damn. marcus i seriously just sat there stunned when i saw your picture on the news. my heart is seriously broke. and just kinda laying there. like.. wtf! and why. you were such a nice guy.. brilliant, hilarious, attractive, kind.. like a heart of gold. its not fair. its so not fair. you will be missed. but more so you will be remembered and honored.

“Stand Down Sgt Marcus Preud’homme. Your mission is complete. May you rest in Eternal and Honored Peace sir.”

whoadie, you will be cherished forever.

its wedding time.
im so glad their finally getting married.

my cousin Edward and his fiance Cheryl are getting hitched on the 4th and we’re all headed up to wisconsin for the shindig. yay.

im kinda dreading it.. b/c my family is as southrn as sweet tea and fried chicken and well her family.. hmmm its just gona be interesting. but alas they will be family too. all i know.. is that when my family gets together for something this big.. you NEVER know what could happen. so mixing all of my family.. including the family in jersey.. with a new family from milwaukee.. its going to be interesting.  good times.

but not to worry.. i’ll have my favorite aunt with me the whole time.. we’ll probably be drinking maragritas.. eating peanuts and laughing at everyone.. until she marries off her son on friday. then we’ll be drinking maragritas and crying lol. yay.

dweeb and bride..

thats better.. eddie and cheryl

::sigh:: the boys. justin.. poor granma and eddie

yes yes. we are a lovely bunch. and we get along so well..

aunt vicki is it just me..
or is everyone in this family a bit cynical?

uncle ed isnt.. he’s just really tired.

and then theres always moma..
someone hide the cheap wine..

OK so i know how i can fall behind in the times and miss out on things.. but if you’ve never heard of this band.. let me introduce you.

Needtobreathe. 4 guys from south carolina. a cool/interesting mix between stuff such as lynyrd skynyrd/ john mayer/ and sometimes sounding like coldplay.. and with the producer being the guy from collective soul.. ahhh its just amazing! ok.. here … let me proove it to you

Washed by the Water: NeedtoBreathe

More Time: NeedtoBreathe

Signature of Divine: NeedtoBreathe

ok. thats it. im just really really loving this band right now. amazing.
check em. and then thank me later lol.

“i’ll write your name in the sand and watch as the waves washes you away. no matter how long it takes for those waves to come, i’ll wait unti’ll your gone. as i see your name erased by those passing waves, a feeling of relief passes over me as if those waves would never come to wish you goodbye. i’ll give you up to the sea and  i’ll watch you float off into the breaking sun. i’ll give you up cause your already gone. yesterdays memories will not hold me back from makeing the best of my todays. i have given you up to the sea and there’s no holdin back for me. i’ll walk down this ocean shore line with a smile on my face and the sun lighting up my soul’s rythms and my heart’s melodies. i’ll always remember the spot where i wrote your name and watched as it was washed away. moving on with the sun shining on my soul’s face. moving on as i watched you be washed out to sea with your fading memories.”

WHY ARE GUYS JERKS?!

Do they think its a game? Why cant he be a man!? WHY CANT HE BE THE MAN GOD HAS CALLED HIM TO BE!
Why do Christian girls put Christian guys on a pedistol?
(ya ya ya.. you say you dont.. but you do. in a nonchalant kind of way. “oh he’s a man of God.” “he will take my feelings into consideration” “he loves Jesus so he wont hurt me”) yah im guilty of it too. but i learned my lesson from todd. i mean hell, he was a “Trailer Man”. in my eyes, that was as high as any man could go. he prided himself in being that amazing man of God loving and discerning and faithful.. FAITHFUL? yah right.

P. you dont deserve her. something inside me tells me you were playing a game. like lets play house. YOU HAD HER MOVE THERE! FALL IN LOVE! PURSUE MARRIAGE! only to decide that “mommy knows best” how dare you! HOW DARE YOU! DID YOU EVEN CONSIDER THE FACT THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SPREADING RUMORS ABOUT HER? HELLO? P.  i had a great feelings about you. i thought you were kind and wonderful and a God fearing Man who put everything through God first. i dont know if im angry or ashamed or hurt.

im angry at satan. im sooooo effing mad at satan right now its not even funny. im not ashamed or hurt. but i do feel sorry for you. b/c you lost one of the most precious daughters of the King. and quite honestly.. after the stunt you just pulled.. you dont deserve her. b/c obviously your too busy letting your mommy run your life. i thought you were supposed to give your life to Christ to lead you. not your mommy. P. im sorry. i mean no disrespect..

but i’ve lost all respect for you.

has it really been that long since i updated.. wow.
well.. here it goes..

Today, i offically applied for the Pais Project: Great Britain!
and if all goes well, i’ll be in England by January!

SO THIS IS ME AND MY STINKIN HOTT FRIEND KRISTIN

YAH, SHE’S CANADIAN… LOL WE WERE BORED…

PLAYING W/ CLARK HILTY’S  WEBCAM…

GOOD TIMES!

soon, my love. soon.

do you ever see something, notice something.. and it repeats itself to you. over and over and over, like its trying to get your attention? if you know me.. like really know me, then you’re already used to the fact that i see numbers and they mean something. usually biblically speaking. i usually refer it back to one of my favorite books.. and its normally just the first book that comes to mind. in the past its been 215, and the book would be philippians.

philippians 2:15
..so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe

or 4,567, also in philippians(4:4-7)
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus

to the normal person.. i’m weird or a bit.. umm crazy? but anyway.. for the longest time.. i would see 911. i know i know.. sept 11th. right? wrong. i mean.. seriously would see it EVERYWHERE. on the tv, in a movie, in a book, on the clock, in the car on the radio, in a store. i always brought it back to sept11 until one day i had a friend tell me that she was praying for me and she heard that He too was praying for me. b/c He loves me so much and wants me to get it. just to understand it and get it. later on i decided to try the whole biblical bingo as i like to call it and boom.

philippians 1:9-11
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God.

seriously, woa. its been a while since all this actually went down, but.. now everytime i see that number i just get this feeling of warmth and such. like yah, he loves me. its his way of saying, hey kid. whats happening.  in fact, i saw it today. 

lets see.. its been a while.. so let me up date..umm i dyed my hair. wait, did i already tell yall that? its black. and hot. and i’ll post some pictures..

 but.. ummm.. oh. and for the big announcement!!

I QUIT THE BAR!!
i know i know! its been long overdue but God finally stepped in and gave me better oppertunities and a better job!  dont get me wrong, i LOVED  the bar.. i LOVED being a bartender. 100 %! but.. like genie said.. “your just not a bartender” basically, i wasnt called to be a bartender. but you know what. i believe everything happens for a reason. i believe with all my heart had i not taken the bartending job.. i wouldnt be starting my new job tomorrow…

ok so ask yourself, whats the common focus in all three pictures?
1. Military
2. Children/Families
