Chanse

So as I was looking through my posts I noticed that I haven't done my brother or my dad on my top 10. It seems only fair that I do them also...seeing as how I wouldn't be here without one of them. And the other one I remember how excited I was to get. After 4 girls a boy was a nice change. So here it is on my bro. What I love about this boy! My brother Chanse......


1. He is a good dad. He tries very hard to make sure that his son grows up to be a responsible adult. And he loves his son to pieces. And that boy loves his dad. Even though Chanse isn't with his son's mother any more I love how close he and K.C. are.

2. I'm not sure if this is cause he grew up with so many girls or not but I love how sensitive he is. He gets his feeling hurt very easily...But with that being said he also gets his feelings hurt for other people. He doesn't like mean people.

3. He is NOT outspoken not at all...nothing like his sisters. Very quite, waits for his turn to speak, Its a nice change from 4 wait make that 5 including my mother very outspoken women to have someone that's not. I love that about him.

4. He is a very hard worker....very hard worker. And because of how hard he works he was able to buy a home all by himself. He is very proud of his home and he should be he worked damn hard to get it.

5. He is very affectionate...you wouldn't think he was looking at him. But when ever he sees me one of the first things I get is a hug. And it has been that way since he was a baby. I love how he doesn't care if anyone is looking or if his friends are around. He has never been too cool to hug his sisters!

6. His ability to fall in love so fast...I also think this is a down fall of his, which is why he has two engagement rings and no wife. But if my brother gives you his heart its yours.

7. How close he and my dad are. My dad was soo excited to get a boy, and since he has been born my dad and brother go hunting every year with each other. My dad looks forward to those trips just as much as my brother does.

8. He is still a mama's boy..my brother will ask my mom for advise on everything...but I shouldn't just say my mom. He will ask his sisters too. And he takes to heart what you tell him. I'm a little scared for the girl that decides to finally marry my brother...haha

9. How generous he is, he would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. No questions asked.

10. He is a bit of a nerd....I think everyone is a bit of a nerd but he has liked wrestling since he was a kid and STILL watches it. Now he takes my nephew Chase to them..haha And I'm sure when K.C. gets older he and his dad will attend the nerd fest too!

Spring

So spring is suppose to be in the air....but if you live in Utah then you know all too well that it can be spring one day, and the next day its a snow storm. So last night after getting home I wanted to get some of the leaves from last fall and some branches that had fallen (from the neighbors tree i might add) and get them in the garbage. So Chris and I went out and did some yard work. Now let me just make this very clear to everyone. I have no green thumb, nor do i like to garden. In fact I hate it....but what I hate even more is looking like the neighbor with the crappy lawn. So out we went. After words it was late and I saw we had gotten an Arctic circle's ad, with some pretty good deals. So out we went again...which leads me to my first picture of spring. (Remember I stole yesterdays pictures from her) And here it is my picture of Spring time yeah!!!

Oh and P.S. It was delicious!!! And a bargain at only a $1.99 thanks arctic circle.

Oooops!

It seems that I have stopped blogging when I run out of challenges for myself...So I take it that I will need to be a little more creative with my self in order to keep my little blog going....my little blog of 2 people that read..haha! Any way...this is my thought I will take a picture of Spring time..it can be anything really flowers, the grass showing signs of life. My new shirt I decided to get for summer, even though most of my wardrobe is the same colors, grey and black. It just goes from long sleeve to short sleeve in the summer months, but its still new to me and springing for me too. Now I don't want you guys to think that I came up with this all on my own cause I didn't....I got it from Krystn and she in turn got if from this blog. So we both stole it...hahaha. I just added my own spin on it so that it will get me motivated to blog again... So here are my photos for today and no I didn't take the pictures, yes I did steal them from Spunkyphoto aka Krystn. But they are pictures of me and my family and its almost spring and I just thought of this a few minutes ago so, here they are. Our family pictures..oh and btw it only took an act of God to get these things taken. But I love how they turned out.

Mom and dad...love this pic

Gma & Gpa...when I first saw this picture it made me teary eyed...I don't know exactly why but I just love this picture. Maybe its cause I know they wont be here forever and I think this picture captures them and their story, old and a little worn but still the loves of each others lives.

All of the nieces and nephews...So cute!

Look at this group can you believe it!

