Why don't guys want to catch the garter?!?!

GUY QUESTION OF THE MONTH!
What is it about guys these days, that they like FREAK OUT about catching the garter?!?!

Last year, I went to my friends wedding and ALL of us girls were like FIGHTING to get the bouquet!!!

And of course, MUCH to my DISAPOINTMENT, I didn't catch it... as usual!!! Ugh! I just WANNA CATCH IT LIKE ONE TIME!!!!

.

Meanwhile, it was the guys turn to catch the garter...so the groom...gathers all the RELUCTANT single guys together and SHOOTS off the garter, flying through the air...I watch from across the way as it flys and lands RIGHT at their feet!!!! AND what do they all do?!?!? NOTHING!!! NOTHING!!! NOTHING!!! They just STAND THERE, staring at it like....why would I want to catch it?!?! I'm like come on...what happened to the MANLY fights over that thing?!?!? Sooooo you know what I DID?!?! Oh yes, thats RIGHT!!! I go flying across the way...over to the guys and SNATCH IT UP!!! They didn't even care...they're all laughin and stuff..I'm like you know what...THIS IS THE CLOSEST chance I GOT!!! LOL!

.

So this SAME thing has happened at ALL the Apostolic weddings I have been to this year. THE guys don't want to catch the garter! AND I thought it was JUST an Apostolic guy thing, but I was at a cRaZy weddin several weeks ago, helpin my bro and his wife for their photgraphy and THE SAME THING HAPPENED...all the guys...reluctantly went to the dance floor...and they ALL just stared at the garter...lettin some little punk boy pick it up??!?! WHAT'S up with that guys?!?! I've been to weddins before where guys were ready to KILL each other for that thing! WHATS HAPPENED TO THAT?!?!

.
SOOOOOOO the question of the month is...

Why don't guys wanna catch the garter?

*Not ready for marriage!!!!

*Don't wanna touch that NASTY thing!!!!

*Embarrassed!!!

*Scared about what girl is gonna catch the bouquet!!!

*I would try and catch SOMETHING, if it wern't a garter!!!!
*I don't know what your talkin about...I ALWAYS try!

*I'm to busy eatin cake to care!!!

.

WHY?

Poll to vote is on the RIGHT side of THE BLOG!!!

------------->

Do guys hate ruffles on girls?

That is the question that we all have been pondering, since THIS (Click on THIS to read the post)post several weeks ago. So for about 20 days guys have had the opportunity to vote on weather or not they like ruffles on girls. Now I personally LOVE ruffles...however, I do agree with the guys, that to SOME degree it can get a little out of hand...and girls just look DUMB...but then again, I also think it depends on the girl thats wearing it...cause I have friends that look ADORABLE in stuff that would make me look like shamu dressed as a clown...LOL! Basically, LOOK in the mirror AND if you like what you see, then WEAR IT GIRL! (I would say ask the oppinon of a family member...BUT, if I did that I would ONLY have ONE shirt, a blue plaid one that my brother actually aproves of, so I'm just like WHATEVER!!!) 

.

So WHAT were the results?!?!

19% Said YES!!! they hate them!

29% Said NO!!! they don't hate them

9% Said they DON'T CARE!!!

4% Said They secretly hate them!!!

29% said IN MODERATION

9% said YES! they love Ruffles the chips (That was probabley my brothers!;)

YAAAAAY!!!

Ruffles WIN!!! ;)

HAHA!! Me and Denae EVEN got Bishop Abbott's vote on the matter!!! LOL Denae said she asked her dad that Sunday morning if he liked ruffles on girls? She said that he was like, "I don't know!" and just kinda looked at her with a funny look! HAHAHAHAHA!!! I was laughing SOOOO hard when she told me this! So we put his vote in the, "Don't Care!" section. LOLOLOLOL!!!

.

I think I wanna marry a guy that "Don't Care!" to be honest!!! It seems kind of wierd to think of a guy as ACTUALLY liking them...BUT at the same time, its ANNOYIN if they just HATE em!!!

I mean, I don't HAVE to have ruffles, but I also don't wanna, NOT have them either! LOL!!!!

.

A new question and poll for, "THE GUYS" will be posted on Sunday!

If "THE GUYS" have any random questions for, "THE GIRL'S...

PROUD Auntie Moment!!!

MJ made me feel SOOOO proud and HAPPY! She told me the other day, that when she gets BIG, she wants to  help bring the African kids to church. I felt such sparkles of joy in my heart when she said that...

Because THATS where MY ♥HEART♥ is

 and it's good to know that there are other's that feel it TOO!!!!

