It Tuesday! Time for Top 2 Tuesday Top 2 Celebrity Hairstyles 1.Jessica Simpson always has the best hair! This one is my favorite though. I wish I could have the curls that she has on ends of her hair. They look so natural=)   2. Everytime I see Julianne Moore I always ask  myself how does she keep it so shiny and red. I love the way it looks on her. It looks like she wakes up with her hair already done=)          Dont forget to link up with The Undomestic Momma

GTKY Sunday

Dont forget to link up with Mannland5  to join in on the fun=) 1. what/who inspires you? Husband,daughter,Google Images=) 2. what was the last thing you bought yourself? hm....I hardly ever buy myself anything but I wanna say I bought myself a Sprite.=) I had a craving. 3. would you rather watch a movie in a theater or from the comfort of your own home? Movie Theater,only because when Im at home watching a movie I tend to get up and get snacks in the middle of the movie and end up missing out on parts. 4. household chore you don't mind doing? Laundry, you just pop it into the washer, wait for it to finish then go into the dryer, its the stuff that you do after that is not fun. 5. coffee or tea?  Im not a coffee person, and I really dont think I ever will be, so for sure Tea . \ 6. what could you eat every day and not get sick of?? Hmm.. I wanna say sandwhiches. They are delicious for an everyday meal. 7. what's the last book you read? Im a romantic kind of reading g

My Wii games

Image
This week Ive been working really hard on all of my presentation and my papers and whole bunch of stuff that I have to do for school.  I told myself this week that I was going to bum it and have some fun. Buuttttt being semi broke(not really I just dont like to touch my saving), I really just wanted to watch movies and just catch up on my Wii games. We've had our Wii for about a year now, We were going crazyy looking for one, because for some reason everyone was buying one at the same time we were. The first Wii game we bought  was Mario Party 8! I love the previous games of Mario Part. This one is alot different becuause this time it's with a Wii remote which gets getting used to, but anyways I need to play this game more, I have not really explored this game. So that will be in my to do list for this wekend.       This one is probably like our hardest game EVER! Jaime is pretty good at it, because he grew up playing with Mario Bros game. I on the other hand was

Nick Lachey & Jessica Simpson

The other day when I was in the library, thats where I live now, I was doing  some last minute work before I headed home, I stummbled upon the song   This I swear from Nick Lachey. I dont know if ya'll remember the TV show 'Newlyweds' from Mtv? It was my favorite show. It reminded me of me and Jaime(everything does), only reason is because Jaime always thinks he's right and well, I can be a little on the airheaded side ,which Im sure the hubbs gets a kick out of it when it does happen=) Anyways I have all seasons. When I head that they split, I felt so bad, I swear, it felt like they had let me down. Sad to say. The world is not right without them together. I secretly wish they get back together. I loved them together.. I thought they would be the celebrities to set the example for everyone else that Marriages do work. Thanks for reading about my wishful thinking and sort of a random post=) Happy Friday=)

Crazy Random Happenstances  letft me a comment on one of my post and I went over to check her blog out cuz I read everyone blogs that visit mine, and she had this photo up. It tore me up when I saw this photo. Made me smile and tear up when I saw this photo.

Top Two Tuesday

Image
This weeks Top 2 Tuesday is perfect! The other day I was having second thoughts on buying our first house, I mean it's a huge step right?lol It's funny how Im having cold feet buying a house but I didnt have cold feet before I  married Jaime... I find that hilarious!!! 5 months to go till we start the process of our 1st home=) Anyways I am looking around already for houses(I probably should not:/) and Im already thinking of what exactly we are going to be looking for, we know 3 bedrooms and 2 baths is the most that we want from a house, the least is 2 bedrooms and 1 bath & just build whatever we want later on the years, which btw we dont plan on spending our lives here. We also are looking for a fixer-upper, we want to create our own home=) ahhhh..to dream=) So anyways on to Top 2 Tuesday 1. Megans Room- for sure this room is going to be our favorite room to decorate together=) He does not want me to get started on planning this room because he wants to be part o

Dont Judge me Im only Human!

