Again, the Free Shipping offer ends January 1, so if you are looking for your New Years Resolution Solution, be sure to get your order in!

Being that we are beginning a new year, I definitely am excited to prepare a fresh slate for my body. Starting on Jan. 1, I plan to begin the Advocare Herbal Cleanse along with many friends! We are doing it together to bring in 2011 fresh!

Advocare's Herbal Cleanse is a 10-day purifying system for just $31.50. Peaches & Cream is my favorite!

Tyke

Please meet my new boy, Tyke! Tyke is a Dudley Yellow Lab and I am so thrilled to have brought him home today. I was able to rescue him from a family in Atlanta who found him in the pouring rain a few weeks ago and just couldn't keep him. You all know the pain I went through saying goodbye to Hutch and since then, I have wanted to find another dog. Though it makes sense to get a small lap dog, I just kept going back to big labs. 

Tyke is 2 1/2 years old and is desperate for some good care and attention. He is full of energy, but with some training, I think we will be good to go. I think he is just adorable! 

He did not come named and I am not really sure how I came up with 'Tyke' but I thought it was fun and cute, so I went with it! 

I am exhausted after hauling this 85 lb boy through PetSmart, and he is already asleep in his crate, so now it is my turn! 

Independence Bowl & Giveaway Winners!

It's a big day today and I am stoked to have an extra work holiday to enjoy the Advocare events! We are excited to be sponsoring the 2010 Independence Bowl game between my own state's Georgia Tech & the Air Force on ESPN2 at 5pm EST. 

Also, our national spokesman, Drew Brees, Quarterback for the New Orleans Saints has a game tonight against my own, the Atlanta Falcons. I may have to pull for both teams?! 

Lastly, it's a big day because I am announcing the winners of my "700 Giveaway" via a free conference call! I do not think this has been done before so I am just too excited. Winners will be announced at 9:00 pm EST (8:00 CST). 

Call: (712) 432-0075

Passcode: 905897

Anyone is welcome to call and listen-in. Just another way I look forward to communicate with you all on a more personal level.

Below is a commercial for Spark -- take a look! Keep in mind that you only have a few more days to take advantage of my Free Shipping offer before Jan. 1!

Tennessee Christmas

This girl sure was missed this year. She emailed us with updates from Africa everyday! 

This was not my most favorite Christmas, nor will it be the one most memorable. Several reasons contribute to this, but the biggest one of all was not having my sister around. We missed her so much. Second, I was battling a twinge of a stomach virus all week not feeling well at all. Not feeling well leads to not wanting to get ready or dress up at all. Not wearing makeup and clothes not fitting right because you feel sick makes you feel fat.... and so on and so on..... just was a blah holiday. I guess they can't all be fantastic, huh?

Honestly, I sort of escaped for a few days. I turned my BlackBerry off, I escaped from facebook, barely tweeted, didn't do one ounce of shopping, barely read any blogs, barely texted any friends. It changes when the majority of your best friends are married, having kids or are in serious relationships during the holidays. It's ok... I knew it was coming.

All in all, it was an 'ok' week. I was glad to get away for a few days... glad to see my family and spend time with my growing cousins. But at the end of each day, I would retire upstairs early and read and settle in quietly for the night.... not feeling like myself and not really knowing why.

Here are some photos from our Tennessee Christmas. Enjoy...

Since Ash was gone, we got a little doll to 'represent' her in family pictures!

CAUGHT in the Krispy Kreme box! 

They were every bit of good.

We celebrated my grandparent's 50th and my parent's 25th Anniversary this year!

This picture cracks me up -- love my Poppy! 

I hope you all had a wonderful Merry Christmas with your families and loved ones. I look forward to closing out this final week of 2010 and ringing in the New Year next weekend!

Merry Christmas

I woke up to this in the Tennessee mountains this morning! Merry Christmas to you all and remember the reason we celebrate -- Jesus, our Savior, was born! 

700 Followers Giveaway!

Wow! I cannot believe I hit 700 this weekend. I just was at 600 three months ago! Thank you all so much for your support. It blows me away that people even care to read what I have to say or are interested in the small details of my little life. I absolutely love blogging and have met some great friends from this. My Atlanta posse gets growing and they are all gals I met from blogging. We have a ball together! There are also other special blog friends who live far away who I want so badly to meet one day!

So... for my 700 Giveaway, it's going to be a two-part! Keep reading to find out what I mean!

What is Spark, I know you are wondering. In my recent video post, I told you all that I am an Advocare distributor since I have been taking product for several months now and believe so highly in it.. I have seen amazing results. What I love about Advocare, is that it provides a solution for anyone whether that be weight loss, weight management, overall health and daily energy!

I take Spark every morning before going to work. "Windex for the Brain" is how it was introduced to me. Spark offers up to 5 hours of energy and mental focus -- I zoom through my work day!
