Personal Challenge Day 155-181

GEN 6:21 Thou shalt take unto thee of all food that may be eaten, and thou shalt lay it up with thee: and it shall be food for thee and them.

GEN 6:22 And Noe did all things which God commanded him.

GEN 7:1 And the Lord said to him: Go in thou and all thy house into the ark: for thee I have seen just before me in this generation.

GEN 7:2 Of all clean beasts take seven and seven, the male and female.

GEN 7:3 But of the beasts that are unclean two and two, the male and female. Of the fowls also of the air seven and seven,the male and the female: that seed may be saved upon the face of the whole earth.

GEN 7:4 For yet a while, and after seven days, I will rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and I will destroy every substance that I have made, from the face of the earth.

GEN 7:5 And Noe did all things which the Lord had commanded him.

GEN 7:6 And he was six hundred years old, when the waters of the flood overflowed the earth.

GEN 7:7 And Noe went in and his sons, his wife and the wives of his sons with him into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

GEN 7:8 And of the beasts clean and unclean, and of fowls, and of every thing that moveth upon the earth,

GEN 7:9 Two and two went in to Noe into the ark, male and female, as the Lord had commanded Noe.

GEN 7:10 And after seven days were passed, the waters of the flood overflowed the earth.

GEN 7:11 In the six hundreth year of the life of Noe in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the flood gates of heaven were open:

GEN 7:12 And the rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

GEN 7:13 In the selfsame day Noe, and Sem, and Cham, and Japheth his sons: his wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, went into the ark:

GEN 7:14 They and every beast according to its kind, and all the cattle in their kind, and every thing that moveth upon the earth according to its kind, and every fowl according to its kind, and every fowl according to its kind, all birds, and all that fly.

GEN 7:15 Went in to Noe into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein was the breath of life.

GEN 7:16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in on the outside.

GEN 7:17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth, and the waters increased, and lifted up the ark on high from earth.

GEN 7:18 For they overflowed exceedingly: and filled all on the face of the earth: and the ark was carried upon the waters.

GEN 7:19 And the waters prevailed beyond measure upon the earth: and all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered.

GEN 7:20 The water was fifteen cubits higher than the mountains which it covered.

GEN 7:21 And all flesh was destroyed that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beasts, and of all creeping things that creep upon the earth: and all men.

GEN 7:22 And all things wherein there is the breath of life on the earth, died.

GEN 7:23 And he destroyed all the substance that was upon the earth, from man to beast, and the creeping things and fowls of the air: and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noe only remained, and they that were with him in the ark.

GEN 7:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.

GEN 8:1 And God remembered Noe, and all the living creatures, and all the cattle which were with him in the ark, and brought a wind upon the earth, and the waters were abated.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 64

This picture was the first trip Alex took me after I made the move to WA. This was in a little town called Leavenworth WA which is a little German town about 4 hours from Everett. They were having a little Beer Fest that weekend and we were like cool because we can have a little bit of fun trying new beers but unfortunately they closed it early, so there went that idea. As you can tell, Alex isn't used to German Beers and he was feeling it even though he just had half of one when I took this picture. I love you baby.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 63

This was at the karaoke place that we would go to on a regular basis in WA. If you weren't sure where to find us then all you would have to do is go Hunan Palace in Everett WA. We had lots of memories made there and I don't know if we will ever make another trip back there, but if we do then we are going to make it a point to go.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 62

As Kristy said in her comment this is Roy. This is another friend I made that night with the meeting of Kristy and Danny. I don't know what happened to him, but you know what I am sure he is doing well. If we are meant to keep in touch, then our paths will cross again soon in the future.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 61

I made a really good friend that night along with a sister to add to my family. As I stated in the caption before this one, things have changed for all of us since these were taken, but you know what. I wouldn't ever change the day I met you guys. I love you know matter what Kristy and I can't wait to hang out with you again.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 60

This was the night that I met Danny who is Alex's best friend for the first time. They have been through so much together and honestly I know things have changed since this picture was taken I wouldn't have it any other way buddy. I miss you and we hope that we can hang out with each other again real soon.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 59

This was my Filet Mignon that I had for dinner that night. It was absolutely delicious and well worth the month and time it took to cook. Yes it was cooked to order because I have cooked this before myself and it took quite a bit of time for me to get my food. The ambiance and the awesome company I had that night made up for it though.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 58