Shay and Grey

Cristy Chase and Roo

Chanse & KC

Me and my honey Chris oh and btw my sisters kept on giving me crap about this picture but I love the way it came out!

And Kori Jamie and their group Koy, Maddy, Brooke, Porter, & Evil Peyton!!! She looks innocent enough but let me tell you she isn't! haha

What to blog

So maybe I had a little too much fun on St. Patty's day.....cause today I'm in no mood to list a top 10 love list. But on the bright side that is OK...Cause I'm pretty sure the 30 days is up. So I did complete it like I wanted, and I still want to go through and list a few more people from my family...just not today. I hope that everyone had a great, fun, but safe St. Patrick's day.......Just like I did...maybe a little too much fun.....I need some Tylenol.



Third time is a charm at getting both of us in the picture...geeze! Not that this is a flattering on of him! yikes lol love you honey!

Happy St. Pattys Day!!

You know I really LOVE me some St. Pattricks day. So instead of doing another family love I think I will do it on what I love about this day! Its such a fun day....well I think.



 What I love about St. Pattys Day.....



1. I love how everyone wears geen.

2. I love that the people who dont wear green get pinched.

3. That my sister and I get together with our husbands and friends and go to Bostons each year. We get the beer from there...and omg its soo good. Normally im not a huge beer drinker but Bostons bear is very good and they make it green for St. Pattys day.

4. There is something about the Irish that I like. I havent found it yet...but im pretty sure we have Irish some where in our blood line....I mean come on where else would I get is fair skin and all these freckles from?

5. Its just a fun little Holiday thats not a huge deal you dont have to buy anything for it. Its just something different and fun.

6. The parades that they do. They are fun to watch and people get all dressed up.

7. It reminds me of my trip to Ireland...If you ever get a chance to go.....DO!!! Its one of the most beautiful places I have ever been, not to mention greenest. It really is a beautiful place.



8. The t-shirts with their clever sayings like "kiss me im Irish" or "Lady Luck" stuff like that.

9. Green is flattering color on me and brings out the green in my eyes.

10. Everyone is drunk and happy by the end of the day!

Mom

So here is the post that I was going to do about my mom yesterday but instead did the random ones. I love my mom...yes she can be overbearing at times. And yes sometimes we need a little break. But I can always count on this lady if I need her. And I have needed her. So here it is.....

What I LOVE about my mother.




1. HOW hilarious she is...she is silly with everyone. And I do mean everyone. And she has a unique sense of humor. She lost her mom before I was ever born. But she will joke about how her mom is dead and buried so she doesn't have to listen to you. She sees the humor in a lot of different things and I love that about this woman.

I noticed after I put this up it was a pic I had edited haha.Below is the real photo lol... I mean can you belive how large my sisters and moms noses are??






2. How devoted she is to her kids. And take it from me she is devoted. Before I had gotten into my car accident in Vegas. She and I had gotten into a fight the night before. I remember after waking up one of the first things I saw was my mom. I cant tell you how relived, happy, and at peace I was when I saw her. As soon as I did I knew I didn't have to worry about another thing she would take care of all of it. And she did. And it didn't matter that we had been fighting. I needed her and she was gonna be there come hell or high water.

3. What a good Grandma she is...I tell her all the time she is a way better Grandma than she was a mother. And what I mean by that is she is soo much more patient. Things aren't as important as they were when we were young. It doesn't matter if they are dirty, or someone is throwing a tantrum. She is patient with them and helps them along. I really don't think my sisters know how good they have it with my mom.

4. That she likes to hang out with me. And trusts my opinion about things. She will always ask me to go shopping with her. Or go and help pick out new glasses. Its nice to spend time with her especially since I like funny people...and she is funny.

5. That even though she complains about my dad (which would be one of my dislikes) she loves him very much. And you can tell more so by her actions. She is always thinking about something he may like or making sure he has dinner when he gets home. They still cuddle on the couch and kiss in front of us kids. Its nice to see that even with all of their ups and downs they still love each other after all this time.

6. How selfless and thoughtful she is...which i think my sister Cristy gets this trait from her. She is always thinking about someone else's needs before her own. I know that is the true meaning of the word mother "sacrifice." And she does it all the time...not just with her kids, grand kids, and husband but others as well.

7. Fair...that is one thing my mother is to a fault is fair..whether it be with money, time, work. She is fair about it. And always has been.

