Haha JK Nate:)

Thank you, Lord, for my

Wonderful

Family!

So here a few pics of when my mom fixed "Warrag DaWali" aka Grape Leaves..it is one of our very favorite Dishes but we don't get it that offen because it is so time consuming..rolling the rice and meat in the grape leaves..and taking out the stuffing from the zeucchini and filling it up with the rice..i know it doesn't sound very time consumin but it is! My wonderful mom spent HOURS fixing this for us and we enjoyed it very much...Grandparents and Scott and Sarah and of course my Pumpkin Ethan joined us...so fun..and not to mention YUMMY!

"Aunt Lulu, Please share with me" :)



This is a face only a mother could love..and I don't think she's too sure about it herself..ahah JK
Nate! I love you!



Ethan Like Warrag Dawali too:)


YUMMY!! Someone pass the Lemon please!

Papaw and Ethan!

Spending time with my Kimmie:)

After Youth Challege Kim came and spent the night and the next day with me! It was so much fun and so good to hang out with her again! We had so much fun just spending time together! On Fri night after youth Challege we drove to my house and I went to bed about 3 or so ( I had been up almost 24 hours so I was a little tired) and then on Sat I got up and went to the store and bought some groceries so my mom could fix Kims favorite Arabic dish. My Grandparents came over and enjoyed the meal with us. Then we hung out at the house for a little bit, stopped and got coffee. went shopping. Picked up Sarah and Ethan. Shopped at Garden Ridge (against my wishes). went Home and said goodbye to my Kimmie! It was so much fun to get to hang out with her again for a lil while...Thanks, James for letting her come and stay with me:) Anyhow, we had a lot of fun and hope to do it again soon..and next time maybe get a few more pics?!?! here are a few that I took..enjoy:)

I think Coco enjoyed having Kim come too:)

OOOPS:)

Okay so I just checked my moms blog and we pretty much have the same pics up:D Oh well I hope you guys enjoy em anways:) More pics later of something different..I Promise:) Love ya all! Peace Out!!

Our Trip to FL

WHew!!! I have been Kidnapped for the past month and have not been able to post!! Don't worry Im okay they caught the bad guys and I am back! Okay so that's not very true but I just haven't felt like blogging much..but no worries Im back:) Okay so as you've probably already have seen on my moms and Eric's blog we were so privileged to be able to go down the Hobe Sound,Fl for about two weeks and spend time with Eric, Hannah and my ADORABLE little Jz! It was an awesome trip!! It was so good to be able to spend time with all of us together again! It had been like two years since I had seen them and didn't really know how Jz would act towards me but when we went to pick them up from the airport and I went to hug Jz he looked at me and Said "MAMMOO" now I know that is not my name but it showed me that he recognized me and remembered me from the webcam..so it started to make me cry and then when I went to hug Hannah I think the emotion of missing her for the past two years came out and I cried! I was so glad to see them and just spend time with them! I tried to soak in every min. I could and video as much as I could, which is why we don't have THAT many pics is because I video taped most of the time. Anyhow, here are some pics of the trip!! Oh by the way, these pics are not in order but enjoy anyhow.....:)



The Wolfe's had us over a couple of times and we enjoyed ourselves very much!
Hmmmm...I wonder what Jz is getting into while his mommy is busy talking? :)



Cleaning up water after Joseph:)



Sherri fixed a beautiful meal for us!


Will is not too busy to cuddle and hold Ethan!

Are you scared?!

Hannah, What did you do this time?!?!

"Dad, Cousin Ethan is cheating..."

"No..here let me show you..."

Ethan: "King me"

JZ: "OH good move"

I wonder who won?

I LOOOOVE my Sister!

BEST FRIENDS!

Calling ALL Christians!

Okay so Im coming to you with this pretty late and without much notice..I have wanted to get on here days ago and ask you to do something ..BUT being the procrastinator that I am..here I am:) Okay so as everyone knows the elections are on tues. and it scares me to death to think what would happen if Obama gets in office..I know I don't talk about politics much here on my blog..frankly I am sick and tired of politics..I wish we could just keep the President we have now and not worry about it..but its not the case. I know People may say "What's the big deal? its just an election! But its so much bigger than that and I think as Christians we NEED to rally together and fast and pray these next couple of days..which is exactly why Im on here. Starting tonight (Sunday) at midnight...monday 12:00AM we are starting a fast that is won't be ending till Tues. at 5:00PM...Please if you will join us in this..it is more important than I can express! It kind of reminds me of the story in the Bible when where Abraham begged God not to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah and God told him that if he found only ten people faithful that he would not destroy the land for their sake. Yes Gomorrah was destroyed but not b/c God wasn't willing to give them a chance it was b/c there werent even ten people found faithful. I know you are probably saying "what in the world does Sodom and Gomorrah have to do with this election?" and my answer is EVERYTHING! if Obama gets in office I believe it will be the desruction of us all! Its no secret he is muslim and no doubt WILL be coming after us Christians!! So this tues is not only a political battle..IT IS a Spiritual battle and we need EVERY Chritian to rally and pray with us!! Will God find enough people faithful enough to fast and pray and give America another chance?! You decide!