I know you are probably wondering why did I take a picture of his dinner that night. Alex was actually really impressed by the Pork Chops that he had that night. In fact, there are two things on this plate that he has never tried before that he really liked. They are lentils and asparagus. I keep on forgetting to make both of these for him, so maybe I will make them for him when he gets back. What a great night for some awesome memories.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 57

This was taken the night we celebrated Valentine's Day at dinner. I have mixed feelings about this picture, but Alex likes it so I thought I would post it. We never did make it back there for dinner before we moved, but with my knew opinion on life, you never know what life will bring you. We have so much available to us out there, you just have to know when and where to look.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 56

This is an awesome picture of my best friend and soul mate Alex that night. Yes, he might not be the most perfect guy that any one could fall in love with, but you know what he is my knight and shinning armor. I know I might say otherwise on some days, but you know that is life. I am not any where perfect and he knows that, so I don't expect anything better than what he can give me. I am hoping we can have more of these kind of dates in the future because it was very memorable.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 55


This was a very special night for me. Over the years I have heard about the restaurant up at the top of the Space Needle in Seattle WA. This was the belated Valentine's Day Dinner that he took me to that year. I was amazed of how he wanted to take me there and didn't argue with me. I didn't get a chance to take many pictures because the view we had that night was absolutely gorgeous. If you ever get a chance to spend a meal up there, then I have one thing to say. It is very worth your money and make sure you spend ti with your someone special.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 54


I am really not sure where this picture was taken. All I can remember is that it was taken on the road trip that Alex and I took on the way back to WA. Alex is not too fond of flying and I have gotten to let him deal with it his way, so when he came down to visit me when he was proposing he drove his Honda down. I have to admit when we have been on the multiple road trips we have seen some really pretty sights. I will never take any of them back accept for when we were arguing over stupid stuff. Heck if we didn't do them, then I would have never been able to share this picture with you.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 53

These are the two guys I was talking about in the previous picture. I don't know Tyler very well and I really wish I could get to know him well. He is my cousin Ray's son and my cousin Ray passed away a couple of years before Alex and I got back together. I know there is so much that I could say about these two, but you know they know what they mean to me that I really don't have to say it to them. Love you guys and you know how to get a hold of me if you need me to.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 52

This picture was taken of us at a place called Lazy Dog Cafe in Huntington Beach. We were lucky enough to be able to take a trip down there during his visit to CA when we got engaged. We were having lunch with Michael and Tyler my two awesome cousins that I wish we could spend more time together. I haven't seen this picture of the two of us in a very long time and remember this being taken like it was yesterday. I miss parts of CA, but not all of them because of the BS that comes with living there. Hopefully one of these days we will be making a trip back there really soon to visit. We just have to figure out when we can make it happen.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 51

Well I might not always see eye to eye with these two guys, but you know what we have been through so much over the years. I would take some of them back, but not all of them. Especially with what I have been through since this picture was taken, I have learned everything happens for a reason. I love these guys both a lot and I am truly blessed to them in my lives.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 50

Wow, so much happened that weekend which happened to be Xmas. First I got engaged and then I saw my cousin Stephanie for the first time in so long. I am so blessed to have her and my cousin Tiana in my life. Both of you ladies have made Grandma Jean so very proud of you guys and I am pretty sure she is smiling down on you every day. I love you ladies and can't wait to see you guys again really soon.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 49


This picture was taken right after we had dinner at the restaurant where Alejandro proposed to me that night. I knew that it was going to happen that day because he gave me the ring to carry in my purse and we were checking on it every chance we got that day, but when the time came I couldn't help it. I was so nervous and wanted it to happen already he didn't even get a word out that he wanted to say before I could say yes and just put it on my finger already. I was so happy that day and couldn't help smiling for the rest of the time we were together that Xmas time.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 48


I love the look on my sister Cyndy's face in this picture. Not a lot of people know this, but she really doesn't like anything to do with guns. Bryan looks like he does this on a regular basis and is acting like it is a piece of cake for him.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 47


This is a great picture of Alex and I. I know I got this from the website and it isn't my work, but you now what. I don't think the scores were correct on this photo because I could swear I was kicking his butt, but my score would tell you differently.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 46

There are actually 3 people in this picture. You can barely see the arm of Bradley in this picture. I believe we were in the very long line for It's A Small World in this picture. For some reason, we always torture ourselves and go on this thing even though while waiting in line for the ride you can learn the song in it's entirety. We love you guys.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 45

I love this picture of these two wonderful people in my life. Yes they are wearing each others glasses and I love their sense of humor. Bryan, you had my heart the day I met you in Michigan for our cousin Courtenay's wedding. I will never forget that day and I love you so very much. We made so many memories that weekend and to share one very special moment with you and Cyndy made the wait that much better. Love you guys both.

