50 Things

that you may not know about me...

2. Elliot Stabler from Law & Order: SVU is the hottest, sexiest thing to ever walk this planet.
3. I have a soft spot in my heart for animals. I just love them!
4. I wanted to be a vet growing up.
5. I'm a terrible housewife. I end up calling Judd 10 times a day out of boredom.
6. I'm so nervous about nursing school, that I can't sleep some nights.
7. I have three wonderful nephews that I love SO much!
8. Judd and Audra are my best friends in this world. I don't know what I'd do without them.

10. I can literally watch home videos for HOURS.
11. If I start a Mary Higgins Clark book on Monday, I'll finish it on Tuesday.
12. I hate reading a book from an author I don't know anything about b/c I fear the book will suck.
13. I love to play Medal of Honor on xbox...no, I'm not a boy.
14. I despise thank you notes. As much as I appreciate the gift - why can't it just be a "given" that I'm appreciative? Ugh.
15. I love to decorate.
16. Christmas is the absolute best time of year.
17. The ONLY thing I enjoyed about my high school years were the summers when we went to youth group trips.
18. Sardis Lake Christian Camp felt like my home away from home.
19. If you want to humble yourself, go on a mission trip to a poverty stricken place. Panama was so enlightening.
20. In my sleep, Judd says I constantly try to push him out of the bed. I informed him that I can't help what I do in my sleep. He wants a bigger mattress. :)
21. I LOVE getting pants that cover my feet.
22. I enjoy laying out on the beach. It's so calming.

26. I don't care if I'M cremated, but I don't want any of my FAMILY cremated. I don't know why.
27. If I had to pick one material possession that meant the most to me - I'd have to say my pictures. I love pictures.
28. I can't wait to be a mom.
29. I think Judd will make such a great Daddy one day.
30. I won't be a mom for several more years if all goes as planned. God has a funny way of throwing your plans out the window though, right Audra? :)
31. I want to build the next house we live in. I already have the house plans. I've had them for almost a year now. lol.

42. I could shop for a week straight and still not be tired of it.
43. I love purses. And I like to change out my purse often!
44. I love knock-off bags, sunglasses, etc. I'm not paying $400 for a bag when I can get one just like it for $40. :) And don't tell me how much better the quality is...It'll just get thrown back in my closet when I get a new one anyway.

49. Chocolate Chip Cookies are the best in the world!!
50. And last but certainly not least...I love my husband for being so sweet and patient with me!

The End!

Dead Flowers

So I came home last night to a lovely wrecked house. Dirty clothes in almost every room. Trash needing to be taken outside. Dirt all over the kitchen floor. Dead flowers still in a vase on the kitchen table. I love being a wife. I love being a wife. I want to kill my husband...I mean...I love being a wife.

I have a feeling that I'll be cleaning most of today...and probably most of next week. I start nursing school a week from Monday. I'm starting to get the "back to school jitters." But even more so, the "first day of school jitters." The people that I will meet and get to know a week from Monday will be the people in my life for at least the next 2 1/2 years. They'll be the ones that I cry to when I come home and still have dead flowers on the table that my husband didn't throw in the trash. How unnerving!

On a totally different note, I'm kind of excited because I'm F-I-N-A-L-L-Y going to get the rest of my wedding pictures and the CD with my pictures on it. So maybe I'll actually be able to post some of them....8 months later. I mean really, 8 months after the fact, the pictures just aren't that interesting anymore. Oh well, I'm posting them anyway and you can pretend to be interested in them. :)

If you're reading this, please say a prayer for my Daddy. As most of you know, he fell off of a ladder last month and shattered his ankle and has been in a cast. Last night he was experiencing a lot of pain and possible muscle spasms in his ankle. He's going to the doctor today at 3:20 to make sure there are no blood clots or anything else wrong with it. Please say a little prayer!

Well, it's off to clean this pigsty of a house! Have a wonderful day!

More pictures!!

Oakley has been checking out "the creature" a lot this week.

Um, yes, his mother is hiding from the camera.
You know this was mean of me...but it's cute!

I enjoy taking pictures of the little guy. He's just so sweet with those little chubby cheeks! Don't you just want to kiss his face off?! Okay, I'll try to post about something different soon...but seriously...I just can't help it!

New look....AGAIN!

I change my background every day it seems like. I think it keeps you on your toes! You'll always want to look at my blog to see what cool new background I have up. :) I think I'll stick with this one for a while though...it's quite cute! I'm here helping Audra and Andrew (and of course kissing Drew's face off!) this week and will certainly take a bazillion pictures.

Do you like the new background? :)

A visit with Baby Drew...

We came to see Mom, Dad, Audra & Andrew, and of course little Drew this weekend. You know you're jealous... Look how cute he is!!

The yawning picture and the next one are my favorites! How precious is that little face? I could just kiss it off! :) I love him!

As promised...

Here's the pictures of Joey's new kitten "Emmy" Don't ask...his last 2 cats names (at his parents) were Esteban & Samson. This one is actually kind of normal!
