And then He Kissed Me.....



5 Years ago I went to General Conference In Utah with a bunch of friends from EAC I say friends now but when we left on that trip I only knew 2 people really Troy and Whitney. Troy had invited me to go after hearing I had never been to Conference before and so we Left I rode with an amazing woman named Kiara and that was the weekend our friendship began. Nieca and Andrienne were among the amazing ladies I also would become friends with on this trip. This to me was a trip of a lifetime for it was on this trip That Kiara said exactly what I needed to hear! I was debating with myself what to do about..Lance McGee this cute guy who kept asking me out and coming over and asking why we couldn't be offical and say we were dating! After leaving conference and on the drive home I knew what I needed to do I needed to see Lance and talk to him! we came home Sunday night and go into thatcher around midnight and my amazing friend Kiara was texting him what I was saying since I was driving hahaha and I asked if I could come by since he was still awake. He said yes. I drove over to his Trailer and was so excited to see him! we cuddled on the couch and I knew he was propably thinking this girl is such a roller coaster! He asked me out on a date for the next evening and I of course said yes! It was October 2 2006 we doubled with his roommate Stratton and Misty ( his wife now), we went potato gun shooting and it was so much fun! I was a little extra cuddly with Lance hoping he would get the clue that I was ready to date him :) That night we talked and I asked him if he was still wanting to date me and he said yeah! and I told him I wanted to date him too! He dropped me off and walked me to my door like a gentleman of course and gave me a look that told me he was going to kiss me! He smiled and Then...He Kissed me :) and we have been together ever since! He is The most amazing,handsome, loving, funny sweet man ever! I am so blessed to be his wife and call him my Husband. He has forever changed my life for the better and I am so happy to have him by my side for all Eternity!

"You're So Hypnotizing.."

I heart Katy Perry! Her music gives me energy on the Tredmill! I have a lot of her songs on my Ipod because Her songs give me that extra energy and motivation to keep going!! Today I thought I would get on the tredmill and not get off till I hit 5k I did this on Tuesday doing hte couch to 5k and just stayed on longer and did it in 55 minutes today I did it in 43 minutes not letting my speed go less than 4...so speed walking..running speed walking running...ect...and the only thing that kept me going was 2 things one Amber my couch to 5k companion who wasn't there but I kept thinking about her and how I needed to do this and Second Katy Perry MUSIC!!!! now I have a huge blister on my heel and the ball of my foot? weird one on each foot how does that happen? I'm starting to think I don't run right or something lol But it was awesome and such a great feeling finishing but I wanted to die! I have a lot of work ahead of me for this 5k in November!!

Couch to 5k

So I have heard of this exercise program/ app thing before my wonderful Sister  in law Allison was doing it a while back didn't think about it much when I decided to get my Fitness on! But to my delight a dear friend Amber emailed me about doing it together for a 5k in November here in Dallas. I can't begin to tell you how much I needed that! I have been motivated but I just wished that I had someone else to do things with me! She too want's to get back into shape and like myself has enjoyed running in the past. I remember in Highschool when I was on the Basketball team we had to get inshape and runnining was the thing Coach always said if we can't out score the other team we will out run them! and she was not lying! I never knew you could run soooo much! but I am soo grateful to my B-ball Coach because of her I fell in love with Running! tredmill or outside don't matter but in life we start to put things on the back burner and I got lazy and what not and have tons of excuses to why I am where  I am and started to pick up my love for running agian and her email was perfect timing! I'm gonna own that 5k come Nov 12th! :)

Forget me not...

Yesterday was the Relief Society Broadcast for the LDS church and it was AMAZING! The words that were spoken that night were exactly what  my soul needed to hear!
The thing that touched my heart the most was Pres. Uchdorf's talk this everything part of it was amazing but these 2 things touched me the most

....Forget not to be happy now. Recalling the children's story “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” President Uchtdorf said people were looking for a golden ticket in a candy bar. Unfortunately, the candy bar itself became an utter disappointment if it did not contain a gold ticket, he explained.
"So many people today are waiting for their own golden ticket — the ticket that they believe holds the key to the happiness they have always dreamed about. For some, the golden ticket may be a perfect marriage; for others, a magazine-cover home; or perhaps, freedom from stress and worry. There is nothing wrong with righteous yearnings."
The problem, he added, comes when a person puts their happiness on hold as they wait for some future event — or gold ticket — to appear.
"The happiest people I know are not those who find their golden ticket; they are those who, while in the pursuit of worthy goals, discover and treasure the beauty and sweetness of the everyday moments." ...

