I vlogged.

I'm shocked too, I know!  I've considered in a looooooooooong time but never had the nerve.  Well, Allie & Jenna took my nerves and spit on them.  They told me I had to do it.

I give in to peer pressure still.. at 28 years old.  Jeez.

Just kidding, ladies.  It was fun!!! And I cannot wait to sit down and watch all the lovely ladies do their thing, on camera.  I think it's too cool.  It allows you to get to know some ladies even more than we already do! And we are all nosey and can appreciate that! =)

So, here I am....

Whew, **Wiping sweat** first Vlog- CHECK!  =)

I'm linked up over with Erin & Ashley.

Who is doing this next??? :)

WILW

     
It's Hump Day, friends!  Can you believe that next week is NOVEMBER!??!

Moving ahead..

[I'm loving..] that I FINALLY got the Internet to cooperate and I can finally read blogs at work again.  Shh! :)  But just getting to do this at home was getting on my nerves. ha!

[I'm loving..] It is freaking HALLOWEEN! 

[I'm loving..] My new creamer I branched out and tried. #yum
                     
[I'm loving..] that tomorrow is Thursday and ya'll know what at meansssssssssssssss... time with my honey! Yayaya!

[I'm loving..] that this weekend is the Grand Illumination here in town.  There will be a post on this coming later next week!

[I'm loving..] My baby's handiwork.  He built this for his room, and of course still has to paint it and stuff, but this was made out of broken down pallets.  As in, re-purposing some wood.  I told ya'll he was perfect for me.  Now, if he would only get on MY list of wants ;)

[I'm loving..] that I have a whole bucket of Halloween candy sitting on the desk next to me.... that I COULD eat.... But I'm not.

[I'm loving..] all these group text conversations.. hahahhah.  Ya'll all know who you are! ;)

[I'm loving..] This book I'm currently reading.  It's not a typical read for me, but I'm enjoying a little step out of my reading comfort zone.
                      

& as always...
[I'm loving..]  My man more every day!

Spook Day!

Did you know today is my FAVORITE day of the year?  Well, it is.  Yes, I'm being serious.  No, I don't get to go to Halloween parties or dress up anymore but I still have a love for Halloween! 

I'm sporting my cute Halloween shirt today at work!

I'm not sure exactly what attracts me to this day so much, because I'm a big chicken when it comes to scary things.  In fact, I've lived in my house for 4 years and I tried to watch a scary movie one time (in broad daylight) and had to cut it off because I got weirded out.  So, I'm not a freak when it comes to that stuff.  Now, don't get me wrong- if someone else was going to be in the house I'd be fine with it.  But let's be honest- my two dogs hide BEHIND me when someone knocks on the door.  #I'mscrewed

I wish I could get out and go to some haunted houses and cornmazes, etc.  I used to love getting together with a group of friends and going to things like that, but now I don't ever get to and I really do miss it.  It's just fun to get together and "get scared" even when you know it's just people dressed up in masks and messing with you for fun. 

So, on my agenda tonight is going to see Jenna bugg.  She will be dressed up as...  No, I'm not telling.  Wait for pictures! :) And hopefully I get some cute pictures of B's nephews tonight as well!

LOVE LOVE LOVE getting to see all the kiddos in their get-up.  I can't wait to get to dress my future kid up and take a million pictures. 

Hope you all have a fantastic, spooky day! 

This Witch is O-U-T! :)

For the nosey folks..

Like myself, haaaaaaaa!  Another question..

Today it's going to be...

8. What are five passions you have?

Okay, let's see. 

1. God. - What's there not to be passionate about?  I have SO much to be thankful for that only He provided me, or the path to lead me there.  There are no words or amount of prayer for me to ever repay His love for you & me.

2. My boyfriend.

He came into my life and took my breath away.  Now he serves as not only my boyfriend, but my best friend, my future, my past I always dreamed of, and the brightest part of my days.  I love you, B.  You are the man of my dreams.

3. My Family/Friends. - I don't know where I'd be without all the love, help, and shoulders to cry on along the way.  Every single one of you is a gift from God to me.  

4. Reading.  I just love getting lost in a "different world".. :)

5. Cooking.  I've always liked it, but hated cooking for just me.  So now that I have B in my life, and another tummy to feed- I get to do it more often!

What are some of your passions?

Weekend FUN!

It's that time again!  I'm linking up and showing you where I spent my weekend!

[Friday night], I spent with my honey!  I fixed up some Doritos Chicken Casserole and we took a few minutes to go visit my parents' before coming home to relax and watch a Duck Dynasty marathon.  We usually spend Friday nights watching Diners, Drive-In's, and Dives.  I know, we are such party animals.  But I enjoyed our night together, as always. 