8. How friendly she is...all of my friends love my mom and she makes them feel welcome and at home. I love it when you find people out there that can make you feel at ease and comfortable. And my mom is one of them I think.

9. I admire how well she does with money and I wish that was a trait of hers that I could get down. I know most of it is discipline and I have very little. But my mother has always tried to instill this in me and help me better with money. I just wish I was. 

10. I love that she taught me to stick up for myself and if you see something you don't like you should voice your opinion. Root for the underdog. Don't let mean people tell you what to do. Help out others that need your help...In all she taught me to be a good person and to treat others with the kind of kindness and respect that I would want to be treated with.

Sick day!

So I was ill yesterday and I will spare you all the details of me spending my morning trying to hold down the puke and other fun stuff that happens when you are sick. I really do loath being sick though. So today I feel better and instead of doing an I love post about my mother like I was going to, I will do this as a list of random ones. The mom post can wait another day! So on with it is my list of I loves.....

1. I love that I feel 90% better than I did yesterday! Thank god!

2. I love the the gross text that i sent my husband about my stool being runny went to a close friend of mine and NOT to the guy at work that I text about me not coming in to work that day...Still wondering why my phone did that.

3. That I have decided to do something pro-active. I am starting this and I cant wait. I am always paranoid that when something bad happens I wont be prepared...Well hopefully this training will prepare me more.

4. That  I wrote my letter to Congressman Bishop in order to be able to get a tour of the white house. I'm so excited about this trip to Virgina...it should be fun especially with all of my sisters and mom going.

5. That the stupid time change hasn't effected me as much as my poor hubby. He is having a hard time with it.

6.That when I got to work today my desk wasn't just a huge pile of papers and a big mess like normal. Someone actually took the time to organize it into one pile. Thank you who ever you are.

7. That when I "thought" that I saw a mouse at our house and I had my husband pull out all of the appliances to make sure of no mouse poop...there was none...THANK YOU! I'm still unsure of if we do have a mouse but I'm crossing my fingers that this is a big NO!!!

8. That I was able to catch up on a lot of my programs when I was home sick.

9. That my hubby made dinner for me last night. Which only involved him getting pizza but still thanks honey!

10. That this Saturday is the scrap booking class and I'm hoping that I'm a little faster than I have been cause seriously I am SSSSLLLLLOOOOOWWW.

Shay

Shay is my youngest sister. She is a fiery red head. And everything you have heard about red heads and having a fiery temper is true. When we were younger she would have these rambling tantrums and go on and on and on and on......well you get the point. But what is funny is now she is a mother and her son could be her twin only in boy form. This kid is a terror but can also be sweet and cuddly at times too..go figure. My sister also struggled with drug addiction. But has come great lengths to overcome that part of her life... SO here it is what I love about this crazy fiery red head..


What I love about my sister Shay......





1. She is loyal to a fault...it doesn't matter if you live in a palace or live on the streets if you are her friend...YOU ARE HER FRIEND! And she will stick by you through thick and thin.




2. I was in aw of how good she looked after she found out she was pregnant. I had left her in Vegas after coming home to stay. It had been a few months and I would get the phone call from Lindsey telling me about my sister and her horrible choices that she was making. I was so angry with her...The way my parents were aging worrying constantly about her. So when I went down to Vegas for a visit. I decided to stop by and see her. By this time she had moved out of her boyfriends home and was living on her own. She had to take the bus to and from work because of one of her other "horrible choices." But she was doing it.... So I called her on the phone to get directions. I was close but unsure of what apartment building she was in. I told her where I was at and she said well I will go and stand outside. That is when she told me that she thought she maybe pregnant..I asked if she had told mom. No. well are you going to tell her. Yes. When? When I know for sure. That's when I spotted her.....AND the huge belly that she had. Its also when I said...Uhmm you "THINK" you "MIGHT" be pregnant? I'm no doctor but I'm gonna go ahead and tell you.....your pregnant. She laughed....and I could tell by the laugh that she had been very nervous about what I would say...Seeing her I knew she would be a good mother. She had quite EVERYTHING and I do mean EVERYTHING!!!! No caffeine, smoking quit it cold turkey, no alcohol, she was making sure that this kid had a fighting chance...I was so proud of her.



3. That she gives everyone a nick name...I have said before that mine is "poodle" who knows why she calls me that. Cristy's is "Teener" which I think is funny. But she loves to call people by the nick name that she has given them.


