Jenna, Tracy McGrady & Supercross...

So, last night was my very first experience of going to a Supercross, as well as Jenna's. Jacob and James were wanting to go, so she and I took one for the team and joined them. I have to say that I actually had a really good time. I never thought I would enjoy going to one, but I want to experience new things this year and I was pleasantly surprised.

My little Miss Priss is so into High School Musical, Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, horses and such that she knows nothing about sports or guy things. As we were sitting there watching the first heat of racers, Jenna innocently and seriously looked at me at asked me, "Mom, which one of them is Tracy McGrady?" I busted out laughing and said, "Jen...Tracy McGrady plays basketball!!!" She politely said "Oh" and continued watching the race. Bless her little heart! Atleast she was trying to show an interest in something that her brother loves so much!!!

Jacob never took his eyes off the race. He loves dirt bikes and believes that he is getting one in April for his birthday and is going to start racing! Well, we'll see! He has wanted one since he was 5, I guess we've stalled long enough. I hear overtime in my future!!! I was telling James just this morning that when I look at Jacob I see soooo much potential and amazement. God has blessed him with so many talents that it excites me to think about what he is going to become when he grows up, should the Lord tarry. He is a great musician for his age, he rocks at sports and he is very smart. I look at him and know that his future is limitless provided that he keeps Jesus #1 in his heart and life!

Jacob is officially a "Legend's Dragon". He made their select baseball team this season and we are excited to see what that has in store for him!

Jenna continues to take horseback riding lessons every Thursday and she is progressing very nicely. She "upgraded" to the next horse named Rocky and boy was he a big change. She went from riding an old horse that never wanted to trot, to a new horse that gets excited to trot. She was bouncing all of that saddle. Her goal is to enter barrel racing and poles competitions, so I will definitely keep everyone updated.

In other news, I (with Mom and Rachel) am training with a trainer at Legends. I am really enjoying it, although at times I want to kick him in the chins! He pushes me to do things that I haven't done since high-school softball! I'm talking Crab walk and push-ups amongst many others! I was recently introduced to spin bikes and ellipticals, and I do not care if the machines like me or not, because frankly, I HATE them!!! It is really fun training with my girls, there are times me and mom laugh so hard we can't work out, but Odis still makes us! Rachel has the least amount of weight to lose and I secretly am hoping it takes her a long time so that we 3 can keep working together! Sorry Rae! We work arms on Tuesdays and legs on Thursdays. So, about 2 weeks ago we had an extreme leg workout and I have to say that I could barely walk for about 5 days! I was sooooo sore! Don't really like that feeling too much but I did feel accomplished. After workouts I'll ask Mom and Rachel, "Are you sore here or here?" They usually are too!

I lost 20lbs before I started working out with Odis, and since Odis I have dropped about 3 more lbs, which is in about 3 weeks, but I feel like I am toning and building muscle. I will be tracking my weight loss on this blog to encourage me and others, but also to document my accomplishments.

So everyone be praying for all 3 of us!!! My previous post was about D-World and so James and I made a little wager... If and when I lose 50 lbs total...Disneyworld here we come! So, I have a lot of work to do, but I am almost half-way to Mickey Mouse!!!!
