Birthday prayer for my husband...

What more can I possibly ask for from God than what I already undeservably received...an amazing, loving and enduring husband, awesome parents and in-laws, dedicated friends (the few that I have...), an array of memories that I wouldn't trade for anything in this world...oh...so much to be greatful for. But one thing I do ask of God today is to bless my dear husband on his birthday....with health, wisdom, strength, love, patience with me...and so much more.
What an awesome day we had...good dinner with good friends...yummy cake (chocolate rasberry mousse...I think I want another slice!), good conversations...bit of "Julie and Julia", American Idol AND Dancing with the stars!!! All in one night....
So...now we're getting ready for a weekend birthday celebration...and where else could this take place but in our favorite city in the continental USA (well...I have the right to change my mind once I see LA!!!)...but NEW YORK CITY!!! I am super excited and I hope we have an awesome time!!!
so...until next time when I have some info from NYC...whoever reads this...have a super weekend!!!!

I'm a sinner...

....saved by grace!!! WEll..yeah, ok, we know that...but I'm a sinner because pride has invested my being!! I do not know what it means to be proud of a kid (first time they walk, first time they talk, first time they smile (hopefully not in this order!!!)...but anyways.), I do know what it means to be a proud wife. I am the proudest wife in the world tonight...we just found out my dear husband got accepted into the Lamont School of Music in Denver Colorado for the Masters in conducting program. Now, for all you out there who do not know...getting accepted into a conducting program is close to impossible (we found that the hard way when we went for his audition at Julliard in NY and out of hundreds of candidates they only called 12 people for the audition and they only took one person....helloooooo...eye opener!!! So yeah....I am very proud of him and love him to death!!!!!
So...enough about him (sorry babe!!!)...I have purple hair!!! I loooooooooooooooove it...it looks completely awesome (if I may say so myself!!!!!!!).
Ok...enough for tonight...I'm out, I got a crucial BBall game to watch!! For everyone that reads this...you must really love me..therefor I love you back!!!!!

The beauty of spring...

Although I lived in Florida for a full year, I don't think you can appreciate the sun and the way nature embraces spring, as you can living in...well...let's say...CANADA!!!! (I know my American friends who think Canadians live in igoloos and ride their dog sleds to work are definetly wondering what does sun/heat/Canada have to do together in one sentence). It is definetly invigorating to see the sun, feel its warmth (close to 80 degrees), hear the birds (not too early in the morning please!!)...go for a walk with your husband (AFTER severe convincing that when you come back he can play PS3 as much as he wants)...enjoying a BBQ on the patio...aaaahhh...spring!!!!!!
But today is not only a beautiful day as far as weather is concerned...it's a beautiful day for its meaning - GOOD FRIDAY. How can I ever relate what that means to me?! My words are too weak, my vocabulary is too poor to express my gratitude for what Jesus did for me. All I can do is live my life showing him my thankfullness and love.
And I'm definetly awating with anticipation Ressurection Sunday.....ready for celebration.
In the words of "My big greek fat wedding": Cristos Anesti - Alithos Anesti (don't mind the spelling!!!!)