Lately I have been on etsy.com looking at Bows I can buy. Lets be honesly some of them are on the expensive side. I used to make some of Megans and some of the ones she still wears that I have made are my favorite. But since I have started school it's not easy to sit down  for 2-3 hours at a time to do these bows. So I have to actually search for the ones that  I think are reasonably priced. Cuz lets face it my husband would kill me if he knew I  spent more than $10.00 on just one bow. So today when I spoke with my husband I told him that I bought some bows for Megan and he was like "uh you mean you made them". hahaha! (oh Jaime you make me laugh!) I bought some news bows for the princess because  the ones I have are kind of old already,  so this week I will be  putting some bows in boxes  just in case I have another girl down the road. These are the bows I got for her=) I even got a certain percentage off! SCORE! A couple of days ago I asked my husband if I cou

Bargain shopper

Image
I have probably mentioned this before but I am a huge bargain shopper,  I CANNOT buy things that are regular price, of course  if there are thing that I absolutely need then of course  I have to buy the retail price but lets say clothes or little knick nacks(sp?) yeah I have to always go with the stuff on clearance. Today for example I had to get out of my house,because I have been cooped up here because of my surgery but I needed some shopping time. So My sister and I went to Khols to just see what was what, so of course the first thing I do, Is head to the toddler section. Uh hello 50%,60%,70% OFF!! I mean I bought alot of clothes for her, and I never paid for the retail price! I love shopping in the clearance section! & last night...... Mandy from My Life in the Making  posted about a photo book company that she really liked awhile back, I finally decided to  put all my pictures together and I made my first book!! It took 3 hours to process, but when I was done they were cha

First Surgery

Dont think I blogged much this week,which is weird because it is Spring Break, but now it's coming to an end:( awww. Yesterday I got my gallbaladder removed. I can tell you one thing, I dont remember anything except that I heard the nurses say ok you need to slide over to this bed, and i did and then I looked up and then I was out. Next thing I remember is I am in another room and my dad walks in. It was so weird not being able to get up and what not. I had the worst pain on my back but they said it would happen because they put air inside me to move around my organs. I would show you a picture of my chest but It does not look pretty hehe. My sister bought me some balloons with a card and a Cosmo magazine:) It was pretty scary but I lived, I left a goodbye letter just in case something happened to me, and I ended up making my mom cry because she saw it with my rings and it was addressed to Jaime. It was sad,I didnt mean to make my mom cry. Ok on to good news: I went to see t

Keeping busy

Image
Waking up without you It doesn't feel right To sleep with only memories It's harder every night Sometimes I think I can feel you breathing on my neck <3 Framing Hanley I love that song, and when Im feeling sad this is the song I think of. There is something that I realized today while I was driving, I always keep myself busy,it's not very hard to do if you really put your mind to work. School takes up half my time, and megan the other half. But keeping busy does not mean that Im going to feel better about my husband not being home. For me it's just postponing the tears that eventually Im going to cry out anyways. So really Im just not crying as much as I would if I was not busy. If that makes sense. What I mean is it would be alot worse If I didnt stay busy I guess. Tomorrow I am going to Target and I also am  going to change my oil and get a sticker for my car. Im most likely going to get a two books to keep me busy while  Im waiting at the recovery r

Im hoping that the fritos dont pop:/ I am Loving that I have been sending Jaime a letter a day, It really hurt me when he told me that everyone was already getting letters and they had just arrived to their destination, but he had told me to wait,so I did.   Now he is gonna be showered with goodies and letters pretty soon:)  We both like to color our letters...Its tradition:) I am Loving that spring break is just 2 days away!! I will not be partying like most 22 year olds, I WILL be enjoying  Mommy and Megan time=) and for me thats gonna be the most enjoyable part of Spring Break=) I am Loving  that my teacher Mr.Murphy gave me a very good complement on my math work=)   He said that I am doing very good with my

Miscellany Monday

Ooo This Miscellany Monday is perfect I have so much to share:) Link up with Carissa . 1. USPS  I finally shipped off Jaime's carepackages! & I had the best feeling doing it again. I mean of course I wanted to cry right in front of everyone,  but I kept it together and just stared at the boxes like "you are going to my husband" kind of look. 2. Toy Story Disney on Ice I bought Megan 4 tickets to see Toy story on Ice in April. I'm super excited to take her. It's a huge toss up though if she is gonna be scared or really excited. I think we will be ok if they just stay on the rink:) hehe I invited my mom and my little sister to come with us, so that is why there are 4 tickets. I cant wait to blog about this:) 3.Army Wives I had watched one episode of Army wives and I hated it! Then I  thought on Friday maybe just maybe I could give it a try. So I looked on Netflix and to my surprise they have all seasons! So I am starting on Season 1 and I am loving

Top 2 Tuesday

Image
 Top 2 Things you've learned about relationships 1. Have a date night at least once a month . My mom told me this one, she always said to make time for each other because life can get in the way and you need to find time to be just together. One of our date nights with friends=) 2. Make decisions together Jaime and I learned this one from our parents. I dont think his parents and my parents make decisions together, both my parents like to be in charge which is why they bump heads all the time. We have learned from both of our parents. Making decisions together works very well in our case=)