[Saturday] was a fun-packed day!  I got B off to work with his coffee and then finished watching the last few episodes of Revenge.  ((Sidenote: I am crazy obsessed with this show now!))  After that, I got up and dressed for Andrea's wedding.  

I'll let the pictures do the talking for that..

My mom looked so pretty!

My OOTD!

Andrea & Jenna

When I got home, I picked up dinner for me and the honey and we ate and watched the State/Bama game.  Booo.... I am an Ole Miss fan, but I gotta admit that I'm starting to get a weak spot for some State, thanks to the boyfriend. 
Aaaaaaaaaaand, of course, I had to make the honey and me have another picture!  And we sort of matched.. ha!

                                              Gosh, I love this man. Entirely.

[Sunday] I got to sleep in and then meet Mom & Jenna bugg for church.  These two lovely ladies matched today, so I had to get their picture! Of course!

    
What a blessed weekend this has been!  I got to see my precious niece, spend time with my mother, witness two people commit themselves to a lifelong marriage, and spend time with the love of my life, B.  

I can't thank God enough for all He does for me.  Daily.

How was your weekend?

Pumpkin-Palooza!

It's that time of the year, pumpkins are on doorsteps, on tables as centerpieces, and just everywhere in between.  Personally, I love it.  Halloween is my favorite holiday of the year.  I love seeing the excitement in little kid's eyes, and I love all the "fall" that Halloween brings with it. 

With that said, it's time to talk about some pumpkin fun!  This past Sunday, Mom and I took Jenna to the pumpkin patch for her very first time! You want to know what's more exciting than that?!!  It was MY first time.  I've had pumpkins every year, but never went to a patch and got one.  Kind of weird since this is my favorite holiday and all, but it just never happened.  So I was just as excited as she was!

While we waited for a group to arrive, we played on the playground. 

Jenna-bugg loves a good playground and she was having a ball at this one!

We also got to feed the goats while waiting.  She wasn't quite sure of this at first, but I got her some feed and she was excited to see how fast they would lick her hand and even suck on her finger!  OKAY, so was I.... sue me. :)

Then it was time to hit the patch, and boy was it fun!

It was so much fun getting to see her little world light up, and be there to experience it with her and my mom.  Love these two ladies to pieces!

And I love, love, love this picture of the three of us! Definitely will be in a frame!

What a fun day we had at the Pumpkin Patch & I already can't wait until next year's adventure!

Jenna isn't the only one I've had fun with pumpkins with though!  Tuesday night, B and I went over to his sister's house and carved pumpkins with the boys.  I really do think I was as excited as them! 

Here's a few shots from the night...


Donna, B, & Myself carving with some anxious boys looking on!




Donna and her "Baby Tooth" pumpkin! HA!



Myself & Mr. Buckteeth.




Bryce & his excitement! ha! Love this kid!




Me and the future nephews!



My man & I and our boys!

 We had SUCH a good time picking faces, eating candy corn/cupcakes, and carving the pumpkins!  I love spending time with B's family so it was a wonderful night in my opinion!  Love the family I will one day marry into! :)

Hope you are all getting to enjoy some fabulous "PUMPKIN TIME" this season!




Love, love, love this little lady!



HAPPY FALL Y'ALL!

It's Ok!

  [It's OK..] that I really am ready for this week to be over. It has seemed SO LONG.   [It's OK..] that my housework has went to next to nothing this week.  I've been on Netflix like a crazy woman catching up on Revenge.  Season One done last night,  & I start on Ep.1 of Season 2 sometimes this weekend!   [It's OK...] I don't know what we are having for dinner tonight... yet.  But I should start figuring it out.   [It's OK..] to drink Dr. Pepper.  'Nuff said.   [It's OK..] to love blogging.  You ladies are awesome!   && last but certainly not least..   [It's OK..] to want to stop time on Thursday nights while I get to see my honey!

Brad's Birthday!

I'd be lying if I said this wasn't one of my favorite little boys in the world!  Brad Alex is such a cutie!  This past Saturday was his THIRD birthday party!  That's so crazy to me, because I remember his second birthday party.  It was right after B and I had met and started talking, and now here we are a year later and I love this kid as my own!

Brad's party was "Firetruck" themed this year, so what other to do than have a real firetruck at your party?  Yep. :) He did.

I'll let the pictures do the talking.. it's much better than any words I can conjure up! HA!

I was just snapping pictures of the little man & the festivities!

The turnout was great.  You can definitely tell that little man is loved! He had friends, family, and plenty of playmates to entertain his as the night went on. 

Happy Birthday, Cutie!
