Take me Home, Back Country Roads....

 I headed home today to the Farm for a relaxing weekend with the fam! I snapped these pics, yes, while I was driving. Well, I was stopped at the one above and all of the other ones were out on a back country road where the only other vehicle I saw was a Tractor. So I think I was safe! :)  The rain clouds followed me all the way home.  This is the prime deer hitting spot. I have yet to hit one here, or at all! but I have been with other people, ahem, MOM, here when they have hit deer.  This spot is where I think my brother paid for 90% of his college tuition. Digging people out of the ditch with his tractor during the winter. Fools never slow down!  Soooo close.....  WHOOOO HOOOOOO!!!! Precious and the boys say Hello!!

The week in review

 I really have enough pictures for 2-3 posts, but alas I am lazy and it's been a weird week, so here is everything fun that went down! I started off at Church Sunday morning, no pics of that, but after church I headed for another fave place, the Pool! I wore SPF 70 and I'm proud to say I didn't get burnt! YEAH! The Pool closes next weekend so I'm hoping to visit it at least 2 more times!  Here I am Monday, waiting for a new student. I was a hit with her, partially because I taught her the first line of Jingle Bells, and partially because she saw my shirt from her car seat and apparently thought it was pretty. Her Mom said she was commenting on how cute my shirt was as they parked! I was cracking up!  I bought one pair of sandals this summer, and these were it. I love these shoes! They are soooo comfy and beige and go with everything!!!  While strolling thru Target Tuesday I saw this sweater. So cute! Look at the little zipper it has! So perfect for...

The week in phone pics

 I really need a snappier title for these posts but oh well.  So I have an addiction to Java Jo'z. Namely, their Moccachinos. They are soooo yummy and so much better than Starbucks! I love them! I had to go get one on Tuesday as I had once again stayed up too late, most likely reading, and was nearly falling asleep while teaching my lessons.  Ignore the lipstick on my straw.  I took this because I was entertained one day, I'll let you guess which one??!! while I was drying my hair. Curly hair blow drying does not look like straight hair blow drying. The weird poses and my hair whipped across my head are pretty funny sometimes. If I ever get married my husband will be entertained or frightened, not sure which, at my daily hair styling. He may also get lung disease from the copious amounts of hairspray I have to use but oh well!  One night I got a massive hand cramp from a gift I was making. I write everyday on the assignment sheets I give to my...

Life according to my phone..

 Some random pictures of the last week or so. Last week I was on the way to my Chiropractor when I saw one of the trucks from the construction company I worked at for a few years. Katie Marie and I have this inside joke that when we see one the trucks (there are tons of them!) we take a picture and send it to the other one. I nearly ran into them trying to get a good picture of this truck.  This picture color isn't that great, but I got this frame at a garage sale, and my mom painted it a teal color to match my living room. I put a new picture of Snugglemuffin in it and I love it! It's home is actually in my entertainment center. But it was too dark to take a pic.  While at Dollar Tree this weekend (yes I have a super exciting life, try not to be jealous?) I found this super adorable bowl! I have needed something for my veggies and fruits, so I grabbed it! Never mind that it doesn't match my Coke kitchen. Its sooo cute!!!  I have had a hold on this boo...

Weekend Wrap-Up

So I am a little late to the whole weekend wrap up post, and it's not because I was busy today! On the contrary I have been up since 9:30 am, cooked two meals, cleaned the final boxes out of my spare room closet-more on that later, and watched way too much Sister Wives. Ok so maybe I was legitimately busy, except for the last item. On to it!  I had a great weekend! Friday at her lesson Taya told me about the huge garage sale that was going on at her church the next day. She had been working there all week, helping get set up, ect. They were raising money for a future missions trip for the teens and I could not pass that up! So I got up way early for a Saturday and I was so happy that I did! Taya carried around all of my books, bless her heart, I got 11 books and they were up to her eyeballs literally!!! I also got the super cute basket she's holding-to give to my Mom. I also got the red tulips and a cute vase as well! And I only paid 4.00 for all of it! I am holding ...

Life in Phone Pics

 Can I just say how much I appreciate the fact that my new phone takes so much better pictures than my old one?! I have been using my phone for almost all of my pics! And bonus, no purple hair! Above is a new dessert I made. A Smores Cookie Bar. It was yummy. I had some and then realized I would eat the entire thing if I kept it. So I gave 90% of it away to my students. This just cracked me up. Last weekend when I was elevating my feet I obviously had the lights off and yet my toes were so neon pink that you could still see them in the darkness!  My toes weren't the only thing pink on my body. My sunburn was of an epic proportion. now it has started to peel. Everywhere. Even my arms. yuck. I'll spare you from that! Oh well, at least my hair looked cute here!  Yes, I am really showing you a picture of my cabinet. Last night I decided to totally move all but one of my cabinets. Erm. or rather the insides of them. My dishes and glasses used to be in th...
