Quick update on us.

The past couple of weeks we have had some major accomplishments in our house!

First Ariana is officially potty trained! My baby is not a baby anymore.
And Anika learned how to tie her shoes!!
And I finally made them each a baby sling. They see all the mommies at church with them on and they wanted one for their babies. Aren't they so cute. If your daughter wants one just let me know and I will make her one.

Justin has his own route now at work. It is a really neat schedule with only one problem. He is not able to go to church every Sunday. He will be on this route for six months and then will be able to bid on another route. Please join us in pray for God to provide a route were he can have Sundays off and good pay. Each route is a different pay some are more than others. On the route he is on now he has days off during the week. And every third week he has five days off. But he is really missing church and we are missing him coming with us.

Please pray for our marriage. That we grow closer even though he is gone alot. Please pray for a major decision we are trying to make for our family. If it is what God wants (Well I know the bible is clear on what He wants us to do but I don't know if it is a right thing to do right now due to finances). I am not able to tell the decision right now. But hopefully soon.

Thank you for reading about what is going on the Williams' house.

Happy Birthday to ME!!

I am 24 today!!


I woke up this morning with a thankful heart.

The Lord is doing a work in my heart today. He is showing me all the good things that He has given me. I have been experiencing a low time in my walk with the Lord lately. But today He has filled my heart with JOY and HAPPINESS. Today is a turning point in my relationship with the Lord. He loves more than I will ever know. I praise Him for his grace and mercy because through Him is the only way I can spend eternity with Him. I can not get into Heaven without Him. I am thankful that He forgives me and remembers my mess ups no more!!! Praise the Lord for He is worthy to be praised!



I am thankful for my hard working husband! There are no words to describe how thankful I am for him.


I am thankful for my two beautiful daughters! They make me smile all the time.




I am thankful for my mom! She still will do anything she can to help us and is always there when I need her.


I am thankful for my sweet friends. Who love me no matter what.



I am thankful for my church family. I am thankful that the Lord put me in LH because I learn so much from the wonderful body of Christ.


The Lord is awesome and wonderful! And I know that He loves me and I love Him
with all my heart.

I can't believe I miss it!


OK, I think I am insane!

I actually miss my washer!

About two days ago our washer went out. I have always hated doing laundry. But the Lord has taught me a few things now that I do not have a washer.

#1. I hate asking people for help.

#2. What a awesome God he is for allowing me to have a washer.

#3. I don't trust Him like I should.

I have been stressing out about not having a washer. Thankful we know Manny works on washers. So he came over yesterday and checked it out for us. I was hoping it would not be anything big but it was.

It is going to cost $400.00 dollars to fix our washer!! We do not have any extra money to fix or buy another washer.

So this is our prayer request that the Lord would provide!!! And that I would trust that he is going to provide for us.

But while I am waiting for the Lord to provide. I am needing a washer I can go and use. With four people in my home I am needing to do laundry often. And I am in the process of potty training Ariana.

And I know the Lord will provide a washer to use because I have a awesome church body!!

Thanks for praying and helping us!

Selfless Love




I am so proud of my girls.

We stayed home tonight to pass out candy with our hope group. Right before Justin had to leave to work we took the girls down our street to get candy. We went to about ten house.

We started running low on candy to pass out to kids and my sweet girls let me take their candy to give out. I did not take all of it. I had to leave them some.

And then about 9:45 my brother, Daniel, called and asked if I still had candy left. My niece and nephew's mom did not take them trick or treating. And my niece was very upset. I told him no I did not have any candy but to still come over and I would find something to give to my niece, Chloe, and my nephew, Gabriel.

I asked Anika and Ariana if I could give them some of their candy. I told them that their mom did not take them trick or treating.

They said yes.

And then they decided to gave them all THEIR candy!!!

I could not stop telling them how proud I was of them and how happy they were making God.

It was so sweet to see my girls being selfless!!

Even Ariana who is TWO! At two they do not want to share.

I am proud of Anika being a good example to Ariana.

And so proud of them being like Christ to thier cousins.

They just blessed my heart tonight!!

God is Good!! And has blessed me with two amazing little girls!!!




P.S. Sorry no picture of them in their costumes. My camera is still broken so I had to use a disposable camera.

But they were so cute. Anika was a monkey and Ariana was a lady bug.

Update on our family

We have been going through a hard time and still are.

Justin is still not on a regular schedule at work. But please be in prayer that he gets a route soon. There is one route he really wants that is about to go up for bid. Pray that he gets it. It will be really good for him. He will have every other day off and he will also have Sunday off!! And the guy he rides with it also a believer! Please please pray that he gets this route. He has been struggling with temptation while he is on the road. And last night when he came home from this route (the one he wants)he told me he had no temptation. Praise the Lord.

