Road Trip

   Everyone having a good Sunday? Mine has been great! Got some much needed sleep last night and Brylee woke me up bright and early at 7am saying, "Mommy, it's morning time." I laid there a little while longer then got up and got ready for church. I was having a good hair day too. haha.   Got Brylee fed and ready for church. Roger stayed home to get some work done. Listened to some great praise and worship music and a wonderful sermon.  I really no longer have a baby any more. Now all I have to do is watch her open the car door and crawl into her car seat and fasten her belt all by herself.  Boohoo!!

 After church we came home fixed a sandwich and fruit for lunch then went swimming!  That makes for a great Sunday afternoon. Then Aunt Beth Ann came over to visit. We grilled out and played outside.

I think her eyes are bigger than her stomach. :)

 

 

Oh, let me rewind, Friday while at work, I decided it would be much easier for us to go to Birmingham that afternoon than to get up and drive before the seminar and then drive again back home. Too much driving for one day. 

Me so excited I am work.. I cleaned all my pics and stuff

off all my wall..that's why it's bare ;(

 

So after talking to the hubs and my mother in law we decided to leave Friday afternoon.  So we came home from work packed and headed out on the road. 

Got my essentials.......

Now I'm packed and ready...lol ;)

 

After I packed the car we were on our way.....

Yayy! For a road trip!

 

We stopped on the way in Meridian at Red Lobster for some supper...it was pretty good!

Parmesan tilapia with broccoli and grilled veggies!!  

 

 

We got to the hotel late that night and boy did we pick the wrong hotel!  I didn't get to sleep until after 3:30 am because it sounded as though there were people running up and down the hall on the floor above us. If I had had some sleep works I would have given them some! Geez! 

So by the time I fell asleep my alarm was going off. We got up got ready and packed and went to down town Birmingham. The AdvoCare 360 seminar started at 10 am.  It was great! Very good speakers.  A few nuggets that I took from them: 

- I need to see adversity as a challenge, I need to welcome it, because it will make me stronger, and adversity is preparation for greatness

-Adversity is life's university and all of us are life time students.

This hit home with me especially with my whole job situation.  I know that this experience, this adversity, that I am facing is only going to make me stronger and I need to be thankful for it.  The Lord will not give me more than I can handle.

-the number one worry for people is related to money and finances

- I need to set and stick to a budget...this one is hard for me*

We also had a quick product training. It was very good. I love learning about health and nutrition.

After that we came home. We stopped in the hubs college town and reminisced some. Wow how has it changed.  Hope you all had a great weekend.  What did you do?
