YYYYYYYYAAAAAYYYY!!!

So if y'all remember a few posts ago, I set up a few incentive ideas for myself in this weight loss journey. One being that I was going to set aside $1 for every pound I lose (so far so good) and when I reach my goal weight, I will do or buy something with that money. I still have not decided what that money is going towards, but I will let you know. 

The other incentive is every time I take off another 10 pounds, I will treat myself to something like download a new cd from itunes or by myself a new Starbucks mug. So when I hit my first 10 pound mark a week and a half ago, I knew what I wanted. I had wanted a couple of pairs of earrings that my friend Katie makes. Katie's awesome and she has her own business (http://www.onedelightfulbutton.com/). Katie and I were on Young Life at the same time and were even roommates for a very brief time. She and her husband, Philip, are now on staff in Massachusetts with their son, Judah, and we miss them here in Virginia Beach.

As I was making myself a shake this afternoon, I saw the mailman pull up with a large envelope and I knew just what is was. The earrings I ordered for Katie! I was so excited! Mostly because I knew I had worked hard to get some of the weight off and that was my reward. And now I have a pair of yellow earrings to my Oregon tshirt! Yay! Thanks Katie! 

Here are some pictures...