Please pray for me when he is gone. It is at night when he is gone. Pray for our safety at home. And that I can sleep.

Also pray for me I am having a hard time this month. I was suppose to have the baby this month. So it has been hard emotionally for me.

The girls are doing great. Ariana is starting to be rebellious. Pray for consistency with her while Justin is not home. Also pray for them sometimes when Justin is gone they have a hard time with him not here. They miss him really bad.

Please pray for our marriage!! Ask me in person about that.

Please pray with us that God would send an older Godly couple in our lives. And a mentor for me.

Thank you for your prayers and help.

We love y'all!!!

My little business

My new adventures:


I would like to introduce the new way of giving someone a baby gift.


Baby Bouquet:




The one in the picture is a Large.
It contains: 1 sleeper, 1 onies, 1 t-shirt, 1 pair of mittens, 1 bib, 2 hats, 2 pairs of socks, and 2 burp clothes.

Medium contains: 2 onies, 1 hat, 1 bib, 1 t-shirt, and 2 pairs of socks.
Small contains: 1 hat, 1 bib, 1 t-shirt, 1 pair of socks, and 1 onies.

I also make blankets with matching burp clothes. And they can be personalized.

And I make nursing covers that have a rigid neckline so that you can see your baby. It comes with two matching burp clothes. And on the reverse side it has a chenille or terry cloth panel.


Similar to this one:


And I also make Monograms:



And Soft diaper bags. Inside it has several pockets. And it is reversible.






This new for me so I do not have prices yet. But if you are interested give me a call or e-mail me at choctawwilliams4@verizon.net or 979-450-6197.

And I also need help with naming my business. Any suggestions?

Who Am I?




I have been asking myself that lately.

I feel like I have lost myself.

I have lost the things I love to do.

It is hard to explain but I will try.

Here lately I have been feeling I am living I life I did not want to live.

You are probably thinking WHAT?

Don't get me wrong I love being a mom to my girls and a wife to Justin.

I just feel like I am not how I was.

Yes I am a new creation in Christ. But I have lost my passions in life.

Most of you did not know me in high school.

My passions in life were:

Dancing
Singing
photography
scrapbooking

sewing

painting

I have lost the things I love.

I was talking to Justin the other day about this and he said," Ana, you are a mom now."

Then I ask,"Why does it have to change because I am a mom?"

My girls love dancing with me in the living room! My girls love taking pictures! And my girls love to sing!

I just want my life to overflow with my passions that I have. That God put in me. But i can not seem to find a way for this to happen. Please join with me in prayer that God would put things in my life that I can express myself and for time and resources to do these things.

If I do not make sense to you please talk to me in person so I can explain more. I have a hard time typing what I am feeling. I do better explaining in person.

I love taking PICTURES!


The camera of my dreams!!

I am sad to say I do not have a camera anymore. My brothers were letting me use their rebel but they needed it back and then gave it to a friend of theirs. And my small digital camera is broken!! I do not know what happened.

I am so sad.

Anika was in Kidshine is past weekend and I was not able to take pictures of her. And in about two weeks we are going to Oklahoma for the labor day festival and I wanted to take pictures then too. So I think I will just have to buy me a disposable camera. I really do not want to do that because I have been spoiled with my brother's Rebel. The pictures are so clean and smooth.


I hope I can get one soon. Justin said when we can afford it he will buy me the camera of my dreams!!

A few pictures I took with the Rebel:







I really love taking pictures. I hope I can start again soon.

MY SISTER!

Oh! How I love his MOMMY!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAYLENE!!



We hope you have a wonderful day!!



God has blessed us by making you apart of our family!!



We love you so much!!
Words can not even describe how grateful I am to have you as a friend, who is more like a SISTER!!
As a kid I always told mom that I wanted a sister.
But they were done having children.
I longed for that sister relationship.
God loves me so much He gave me YOU!!
I love you KK!!

Our precious Jalyn

Our little Jalyn turned THREE on Sunday!! Isn't he so cute! He thinks he is a big boy now.
He told Jonathan and Carrie he wanted a monkey pinata for his birthday. Poor curious George. The kids had a blast trying to bust him.
Do you see the cute monkey cake Carrie made!!
All the cousins. Jalyn, Ariana, Jon-Micheal, Anika, and EmmaLeigh. We are just missing Bethan and Kirsten ( I am not sure how to spell her name). We had so much fun with them this past weekend. We were able to go see Jon-Micheal do teakwondo. He got a green strip on his belt for knowing all his kicks! We are so proud of him!!
Please pray for Carrie because she is starting to potty train Jalyn. He is doing a really good job staying dry at home.

