X-Man

X-man is a little name nick name given to my best friend Marsha's baby Xander. He was born in April with 6 heart defects. Since then he has had two open heart surgeries and he is doing great! Here is a little video about his life so far. Some of the pictures in the video are Stacy Bristow originals. And above are the most recent pictures I took. Enjoy! Also for more of Xander's story visit his web site http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/xanderthomaswade

Thank You Heroes






We had a solider send off in Wylie today. While we were awaiting the troops to pass by I was thinking of all the times I have seen soldiers in a parade, troops marching up the streets in the news, young men and women in army trucks smiling and waving, and that is what I expected to see this morning. But, this was no parade. These were American soldiers, who said goodbye to their families, loaded up on these very buses, on their way to the airport, to get on a plane and serve their country. These are men and women who woke up in their beds this morning and will not awake in there own homes, near their families, for many months. What amazing people. What heroes.

If ever there was a time for a prayer to be heard. And now is the time, to hear every word. Now that our boys called soldiers have gone, Please march with them and keep them strong. Stand beside them if they have to fight, And in the darkness be their light. Don’t desert them, march in their faith, So they’ll be here when the morning breaks. Bring them home safe and sound, Across the waters to peaceful ground. Home to loved ones, mother’s wives, daughters, sons,Bless them all, each and every one. They stand for freedom and make our flag true,These boys called soldiers for the red, white and blue. A prayer for a soldier, please let it be heard, And please Lord, hear every word. A prayer for a soldier, with the job to be done, Please bring them home, these soldiers your sons. Please bring them home, the soldiers, your sons.

AMEN.

"If you get into a fight, don't take your helmet off," he said. "We're looking for smart football players, not dumb ones. In the interest of time, don't get into any more fights today."

Today...or yesterday now I guess!


Today was an awesome day! I started off with a little sleeping in (I am going to start to conquer that now to get back in the swing of waking up early for school!)


Then off to the gym for a little workout. After that I had to quickly shower to make my hair appointment!! Yes I cut it shorter!! I love it! Pictures to come later because I don't feel like digging out my camera right now.


After that I had a little visit with my friend and saw her beautiful baby boy Xander! From there I jetted off to lower greenville to catch one of my favorite bands (introduced to me by Trish) Tilly and the Wall. They tap dance!! They totally rocked! I love love love live music!
