Today JP and I had our first Sunday in a long long time where we were able to hang out at home alone and had nowhere to be. And that is exactly what we did… nothing! We did so much nothing that we don’t even have pictures of it… except this one.

I didn’t get lost. I didn’t fall off the side of the road. In truth, I’m not sure what happened other than it has been a rough couple weeks. Okay maybe rough is kinda dramatic. In the last three weeks I have been busy doing things. Living life to the fullest… and I have been [...]

I have been in Portland with JP since Sunday afternoon. When he asked me what I plan on doing while I’m here I told him that I just wanted to hang out with him. I had a few really good lazy days. Did I get anything done? Not really.. unless you count cleaning the apartment, [...]

I had the busiest 8 days last week so today was a day of recovery. No one except my favorite guy at home to talk to me. If I was a cat today I would probably look something like this. Or maybe this. Don’t get me wrong… I love my friends but I do need [...]

I have been a major blogger slacker this week. I can’t really say it’s because nothing is happening… trust me when I say I have kept myself busy. It has just been a I don’t feel like blogging week. In order to make up for my lack of blogging I went through my iPhone to [...]

A couple of weeks ago I received a jury summons in the mail. This is my first time being called for jury duty and as I was driving there this morning I realized that I really didn’t know anything about it. Don’t get me wrong I have seen lots of episodes of Law & Order [...]

Last night when I went to bed I told Lily that since it was my birthday I get to sleep as long as I want. Around 8:30 this morning I could hear her and Cameron out in the living room giggling about something. A few minutes later I heard my bedroom door opened really quietly [...]

On Friday a couple hours before I was suppose to go play softball I felt like I had a little bit of heartburn. I took some Tums thinking it would go away. As I drove to the field it got worse and worse instead of feeling better. When I got to the field I told [...]

I have not been eating crawfish my entire life. I’m not even going to lie to you like that. I have, however, been eating crawfish for a couple years… and I love love love it! I was trying to think back to the first time I tried it… and I can’t even remember. I am [...]

We had a big day yesterday so today we slept in. Then it just kinda spiraled out of control and we ended up doing nothing. If we do it sometimes when we are home why can’t we do it when we are on vacation… we literally stayed in bed all day. I love days like [...]

Last night I was on the phone with JP and we started talking about the future. Yes, the beautiful, exciting, wonderful, happy future! Sure a few years from now is hard to talk about because most of it is unknowns, but it is still fun to toss around ideas about what path we are going [...]

For as long as I can remember I have been tall. I have always heard the average height of a woman is 5’4″ and I got 6″ on all of those average people. But regardless of my height I still use a stool pretty often. We have a few of them around the house but [...]

I didn’t take a picture of anything today except for one of a crazy looking bug that I saw on the ground at my friend Arie’s house. I guess since I don’t have any other pictures to show you I will talk about what has been going on in my world. Today I signed up through Community [...]

This morning I didn’t get out of bed until I finished reading “The Help”. Every once in awhile I pick up a book that I can’t stop reading and this is one of them. Once I got to the end of the book I didn’t want it to be over. The movie has been out in theaters for a couple [...]

Do you have a smart phone? Have you downloaded the QR Reader yet? I am SOOOO 2011!! If it didn’t work for you please let me know!!

Happy Birthday To Me Happy Birthday To Me Happy Birthday Dear Meeeeee Happy Birthday To Me! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here (but we all know it’s only August)! Today was also Lilys 1st day of 3rd grade. I went down to the school and had lunch with her but now I [...]

Did you know that one of the nicknames for Seattle is The Emerald City? I believe the reason it is called that is because of the lush green trees. I lived in Seattle for 10+ years and I am still in awe of how big and tall the trees are. When Lily and I woke [...]

Today was one of our favorite days of our vacation so far. We took so many great photos that I have decided to break this up into two postings. We covered a lot of ground today and explored the greater NW portion of Michigan. When we woke up this morning the first thing Lily said [...]

In the last few days I have discovered that it is kinda cool to take a picture of our reflection. I am not sure why I have never thought to do this before?? These picture were taken in the window of a vacant building in downtown Manistee, MI.