Woof Woof!

Last weekend the Church Youth Group had a camp out and at last min I decided to go b/c sarah called me and wanted me to come so I told her I probably wouldnt stay the night and so I went over there and what do you know??!? I ended up staying the night..Scott and sarah had an extra tent set up...yeah now I pride myself on LOVING to camp but when I say camp I mean at least on an air mattress..nope not this time I had a sleeping bag, no socks because smart me decided to wear sandals..yeah I couldnt wait for morning to come!! Haha Coco and I were like the first up and if you know me at all Im not usually like that...I like my sleep. All in all it was fun and I was glad I went:) Haha so in the morning my widdle punkin wakes up and this is how hes dressed..haha we ended up having two puppies at the campsite that morning...He's so adorable!

Draw station Update :)

Hey Gang Im back!! So since I last updated you about having to go back to work the other day I decided I would blog and tell you all how it went...soooo I ended up taking like a 20 min nap (which was soooo refreshing by the way) got up, got ready, got into my beautiful car, put in the address into my GPS system,stopped got gas and headed downtown..so I finally arrive at the Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Building and go up to the Clinic part of the building, now when I arrive I find out this is where like the Psychologist and such work it wasn't like a regular family Doc's office, so anyho I go to the desk and the girl asked me if this was my first time and I let her know it was and so she came and took me to this room (it was a Doc's office, I guess the Doc wasn't in that day and she gives me her badge so I can get into the medical records room so I can get the patients requistions and call the patients and take them back to the Docs office and draw their blood...SOOO I get my first patient right aways and I take her back and as I am taking her back to the room I ask her name and she tells me then she says b/c Im a star!!! :) so I take her back draw her blood and she tells me she has been in the special olympics and has gotten medals which was cool..she was very nice. Anyhow, soooooo during my whole time there at the clinic I have to keep walking back and forth to the medical records room and checking to see if I have any patients to draw on so the whole time I was there I get three patients..I did some waiting some picture taking a little listening to the room next to me..shhhh:) so anyhow, it's time for me to go home and I start packing up my stuff getting things ready to leave and here comes this guy with a paper to draw blood on my fourth patient..are you kidding me?!? this whole time Im waiting on a patient and now you bring him to me?!?! hahah no it wasnt that bad so he comes back and I draw his blood and so I finally get done what Im supposed to get done wiht the paperwork and I go around to the girl who gave me her badge and I ask her where Im supposed to drop off my blood and she points behind me and I turn around and this guy like waves at me and I turn back to the girl and Im like what?! and Im like am I supposed to draw blood on him and I think she tells me Im supposed to give the blood samples to him....DUMBEEE me!!! DUH I know this guy he works at my lab!!!! Oh well..SOOOO after all that complaing the last time on my blog Im back to report that it wasn't that bad it was actually kinda fun!!! So anyhow I know this is kinda long but I wanted to post and let you know how it went...enjoy some pics....:)



Here's the view from the Doc's office


Im waiting.....


....and waiting....


and waiting a little more..ok so it wasn't THAT bad:)

Why did I have to answer my work phone?!?

So here I am again..sorryyy no pics today I only have a few min to blog! So I got off work today at about ten after nine and I get home for a little bit, get on the computer..and I hear this beeping sound..beep beep beep..and I know what it is..it's my work phone..ugh..so I go downstairs and its my team lead.. she asks me if I want to do a draw station..Ive never done a draw station but its where you go to a building and they bring patients to you and you draw on them..hence the name draw station..anyhow, so she gives me the name of the Place Im supposed to go and I call dispatch to get the address and guess what??! It's downtown!! Now I've pretty much lived in Cinci my whole life but I hate going downtown by myself..i know Im a chicken but something about it I just don't like..SOOOO Im gonna post this ,take a lil nap then get up and go back to work...oh well I guess we can look on the bright side and say its more money in my pocket...but staying home and relaxing is so much more enticing..okay so i need to snap of it and just do it!! ALRIGHT gang im off for a quick nap and back to work

He makes me smile:)

These are a few of my favorite things...:)

Spending time with my widdle punkin
