April's Wedding- Time to go Home!!

After we left the Reception Katie and I headed to McDonalds to change our clothes. We did not get the Frozen Strawberry Lemonade and I was a little sad about that because apparently thats only sold in Michigan right now. :( Sadness. Here we are fixin to get on the road! I think this might be our second best picture! We were really workin it that day!!
We passed a John Deere place so of course I had to take a picture for my brother and Dad. Long live JD!!

INDIANA!!!! Indiana never looked so good!!


OK funny story. Well two actually. As we were getting close to the toll road Katie told me to look at the ticket and see how much it would cost. So I look and find out its 1.60 a reasonable price. But I am immediately SHOCKED and HORRIFIED by the price to go to Portage!! Stinkin 4.70!!! I immediately said HEY!! Thats Highwa.. hahahaah HIGHWAY ROBBERY!!!!!! I got the humor right as it was coming out of my mouth. We laughed for a solid two miles. Possibly more. Tears were coming out of my eyes and I was gasping for breath so I really wasn't paying attention to where we were. Sadly this type of thing happens all the time. My brain and mouth aren't exactly connected!!
After that hilarity we came up to the toll booth, we were listening to one of my FAMOUS mix cd's and ol 50 cent was singing about his birthday. Katie looks at me and says, should we bump it? Its an old guy!! I said hey its your mini van, go for it!!
So we rolled up to the toll booth, 50 Cent bumpin it from her Mini Van Speakers and the look on that old guys face=PRICELESS!!




The final semi interesting thing that happened on the way home was passing where WNDU broadcasts from. My parents live North enough that they get South Bend TV, so I have grown up watching WNDU 16! Too bad we couldn't stop and chat with Maureen McFadden and Rick Mecklinberger! :(


I Just have to say that Katie Marie is a great Chauffer and a fun road trip buddy! We laughed SO HARD on the way home that we should have had 6 pack abs the next day from all the muscles used! She was a great sport to go with me and put up with my nefarious craziness!!

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...
