Bowling and a child....



It was such a beautiful day yesterday!  Thank God for all that he has revealed to me and my family.  We went to Sunset mall Gabby, my husband and I after having a bite to eat at a Sushi buffet.  I love stuffing my face with ALL YOU CAN EAT SUSHI!!!  When we got to Sun Set and not sure where to go and what to do, but we approached Splitsville.  I wasn't too sure I wanted to do this because of having Gabby in our presence.  But I'm sure glad we did!  As you can see in the video Gabby definitely enjoyed herself.
My two LOVES
I'd love to do a photo shoot here
Reminds me of Hortan Plaza in San Diego

Again my two LOVEs


We also went to LA Sweets where I got a couple of Cup Cakes which were DELICIOUS.  I am so into this cupcake phenomenon it's outrageous.  Hope soon to start my business with cake pops to continue this trend of sweets!

Well anyways I am thankful for Gods beautiful glorious world.  I hope each and everyone of you enjoys your day today. 
Take care and God Bless.

Where does the time go...


Geezzz I just seem to never have time to write in my blog!  Gabby takes most of my time, which I wouldn't change for the world.  Then church activities, or family activities come next, and the occasional jobs.  Well the recent church activity or you can say volunteer work was helping our family church transform a crack house to a ministry house.  It saddens me to see such a beautiful home was being used for trafficking drugs and/or worse things.  But it brings me joy that there is going to be a change to that community and a light will shine in that community and awareness that God is in control and he wants the best for these people.

Well another fun and relaxing time has been house sitting for our Pastor.  As you can tell in the picture Gabby enjoys exploring their home, every nook and cranny. HA HA!
 She's very creative in how she plays. 
 Remember to take time to read the bible RK says.
 Gabby not really enjoying her first time @Chuckee Cheese
 Probably because it is a big MOUSE

So I am sharing this link with you of what I used to prepare my taxes. Enjoy!

Zumba, Zumba, Zumba



I've been so excited about our recent program brought to the church!  Zumba! it's for ladies only at our church and if you've been to a session you know why.  I was so excited the first time I tried it, and have been more pumped to do my other workouts from Tina Landon, Darrin's Dance Moves, and my collection of dance music videos. 

I am so happy blessed to have dance back into my life.  It brought me back to the times when I kept close watch of my favorite back up dancers like Mykal Bean, Karla Andrade, Zena Foster, and many more!  Recently my friend Mykal Bean who has been in videos for Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, Missy Elliott and many many other artistes came out with his acting/modeling/dancing video reel.  Which was really impressive.  I am so happy for him with all the success he has come across, and I love the fact he has given a lot of his glory to God.  Any ways look out for his upcoming movie Boogie Town, and there are other things in the works, but I'm not sure what they are.  I guess he's not ready to disclose these things yet ;)  Another thing coming up is his birthday March 9th, so I pray he has a wonderful and blessed birthday.  Check out his demo reel below.


You can also follow him on his twitter @Mblaze09

Anyways I can't wait for Zumba on Friday!  Let me know your dancing stories, videos, or whatever.  Take care and God Bless.

I know, I know, I know.....


I still have not mastered taking the time 2 post on my blog.  I really hope I can manage soon, for I am excited about my upcoming ventures for the month of March.
Well to cetch you up to speed I've been currently spending a lot of time serving my church family in many ways.  Honestly I never realized how much of a non server I've been throughout my whole life.  I mean I've helped when I feel like it for people, but a lot of times I didn't ever want to take the time.   I feel I have grown spiritually that it's not about me and there is a greater purpose for just serving for LORD.  Really has been an eye opener.
(This is our LIFE closet, helping families in need)


I am coming to terms that I am now a Miamian and finding spots that remind me of San Diego.  We recently took a trip to Coconut Grove as a couples night with our church family.  I have to say this area reminded me of Embarcadero  in a way.  Soon I want to take more trips out their but I was able to snap a picture of their walk area.

We were also able to check out parts of the Art Walk.  We went into the free part and $1 part, because we got there a little too late and it wasn't worth it to pay $10 dollars to enter.  But the parts that we were able to see were pretty awesome.  There are so many talented people out there, ranging from Painting Art, to rocking chairs, jewelry and other creative items.  I really enjoyed seeing these candle holders, that looked like candles. So you place a candle inside a candle it illuminates the design around the candle holder.  I wasn't able to take a picture, and now I can't seem to find who the creator is so if you know what I'm talking about please email me:)

Anyways gonna close now....I hope this has caught you up to speed a little.  I will post tomorrow about Zumba, and an update of one of my favorite dancers/friend Mykal Bean :)

Take care and God Bless.

Things don't always go as planned...


 I usually find that out all the time.  Started off that I had bought a pound of that chocolate bark from walmart, and for some reason I don't have it when I get home.  On top of that I don't have the receipt to call and find out if they still have it or if I'm just losing my mind and it's in the house @_@.  Ok so thats just a part of it.  So I buy another block of chocolate a lot smaller, but thinking it would accommodated for what I have and what I need for these cake pops.  Well, turns out I needed a lot more than what I had ~_~.  Well lets just say it did not make it to church on Sunday!  
(an image of the half covered cake pops)
Well today we went to La Vina to get our LIFE Closet together, which is coming a long pretty well.  We were able to get together 5 care bags together.  It was a group of 3 ladies and our 4 kids running around playing while we put together bags and hanging clothes.  It was actually a great success, and we are still seeking donations so if you'd like to help and are in the Miami area please check out our needs - http://lavinacc.blogspot.com/p/life-closet.html

Gotta get going, but I hope to be able to post more later, just really tired and have to give the little one a bath.  Take care and God bless.

Ugh.....


Wow just realized that my first post for the new year looked horrible.  The formating was way off @_@.  Ugh, well I should be getting to bed, but I wanted to make sure I started posting regularly.  I just finished posting reasons why people don't go to church on my church's blog - http://lavinacc.blogspot.com .  I really hope people will stop making excuses and make time for going to church.  I plead guilty to being one of those people.  I used to want to be too tired.  It was a horrible excuse.  My husband explained to me once that it's the devil who plays  our emotions and our body to do what he wants, which is not go church and honor God.  He'll bring up battles and help start fights.  It truly is a spiritual battle out there.  It's too bad the devil hasn't realized he's not going to win!
Anyways it was really gloomy today *yesterday*, and it finally started raining/pouring around 12am this morning * hence it is 1:50am*   I hope today is not going to be the same.  Today I hope to finally accomplish those cake pops that I was talking about in my last post.  I have not been very good at keeping my new years resolution, as always...but hopefully I can get back on track.


I've got to go, I started writing everything opposite of what I wanted to say, which means my brain is malfunctioning ha ha.  Hope you all have a nice night/morning take care and God  Bless.