P.S. I forgot to mention the fact that this was Bryan's first trip to Disneyland in the states. I will never forget the story of your dad at Euro-Disney. What a great time. Bryan, are we there yet?

Newest Photo Challenge Day 44

This is one of my favorite pictures of my big sister Cyndy and I. We might fight like cats and dogs now and when we were growing up, but you know she is always there for me no matter what. I love you sis and I will always remember the day I got engaged to Alejandro Orne because you were there to share the day with me. Love you big sis. One thing that I was able to keep away from every one for a long period of time was the fact that she was going to be getting engaged the same weekend I was going to be engaged. I can't think of a better Xmas gift for our parents.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 43

This was the day that Alex and I went to Disneyland for the first time together since the day we met in 1993. The little boy in this picture would be Bradley. This was his first trip to Disneyland. I can't believe how fast time flies since we have been together. Bradley could be carried easily at this age and is now way too big for me to carry him for a long period of time.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 42

I know I look so much happier than Alex did in the picture before this one. Yes he thought I was crazy, but you know what he loves me no matter what right honey. Lots of memories were made that weekend and I am so looking forward to sharing with you guys the stories behind some of these pictures.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 41

Yes he does look very cold in this picture and he was so cold outside when standing out there. I wanted a picture of him standing in it while it was snowing and he wasn't too thrilled about it at first. I did allow him to have a cigarette since he was being such a good sport about it.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 40

This is what we woke up to the day after Alex took me up to the Ski Resort 3 hours away. Yes that is his Honda being covered by snow. We didn't get as much snow as we saw up in the mountains, but it did put a nice blanket on the car and on the ground.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 39


There were a couple of things that I absolutely can't forget about that particular weekend. One of them being that it was the first time Alex lit a fire for us in the fireplace. The most important part was the fact that I got to be able to spend the weekend with him. I got to see some really pretty parts of WA that weekend and wish we could go back there, but it doesn't look like that is going to be possible.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 38

Now my turn to lean on his baby. I love the fact that regardless of me thinking that he loved this car more than me. I know that is not the case now. This was taken almost 4 years ago and he tells me he would rather have me than the car to spend the rest of his life with by his side.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 37

This was taken right before we were to finally take the chains off his Honda Accord. I know he missed his baby so much and I know there will be one day he will be able to get it again. It will be a lot better when we do get it and we will make sure that no one will ever be able to steal it again.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 36


It just serves him right for almost dropping that snowball on top of my head. After we got the picture before this one taken, we went to leave and almost got stuck in the snow embankment. We weren't so lucky at this time to have our SUV that we have now, so if we did get stuck, then we would have had lots of fun trying to get out of this mess.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 35


The guy that was taking this picture was giving me a rash of you know what that I am a Steelers fan and I also didn't realize what Alex was doing until after I started feeling the snow melting on top of my head. Lots of fun and that is why I love him so much.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 34


I got him to stop on the side of the road so we can get a picture of us together in the snow. We didn't know any one, so we were able to get a really nice person who was riding snow mobiles in the snow.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 33


This is one of the ski runs at the Mt. Baker Ski Resort. I don't quite know which one this was, but you know you wouldn't catch me dead on any of the runs they had at the resort. Alex was a good sport and was happy to enjoy the view with me for a little bit before we turned around and went back home. Okay I don't like the snow for the most part. It is really pretty, but it hurts like you know what when you fall on packed snow.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 32

Okay this was taken right after I fell in a hole that I didn't see on the mountain. Alex was kind of mad because we drove for 3 hours in this weather and all I wanted to do after we got there was go back to his place. I fell quite a bit of times just trying to walk on the snow let alone even try skiing which was what he wanted to do.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 31

This was taken when we finally got up to the Ski Resort on Mt Baker in Everett, WA. Alex was having to help me walk on the snow because unless you have done it before it isn't as easy as it looks.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 30

As you can tell I am now in the same location he was in the previous picture. It wasn't too cold where we were for a couple of reasons. One we were bundled up as you can tell and two I had him to keep me warm. I think ironically enough, that weekend I found my Steelers jacket of all places considering I was in WA and the Seahawks from WA lost to them that year in the Super Bowl. I was one happy fan that weekend and got it for an awesome price.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 29

