Oh my it's been over a month

...since my last post!  I am so sorry!  Life has been so crazy!  These last 9 hours of school really suck bad, and I am hating it more and more every day!  Thank the sweet Lord above, I only have 2.5 weeks left!

We have been so busy with going out of town almost every weekend.  We usually have one weekend a month to stay home, that's when I get to catch up on house stuff.  I kid!  But seriously, this weekend is it for April and I need to do some major spring cleaning.  I need to clean out closets (AGAIN) and down size.  I refuse to move all that crap AGAIN! 

I was hoping to do a weekend update with pics on Monday, but I forgot my cell phone at my sister's house on Saturday morning and we were too far west to turn around and get it.  Can you say media withdrawal?  I felt so naked!  So I didn't snap any pics but next weekend I will for sure!

Better get back to work!  Sorry I have been MIA lately, I promise it will get more regular once I am completely done with school!  Plus, I need to showcase all of my craft projects/new business stuff!!

Toodles!

Weekend Update, birthday update!

So Friday was my birthday, turning 31!  Not that different than 30, so I can live with it.  I am the oldest wiser one of my marriage, haha I kid I kid.  Well no, it's true!  Anyways onto my weekend...

Friday night, we ate a quick dinner at home and then headed to see Darius Rucker at the Hard Rock!  It was awesome!  We saw him last year with Thompson Squared and Lady A, it was glorious!!  The Joint is a smaller venue, and there wasn't a bad seat in the house.  I just wish he would have sang more of his new record!  But he did sing his staples, family traditions (the first country song he fell in love with) and his cover of Wagon Wheel, and last but not least, Purple Rain.  I love that song!  I sang my little heart out and it was great!  I picked up a shirt and we headed home. 

Saturday, my family came into town and we had a taco party!  I love me some tacos!  I had ordered my own birthday cake for me and Amy and it was delish.  Same cake we had at our wedding, I always spoil myself on my birthday!!  Bavarian Cream Cheesecake, yum yum yum!!

Saturday night, the little punk neighborhood kids decided to egg our house.  Let me tell you, I am not happy and will run over their basketball the next time it is in the street.  #pissed

Sunday, we took my sister and her family to the Home and Garden show.  It was fun but my BIL loves to do projects, so it took us forever to get out of the there.  He wanted to get every brochure and was planning his spring break activities. 

After they went home, we headed to my in laws to have birthday dinner, homemade lasagna and homemade Italian Cream cake...YUM

Isn't the stand to die for??  I love cake stands.  I have so many and we don't even eat cake that much!  I need to have a dessert party so I can display them all!!

That's it for me.  Oh and btdubs, I am not liking this daylight savings, I like my sleep!  I need to get back on a good schedule! 

Toodles!

To my sister on her birthday!!!

My oldest sister and I are three years and TWO days apart!!  We always had family birthdays together growing up and still do, it's just something we do!  Now, when we were little the birthday girl got a bigger present and then the other 2 would get something small....yeah we don't do that anymore, man I wish we did!  I would get presents all the time, no way, just in December and March! 

Amy and I aren't as close as Jess and I, but Jess and I are only 14 months apart.  We are a pretty close family tho!  We love spending time together and we always have a good time.  Even with 5 little kiddos running wild, we have a great time!  So this weekend, the crew is "East bounding down, loaded up and truckin" their way to T-town to celebrate!  I really am starting to get spoiled with them coming here for holidays, first Christmas, now my birthday!  Last year was the big 30 so it's not a BIG party as it was, but we are having taco bar and a fabulous cake....our wedding cake!  No no no, before you start wondering, I ordered a birthday cake from the same company that did our wedding cake, Ludger's, best cake in town!  So we will enjoy the Bavarian cream cheesecake this weekend and again when they make our fresh topper for our ONE YEAR in June!  Gosh, just three months away!!!

I say all of that to say this, I wish the bestest of birthdays to my big sis Amy!  You are a wonderful women and super at all you do!  I love you and can't wait to see you this weekend!!! 

Happy Birthday Amy!!!

Oh ma word ladies, it's March!!

Which means it's my birthday month!!! Yes, don't judge, I celebrate all month!  hahaha just titting!!  So anyways, I am super busy at work today and only have a quick min!  We are headed out of town tonight for a friends surprise 30th birthday party! Night in a hotelly with my honey, yes please!!  Then tomorrow it is off to see my sweet little girls in Stilly!!!  Look at little Cindy Lou Who!!!

Peace out, girl scouts!

February CaraBox Reveal

cara (car-rah) noun   :   beloved friend

 

Once again, I have joined the cool kids and participated in the CaraBox exchange.  If you want to read more about this and participate in future months, please visit Kaitlyn's blog!  She is an amazing blogger and always has this awesome linkup!  This month, we got partnered with people in our same state.  Shout out to all my OKie's!!!  I got to know the sweet, precious, Cowboy lovin Shae!  Visit her blog to see her box of goodies!  I loved getting to know her to be able to shop for her #ClubSexy box. 

 

I was also partnered with Holly over at The Oklahoma Pepplers!  We emailed back and forth and she sent me an amazing box!!  When I opened it, I was so excited!!!  She was so sweet and got the perfect day for my husband and me.  She must have done some investigating to get to know me pretty well!  She put two coffee mugs (in our exact wedding colors), a great candle, and some crosswords (because we are lame and enjoy doing those in bed!!).  Then she sent a recipe that was husband approved on her end that I can't wait to try!  She also sent a movie complete with popcorn and candy!  That's the perfect #ClubSexy for us!!!  We are very social during the week and our weekends are busy as well, so we always enjoy a good day/night in!!

 

Tuesday already, maybe the week will be faster!

So I wanted to update you on my life.  I went to the Dr on Valentine's Day to find out I have bronchitis and double ear infections....my ears didn't even hurt me!  I have only had 1 ear infection and I was 27!  So, our VDay was alittle laid back.  We had already planned on making dinner ourselves and so we just ate and snuggled watching our DVR.  I got Nathan a shirt and some baby foot stuff, along with balloons and he had gotten 14 days of valentine's from me starting on February 1st.  He got me flowers, candy and Darius Rucker tickets.  He is playing at The Joint inside the Hard Rock on my actual birthday!!!  We love him and said we would go anytime he plays in Tulsa.  Love me some Darius.  So this weekend we didn't do much either.  We hung out together on Saturday for our 8th month-a-versary!  We saw Identity Theft, pretty funny!  Sunday, I didn't leave the house.  Thank goodness I haven't missed any work due to this, but I sure am tired at night!

Best get back to work!  Toodles!
