I'm Going to be on Style Network!!

This afternoon I received an e-mail from my awesome(and pregnant)sister-in-law titled Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!! Just the title of the e-mail brought back some great memories from their wedding. Everything about their wedding was PERFECT, because it was all about them. There was NOTHING traditional except the beautiful dresses and flowers. Even the food served at the reception shouted, "this is Evan and Angie's wedding!!". I was even able to be part of the personalized day. You see, instead of a traditional processional of the bridesmaids and groomsmen, Angie wanted something unique that reflected who they are. Evan, being a Texas country boy at heart had his groomsmen pulled in by a tractor to "Just the Good 'Ol Boys". It was so fun for the guys and got a big laugh by all in attendance. Angie, being the totally 80's girl that she is, had us girls dance up the aisle to "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". That's right, I said dance, not walk. We each had a partner and had to choreograph a dance for our walk up the aisle. I must admit, it was the most fun processional I've ever been a part of.

Ok, on to what Angie's e-mail was about. Actually, I'll just let you read for yourself. Here is what she had to say:
To all of my beautiful girls: Do you remember when I asked you to dance down the aisle at my wedding and you all thought I was crazy......well, you can thank me now because you might just get a moment of FAME.

The style Network in Hollywood, CA hunted me down last night through e-mails and phone calls because they want to feature you girls dancing up the aisle on their show INSTYLES: Most Outrageous Weddings. Now I have signed over all permissions, so they can edit it all they want, and I don't know if they will cut parts or put little bubbles over your heads that say "We're CRAZY" or something. SO early apologies if they do that. Anyway, I don't even get to be in it..because you girls were way cooler :( Oh well, I am excited! SO the show is airing on December 13th at 9 pm (eastern I think). Plan to watch and see if you get your moment of fame as the whole world watches your dancing skills!!!!!!!!!! This is going to be FUN!!!!!!!!! AFTER ALL, GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!Love yall!

So, there you have it!! Can't wait to see what they do with the video. Should be very entertaining at the least!

Sounds so cool. I'll have to watch it, but I don't have that channel. I may have to go to Amelia's house.

Hello My Name is Jamie- Part 4

The day that I made the decision to sit down and begin my moral inventory, will forever be etched into my heart. It was a cold and dreary winter day, much like the state of my spirit. In all honesty, I was DREADING the task at hand. Who in their right mind would want to make an account of every painful memory from the past as well as every sin committed against others?!?! As I sat down at a Starbucks with my favorite flavored coffee beverage in hand, I began praying Psalm 129:23, “Examine me, O God, and know my mind; test me, and discover…if there is any evil in me and guide me in the everlasting way.” I knew that there was pain from my childhood buried so deep that only He would have the power to bring to the surfaces. For so long, I had masked and/or stuffed the wounds in my life, rather than allowing Him to heal them. Within minutes of my prayer, the memories came pouring down like the rain I could hear outside. Just a little side-note, if you ever decide to take a painful j...

Hello My Name is Jamie- Part 5

Sorry for the long delay in this last post…life has been FULL! I want to wrap up this series on my 12 Steps journey by sharing the blessings that have come as a result of surrendering my life and will to my Redeemer(I am skipping ahead to the end). JOY…real joy! I have always been known to my friends and family as a happy person, but my happiness was contingent upon the circumstances of my life. As long as life fit into my little box of perfection and people treated me like I “needed” them to treat me, my joy remained intact. I now know that my joy comes from the Lord. My happiness is no longer tied to people who are going to disappoint me (surprise, they’re human too) or to all of the “stuff” that will happen in life. My joy is my salvation, in the One who paid my ransom! Peace. I can’t help but think of the old song we used to sing at church camp, “I’ve got peace like a river in my soul.”! Those words have REAL meaning for me now. Think about a river. Its path is tumultuou...

Hello my Name is Jamie- Part 2

I hesitantly signed up to attend a 12 Step Recovery Study with a group of women I had never met. Unfortunately, I had pre-judged Celebrate Recovery and the type of people who attended it. I assumed(never a good thing to do) that I was above the issues that required “recovery”. God used the first night with my step-sisters as the first chain in the link of breaking down my pride. I sat in a room of women who were able to verbalize all of things that I was feeling but didn’t know how to express. The Lord had lead me to a group of amazing, strong women who knew exactly where I was at, and loved me just the same. I wept in my car as I drove away from our first meeting because I knew without a shadow of a doubt that I had FINALLY found the place that would strip me of my character defects and draw me closer to the Lord. Until this point, I had lived my life in a cycle of insanity. Insanity has been defined as “doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result ea...
