Special Olympic Bowling with my Little Sister…YAHOO!!

FriendI’m soooooooo excited about the weekend Buddys :)

I will be picking up my little sis Katelin at 7:00 a.m. tommorrow morning.  We have to be at the bowling alley by 8:00 a.m. for the special olympic bowling tournament!!!  I’ve always wanted to be a part of the special olympics and here we go.  Isn’t God amazing, he had a hand in this :)

Don’t think I told you about last weekend?  If I did, sorry I’m repeating but I wanted to share what fun we had.

I picked her up at her house around noon on Saturday (day before Mothers Day).  We stopped at the store and picked a Mothers Day Card, and a picture frame.

I let her pick out a boxed cake and canned frosting.  She make a cake (all by herself) and frosted it.  We picked a background for her picture and she pasted it into the frame, then her school picture on that.  It turned out beautiful (again let her do it herself) :)

So for Mothers Day, she baked her mother a cake, made her a picture in a frame and picked out a Mothers Day Card!! I was really proud of her, she did well and seemed to enjoy herself.  We ended our 4 hour visit with a few games of Wii bowling!!!

Now on to this healthy journey we are all on.  I’m going to be put in some stressful eating situations tommorrow morning.  The bowling event last until noon, and I’ll be STARVED!!! LOL!!!  So I’ll keep my bottle of water close at hand and resist all temptations!!

Wishing you all a wonderful blessed weekend full of happy times and healthy choices.  I love you all sooooooooooo much!!! My second family….the best people around :)

    I just love hearing this stuff Jane. I don’t think God could have picked a better big sister for that girl than you. I can feel your love and excitement coming through the computer.

    Now for tomorrow, can you fix up an emergency snack cooler thingy? Not sure what’s on your eating plan, but I would think it would be better to have stuff in a cooler close by than to cave to any vending machines that may be lurking about.

    Big hugggggggggggggs sweetie and prayers still goin up there for you and your dad.

    I am so glad that you are having a great time with your little sister. What a postive role model you are being to her by providing her roots, but giving her wings!!! I am so proud of you!! I gotta agree with Shan, if you can’t fix a snack cooler at least throw some carrot sticks in your purse before you head out. Can’t wait to see how things go for you, have a great weekend!

    I agree with everyone! you need to bring something with you! fruit, nuts, cheese, carrots…something!!! promise? I know when I get hungry…I get crazy and start eating more than I should…plan ahead and take care of yourself. Would you make your children wait that long to eat? ok…I will stop the mom lecture!

    Thanks for sharing about your little sister! God has blessed you indeed…and her!