I LOVE you MJ!

ALWAYS REMEMBER

 That you can be ANYTHING and EVERTHING ... GOD wants you to be!

We try...

Have you ever noticed that we as humans try SOOOO hard...TO HARD sometimes...to figure life out! I was teaching my bible class last week about trusting in God. As I was teaching and preparing a lesson for them...it was like God literally gave me my own lesson as well. For my lesson I did on object lesson with them about trust. I blindfolded them, then led them around the church as I did my bible lesson. It was kinda dramatic and they were freaked out cause they couldn't see what was going on around them. They were like, "Mary, Mary, MARY!!! We're scared!" And I was like, okaaaaaay there is like NOTHING to be scared of...because I could see and I knew EXACTLEY what was going on around them. They were fine and nothing was gonna happen to them as LONG as they stuck by ME!

.

Well when I was done with the bible story, I said, Ok girls, now you have a choice, you don't HAVE to follow me anymore, if YOU want you can just try and get back to the class by yourself...but YOU HAVE TO STAY BLINDFOLED!!! They were like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Take us MARY! As kids, they KNEW that it only made sense for them to get back to the classroom by TRUSTING me...the one that could see!!!

.

Sometimes I try SOOOO hard to figure out my life, and it's like WHY?!?! I really HAVE NO idea what's gonna happen next and YET, I spend SOOOO much time trying to figure it out! But the truth is that on my own, I find myself stumbling around....FRUSTRATED... Cause I'm blinded to the future...We don't always know what's gonna happen next...BUT God can see. He knows the beginning to the end. He knows everything that is gonna happen...we just have TRUST HIM! All those times that we're scared and confused about what is going on around us, GOD CAN SEE!!! It doesn't matter WHAT happens in life, as long as you stick with Jesus...Everything is gonna be alright! We just have to let go of our own will, the unknown wonderings of our lives and LET THE ONE THAT CAN SEE  lead us.

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart.

Lean not unto thy own understanding.

My San Diego Admirer!!!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel....When I was in San Diego...I discovered that I had an ADMIRER!!!

Like AWWWWWWW I feel sooooo SPECIAL!

Your famous BABY!!! ♥

INTERESTING!!!

Oh course I would...

Okaaaaaaay so i've NEVER liked fish or ANY kind of seafood. When I was a little girl my mom would cook it and MAKE me eat it! I would like gag, hold my nose and force little pieces down. It was a VERY dramatic process and my mom finally gave up trying to get me to like it!!!! Well, I was reading in this book called, Picture Perfect Diet, that you should really try to like NEW things. Even those things that you have never like before. Broaden your horizons and TRY to like them little by little. Well since fish is like THE HEALTHIEST thing for you, according to my doctor, I decided to TRY shrimp at Red Lobster. So i did and I actually, really kinda liked it. Okay, like, yeah it was the coconut shrimp and I covered them in the pineapple sauce stuff... but still...I ate FISH!!! So I start little by little eating shrimp and tryin to eat it healthy like. Soooooooooooooo I come to find out that...

Shrimp is the most UNhealthy seafood!

The Highest in cholesterol!

I 'm like what?!?! How can this be?!

I was TRYIN sooooo  hard!

OF COURSE, I would have to PICK the unhealthy stuff!!!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

But Mmmmmmmm....Red Lobster's Coconut shrimp is Mmmm...mmm...DDDDdelicious!!! ;)

Did you use that?

I come walkin out of the bathroom at Chick-fil-A this one time with my youth group...So I use the bathroom and come out and Micheal, one of the guys who is usually on the quieter side, is like, "Did you just use that?" I'm like, "uh, Yeah!" So he is like you used THAT bathroom? I'm just like thinkin, okaaaaaaay enough questions about my bathroom use! I'm like kinda attitude, "Uh yeah, I used that bathroom! WHY?!" He very simply & calmly says, "Because, thats the Men's." AHAHAHA! I was like, OMW! I can't believe I just went into the MEN'S room AND used it without even realizing it!!! We were all like HYSTERICAL laughing! Then I was like... HEEEEEEY! Thats why there was a urinal in there!!!
.
My brother was like, WHAT?! You mean to say that you ACTUALLY saw the urinal and didn't realize it was the men's bathroom!?!?!? I'm like, "NOPE! I saw it and thought to myself, hmmmm thats kinda odd to have in the woman's bathroom......like okaay ...whatever...People these days are just SOOOOO weird!!!"AHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Total Classic Mary Moment!!! ;)

Note to ALL girls...

