ITS 2012!

New Years & Resolutions

To start off the weekend I got a new little toy for us to enjoy!

I haven’t actually quite figured it all out yet, but ohhhh well!

Its super cute & im actually enjoying it!

I have even nearly finished my first book on it!

& I truly recommend the book!

After a short trip to Big springs to help Tom get his Pete back on the road I spent Saturday doing laundry & cleaning getting ready for our company

-THE GRISSOMS & Miss Glitter!

They arrived & we had a little lunch & conversation! Lunch consisted of Pork Chops, Boneless Ribs, Homemade Mac N Cheese, Green beans &  My favorite red potatoes! The boys & their tight pants went to weld some brackets

and us girls & the pups

Had a day of chatting & the pups playing!

WE RANG in the New Year with family & friends playing beer pong at the Hart’s House! & came home to crash!

NOW LETS GET TO THE NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS

First We are getting in Shape

Im pretty sure ill regret this choice soon!!!!

AHHHH---- I can already feel the pain!!

Next im getting back tan

BECAUSE IT MAKES ME FEEL better about myself

( Yes, I understand its not good for me)

OH WELL, sue me!

The next of my resolutions is to try and learn more each day about my sweetheart, and to become a better person doing it! I want to work on me as a person, employee, daughter, girlfriend. I dont want to miss a beat in life and i want to be the happiest, most full of love and life person i can be for myself and others!  I worked very hard last year in making sure I was financially responcible so that I wouldn’t hsve to worry so much about what I did and didn’t spend money on! This year I will continue & try and become even better at it. I want to become closer with the lord & slow down and enjoy life instead of working so much & being a walking zombuie!

2011- Was definitely a year of ups and downs and crazy turns along the way! I graduated college, got  a great job, fell in love with my best friend and bought a house! We all have our days of down & trouble but thankfully I have great friends, wonderful families, a great lord and my best friend standing next to me!

So 2012- lets do this! You can only get more wonderful! 

From Our little home to yours

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Our New Little(Big) Family Addition

Family Addition….

For all of you who know either one of us you know...

We both most definitely love animals.

I have been wanting another dog since i moved in September.

Prince( my two year old Min pin)

simply needs a friend.

I really, really, really wanted prince a girlfriend...

but i figured it was in my best interest to decide against this..

(cough, cough)

Casey started looking at some of the animal shelters

He began sending me pictures, yesterday, of this little guy

who was pretty cute.

& i simply knew all too soon

WE would have a new guy at the house

EVERYONE I WOULD LIKE YOU TO MEET...

(Sanford)

But once he has been around a little while

all kind of names have been thrown in the air for him

Waylon( Jennings)

Merle (Haggard)

then somehow

TIG....(it is)

We have already had our first near death experience...

i will admit im not a fan

this

NEW (stage) 

better be gone quick.

goodnight.

What I'm Liking Wednesday... :)

What I’m liking Wednesday

First off , I am loving that  we have recently ripped up the guest bedroom & hall carpet to refinish the wood floors. We have only gotten started……

(this isnt actually our guest room)

Next, my sweetheart has so graciously taped off our guest bedroom & once the paint sprayer is fixed ,it will get painted.  Since he has been home I am so thankful for all the help making our house a “HOME.”

(this once again isnt our guest room)

My newest purse family addition

(Merry Christmas to & from me)

The mini love in my life

Is getting use d to some changes :

for instance

(His new bed)

                         He might have a new awakening coming soon

            WE are in search of a new friend & family member for him!

                                 

OMGEEEEEE! Aren’t these precious!

                                   Cant wait to eventually meet this little bundle!

                                                                                                                                               (a dear friends)

Well even though I couldn’t get the tree lights to come on

I have finally finished wrapping presents

(finally)

Well im off to enjoy the rest of my OH sooo busy day!

Feels good to know im where im supposed to be!

IM OH SO BLESSED.

Happy, Merry Christmas week!

  

& It’s beginning to look a LOT like Christmas

I

Its beginning to look a LOT like Christmas


Super excited to say that its looking like Christmas at the house

I have always said you cant start Christmas until after Thanksgiving sooo…

When I came home from working the CRAZY BLACK FRIDAY MADDNESS!

My honey and parents had the Christmas lights put on the house

I Have to admit, I kinda teared up…

because it was such a sweet thing

for me to come home to.

