Day 1 of 2012 January 1, 2012

Is unbelievable! Today is the first day of  year. Where is the hours going?

We said goodbye to 2011, and welcome 2012 with our kids and Kevin’s family. We had a great time.

For me it is always a bittersweet moment when the last and first day of each year meet. It makes me so sad to look back and know all the time I wasted. Always making excuses for what reasons I didn’t do the things I wanted to do for God, things for or with my kids, husband, for myself, and no to mention friends. I don’t want another wasted year. I never make new years resolutions because Im afraid I will fell and not accomplish any of my goals. This year I want to make priority to do many things that will impact my life  and my family’s lives. So I made my self a short list of a few things I want to accomplish this year but preferred to get it done in the next month or so.

• The main thing I want to make sure I do; is live my life for God. Surrender completely to Him and make Him the center and main focus of my life.
• I want my kids to fall in love with our Savior. I need to make sure they spend time reading and knowing the Bible.
• Invest more time in the church.
• Have more family time.
• Blog more; at least 3 times a week. ( )

I need to keep my self on check with this first 5 items. Is not much and is only what God commands us to do. (But I struggle with it) At least the blogging is getting done.

It feels good to be back.

Happy 2012 to everybody.

“Soccer Mom” March 12, 2011

Im on my way to coach Alex’s soccer game and rapidly this phrase came to mind; I have become “Soccer mom”

But what is a soccer mom? Well, according to  Wikipedia this is the definition;

The phrase soccer mom generally refers to a married middle-class woman who lives in the suburbs and has school age children.^[1][2] She is sometimes portrayed in the media as busy or overburdened and driving a minivan.^[1][3] She is also portrayed as putting the interests of her family, and most importantly her children, ahead of her own.^[1]

Never thought that I will be in this position, and here I am.  SCARY :0

Never say never…

Flu March 6, 2011

I can’t believed we are on week 3 with the flu virus living at home with us. Not only type B (regular flu) now type A (different type of the flu)
Apparently my poor daughter has been exposed to it at school and brought it with her and pass it to Alex and I. So far Arianna is the only one that got slam with both, I just pray that ends there and she gets time to heal and be ready for her trip to the nations capitol.
But what bothers me the most is the fact
that school did not bother to inform anyone about the viruses been spread though out the school. I learn that a minimum of 5 kids and 1 teacher had been out of school prior to my daughter getting sick. I think this is a good number for the school to consider sending some type of awareness to parents.
Good think everyone is well and ready to roll  :) .

Hello blogging world!!!! January 22, 2011

Can’t believed it has been 9 months since my last post.  I had the plan on moving to my own website. But the proses is long and demanding. If you visit, you’ll find that is not ready at all. I’d played with it and Im getting familiar with the site but is not ready for the world wide web.

Like everyone else, I have my new year’s resolutions, and top number one is to keep the blog up to date, or work on the website.(Hope I can commit) So far not good

I have met new people, kids are back in regular school, we started  a new homegroup, and change my work schedule. It feels like a new life. So glad everything is back yo normal. (pics to follow on next post)

Well, thats all for now.

Im so proud of my self  “First post of 2011… yeah!! “

January February 2, 2010

Can’t believed the month of January is gone. (where ???)

I keep saying that one my new years resolution will be having this site up to date, …hahaha (not hapenning)

Where does time goes?

I’m I really that bad with my time management?

Here is a quick review of what when on at the Busby’s household for the month of January

We start it 2010 having a great family time in Atlanta. Last time we were at the Georgia Aquarium Alex was only 4 months old. We also took a tour thru the CocaCola Museum.

Que feo Tibuton

Dia de Reyes

Tremenda Rosca

Saras promotion

Excellent food @ the Lazy Goat

Good Times

NewSpring Church four campuses including; Anderson, Greenville, Florence, and Columbia, fill the Bi-Lo Center for a tenth anniversary service on Sunday, January 24, 2010.

The feeling was overwhelming.

Can’t belived I had been a part of this movement

And to top it up I started a Great bible study

Let the truth that “The Word became flesh” resonate inside you today. If you ever question your worth, remember that “The Word became flesh” to die for you. If you ever question God’s acceptance or love for you, remember “The Word became flesh” to save you from your sin. If you ever wonder if God cares about what is weighing you down, remember “The Word became flesh” to give you eternal, abundant life today.

I always struggle with accountability, and this is a great way to keep my self a little more focus. The explanation of the study is awesome NewSpring without a doubt is a great Church.

I look forward many years of fellowship and learning @ NewSpring.