..."Forget not that the Lord loves you. President Uchtdorf said as a child, when he looked at little forget-me-nots, he sometimes felt like that flower — small and insignificant. "I wondered if I would be forgotten by my family or by my Heavenly Father."
To the worldwide audience of Relief Society sisters, President Uchtdorf added, "You are not forgotten, sister, wherever you are and whatever the circumstances
"No matter how dark your days may seem, no matter how insignificant you may feel, no matter how overshadowed you think you may be, your Heavenly Father has not forgotten you. In fact, He loves you, with an infinite love. …
"The love of God and the power of the restored gospel are redemptive and saving. If you will only allow His divine love into your life, it can dress any wound, heal any hurt, and soften any sorrow. "My dear Relief Society sisters, you are closer to heaven that you suppose. You are destined for more than you can possibly imagine. Continue to increase in faith and personal righteousness. Accept the restored gospel of Jesus Christ as your way of life. Cherish the gift of activity in this great and true Church. Treasure the gift of service in the blessed organization of Relief Society. Continue to strengthen homes and families. Continue to seek out and help others who need your and the Lord's help."

For me My golden Ticket is having a Baby as  I was taking notes I put this as my Golden Ticket and how I needed to enjoy every moment I have now. Be happy for what I do Have and not dwell on what I don't. Its okay to have these righteous desires but don't forget about the blessing I have right in front of me....AND then the Last forget not that the Lord Loves you. Often times I have thought that maybe he has forgotten about me..in seeing so many other women having babies and getting pregnant and having another baby I often have wondered If he had forgotten about little ol' me Brittany McGee...and last night answered my question. I am not forgotten. and was reasured that Heavenly Father Loves me and Knows me and who I am. It was a beautiful Broadcast.


LDS church news has an article on it where you can find more about all the talks Here

Working on My Fitness!

Okay so the amazing thing about Addison Texas is they have an Athletic club! In which all you need to do is be a resident of Addison pay a 1 time fee of $10.00 and you have full access to the club! Its a really nice place with a pool, sauna room, steem room, basketball court, indoor track, tons of tredmills, bikes, stairstepper, spinning ect ...... Yeah its awesome! I have no excuse now to not go work out! So last week I started getting serious about working out and eating better! Watching my portions and so forth because I refused to gain anymore weight and know I need to drop a lot of pounds! So I got on the scale today and low and behold I am 7 pounds lighter! yesterday when  I got on the scale I was 5 pounds lighter and that was a huge motivation for me to work out even more and harder so today to see 2 more pounds gone...yeah I'm gonna go get my Work out on! oh and bytheway Music while I'm working out MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE! My Ipod died and  I was freaking out and then my amazing Mother in-law sent me an old one she had! Its been AMAZING!! I got 2G of music on that thing that keeps me motivated on whatever it is I am working out on!  So here's to more pounds leaving me!

When all you need is Music

This is why I love music! When I can't seem to find the right words I find the right songs that can.

Sleepless Nights

I wake up at 5:15AM but yet it's 10:45PM and I can't seem to go fall asleep...I can't seem to shut my brain off.  It is nights like these that when I am lying down my thoughts wonder and usually to my pregnancies and why I can't be a Mom already and how I came so close and how that hurts and how I don't understand why any woman has to feel this hurt or go thru the pain of Infertility and I find myself not just crying for me but crying for the Mothers who lost their little ones way to soon. My heart breaks not only for my own babies but for anyone who is having to live with the pain of infertility and loss. Hands down no contest this whole infertility and mulitiple pregnancy loss is the MOST difficult thing I have had to face in my life. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
 When I start thinking about when we should try agian... I almost feel defeated already like what's the point I will either not get pregnant or get pregnant just to have a loss again!  but even when I start to feel like that my mind reminds me of the feelings I felt when Heavenly Father gave me a tender mercy and reminded me of his love for me. Then  I think of how there is oposition in all things so If I can feel this amount of pain that just means that there will be that much more amount of Joy....or at least thats what gives me hope. Hope that when my Sunday comes It can heal my heart fully and maybe just maybe help me forget some of this pain.  I'm holding on to the  Hope for better things to come.

WHITECOAT CEREMONY!

Well tonight Lance had his Whitecoat Ceremony!! What does that mean you ask? Well we weren't to sure either until tonight! :) So 5:00pm came around and we went to Parker University for their "social hour" before the Ceremony I got to meet a few of Lance's new Family which was awesome.

