Happy Mother's Day!

I know this post is late, but hey, I'm a busy mommy.  This is my 2nd Mother's Day, and I feel soooooo blessed.  Kendall is the greatest gift from above.  She can always put a smile on my face.  When she says the word,"Mommy," my heart fills with so much joy.  She is just amazing!  Motherhood can have its challenges at times, but I wouldn't have it any other way.  Thank you God for the gift of motherhood, and for trusting me with this precious life.  Here just some random pictures of me and my baby girl.

I just love this saying!

Juicy Juice

Scott and I decided to join this juicing craze.  We have read that drinking the juice of fruits and vegetables can help prevent certain diseases, make you feel better and have energy, plus helps you lose weight.  We got an Omega® Vertical Masticating HD Juicer.  It was amazing to me to see the pulp in one container and all the juice in another.  Our first juice surprise was a Hurricane of sorts.  It consisted of Kale, strawberries, oranges, grapes, pineapple, and celery.  It was pretty good.  It did leave a little celery after taste, but I like celery so that was fine with me.  I plan to drink a juice concoction once a day.  I can say that I do feel more vibrant and full of more energy.  I don't know if its just my mind playing tricks on me, but I can feel the energy burst.  I will keep you posted on how this juicing craze continues here in the Dismute house. Stay tuned!!!!!!!

The Zoo Experience

This past weekend, we went on our first family vacation.  We went to Memphis, Tennessee, and had a blast.  The main attraction that we looked forward to was taking Kendall to the Memphis Zoo.  It was a first for all of us, so we were all excited.  Kendall was so cute!  The funniest thing was when she called all the pelicans, cranes, penguins, and all the other birds "Ducks," and all the other animals were "Dogs."  Here are some pictures from our experience at the zoo.  Memories were definitely made!!!!!!
