Spectacles & Honey Dos

I LOVE my honey's new specs!! Adds flavor to his already handsome look :)

Sunday, I went to church while the fam slept in.. Well, I thought they were sleeping but we moved into our new home a few months ago and are Still unpacking.. We'll get it together sooner than later...

Our FULL Weekend

It started with my first 5k run downtown Houston for the Rodeo. It was overwhelming, rapid, slow, captivating, and completely took the life out of me! But it was fulfilling. If all of that makes any sense. Well. Immediately following the rodeo runners, the rodeo parade began. My hubby did an Excellent job taking care of all 3 kids while mom took about an hour break! That 55 minutes felt like 3 hours. But here's a few pics..

Mister Micah Dedrick, tuckered in and resting well! He sleeps well as long as he's full.

Dior & Meghan said they saw mommy zoom by and really enjoyed the parade! We may not even have to go back this year :)

There I go... Kept a steady pace! .. It was taken on a friend's phone. {guess that's why it's so small}


Dior smiles in front of the horses.

February 29,2004 is a day that we actually got to share in this year. Dior's Birthday has come and she couldn't have been more thrilled about how her we celebrated her special day! Pictures coming soon...

Meghan's 4th Birthday Party... Coming Soon!!!

Meghan is and always will be absolutely Fabulous so tomorrow, we'll celebrate at "Hello Gorgeous" {an Ultimate Spa Party boutique for little girls.} Stay tuned for pics :)

*Jesus, Take the Wheel*

Dior's Birthday Party was an Absolute success of which I am very proud!

In my quiet time now days, I have been focusing on conquering this school {on ALL levels} and fasting and praying.

Here are some scriptures that I have found helpful when the devil's attacks seem unbearable.


Psalm 23:1-4
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.He makes me to lie down in green pastures;He leads me beside the still waters.He restores my soul;He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake.Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil;For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Psalm 27:3,5,13-14
Though an army may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me,In this I will be confident. For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the LORD!

I hope these scriptures bless you as much as they have myself. Happy Tuesday!

Dior's ~Exclusive~ 7th Birthday " Sleep Over " Party

Despite the fact that this will be our second celebration we've given within a thirty day span! It's time to party with Dior for her seventh birthday!!! I have carefully assembled her party invitations and it was similar to an Act of Congress! Lol.. I'm not sure where I missed that you had to assemble each piece. I've taken a picture of the instructions on the back, next time I'll actually read them :) ...



This year for Dior's birthday we're allowing the girls to join us in a luxury suite at the Hilton Hotel & Resort! We'll have our own MAC Make Up Artist, Janice Shufford, come and enhance those beauties! They will also get their hair done and nails polished. Dad's also got a huge surprise for this Birthday Princess!!! I can't wait to post soon.



Last year when we got back from our Anniversary vacation we really didn't get to do a whole lot for her birthday. Dedrick & I agreed to do something really special for her this year because she's been such a huge blessing! Her grades are phenomenal. Her conduct is exceptional and she's such a great help to her mommy while daddy's traveling for work. Birthday parties for the little ones are a lot of work. But they're ALWAYS worth it! Shots out to both our jewels! Meghan, don't worry.. Your special day is coming soon! ;)

~ Our New Endeavor ~

As of December 17, 2010, I am officially a "Stay-At-Home Mom", Domestic Engineer, Full-Time Student, the list goes on. Also, SO Blessed to be the wife of one of the most selfless, loving, caring men on this earth. I am totally excited about our new life!! Meghan will still attend preschool Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays so that mom can study and get errands and chores done with out too much extra help from little miss! We thank God for allowing us to be able to make these kinds of transitions. We have positioned ourselves well. I should be done with school by next year.. Maybe sometime after, I'll be ready for white-collar America. But for the time being I am grateful for this opportunity! Thanks for your prayers in advance!

Love,
The Duckworths