Then 6:00 came and we all gathered in the GYM and Listen to a few speakers talk about what it means to wear the Whitecoat..ect ect I honestly can't tell you most of what they said cause I was super excited to see Lance on the stage and get his Whitecoat but basicly It's something for them to remeber the code of honors and the student pledge and then once they hit Clinicals they could wear the coat if they wanted too....It was pretty cool! :)


So this is Lance walking the stage to get his white coat!!

This is him with his White Coat on!! woot woot!!
This is Lance during the Student Pledge for Chiro School

This is Lance and his very very Lucky Wife :)

We left and it was RAINING!!! yay! We went to Chili's cause we had a giftcard for it and ate some yummy foods and I being so silly forgot to have the waiter take a pic of us! grr its ok i'm over it. It was a fun night! :) except the part where Lance started to feel like crap :( But over all It was Great :)

Flash Back Friday's!

Okay so I'm having Flash Back Fridays :) Today's Flash Back is September 11. 2001

It just seems fitting with the 10th anniversary on Sunday.


I remember that day like it was yesterday I was in 8th Grade and woke up just like any other day when the phone rang which was odd because it was like 6:30 am I was in the bathroom getting ready and  my Dad answered it and I heard him say  turn on the TV! and then I remember him saying " Oh My goodness!" I walked into their bedroom to see what the fuss was about and soon my Sisters followed. To be honest I had no idea what the Trade Center Towers were but remembered seeing them on Friends...it wasn't until my Dad told me what they were that I realized this was very serious!I still wasn't sure exactly what was happening by this time only one plane had hit and we were watching in awe and then the newscaster started to talke about how it looks like another plane is coming and watching it hit the second tower we couldn't believe it! It was like watching a horrible war movie but instead we were watching real life. We watched them fall and I remember crying because of the lives that were loss and whos lives would be changed forever. I was in such disbelief that this was really happening! We were late for school and when we got there  I remember Grant Haws our student body pres. had us all in student council pass out pins with american flags on them and no one knew what the heck was going on in every room the tv was on watching the news  we had an extra long moment of silient for those in New York and that day it seemed more students were aware of the  words we say in the Pledge of Allegance and it sounded louder to me as if maybe today it was just because it was routine but everyone was pledging their Allegance to America and  had a little more respect for Our Flag and our Country. That afternoon came and in English class Mrs Sheppard had us write about where we were when we heard what was going on and how we feel and what not she went on to talk about the day she was in school and a teacher came runnign down the hall screaming the President has been shot ( John F. Kennedy) and how she will never forget that day and how she wanted us to write about this day because she knew this day was going to be a day that we and America will never forget and that it will be a story to tell our children and our childrens children.... I think that is what has helped me remember it better. My Mom picked us up from school and that evening we just sat and watched the news. I remember later I think it was a week maybe 2 weeks at the CMA awards we watched and listened to Alan Jackson's proformance of him sitting playing the guitar singing " where were you when the world stoped turing" and I remember me and my sisters crying as he sang the song he wrote after September 11th. My heart goes out to every one who lost a loved one that day. and my heart goes out to every Solider and their families who are Serving our Country and I pray for their safety and that they and their familes will be watched over.  Regardless of what politicans are doing  and debates that  are going on I hope we all remember that we are all Americans we need to be united and remember just how blessed we are to be living in the Big Red, White and Blue The United States of America.
 Land of the free and Home of the Brave.

Say What!?

So I was reading the Sunday Comics today and I found one that I thought was funny so I read it out loud to Lance who by the way is playing call of duty right next to me on the couch... So I read him this Comic strip in the Dallas Morning News... Ya gotta read the comic to understand the end part of my post.






So I'm laughing Lance doesn't say a word and I move on to reading another comic and seriously 30 seconds later Lances says " um I think..."( doesn't finish his thought.. he continues to play his game)Me: " what?."  
 Lance : " Yeah I think Bears crap in the Woods.".....

Me: WHAT! *bust up laughing*

Gosh I love these random thoughts Lance has!

Educate Yourself

This is my blog and I have shared a lot of personal expierence about my struggles with Infertility and Pregnancy loss. I also know a lot of Woman who are in a very similar boat. However I forget that those who haven't expeirenced or known some one close who are in the boat of infertility Don't understand what that entails and I came across a beautiful website/ blog that made me wish more people would read their stories! More people would educate themselves so that when these things happen to our friends or family we can be a support to them and help them and not cause more pain to them by the ignorant things we say to them( and in general) that of course is all in good intentions but forget about good intentions you know what road is paved with them ... Start educating yourself and your friends.  I put it on my facebook page as well but i'm putting it here too!

