Rite of Election

Kevin and I are currently going through the conversion process and taking RCIA classes to join the Catholic faith - We are so blessed to have such a wonderful support system and this is such an exciting time in our life. This past Sunday (2-21-10) I participated in the Rite of Election , with Bishop William Higi at the Diocese of Lafayette.


Kevin will participate on the 28th of Feburary - the reason we are going through at different times is because Kevin was baptised before but I have never been baptised.

Me and Mary Grace my sposor - yep she is vouching for me : )

Christy's New Year's Weight Loss Challenge

I am starting the new year off with the same resolution I have every year ~ "lose weight"! However this year I am challenging myself to obtain this goal by doing three things~
1.      To Workout More
2.      Eating Better
3.      Taking the bad stress and stressors out of my life

By doing these three things I believe I can achieve my weight loss goal for 2010  

This is me now at 218 pounds ..I know shocking right??? I plan to lose 25 pounds by the end of  March!

So I will continue to do weekly updates and hopefully I can not only achieve my goals but motivate and inspire some of you to do the same thing.
