This is where and WHAT Steve and I have been doing since April. Lot's of hard work and it's starting to pay off. I can see our bodies changing, our health is getting stronger and our habits are decreasing. You can check back to this site daily and the picture is always different for each day. Sometimes you may catch Steve or I on there doing some crazy WOD. ((workout of the day))

E and L Boyd

This is two very important girls in my life who I love dearly. I stole these pictures from Laura's blog. These were some beach pictures taken by Phil who is a wonderful photographer.

Family Beach Time 2010

Many more will come as soon as I steal them off of Dad's page but Im pretty sleepy so this will be short. My lovely parents gazing into the sunset. Miss Eva and Miss Lily cheezing for the camera. One of the nights we went fishing Steve got me to take the shark off that I caught. Boy did it feel weird and this also kept me out of the water. One night Emily wanted me to braid her hair, so I did.

Good night

Time for an update!!!

I had to share with my friends and Bono family some updated pictures on everyone!!! As most of you know we are headed off to the beach tomorrow morning and this is the crew that Steve and I will be playing with. LOTS of children. This may make or break us wanting to have children sometime this year or early next year. Might just be extra birth control. Although, this is a good taste of what's to come for us one day. hehehe. We love them all very much and love everyone that reads this as well. We are off for a week. I don't think the beach is ready for us Bono's.

How deep the Father's love for us....

How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which make the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory

Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished

I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

He is the one for Me!

I love this man! Enough said.

Brickhouse AM classes

This morning we were working on 'front squats' skills. If some of you do not know this, I have decided to join Brickhouse and be apart of their team.

In making this decision I must get certified by Crossfit in Charlottesville, Va July 10 weekend. This is NOT an easy task nor was it light on the money side. I do believe though this will change my future and health for not only myself but my family one day. To be skilled with Crossfit you must pass a written test and a physical test to their standards.

This means lots of air squats, front squats, overhead squats,push press, push jerk,deadlift, sumo deadlift high pull, medicine ball clean. These are the 9 movements Crossfit is based on.

Being praying now for me please about this and the journey I will be on for the next few months. It's going to get cracking really hard and I may want to give up but I know this opens the door for many options for me. Please please I ask, pray for STRENGTH, pray for patience, to have favor with my trainers and with Crossfit. That everyone may see the difference I can bring to other lives here in Roanoke.

Love