So today at our church yard sale, my pastor comes out with unity candle set and says all sarcastically, "Hey Mary! Why don't you get these and save them for YOUR WEDDING?" I look up at them and am like...HA! I DONATED those from the one that never happened! LOL! THEN, we're all going through the decorations in the ladies storage room, and like EVERYTHING my pastor's wife would pull out I would be like oh yup that was mine...oh that was from Shashasha's weddin that didn't happen...something else oh MINE...Oh thats Shashsha's... Finally my pastor's wife's just like for everything... OKAAAAAAAY who's wedding that NEVER happened?! We were like laughing soooooo hard!!!! And we decided to give this message to all single girls that THINK they are getting marrried...

DO NOT BUY WEDDING STUFF UNTIL LIKE....

THE NIGHT BEFORE YOUR WEDDING!!!!

 HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! ;)

My kind of Sushi!!!

Why...

Have you ever just wondered WHY?! Why does God allow some things to happen. I lay in my bed one night and could help but wonder why? Why did God not allow for my girl to live with me forever? Why did she have to go back to her home? She was an 10-year-old Liberian girl, that had come to live with me for several months. We were so close to each other. We loved each other SOOOOOO much...WHY did she have to leave. After only two months we were attached to each other, like we had ALWAYS been together. But more important than just our love for each other, was her love for God. She loved God so much. She was living for God with all her heart...WHY couldn't she have stayed with me?! Now, I look at her, and she is a completely different person and even though I know that she is making her own choices, I ALSO know that the environment does make a difference. I know that if she had stayed with me she would have chosen the live for God...I just know that she would have...because she had changed. I had seen it!

.

So I just lay there, beneath my zebra print sheets, sobbing and askin God WHY?!?! Why would you take away such a good thing? It just doesn't make any sense...I just don't get it! But as I was crying myself to sleep that night...God spoke to me. It wasn't in an audible voice, just a thought that went through my mind before I drifted off to sleep...Because of the Africans. I'm like, Huh? Because of the Africans. I'm like I don't get it, she's African herself. And then...But I didn't just call you to her, I called you to all of them. Suddenly, I felt such a relief and such a peace, cause as soon as he said that, I KNEW that he really did have a reason.

.

When God said I didn't just call you to her, I called you to all them, I understood what he mean. I'm a very passionate peroson and when I love someone, I love them with all my heart. They become my total focus and I will do anything for them. I will give anything up for them and I will fight for them. And thats the way I was with this girl. I knew that if she stayed with me, things would become hostile with her family, making it difficult to go over there, but I didn't care, I was willing to give that up if it meant takin care of her forever. Plus, havin her gave me less time to spend with the others, because I had to focus on her. As I thought about it, I know that if she had stayed with me, I would have eventually stopped goin over there all together to pick kids up for church or anything that we do over there. "I didn't just call you to her"

.

In fact, there were times that I remember after that, that I was so discouraged and just sooooo ready to give up, but I would push people to go over there with me, just for the chance to see her again. There were times when me and Jac would go over there and there was only ONE faithful 5-year-old girl that would come, but that would press us on. We now have a pretty faithful group that comes...

.

It's not like we've had any kind of huge revival with the African people. Sometimes I still can't fully undersand or comprehend God's purpose or why he allowed that to happen. But I do feel like he wanted me to stay connected with all the African people and not just that one girl. I have a dream and a desire inside my heart, but there is nothing I can do about it, but wait, pray and keep holding on to God's call!

.

So when I see those teardrops falling...

Lord Remind me of my calling...

May I NEVER run from your call!

Don't EVEN...

I'm pretty sure that there is a BIG difference between slavery and ILLEGAL immigration. Illegal immigration is where people want a better life for themselves and their families and for whatever reason(Good or bad) they decide not to wait and go about the process legally, but instead sneak into the United States. Yeah, it's against the law, I don't advocate it BUT...I can't say that I would NEVER do it depending on my circumstances. But no matter, its STILL illegal!!! Slavery on the other hand, was where past Americans, invaded another continent and FORCED people AGAINST their will into our country and then were treated like animals...cattle...sold...beat...raped to concieve more slaves...all human dignity being stripped away from them...uh yeah...I'm PRETTY sure there is a BIG DIFFERENCE between that and the new immigration law. We all take risks in life...I honestly, really don't care if people are here illegally(As long as they are nice people)...but you have to understand the consequences of the choice you made..if its against the law you can't say THE government is RACIST for catching you!!! I can understand WHY people might not like the law...but it's NOT racist and DON'T EVEN COMPARE IT TO SLAVERY!!!!

