Yeah, I know. Lame.
Anyhow, my friend Stephanie put this on her blog. I am a copy cat so I did it too.
What does my keychain say about me?

Lions and Tigers and Bears – oh my!
Yesterday the kiddos and I went to the Amarillo Zoo. They seemed to have really, really loved it! They talked about the animals a lot and they also really wanted to pet all of them. hehe.
I dropped my camera on the sidewalk and busted the screen. However, my little camera (more than a few years old) still took over 100 photos after that. AWESOME!!!! Here are a few of them. 🙂

Hoofin’ it across Amarillo…
The kids and I had a scavenger hunt today. Since we didn’t get to go out of town after all (long story) I decided to try to make our Spring Break staycation as fun as I can. Anyhow, here in Amarillo we have these horse statues all across town. They are part of a community wide art project. There are 90 horses in all. Today, we hunted for nine of them. One was not at it’s supposed location, and another I couldn’t find. 
The seven we found are below. 🙂 We also visited the Panhandle War Memorial. It was pretty interesting. Very sad.

Somedays I am painfully aware that I desire a mate more than anything else in this world.
God, come down and rescue me. Amen.
Life, or something like it…
I haven’t posted a real update of my life in a long time. So, here is me trying. 🙂
The number one change that I’ve gone through in the last six months or so is that I’m now a foster parent. I think I started around August doing all of my training and everything. I was finally licensed in October and had my first children placed with me on November 18. I have a four year old boy and five year old girl that are siblings. Parenting is more difficult than I thought it would be, but I think that is mostly because of the age of the kids. By the ages that they are, kids are already set in their ways and it’s hard to teach them new routines/ways of doing things. Even simple things like bath time are more difficult. I do enjoy it most of the time. Also….though people tell me I’m a really good mom, I do not see that in myself. We’ll see how it goes.
I’ve been at my job now for over two years. I’m not sure if I want to stay with it or not. I’m sure I will for a while; I have no plans to change jobs. I’ve been taking some leadership courses, so I guess that means they think I’m doing a good job. Eventually I want to move out of Amarillo again, but I have no idea where I want to go at this point.
The kids and I were supposed to go to Disney World this coming Friday, but because my car is having some issues that need fixed – I’m pretty sure we’re not going to be able to. That means I need to decide somewhere else to go. People have suggested Six Flags, Colorado Springs, Albuquerque, and San Antonio. I’m looking at all of them, but I’m just not sure yet. I have to make a decision soon, though, so that I can get it approved through my agency.
I’ve dated a couple of guys off and on in the last year, but none of them really working out. I do currently have a crush on someone. However, it’s not reciprocated so I’m not worried about that.
Alexis, Krista and I are co-leaders of More‘s Singles Ministry – LOL: Laughing Out Loud Singles. We have only a few people who attend, but I really think that God will increase that as we are faithful to Him. I think part of the reason we aren’t growing by leaps and bounds is because all three of us are rather….well, not talkative to people we don’t know. I know that for me, I’m really observant the first few times I meet someone and not so talkative. Which is okay, but it doesn’t draw people in. Oh well; God will draw them. 🙂
I’m not sure what else to post, so I’m going to just leave it at this for now.
Be well and be blessed.
Love and Grace to you,
Sara
PS. Here’s a recent photo, just in case you were wondering. 😛
