While I now accept Michael and I's duplex as our home and I love our "spread" I can't help but love my home away from home. Michael and I got a break from believe this weekend and returned to Oklahoma to spend the weekend with my parents and siblings.
There is just something magical about only living in one house as a child. I know this house, the smells, the creaks and sounds. The air outside smells different and I can't hear cars or trucks driving by...only the animals that are going about their day. It's refreshing and if there was anything I needed right now it's to be refreshed.
I guess I just need to "make a public statement" to honor my parents in raising us under one roof, even though they had to make HUGE sacrifices to do so....I now realize how wonderful that is.
That's all for now but perhaps while I'm being so "refreshed" more thoughts will come.

Life in the Miyahara Lane....
Here is an update on life in the Miyahara world for all those that actually read this blog, and especially for Travis Long (I hope you enjoy this shout out!)
We have finished two believe events now, one in Anaheim, California and the other in Tulsa, Ok. We had great crowds in both and I am just blown away with how God is blessing the believe team. This 2010 tour really has a great staff and the artists are so much fun to hang out with! Also, a HUGE thank you to all the volunteers that came to help us out at both of those events! We seriously CAN NOT do it with out you all!!
The theme for believe, "The Messiah" is so solid and the speakers are really doing a great job of connecting to the students about how God created us, wants us and want to use us! Such an awesome message! I love it!!
Michael and I are doing well! Believe has definitely been keeping us busy but we love the ministry that takes place and the people that we get to work with. We were married right after the tour last year so it was a pretty stressful time getting ready for such a huge life change and getting ready for the wedding. It is so much nicer to be married now, whew!!
Update on the Turbo Jam work out...well I'm still doing it and I still absolutely LOVE IT! It really is the best work out I've ever done...so much more productive then running or anything else that I have personally tried. Nichole Palmateer one of my best friends and co-workers has also tried it with me now and she agrees...it totally kicks butt!
I'm am trying to get a little business on the side going of baking sweets (Pies, cookies and breads). I guess we will see where it goes. I really do love to bake and I have been practicing A LOT lately!! Michael likes that!
I recently went in to get my hair highlighted and came out with almost completely blonde hair...so that was unexpected and if you know me I don't do very well with unexpected things...but I'm slowly getting use to it. Michael said he likes it.
After this month Michael and I will officially be OUT OF DEBT!!! We are SO excited. It has been really hard but we put everything towards debt and we just have one payment left in February we are DONE!! Thanks Eric Samuel Timm for the advise before we got married!! It's already paying off (pun intended)!!
If you want help or advise on how to get out of debt (car debt, credit cards, school debt...anything!!) we would love to help!! Really....debt is horrible and if your in it...take steps NOW to get out!!
Well, that's all I got for now...maybe I will write more later on this week.
