King Kones is on hold....

Hello everyone!

Well I can't chat long, just wanted to update everyone on what is going on.  We have had to put the snow cone stand on hold for a bit.  My hubby had a heart attack yesterday and is currently in CCU.  So prayers are definitely appreciated.

For those that don't know, my hubby has been sick 14 out of the 15 years we've been married.  I'll just name a few so that you get an idea.  Diabetes, Hypertension, Renal Failure, Had kidney transplant and then it failed, Two eye surgeries due to torn retinas.....Anywhoo...too many to list.  He's never had to have open-heart surgery Praise God!  But this is his 7th heart attack.  He has had several stints and balloons to help the heart.
Yesterday was two more balloons.  And he's only 49 years old. :(  Even through all of this I'm so blessed to have this wonderful man in my life!  Thank you God!  I will cherish every moment!

So.......... yes, it's hard at times.  I'll try to update everyone later!~  Thank you for the prayers!  Have a blessed day!

What can I say?

Wow...
Well it's been interesting to say the least!

The Snow cone stand is up and running! Still learning as we go, but at least its a "GO!"
I promised pictures so here it is!


Yep! It's ugly I know! But will have to do for this year! Business is slow, but expected. I pray...No I know, that business will pick up further into the summer months and as the weather gets hotter! It is a huge relief to get all that "crap" out of my house! It looks somewhat functional again! I can see my floor again! :)


Here is the side of the stand closer to night time! I will say that the pink is growing on me. I still think it's ugly, but it is growing on me. One thing I can say is the kids love the color! :)

Eddie is running the stand usually from 3-9pm. I do worry about him and have found myself staying at the stand in case he needs me. Well, last week after working all week and then hanging out at the stand ....just about killed me! I'm too old!

I know I'm going to have to let him tend to it. It is his baby after all! :)

Hopefully now that the stand is open, I can have more down time, and not worry so much about things. I pray that I will have some peace very soon. I thank God for blessing me with all that I have! I know I'm not deserving!

I'll keep you posted!~

Birthday...

Well after much consideration, I will have to finally admit...I turn 40 today. I thought about just telling people that I am 39 and holding! ;)

Spring break is over, school is starting up again. It's kind of hard to get Josh focused back on school work. Honestly, it is probably harder for me than him!

My hubby and I and the family are working hard at getting the snow cone stand up and running.
We had set a date of April 1 to be open. Hopefully it will be around that date. Oh, for those who don't know, we bought a snow cone stand last year. It's called King Kones. We bought it from an individual. We have decided to leave the name the same. We are going to set up the trailer by our church. It's bright pink! I'll post some pictures soon! The individual we bought it from has some scriptures written on it in children's handwriting. We decided to leave all that the same. So either this weekend or next, I will be practicing with my expert snow cone skills! Bahahaha!

Wish me luck! ;)
