The Home Depot

This past weekend we had our couples tool shower! It was so much fun. Kevin is obsessed with his tool collection, so after getting a few gift cards we woke up Sunday and headed straight for the Home, depot that is! It was kinda like a women going into her favorite department store looking for that special pair of shoes. For Kevin he walked down every isle looking for exactly what he wanted to buy. The night before he had his choices narrowed down to 3. In the long run he didn't get any of those 3 things. I am very excited that he finally got to have his tool shower! Now he can quit asking me when he can buy tools.

Big Brother 10

Jerry

Memphis



Dan

This is the last week of Big Brother and as many of you know I am obsessed with BB!! Ok, so these are the last three people left in the game. Jerry, the old man, Memphis, the "mixologist", and Dan, the catholic school teacher. Now, throughout the season I have been a huge Renny and Keesha fan, but at some points in the season I loved Dan. I was sad to see Keesha go, I felt like Memphis just used her, but that is the point of the game so oh well. I think I am going to for Dan at this point in the game!!!
So speaking of the game this is one show I enjoy, but I know that I would never be able to go on. You really have to have a tough backbone and not get upset when you know other people are talking behind your back. Well, if you know me that is a deal breaker for me...I would have my feelings hurt the first day, and would probably cry constantly because someone wouldn't want to talk to me....boo who. Anyways, I do have some friends who I think would be fantastic for this show. If you are reading this you know who you are!!! I really need one of you to apply so that I can know someone on the show and live vicariously through you. So please do me a favor and apply for the show what do you have to lose. Oh, and I have big brother after dark, so you could give me some shout outs!! This sounds like a great plan.

Good Friends=Good Ideas



Ok so one of my friends told me about this awesome website called scrapblog.com and as you can see I am going crazy wanting to scrap everything!! I know people say myspace and facebook are addicting, but clearly they have never gone to scrapblog.com. Thank you Effie for showing me a fabulous new hobby! I will put some examples of what I am talking about!!

Wedding Season!!!



Congratulations Dayton and Natalie!!! This weekend one of our best friends got married. I love going to weddings especially when the groom cries. I know for a fact Dayton got chocked up a time or two. He said "Natalie just looked so pretty coming down the isle". This wedding was also touching becasue when Dayton was younger his mother passed away of cancer!! Saturday, in her honor they had a chair with her picture and some flowers seated next to Dayton's dad. The whole family was gathered around and were so proud of him, but in my heart I know that the biggest smile that day was in heaven. I never met his mom but from what I hear Dayton was pretty special in her eyes. Hope you guys have a fun and safe honeymoon!!

Where I am the happiest!!!

As many of you know I bought a house about a year and half ago!! I never knew that owning your own home could be so rewarding. Since I have lived here I can honestly say I hardly ever leave. Already there are so many memories in this house. I look forward to getting off work to come home and just relax!! As many of you know I hate to be alone and I have always been one that goes constantly. However, now I find being alone in my house is a time that I cherish. I can't wait till it is winter again and I can snuggle up in my warm house. There are still so many things I want to do to it, but right now there is just no time. I am busy putting wedding things away and I have found I might need a bigger house. HAHA !!! I can't wait till Kevin and I have everything put together just the way we like it. He is still trying to convince me we need a Matt Kenseth bedroom....I hate to be the one to break it to him, but not happenin... how about a Matt Kenseth garage???? I think that will do for now!!!

First Week of School!!

This is the first week back to school at good ole Terry Elementary!! I was really hoping that I would get a good class this year and so far so good. (cross your fingers) It's crazy how I forget how little they are when they first start school. Getting in a line takes an act of congress, and getting pants ready to go the bathroom is an ever bigger deal. I have one that is terrified of the toliet and refuses to go inside!!! I swear I could write a book of funny stories and this is only year number 5!

I also have to tell myself every minute that patience is hard but you must do it. I also keep telling myself I won't be one of these parents that comes in the first day with tears in their eyes and more nervous than their child, but lets face it they are about to drop off their most prized pocession to someone they hardly know.

I'll update later with any new and funny stories!!! Only 175 days till summer!!
