MiGi's Boutique

Hey Guys!! We are so excited to get our blog back going! It's crazy how finding the time to write for 20 minutes a week is so hard! But we want to get back on it because we love sharing what's going on with us and hope you enjoy reading!! ;)

We wanted to share with you how frustrating our vacation started out! We left Jackson at 6:00 am to fly to Dallas, and our final destination was CABO!! Yes, Cabo! A much needed getaway with our wonderful husbands. However, the delays were INSANE! We arrived in Dallas at 7:30 am with a 5 hour layover. As we were about to board, they announced that our flight had been cancelled. WHAT?!?!? Cancelled, Why?? Ginger and myself have always felt when there comes to a bend in the plan, that God is protecting us from something. So although we were disappointed, we still held out hope for an easy arrival to Cabo. We then spent an hour rebooking flights, and were going to fly out at 4:30 pm to Los Angeles because we would get an earlier flight the next morning to Cabo. So, 4:30 pm comes and they say the flight is cancelled!! WHAT?!?!? Not again!!! This time we were devastated! But I kept thinking about Francisca Batastelli's song, "This is the stuff" And I just felt in my spirit that God was still in control! So the four of us just sat there laughing hysterically. Now what? We, of course, decide to rebook again. We got a flight to Burbank, California where we would arrive at midnight (2:00 am our time). Whoaaaa, long day. Oh and btw, no luggage! :( I'm thankful for a bright husband who got insurance in case something like that happened. We got toothbrushes from the hotel in LA. And then woke up the next morning, and used our insurance money to purchase clean clothes! (Thankfully there was a mall in our hotel with an Express!!) Finally at 2:30 on Thursday we were finally on our way to Cabo. Praying our luggage was all there!


Things like this seem to happen to us a lot. I know God is protecting us from something that we can't see, but our Father above does. I'm so grateful for the setback. It was able to build our character AND patience! So even in disappointment, He's got a plan!!

Tip for the health nuts reading this:
Try the 3-2-1 plan. I read about this in my Oxygen magazine, and thought it was a great way to keep the calories low, if done in moderation.
3 meals, 2 snacks, and 1 liter of water. Try it!!