It's Offical!


Justin is now an employee for New southwest baking company. Yesterday was his last day at coca-cola. He left on his first run today at 1:00 p.m. to San Antonio. He will then come back and sleep and leave for Shreveport at 3:00 a.m. tomorrow morning.



So we need lots of prayer!!


Safety, rest, family time, daily time with the Lord, Church, and a smooth adjustment to the new schedule, etc. It will be crazy for the first 2 to 3 months and then hopefully we will know what his schedule will be like. He is a floater right now so he goes where he is needed.


The Lord has been good to us because he really wanted this job. Praise God for providing!!

I did not want to come home!

We had so much fun at South Padre island. The first thing we did when we got there was went to the beach. The girls had a blast. Anika really did not like the waves so she stayed on the sand and made castles.
It was cool to be there for 4Th of July. We just stepped outside our hotel room and watched the fireworks. It was really cool!
Our sweet girls and my wonderful husband! The girls are dressed for the occasion.

This is my favorite picture from our whole trip. My wonderful husband know I wanted a picture of the ocean while the sun was rising. So he woke up really early and went and took this picture for me.


It only sprinkled one day while we were there. And it rained only one night. We are able to go to schlitterbahn two days. Justin and I got burnt on the first day we were there. But it was all good because we had a blast. Anika loved the rides. Ariana liked playing in the water castle. And we all loved the lazy river. I do not have any pictures of schlitterbahn but I will soon. We took a disposable camera with us when we went to schlitterbahn. I will post them soon.




God was so good to us this past week by holding off the rain! So places around us had really bad flooding. But God kept us dry! Thank you God so much! We had a blast and are planning on going back next summer hopefully with the Carpios!

God is AWESOME!!



God has blessed Justin with another birthday!


He turned 25 on Friday!!


And he had a party at Chuck E. Cheese! We had alot of fun.




This week has been amazing for the Williams' family!

On Sunday last week Justin found out he got the job at new south west baking company.

He left to pre-teen camp on Monday and had so much fun with his boys. He learned alot and wants to go back next year.

He came back on Thursday and we were so happy!!

Friday was his 25Th birthday!!!
And God blessed us with another car today.

God has been very good to us.

And on this coming Monday we leave to South Padre Island until Friday!!!

Praise GOD for he is Good!!!
We also need prayer.
Pray for him on Monday July 9Th he puts his 2 weeks notice in at coca cola. Please pray for our family because his schedule is going to be weird for a few months. Pray for the girls and this adjustment. His first weekend on the job is July 6-8. He will leave Friday at midnight and come home the next day around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. He will then sleep for a little while and then we will go to church and then he will leave again at midnight and return the next day. Pray that he gets rest because he will be working at the bakery on the weekends when he is still at coca cola during his last 2 weeks. Thank you for praying for us.

I am counting the days!

On July 2ND we will leave our home. And we are checking into our room right on the Gulf of Mexico!!

We are traveling to SPI (South Padre Island)!!! Our first family vacation since we added Ariana to the family. We can not wait!!

I know:
Sunscreen
Beach towels
Beach Umbrella (so we do not have to rent one)
Beach chairs or mats

I need help!

I have been doing a study that I got from church when I got baptized.

I just finished it this morning but I need some help understanding this verse I read in the bible.

The study is talking about how Christ desires to direct our lives.

And how we are to trust Him with our lives.

And then it gave me some verses to look up for:

Time (Eph. 5:5-16)

Money (1 Cor. 16:2) On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made.

Abilities (Col. 3:17)

Relationships (Matt. 22:34-40)

Mind (Romans 12:1-2)

Ambitions (Matt. 6:33)

Morality (1 Cor. 6:19-20)

I understood all but one.

I did not understand the money verse.

If someone could give me some insight that would be great!

I am not sure if it is talking about tithes or saving for something else.

New Family Member

We have a new puppy!
His name is PeeWee!! Actually PeeWee #2!
Our first rat terrier got killed by another dog. It was very hard for me because PeeWee #1 was my baby before Anika came only.
And I always told Justin I wanted another one.
And about a week ago my sweet husband pick me up from VBS training with this cute little puppy in the car!
He is very cute but is very scared of everything.
And every time he gets scared he PEES!!
But the girls adore him!

All Anika wants to do is carry him like a baby!!

She is such a little mommy!