 For those who want to better understand What some women have to go through when they have a pregnancy loss, stillbirth, or infant loss...Here is a link to the Faces of loss and these are their stories

Good Things to Come




Last Sunday In RS our lesson was on service but at the end of the lesson the teacher showed us this video. I had seen this veido before  several times but this time it seemed to have spoken to my heart more deeply I felt that this video was just for me and I felt Hopeful and Loved 

The part that touched my heart and brought me to tears was when he said these words but I felt like he was saying

“ [Brittany] Don’t you quit. You keep walking.  [Brittany] You keep trying. There is help and happiness ahead.” Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don’t come until heaven. But for those who  [ if you ]embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come. It will be all right in the end [Brittany]. Trust God and believe in good things to come.



In that moment my Testimony was stregthened I felt the Spirit so strongly words can describe just how I felt in that moment and every time I watch this video. I am so grateful for the Lords Tender Mercies.

My Best Friend






This Is seriously the Man I never get tired of waking up in the morning to, Looking at, Laughing with, Living with, and Loving! 5 years ago this month I met this handsomest, most amazing guy ever in the little town of Thatcher, Arizona right there in the Institure Buliding to be exact lol and I never could have imagine just how Happy I would be and Married to such an amazing Person! Lance is seriously the most amazing Man!

Thats my favorite! We tell eachother everything!! We have known eachother now for 5 years now and have been married for just over 4 and with no kids it has really allowed us to build our relationship as a couple and really get to know eachother and just have fun. Of course it all hasn't been fun the Poor guy has to deal with a very emotional wife! but He is so great and never complains at least to me about how difficult I can be :) and we have our moments like all marriages do. We have had our fair share of difficult times and heart ache with all the baby stuff but he has been so sweet and so kind during everthing rather it be flowers and a card just out of the blue or cause he knows i'm having a hard time or when he came home early from work after our last ultrasound that confirmed we had no baby anymore and brought flowers with him He is sooo considerate of my feelsing! we have grown so much closer and understand eachother a lot better I am SOOO blessed to spend Eternity with him and grow old with him. He is such an amazing Husband and friend and I know one day He will make such a GREAT Dad and our daughters will want to marry him! lol I am so lucky  Blessed to have him in my Life. I never thought you could love someone so much!

Addison Texas!!!

Okay so pictures to come but for now the story/ our journey to Texas!

We left Maricopa around 10:45am on Wednesday after Daisy got her last hair cute from Pet Stylist and we said our goodbyes to Alli and ROy and Marlee = SUPER HARD! During this last year Me and Alli have gotten super close and every time she came home from school and clinicals we would talk for  awhile and now its just weird! She is one of my Best friends and I won't see her for a long time so anyways before I start crying again! We came into Mesa so we could say goodbye to my Aunt Judy, Brother Dusy, and Sisters Nikki and Kristy and her family. all really really really really HARD! But we got on the road to Holbrook! Got to spend time with Lance's Mom and Dad and Sister Tess and also got to visit with Lance's best friend from childhood on up Cayla which was great!

My Parents got there Wed night and then Thrusday morning we had 13 hours and 13 mins to drive to get to addison we ended up leaving Holbrook at about 8:30 am because my Mom lost her wallet!! and she needed ID in order to come home on the plane so we needed to go to the DMV to get her a new license! Still haven't found the Wallet :( We were making pretty good timing for pulling a Trailer We got to New Mexico and got some gas and this guy was seriously 10 feet away from the pumps in the parking lot of LOVES and had a sign that said OUT OF GAS! and had 2 Gas cans as well sitting by his car! I don't Lance Who's gonna tell that idiot he is in the parking lot of a Gas Station! I wish I took a picture of it! obviously he wanted the money but why not do that further away from a Gas Station!? haha well our plan was to get to Witchita Falls thursday and then drive the rest of the way Friday morning we Got Witchita Falls and Lance says lets go all the way! so I called my Dad who was driving the car if he was good to drive the rest of the way he said Yes! So Lance Drank a Red Bull lol We arrived in Addison Texas at about 2:00am Texas time so Midnight AZ time. We stayed at Quality Inn and Suites just a mile from our Appartments and got some well deserved Sleep! Daisy did great through out the whole trip!! Mom and Dad flew out yesterday and I got the kitchen unpacked and most of the living room today we are unpacking Bedroom and Bathroom completly! Our Ward today was really nice! I have a good feeling about it however I MISS MARICOPA 2nd WARD! It was weird to go to church and not see familar faces! but everyone is really nice so I am excited for our new adventure for sure!!