LPC Diet Moments!

FIRST of all I just wanna say that someone in our church is requesting SPECIAL prayer that God helps them to stick to Weight Watchers this week! I said NO problem...I'll blog and mass email this request for you and while ya all are at it PRAY for me too!!! So start travailin folks! :D


Second, so a group of us,  my fam, my pastor and his LOVELY wife ;), Sam and Janelle, Jimmy, JW, are all at The triple P (Peter Piper Pizza) and we're jokin about like starting like our own Weight Watcher's group at LPC...cause I mean like ALOT of people from our church could join and we could just have like these AWESOMELY ANOINTED meetings! So I'm like yeah THEN we could like have like an Apostolic gym that we could all go work out at...and my brother John is like yeah AND instead of naming it Curves, we'll name it Rolls....BAHAHAHA!!! I seriousley think that would be the AWESOMEST gym name EVER!!! (My brother is sooo FUNNY!)

Can I get amen...

from the amen corner?!?!

So then we're all leavin sayin goodbye and I'm like DUDE Jimmy, I like totally gotta tell you about this like totally AWESOME diet moment I had today, cause I just KNEW he would understand this with me!!! So i'm like okaaaaaaay so today after lunch I told the girls(I was watching two foster girls this past weekend) That I would get the Oreos for a treat. Of course it was GONNA be double stuff oreos, ya know! So we stop at the store to get them and as I'm walking down the cookie aisle at Albertson's, I'm see the Chips Ahoy cookies and I'm like OMW I forgot how GOOD Chips Ahoy are AND they are on sale too so i'm like OOOOOH I gotta get those too! So I carry my two items to the front and wait on line and as I am standin there I see all these magazines with health tips, and then I see my Chips Ahoy and my double stuff oreos and I was like YOU KNOW WHAT I;m gonna make a GOOD decision...and YOU KNOW WHAT i DID?!?!

Thats right ya all...I PUT DOWN THE CHIPS AHOY PACKAGE OF COOKIES AND...

I ONLY got THE DOUBLE STUFF OREOS!!!

Jimmy's like, thats AWESOME Mary! So we fist bump and he tells me his special diet moment today...

He says that he was GONNA go to Cracker Barrel today for lunch and get some fried chicken...BUT instead he JUST went to Quiznos and got a sandwhich...and a soda...and a cookie...the sandwich was a foot long and it did have chipolte mayo on BUT ...

AT LEAST HE DIDN'T have THE FRIED CHICKEN!!!

I'm like Jimmy, THATS AWESOME, I'M SOOOOOO PROUD OF YOU!!!

(Only a fellow fluffy person could truley understand the depth of these kind of diet moments)

If you have a special diet moment... please feel free to share!!!

The Wakefield's...

Then when announcing they said AND the Wakefields have two, very pretty, single, daughters. So when I heard this I was like AW MAN! It had to be two single girls?!

Apostolic Beauty #1

Picking the first Apostolic Beauty was a HARD decision, because I honestly know SOOOO many beautiful girls. This first girl  picked is someone that I know quite well! This Apostolic beauty helps bring kids to church, teaches with her mom the nursery class at church, and she has dedicated her life to working with mentally handicapped idividuals. She is described as someone that  radiates beauty in her giving to God and to all of us.  She is a beautiful example of TRUE FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE!

AND this first Apostolic Beauty is....
.

Drum roll please...

.
My very own big sister

Theresa Elizabeth Ginty
Also known to her friends and family as "Tree" or even just "T"

Aside from all these other things that my sister does...The one thing that REALLY stands out to me is that she is ALSO a single mom. Two years ago this past Sunday, my sister became a foster mom to my neice Mary Jo and her older brother Joe.

I just told MJ before she got on the bus that her mom was nominated THE FIRST APOSTOLIC BEAUTY. When I told her this her whole face lit up and she got the biggest smile. I asked her if there was anything she wanted to say to her mom and she said,

 "I love you and that her mom made her the happiest little girl in the world!"

The other day Theresa and I were having a conversation about singing. We were both talking about how AWESOME it would be to be and incredible singer. To be able to get in front of the church and just TEAR IT UP!!! So then my sister was like, well at least you can write! I don't have ANY talents at all!!! Soooooo we're just sittin there in the car and I couldn't think of anything brilliant to say at the moment bestides... "Ummmmmm...soooo like, where are we gonna go eat?!" But I was thinking about it later on and I just wanna say this to my sister...

.