All the Christmas Presents I had gotten before this week

Were for that sweet honey of mine

Let me tell you once more!!!

I LOVE BUYING PEOPLE PRESENTS

But I am terrible at keeping the secrets.

So this year as soon as I bought all this presents

I also bought wrapping paper and all accessories

I went straight home and wrapped them up

& hid them in the closet

LAST Sunday after Casey left I put up the Christmas Tree

At first it was kinda missing some lights

But I still decorated it anyway….

YES it's a chunky, funky, GIRLISH tree

THIS WEEKEND

I had all three days off work

SO when I got off work Friday I went & finished the MOST of my Christmas Shopping

I was in search of several things:

A big gift for my dad

Which I actually found & got someone else one too because they were AWESOME

Stocking stuffers (for the families)

& some super cute stuff for our Moms!

But on my little adventure the biggest thing I wanted was

A&M stocking for Casey(didn't find a single one)

But I did find some super cute

To add to our Tree since I decorated GIRLY to begin with

I also bought a Maroon tree skirt

Since

The tree topper is…PURPLE

This was only half the bags I started with

OUR very girlish/ A&M
Christmas
tree

I was super excited about it…

We are now at Satuday & I spent most of the day cleaning the house

Finishing Christmas Decorating

& my favorite wrapping all the gifts!

 

TAAAADAHHHHHH!

MERRY SATURDAY EVERYONE!

Unitl next time…MISS WHIT

What I'm liking Wednesday

What I'm liking... this Wednesday!



I like my beautiful Allred family Christmas card I received in the mail today. This family has brightened my life in so many ways! Love them dearly! Thanks for adding me to your mailing list & being the first card on my fridge!!!




Next, my text from my wonderful aunt about my absolutely precious, loving, full of life little cousin Riley who has the cutest stories!



My newest reading find! Yes-I am actually going to read a book! & I can't wait!



Even though I spent part of this week sick, and they are sending some tests of about my thyroid, they also put me on a sleeping pill, whoo hooo! I know if I would have listening to a certain someone an gone to the doctor before I actually got sick, then I might have not gotten sick!
Yes-babe I know. YOU WERE RIGHT.


Last but not least I'm liking that I have a wonderful man, two supporting families, beautiful friends(& some of their kiddos kiddos) a precious puppy, a cute little castle, and two jobs to support it all!!






































I would like everyone to think about and count your blessings because even though you have them now you never want to take them for granted because you could wake up and one day they be gone!

My favorite quote….

I BELIEVE IN PINK

I BELIEVE THAT

LAUGHING IS THE CALORIE BURNER

I BELIEVE IN KISSING

KISSING A LOT

I BELIEVE
IN

BEING STRONG WHEN

EVERYTHING SEEMS

TO BE GOING

WRONG

I BELIEVE THAT HAPPY {GIRLS}

ARE THE PRETTIEST {GIRLS}

I BELIEVE THAT TOMORROW

IS ANOTHER DAY AND

I BELIEVE
IN MIRACLES

-Aubrey Hepburn 

 

 

She said it best…

Especially for us {girls}

I need to post this piece

To where I can read it every morning

I am sometimes exhausted

Most of the time I feel defeated

I go and go and go

I do everything for everyone else { but that's what I enjoy (most)}

When do I stop and make time for me?

I get sad

I get lonely

I work hard for what I have { & I am proud of it}

I have those days where

I struggle with why I am such a people pleaser. Why I can't get it all together, like I feel like others around me do. Why I worry more than others do. Why I can't believe in the difference I make in some peoples' lives

{Why, why, why??}

BUT… then I remember

I do believe in laughing

I do believe in kissing my love when he comes home and goes away

I am strong

I do have my life together

When I am happiest…I feel like I am on top of the world

& I do feel prettiest

I  do miss him…when he is away{but I am glad I have him to miss}

I do appreciate him

I am thankful for him everyday

I do give him my best {because he deserves it}

I do BELIEVE in him

I will have my family and dreams…

But when the time is RIGHT.

Tomorrow IS another day

I believe in miracles {I am living proof-they do exist}

So tonight I will brush off my worries & BELIEVE that sometimes GOD gives this {girl} a plan for my future & I owe it to {him} to get there.

 

 

So maybe…it's me!

Goodnight world.

Until next time…