Feeling the Love

Wow between the comments and the messages I have recieved I am definently feeling the Love. Thank you so all of your sweet and kind words. They mean more to me than you will ever know.

I want to make sure you guys know that Me and Lance are doing very well all things considering. I thought if this happened to me again I would lose it but really emotionally it hasn't been near as bad and I think for one its because of the prayers in our behalf and this time a baby didn't develope so it wasn't as heart breaking for me. does it stink i'm not gonna have a baby yes don't get me wrong but I can't dwell on that becuase dwelling on it won't make it better won't magically make a baby appear so I have chosen to not let this get me down. Last time was extremly hard EXTREMLY! poor Lance i'm sure wondered if I was ever coming back or gonna be the same. but  this time I prayed the day of the 1st ultrasound and honestly just gave it to Heavenly Father. Some times crap happens but everytime this stuff happens me and Lance grow so much closer as a couple and grow as a person and closer to Heavenly Father that I wouldn't change anything. I know one day our Sunday will come and we will be able to hold our sweet little big miracle's in our arms and we will be the most amazing parents ever! :) but until then we will put our Trust and Faith in Heavenly Father because He is the only one that sees the whole picture.

Hcg Drop

Well I called triage today at about 11:00am for my HCG level results 89,801..So I got my List of things I would need and headed to Walgreens to pick up my perscriptions. Picked them up got some Taco Bell and headed home. I put some chicken in the crock pot with some BBQ sauce so Lance would have dinner and myself with out me having to do nothing pretty much. so 12:45 came and I took my first round of Cytotec.
( Lets rewind and remember why I have to do this. I have a Blighted Olvum aka Missed Miscarriage,  its been 10 weeks since my last period and my body thinks its pregnant the longer I wait for a my body to natually sluff the stuff off the higher my risk is for a Septic Pregnancy which can lead to infection and Surgery and problems in the future for getting pregnant so the sooner the better)

Okay so like I said 12:45 cytotec and 1:12 I took  one lortab since Tylenol can put me to sleep pretty good I figured I would only need one. I WAS WRONG! from 2:40 until about 6:30 today I had the worse pain you can even imagine!!!! I took another lortab at 2:40 when the pain was kicking in and never got relief at all!! we are talking so painful I throw up!!!! It was 50 times worse than last time and lasted alot longer!! Finally when my 4 hours had been hit I took 2 Lortab at once at 6:30pm it finally kicked in made me feel so weird Lance said I was singing before I fell asleep I asked me what song I was singing he said all kinds of songs! bahahah I don't even remember! I feel asleep for 2 hours finally with no pain! It was wonderful!! Ate dinner and one of my best friends Darcy came over to drop off flowers and food the YW wanted to give me :) so sweet of them! I missed mutral tonight which  I was sad about :(  but Feeling better with my pain meds in me and doing good!  SO glad my Mother in law is coming tomorrow to help me pack! She is amaizng and I love her so much!! THank you everyone again for the prayers I appreciate them! Lance and I are doing very well and our spirits are high and  I know your prayers have helped!

Pregnancy Update

Well it looks like the McGee family will still have to wait some more before we get our baby. Ultrasound today confirmed again that there is no fetal pole no baby in my Sac my uterus measured one day bigger than the last ultrasound a week ago....so what that means is since I'm not spotting or bleeding or cramping I have 2 options one take a pill that will help the bleeding two surgery (D and C) I voted no to surgery! My doc was happy with that she doesn't like D and C so I had ot go back to the lab to get bloodwork for my hcg levels since they only did it once! boo so she wants to see another level plus my progestrone levels also so i did that and I dropped my perscriptions off at Walgreens my labs should come back tomorrow afternoon so I have to call triage tomorrow to see if my levels are decreasing as well since the so as of friday my Hcg levels are 101,716 tomorrow when I call if they are less than that I get to pop in 3 pills  called Cytotec and within 6 hours it should start the process of flushing out my uterus and She also gave me some pain meds to go with it! Thank Heavens!

I am so grateful to all of you who kept us in your prayers and I know that because of the prayers I am really feeling at peace with the situation and know That Heaven Father has a plan and he knows us and loves us so much and everything happens for a reason even if we can't see it. I am very grateful that my Body has gotten pregnant cause that is a good sign! Its times like this that I realize just how much of a miracle having a baby is and I am so happy for all my friends who are having a healthy pregnancy and I'm praying for all my friends who are still trying for their miracle as well. Love you all and Mothers who are reading this give your little one an extra hug from all the Mom's in waiting. :)
