Food Diary...Time to be Vulnerable

Ok y'all. (three of you) I am going to start a food diary on September 1st and am going to do it for at least 38 days. I will take pictures of every single thing I eat each day and post them on here. I am doing this so that I can stay accountable to what I am eating and so that I can fit into my bridesmaids dress that I have to wear on Oct 10th. Right now it does not fit, and I am so not going to let that happen. I will also be logging in my exercise for each day and I might be taking a pic of me wearing the dress each day (a back picture of the zipper trying to make its way up) Check back on September 1 to see what I'm eating...I'm not going to lie, its not always going to be healthy, but I'll try!!!

Its been so long!

I feel like I have not posted in forever, but i dont really have anything to post about. We just got back from Austin and had a fabulous time visiting TA and Katherine Ateek. She is about to have her baby and is the kindest pregnant woman I have ever met (Ok tied with Annie Hunt) We had a great time hanging out with them in Austin. We pretty much just ate the entire time. On Sunday we went to hear TA speak at Austin Ridge church. He is the Youth leader there. It was soooo good! He was a great speaker! I cant wait until he is the lead pastor at a church one day...I will say this, and not lightly, he is just as good or better than matt Chandler. I never thought I would say that about anyone, but its true...oh Francis Chan is also just as good or better than Chandler. Our weekend was great. I have no pics at all. I just felt like I needed to update!

We are back, and I'm kind of sad about that

Our trip was amazing. You can read about it and see pics on www.theherringtonsinguatemala.blogspot.com. I miss those kids soo much. We got back last Sunday, but I really feel like I'm finally home and I think its because I'm getting homesick for all my little kids back in Rio Hondo. I think I might try to go back at Christmas time and see if the Garcia's will let me stay with them for a week. I cant imagine going another year without seeing them. I'm trying to figure out what to do with our month there. Im trying to figure out what God wants me to take away from that experience. Was it just a month of loving those kids so much? Or, is it a new future for us? I'm just not sure. I feel blessed beyond belief that I was there with those kids for an entire month, and I cant wait to go back and see them again!