4. How much fun she can be to be around. I enjoy it when all of my sisters and I are around each other. I don't know how to explain it but its almost like I crave that feeling and when one of us isn't there all of us feel it. It feels like a hole.








5. How funny she is...we took a girls trip down to Mesquite to get Greydon her son from his dad. While we were headed down we decided to pull over at a stop and get something to eat. We were past Provo and unfamiliar with things. My mom was driving and asking for directions. I remember Shay (the only one that was familiar with where we were at) said "Mom get over." My mother already frazzled said get over where? Shay: Get over, but now pointing to the right. My mother couldn't see where she was pointing. Again my mom said Get over where? Shay. get over. Finally Cristy said to the right she is pointing to the right. Cars are flying past us as we try to make it to the exit. When my mother starts in "Get over whats that suppose to mean I cant see where you are pointing." And Shay pipes off with " Get over means get the Fruck over" My sisters and I explode into laughter...it eased the tension in the car but we laughed about it all the way to mesquite and back.


6. How talented she is in sports...she runs like she hasn't a care in the world and she craves the competition of sports. I have never liked them and wished that I could love them as much as my sisters. Maybe then I would be 500lbs and think of running as corporal punishment. But she loves it and is awesome at it.


7. Her hair out of all of us girls hers is the thickest, and its the color red that I wish mine had stayed..When she straightens it, its beautiful she looks like a different person.



8. How kind she is...when she is angry she is scary. But she is one of the kindest people that I know. She will always rout for the under dog. And she doesn't care much for mean people. And she will let you know if she thinks you are being mean.



9. If it has been a few days since I have talked to her. I will get a phone call and we will just talk and see how each other are doing. She likes to hear gossip...doesn't like to be involved in it. But I love that she will call to see how her big sissy is doing.


10.She is a wonderful mother. She loves her little demon to death.

Crusty

Today my LOVE spotlight will be on my sissy Cristy...She and I have gotten a lot closer over the last year and its been nice. She has taught me to scrapbook and a few other things about being crafty and it has inspired me to start being a little more creative with things. I have her to thank. We call her Crusty brownstain (well OK I call her that haha) But last year while she was at her sons baseball practice getting to know the parents they went around and were telling each other their names. When they got to my sister she said my name is Cristy Storey.....and no sooner had she said that when her daughter Roo said "She also likes to go by Crusty Brownstain." She said she just kinda stood there looking at all the parents and then quickly said "Uhmm no I don't." And then had to explain that it was something her sister called her joking around. HAHAHA kids they are so honest. Well here are some of the reasons that I love this girl.

What I love about my sister Cristy.....





1. She is a hard worker....and I mean damn hard worker...she will work from sun up to sun down if she needed to she gets this from my dad. But I admire that she can do it. If I have more than one job i turn into Debbie downer and bitchy Mc bictherson... She can handle and I am in awh of just how hard she works.


2. She is an awesome mother each one of my sisters and my bro are so different in their parenting. She is more of a hands on mom..She makes time for soccer games, baseball, dance, football, and volleyball. She makes time to go to everything that her kids are in and she is very involved with them.




3. She isn't as quick witted as the rest of me and my sisters but when she does say or do something its funny. And she will laugh about it forever...and I do mean forever. She pulled a joke on me and wouldn't shut up about it for days...haha




4. She is always the first one to offer to help. All of my sisters are eager to help out but she is always the first one to either ask if you need it or offer helping even if you haven't asked her. She can just tell and even with her hectic and busy schedule she will make time for you.



5. This is my favorite thing about her...but she is the sister that if your fired up about something and you need to vent...call her she will get just as fired up about it as you are..She will listen and she only will take your side. She was the one that I called the most during my wedding planning year...she was my savor in many ways but especially if something was bugging me. I could count on her to listen and take my side..And sometimes all a girl needs is to know is someone else thinks she is right too!


6. Her hair and skin she has beautiful long blond hair, unfortunately she always wears it in a pony tail but it is gorges. And she is the only one that has pretty skin that will tan in the sun...So pretty I have always envied that she could go in the sun and tan and her skin was just beautiful. I keep trying to tell everyone that being speckled is the new tan...but no one is buying it....not even me.