This is on my favorite pictures of Alex that Thanksgiving weekend. A lot of people ask me where this was and I tell them up in Steven's Pass in the state of WA. I was always bothering him to take me to see snow and since they already had some snow up there he took me.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 28

This is was me on the ferry that weekend of Thanksgiving when I went up to spend time with him. We are both not really into turkey and still aren't, so we celebrated Thanksgiving our way. Nothing special to make, but lots of fun spending time together.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 27

This was taken on the ferry out of Bremmerton, WA over the Thanksgiving weekend on 2006. Alex had to work that day so I flew up the night of that day and had a wonderful time. I forgot why we were on the ferry, but you know what. I don't care because it was a beautiful site to see on the bow of the ship. Alex took this quite often to and from work which saved us not so much time, but a headache in traffic on daily basis.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 26

This was taken right before Alex took me to Santa Monica Pier for a date night since he was leaving to go back to WA since his leave was going to be over soon. I didn't get any pictures that night besides this one, but we saw some really pretty sites and enjoyed being with each other.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 25


I can't believe I actually posted this one on here. I look absolutely gross and not attractive, but heck we were having fun.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 24

This was also taken at the same place. This is Alex and I being ourselves just goofing off. I know it might be childish, but heck we are kids at heart.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 23


This was taken at Lake Balboa in the Encino, CA area that people go to quite often on a nice fall or spring early evening. It is a man made Lake, but I absolutely love it because it gives people a chance to see some animals that you would normally not see in an Urban Environment like this particular part of the San Fernando Valley.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 22


This was an amazing site for myself to see and hear. This Humpback Whale was doing something really neat during this trip. He did do what is called Breaching which is when they jump out of the water and splash back down in in the water multiple times, he also did what you see in this pictures. He would take his pectoral fin which would be what is your equivalent of your front arm, and slap it on the surface of the water. On top of that, he was singing and since he was so close to the surface you could hear his song so clearly. What a trip to remember for both of our lives.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 21


This has to be my favorite picture that I took on our whale watching trip the weekend we were in Monterrey. I took some other amazing ones, but they don't compare to this one at all. I want to blow this picture up and hang it up somewhere in our place, I just don't where and I would put it.

Newest Photo Challenge Day 20

This is us in the cabin of the whale watching ship that we were on when we went on for my birthday weekend in Monterrey. Yes Alex complaining about it being going on for so long, but it was so worth it.

Personal Challenge Day 136-154

GEN 6:2 The sons of God seeing the daughters of men, that they were fair, took themselves wives of all which they chose.

GEN 6:3 And God said: My spirit shall not remain in man for ever, because he is flesh, and his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.

GEN 6:4 Now giants were upon the earth in those days. For after the sons of God went in to the daughters of men and they brought forth children, these are the mighty men of old, men of renown.

GEN 6:5 And God seeing that the wickedness of men was great on the earth, and that all the thought of their heart was bent upon evil at all times,

GEN 6:6 It repented him that he had made man on the earth. And being touched inwardly with sorrow of heart,

GEN 6:7 He said: I will destroy man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth, from man even to beasts, from the creeping thing even to the fowls of the air, for it repenteth me that I have made them.

GEN 6:8 But Noe found grace before the Lord.

GEN 6:9 These are the generations of Noe: Noe was a just and perfect man in his generations, he walked with God.

GEN 6:10 And he begot three sons, Sem, Cham, and Japheth.\

GEN 6:11 And the earth was corrupted before God, and was filled with iniquity.

GEN 6:12 And when God had seen that the earth was corrupted (for all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth,)

GEN 6:13 He said to Noe: The end of all flesh is come before me, the earth is filled with iniquity through them, and I will destroy them with the earth.

GEN 6:14 Make thee an ark of timber planks: thou shalt make little rooms in the ark, and thou shalt pitch it within and without.

GEN 6:15 And thus shalt thou make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits: the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

GEN 6:16 Thou shalt make a window in the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish the top of it: and the door of the ark thou shalt set in the side: with lower, middle chambers, and third stories shalt thou make it.

GEN 6:17 Behold I will bring the waters of a great flood upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, under heaven. All things that are in the earth shall be consumed.

GEN 6:18 And I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shalt enter into the ark, thou and thy sons, and thy wife, and the wives of thy sons with thee.

GEN 6:19 And of every living creature of all flesh, thou shalt bring two of each sort into the ark, that they may live with thee: of the male sex, and the female.

GEN 6:20 Of fowls according to their kind, and of beasts in their kind, and of every thing that creepeth on earth according to its kind; two of every sort shall go in with thee, that they may live.