 What could be a greater talent, than the ability, to take a little unhappy, sad, no personality, quiet,  five-year-old, living in a home where she was locked up in her room, treated like dirt, trapped in a horrible environment, heading to a burning hell and turn her into THE HAPPIEST GIRL IN THE WORLD?!?! You gave MJ a happy home, where she has become little-miss-personality, a total chatterbox and says THE FUNNIEST THINGS! (We NEVER know what's gonna come out of her mouth, like at Food City last night! LOLOLOLOL!) She LOVES God, she tells her friends about him, she sings about him and she is the joy of our lives...

BECAUSE OF YOU!!!

.

Here is your crown Apostolic Beauty

Where it with PRIDE...

 you FIIIIIIINE ITALIAN MAMMA!!! ;)

P.S. The crown is NOT real! Thank google images!

 I woulda had to borrow money from YOU for a real one!!!

BahaAHAHAHAHAHA

Ruffles?!?!

Do MEN like Ruffles on woman?!
 (AND NO, i'm NOT talkin about THE CHIPS!!! LOL!)

So my pastor and his best friend HATE ruffles on girls. They say that they are SOOOOO ugly, it makes them look like clowns and that guys ONLY tolerate it before they get married but they really don't like it. I'm like, I don't think thats true for ALL guys...I think some guys really like them on woman and I think some guys could like CARE less about it!!! Yesturday, all of us girls were talkin about it again when we were sorting stuff out for our ladies blessing boutique and someone held up this ADORABLE black shirt that was like 6 layers of ruffles and said that her husband MADE her get ride of it cause he HATED it soooooo much!!!! I'm like WHAT?!?! Its SOOO CUTE!??!!? SOOOOOO I promised everyone that I would post a poll on my blog FOR MEN about RUFFLES!!! LOL!!!

DO YOU LIKE RUFFLES ON GIRLS!?!?!

OR do you all REALLY SECRETLY HATE THEM?!?!

Poll is on the right side of the blog!
Girls DO NOT VOTE! ;)

Well I can't understand this. These people came to my yard sale. Looked at my stuff, and as HOW MUCH for  a drinking glass. So I'm like 25  cents. They Q:UICKLEY put it down like I gave them some outragousley high price!!! Then they start walkin away like they are just WAITING for me to give it to them for cheaper!!! I'm like OKAAAAAAAAAY...I said a QUARTER!!! You ain't gettin it cheaper than that. JUST keep  your ten cents cause I'll have MORE fun smashin the glass in the ally behind mom's house!!! :)

.

Then there are the people that ask a MILLION AND ONE questions!!! I'm sellin my brothers sunglasses and this guys asks how much? So I'm like 50 cents. So THEN he starts askin me oh are they really? Do they work well? Is that a scratch? Blah, blah, blah! AND i'm just siitin there like...I SAID FIFTY CENTS!!! NOT ten bucks...FIFTY CENTS!!!

I mean...as if it was bad enough the first time...they ACTUALLY come to look at my trash AGAIN! and THEY COME LIKE, OH HI MARY!!! MARY!!! Mary how are you!?!?! I'm like OMW!!! How do thse people KNOW ME?!?!

From my friend's poem "To the guy who" I LOVE this line...
To the guy who looks across the aisle and falls in love with the way she worships...
I would swOOOOn if a guy told me THAT!!! (Well depending the guy...There is always a case that you take the words back! LOL) Awwwwwwww...well there is a whole list of things that my friend wrote but that one I just LOVE!!!

A Haughty spirit...

 Pride goeth before destruction,

and an haughty spirit before a fall.

Proverbs 16:18

.

I've been given this scripture a few times in my life, by ones wiser than myself. I've never really to sure WHY, but I decided to figure out what exactley the word Haughty means. According to Webser's it means; blatantly and disdainfully proud. Sooooo I'm like hmmmmm...I sure don't want to be that way....

WEEEELLLLL....This morning I was praying and as I was praying I said, "God help not to have a haughty spirit!" Then right while I was praying I just BUSTED up laughing!!!! You just have to know ME and MY mind and the way it works. So I'm like, what I'm saying God, is, Don't let me have a Haughty spirit, EVEN if I am a TOTAL HOTTIE!!! AHAHAHAHA!!! Get it?!?! Haughty?! HOTTIE?!?! AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!! Good one Mar! GOOD ONE!!! ;)

Me and God had a GOOOOOD time laughing together!!!

AND you can say I'm SOOOOOOO unspirtiual if you want... BUT...I'm totally sure God thought it was pretty funny too! I mean after all, He is the one that made me, and my cRaZy-HOT-self!!! There is just NOOOOOO way I can take credit for THAT!!! ;)