7. She is also very outspoken she will tell it like it is and she has no problem letting you know if you have crossed the line...especially if it comes to her kids or sisters.


8. How thoughtful she is...she thinks of nice things to do for others and does it. She once took all of my nieces and nephews and got their pictures take for their parents. And this year she had the two youngest kids make and decorate cakes for their parents took a picture of the kids holding it was just a nice gesture to do for Valentines day for Shay and Chanse to get a Valentine from their kids. And she is always thinking and doing things for other people.


9. How easy she gets along with kids...She loves babies she loves the stage how dependant they are on you she loves everything about it. KC and Grey my two youngest nephews love going with here and staying at Aunt chich chi's house. She really does want to have more kids and Its so cute to see her with the boys she is really good with them.



10. And as promised how devoted she is to her family I know if I needed her she would be right there willing to help me with anything she could. She is totally a family first and everything else second person and I just love that about her.

Tired

How can you go from one day to feeling great the air is clean the sky is blue and the sun is making the snow sparkle to this day.......deary and cloudy...Not to mention sleepy. I cant seem to wake up enough today. I'm sure part of it was I was running late so I had to not get my caffeine fix. So now I sit here at my desk nodding off and trying to think of a list of loves. When it came to me. I did the one about my hubby and to be honest I was starting to run out of the general I love..I mean the next list was going to be I love that the mail man delivers my mail...lame. So I thought to my self take a member of my family and list 10 things I love about them! Great idea Sara! So I have decided that is just what I will do. I have already done my hubby, I may do him again there are just so many things I love about him. But today I will do my sister Kori as my spotlighted loves....So here we go.

What I love about my Sister Kori...






1. How smart she is...she works at a title company and she is just very quick and smart about it. She knows things off the top of her head that I have no idea about. She helped me immensely when I bought my house and I have always appreciated it.

2. How determined she is...we tease her all the time that she loves money (which she does) But I also admire that she knows what she wants and is willing to take chances to get it.


3. That she is a good mother...When she got pregnant with Maddy she was so scared about being a single mom. But she took to it like she had done it before. She loves her kids very much and she wants the best for them.





4. How funny and silly she is...I get a call at least 2 -3 times a month with a funny story or something funny that has happened at work...and when all of us get together we laugh at everything.



5. I love that she is so forgiving about things...I also feel like this is a down fall for her because she is so forgiving. I think that people take advantage of her willingness to forgive so easily and they walk all over her again and again. I'm not like that at all I have a hard time with forgiveness (which I don't think is a good thing I have been trying to work on it.) But she is so soft hearted she cant stay angry at people for long.

6. How tender hearted she is...she still cry's at sad movies or is touched by someones personal story and has no shame about crying in front of others. If she is touched by something you did you will know it....

7. That she is outspoken VERY outspoken...she will tell you like it is (something all of us girls got from our mother and she in turn got it from hers.) But if you have crossed her or one of her kids watch out she is tender hearted but that is only after she has ripped you a new one. But you always know where you stand with her.


8. How beautiful she has gotten...when we were little people used to think we were twins. We are only 14 months apart so we were close in age...but looking back at pictures the only thing that i see that looks the same is we both had our UGLY PERMS (there is a place in hell for whom ever invented the fuggly ass Afro perm and red curlers.) And my mom would dress us the same...But since we have gotten older she has blossomed into a beautiful woman and now when people will ask "Are you Kori Cannons sister? Cause you look like her." It makes me feel good because I think she is beautiful.



9. This one I'm sure I will post with all my sisters but she can be so angry with me...we aren't speaking to each other angry. But I know if I needed her she would be there in a heart beat and visa verse. Any time there is a party, death, shower, birthday, wedding, any thing my sisters are right in the middle of it helping with whatever they can. And I know it will be like that forever.


10. She is my venter...I can call her and vent to her about husband, mother, work, friends, Pretty much anything.. She will tell me if she thinks I'm being silly or she will just listen. I love that I have someone to vent to that will keep it to their self and she knows its the same way with me when she needs to vent.

What a Gorgeous DAY!

So for people that read this...(if there are any) it snowed again. That is one thing about Utah weather its unpredictable for sure. But its BEAUTIFUL out side. On the way to work this morning the sun was shining and it makes the snow sparkle...so pretty! I was walking to the garage and when I walked into the backyard we have this huge tree (on a side note when its dark at night it reminds me of the tree that takes the boy in poltergeist) But snow was coming down from it so it looked like it was lightly snowing...So beautiful. I LOVE days like this. So with that said here we go.



