Happy New Year!

 New Years eve I was once again privileged to spend with Katie Marie and her family! Originally I was going to babysit so her and the hubs could go out to dinner and then we'd have our movie night but Roberto wasn't feeling well so he stayed in bed and Katie and I had a girls night (with the bubbies) I thought my outfit was cute alo it's really dark in this pic. A blue striped sweater and skinny jeans!
 This year we have a new bubbie to the mix! Ben did great on his first new years and was a great cuddler with me! We had pizza hut, and then watched Made of Honor, one of our fave movies, a reality show on TLC which I just can't even go into. words can't express. seriously. And of course we switched over to Dick Clark's New Year's rockin eve.. This is prolly my fave part of our nye tradition because we make fun of everyone on there, hello lady gaga i'm talking to you! Since we both primarily listen to Christian Music and KLOVE we usually have NO CLUE who these ridiculous people are but it makes for great entertainment!

 By far the funniest thing this year was brought on by a report I saw on CNN earlier that afternoon. I had no clue that once people got to Time Square they went into shutes and were unable to USE THE BATHROOM for the rest of their time there untill midnight. Crazy. Just crazy. Well I had to share that with Katie and much hilarity ensued. Such as Katie's FABULOUS comment about what would happen after the ball dropped "The running of the bladders" oh I laughed and laughed and laughed some more. We were dying. And I will admit that during the 2 hours we watched the show we both went to the bathroom twice. I swear everytime i saw the crowds I just felt like i had to pee. poor poor people..
And don't even get me on Dick Clark. Bless his heart he was as tan as Snooki!

It was super fun and I love that Katie and I can just die laughing over one word or two. The power of a close and long friendship! I look forward to many more New Year's eve's with her!! Happy 2012!!

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...

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...

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 ...
