I can tell you the one thing I dreamed about growing up was getting married! Who was going to be my husband, what was our last name going to be. Don't you remember when you used to have a crush on some boy in school and you would secretly write your first name and then his last name like 100 times just to see how nice it would like on paper! haha The second most important thing to me growing up was a big family. Oh, how I couldn't wait to have babies! I love them! How many would I have, what would they be...boys or girls or both? I just loved babysitting as a teenager. Not only was it fun, but the money wasn't bad either. Ok, now on to my big hair. Yes, I love me some big hair. Those of you who know me, know I don't go out of the house without my big hair. As far as I'm concerned it never has and never will go out of style. Some of you may even want in on the secret to big hair, well here it is....it's all about the product! Girl, you have got to spend your money on the right product and put alot of it in your hair. I can remember actually checking out of school because of a bad hair day. I would call my mom from the pay phone and tell her, mom...I'm having a bad hair day and need to come home and the good southern mama she is, said ok darlin' just tell'em your sick and give me a call and come on home. It's so true, just ask her.


Well I have my Prince Charming, Jamie...and I have my babies, Peyton & Piper...and of course, I have my big hair. So you are probably thinking, wow she has everything she ever wanted. Well, that's what I thought too, but something was missing. Something big, don't get me wrong, I was happy. But, I just couldn't put my finger on it....then it happened. I started my walk with Jesus. Now, I grew up in a Christian home, had very Southern Christian grandparents and always went to church. Until, High School that is...then I didn't go so much. I always knew who Jesus was, knew that He died on the cross for me and knew that He was in Heaven. But, I never knew He wanted a personal relationship with me. Wow, how that has changed me so. I am so complete. I can't learn enough about Him. It also doesn't hurt that I have the best church family in the entire world! I am definitely very partial to them. We have the best time together, it's a true family. I can tell you that having a personal relationship with Christ is the best decision I have ever made. To know that He loves me no matter what I have done. That He is my true Daddy in Heaven, just looking down on me waiting to see what I do next, clapping at every accomplishment, waiting to pick me up when I fall, hug me when I'm sad...that's just so awesome to me! So I choose to live for Him. To try my best to bring Glory to Him in everything I do. Try is the key word, I am so far from perfect.....


That's about it for now. I can't wait to add to my blog. Until later...Kik