I love....


1. How beautiful of a day it is today and that I am alive to see it.

yes I realize this isn't the prettiest pic but its all i had of today.


2. That I didn't have to drive far to get to work. But I do drive far enough to look at how gorgeous of a day it is.


3. For the Internet...without it there are a few people that I wouldn't have kept in contact with that are very important to me. But with facebook and Yahoo IM I can talk to them almost every day.


4. That I live close to good doctors and that if I'm sick with a cold its just a matter of driving to get the things I need to make me better. Its not a life or death situation.


5. How creative and talented the people that I surround myself with are. I think about it all the time and a lot of my friend are VERY talented with something be it fashion, photography, interior design, skiing, drawing, intelligence. And I don't feel like I have a big talent but they do inspire me to find one.


6. Hats and that I look OK in them. I only say that because I have very very very thin hair and it gets oily about 2 seconds after I'm out of the shower. I have read that washing your hair every day isn't good for you skin..not to mention I don't shower every day (judge if you must but I don't) because of my very dry skin...If showered every day all you would see is a pile of skin flakes on the floor. I'm not saying that if I go and run (hahaha yes I know bad example) and sweat and stink that I think to myself....nope showered this morning gotta wait another day before you shower again. Wow but back to hats I love hats.

yep under this hat is a grease ball people!

7. My nails...My mom has pretty nails and that is one thing that I did get from her that I like. They are strong nails and they grow pretty long and stay long. So I don't have to get fake nails if I don't want to.


8. Getting a new recipe and trying it. Thanks Krystn!


9. Snuggling up on a cold night like last night and watching TV with my hubby.


10. Did I mention how GORGEOUS it was outside today!!

Blah Monday

Well the dinner my hubby made was awesome! He did a really good job. I can always tell when its really good...cause even the kids eat it. My niece Pey went up of rice like 3 different times...HEY PIG! But it was good and he did a very good job on the sushi! My Family devoured it and the the cake he got was yummy too. Baskin Robbins cake only thing was he let me dumb sister go and get it and it had "Happy Birthday Poodle" On it. For some reason my sister Shay calls me poodle. Who knows why she just started calling me that. She calls my other sister Cristy "TEENER" Which I think is hilarious and Cristy hates....so maybe that is why I'm called "poodle" Oh well. I also got my Chi and a blender which I wanted from Shay and I got a cute little skull Thermos too. So it was a nice day. Well lets get on with it. I have decided to do a special one about my hubby since he was so awesome about making such a great dinner for me.


I love....

1. His cooking..such a yummy cook. He is fast at it and its always Delicious.

2. That he is a little shy...I am not shy at all and he gets quite around people he doesn't know...I think its cute.

3. I love his lips. My hubby has some of the prettiest lips I have ever seen on a guy...I just love them.

4. That he is so ticklish..Which is nice for me cause then he never wants a back rub or foot rub but I get them all the time. YEAH for me.

5. How silly he can get with me.

6. That he is so funny...Being funny to me is a huge turn on and he makes me laugh at least once a day with something silly or funny he says.

7. How thoughtful he is...he is always helping my parents or brother or sisters and even my grandma with electrical stuff. He doesn't complain about it he just does it...so sweet!

8. How smart he is. He is soo good with numbers and electronics....so smart he just gets it. I have no clue when it comes to either.

Hump Day!

Holy Moley this week is flying by for me...which is good cause here comes the weekend. My hubby was sick last weekend and wasn't able to make dinner for my Birthday so I get an extended birthday and he is making dinner this Sunday! AND drum roll please dadadadadada he is making my favorite SUSHI!!!! Yep he learned how to make it and its is delicious. One thing that bugs me about him though is that after he makes this awesome meal and you tell him how delicious it was. He says "hmm it was OK" Uhmm hello it was WONDERFUL!!! Not just OK. I really wish that he would go back into the food industry. He is so good at it...But he tells me that he doesn't want to cause then he wont cook at home. And I really don't want that to happen...So I guess I will just keep my mouth shut and enjoy his cooking. Well lets get to the positive vibes!!

I love...

1. When time flies by at work...Lets face it no one wants to be at work..well OK maybe I don't want to be at work so when time flies by and I look up and its almost time to go...totally excited!


2. My wedding ring. I know that I have blogged about it before but I really do love it. I tell my husband all the time that I love the ring almost more than him...He laughs and tells me he knows.


3. That my husband is trying to quite chewing. He was suppose to be done chewing before we got married but he turned into the incredible hulk at times and was a giant ass. So I told him that I was stressed and he was stressed so he could try after the wedding. Well he is trying and I hope I'm not jinxing him by talking about it! But Good luck honey.

4. My phone cover my mom bought me for Christmas. Its all glittery and cute with a sliver skull and cross bones on it. Totally me. Thanks mom.


5. That my bosses are so lax about my time. I'm late almost everyday and I took a long lunch today. I feel really guilty about it..And I need to be more on time. But me and morning are not the best of friends. If I could just wake up and have someone do my hair and make up in the morning, pick out some clothes to wear and make my espresso....well I would be set. Instead my mornings are me negotiating how much longer I can press the snooze button...If you don't wash your hair and just wear a hat you can sleep in for 10 more min...stupid crap like that.


6. Bath and Body hand wash...But not just any it has to be the foam kind...The other kind gets this gross little hard stuff in the spout and it gets all over if your not careful.


7. They way I look in glasses...I got these newer glasses a few months ago. And I really like the way I look in them. I think I look so much smarter. I'm mean no one really needs to know that I think a balanced check book is good if I'm within a 20 dollars of the what I really have in there. They can just think wow she looks super smart! haha




8. Home made cards my friend made this one for my birthday and I just love it. I think its so cute!




9. Dear Prudence. She is kinda like Dear Abby only hilarious. I laugh at her responses to people all the time. She is blunt and to the point but obviously loves sarcasm as I do. If you want to check her out here is her site. http://www.slate.com/id/3531/landing/1/
10. That I have two lovely friends growing on my chin...GAG!! I really don't love this one but I keep feeling them on there and its gagging me out! I love feeling like I'm back in High School again. Geeze!

March already!

I cant believe that February is over and its MARCH!! Holy cow where does the time go. I have a few more projects going...Baby showers, Pictures soon, A wedding, and lunch with friends..So I have the feeling that this month will fly by like the last one did....But lets get to it.

I love....

1. Throwing a party, or shower. They are so much fun but lets be real they are a lot of work. And for some reason I feel that things have to be perfect and if they aren't the whole day I'm thinking to my self..its not prefect its not perfect. But I still love to throw a party!

2. Weda I really love that girl. I don't think I have talked about her before but she is my housekeeper and my savior she cleans my house every two weeks and I just love it! I come home to a nice clean house...it smells good, my sheet are changed, floors mopped, tub cleaned, vacuumed, nice house. I LOVE that girl!!

3. Hot toddies...OK well my very own version of a hot toddy. I found these packets of Mott's apple cider that you can mix with hot water. So after a crappy ,cold or super stressed day...I get out the mix and some hot water and then depending on how crappy of a day it was also depends on on how much of the next ingredient I put in but.... some Jim Beam Whiskey and I pour that into the cider...Yeah I know its nothing like a hot toddy but its my version and it totally relaxes you on a crappy stress filled cold day.

4. Good hair days..And the reason for this one is cause today was a bad hair day..pulled up in a bun with a bandanna on so not cute. But that is why every girl loves a good hair day.

5. Red hair...my sister Shay has beautiful red hair. I wish that my hair would have stayed more red instead of the mouse brown color that it turned into but I love the way that red hair looks its so pretty.

6. The salads at Bajios salads...Had one for lunch and the are delicious I highly recommend them.

7. Coupons and that you can print them off line. I save so much money by just doing a quick search to see if they may or may not have a handy coupon. So exciting saving money...well at least I think so.

8. That its almost St. Patty's Day..I really do like St. Patrick's day. A few of our close friends go to the bar and get green beer from Bostons...its so yummy. I'm not really a beer drinker but go to Bostons and get a beer from them. They freeze their mugs so when you get your beer there is a little bit of ice in it...mmmmmmmmmmm

9. The green beer at Bostons for the reasons above.

10. That spring is trying to get here. I'm not a huge fan of spring its maybe my 2nd favorite season, But I do like that you don't have to have on 35 layers of clothing to walk from your house to the car. So bring on the Spring!
