This and that

I've been pretty busy lately.
D_baby has started cheer leading again this year. We all have a good time going to the games.

Honey took me out to see the houses ( he works for a company that builds custom homes) a couple weeks ago. Here's a couple pictures.










I'm still looking for a house I just haven't found the "perfect" one. It has to be out there some where!

Some of our best friends got married last weekend. Just a small wedding though it was beautiful. The reception was at the casino the next night. A good time was had by all. There was a really good band called rough cut. My husband had WAY too much to drink and spent most of the night dancing! As did the bride! We didn't get home till about 3:30. After the bar closed we went to the casino. Just glutton for punishment.

I got the kids pictures taken this week and was pretty happy with the turn out. I was extremely worried about the monster beings he doesn't like to sit in one place for more than 5 seconds at a time, but they did really good and used it to their advantage.


What have all of you been up to?

Blah, crazy stories

Today is dreary and I feel this way. Just one of those days. I should go home cuz work is boring. Not a lot going on but I have to stay cuz I'm the late shift person!(even though I had to come in early today) Good Gawd listen to me wine. YES I WANT CHEESE TOO. Only 3 more hours to go!


Had a good weekend. On Saturday my friend and I had a bridal shower for another friend. It was quite fun not tooo goofy though. We had the guests answer questions about the bride, make penises out of play dough, and make the bride a wedding dress out of garbage bags.

Saturday evening D_baby had a pep rally Honey took her cuz I was finishing up with the shower. By the time I got there D-babys' team had already gone. Damn I suck. We stayed and watched the rest of the teams then went home.



























We had some friends over which really isn't anything new they usually appear at least once during the weekend. It's so nice to have another couple to do things with even if it's just sitting in the yard bullshitting. They also have two children 11 and 9
Both boys and our kids get along great! we were sitting out in the lawn and "honey decides to tell them about the "haunted house" up the hill. Its not really haunted I'm even sure people live there but the kids about die sitting on the edge of there seats every time he speaks. So before I know it They're all going up there " the 2 men the 2 boys and D_baby" The monster was so disappointed he didn't get to go but hes "too little" About 20 minutes later the whole lot of them come running out of the woods screaming freaked out cuz they "saw something" which I'm about one hundred percent sure was "nothing" Larry swears to me (while winking out of one eye so the kids can't see) that he saw someone and it wasn't good.
Now lets discuss this a little cuz really my husband embellishes ALOT the children love it now don't get me wrong the basis of the story is correct just not the ALL the details. For example we went hunting for frogs once and there were a Whole bunch of them dead. The mud was really deep and I got stuck honey had to get me out I lost BOTH my shoes in the mud and I had mud up to knees and it was alot of fun. Now here is where Honey would tell the kids that the mud caused us to have boils on our legs and that puss ran from them for days! I know pretty gross but they eat the shit up. The crazier the better!

Questions from what where you expecting!

My friend Holly over at What where you expecting asked us ladies to do this. So here it is.


A little back ground first!

We eloped I was 17 and PG. At the time I didn't really tell to many people because I didn't want them to try to talk me out of it because we were so young. I knew what I wanted and I knew it was him. So my mom came with us to the court house to get our marriage lisence( in the state we lived in you had to be 18 or have a parent sign for you) beigns that we did it so quickly (decided to get married on a thursday and did it on that sunday) We didn't have a lot of money I was still in High school ( and for all you haters out there YES I did graduate from High school thank you very much! Not only is Honey an amazing husband hes a great dad too!) We bought a matching set of rings from the pawn shop.

How did he propose? Or did he at all? Well I wouldn't really call it a purposal. We had a discussion about it one day.
Honey: so do you... do you wanna get married?
Me : Sure when are you talkin about?
Honey: How bout this weekend?
Me : Sounds good to me.

How long were you together before he did? Three years

When did you get married (Time of year, date, time of day, etc)? March 24th 1996 in the early afternoon. We were married in my moms living room. LOL It was a really cold, snowy day there was about one and a half feet of snow on the ground!

Was it big or small? Did you regret doing it one way or the other (i.e. if it was small and intimate, do you regret not having a larger celebration?)? IT was VERY small. I don't have any regrets about the we I did it but I would've liked to have more of my family and friends there.I would have liked to have worn a dress too. Doesn't work too well being really big and PG.

Where did you register? What's the best gift you received? we didn't register! My family had a "wedding reception" for us nothing big just family. We got a lot of kitchen stuff. I still have most of it.

Who was your Maid of Honor? Do you still have contact with her? we didn't have brides maids or best men. My mom signed for me and my dad signed for my husband. I had one of my friends there and my sister. My husband invited one of his best friends. And yes I still talk to my mom I love her. Even though we were so young I love him and wouldn't change anything about the way we did things.






What were your colors? No colors My mom did make us a beautiful cake ( she was a cake decorator at the time. The BEST if I do say so my self. Not that I'm biased or anything HEHE) I still have the topper it sits in my china cabinent. "Pictured"

Any tips for cutting corners you can offer? no not really Nothing short of eloping sorry!

Any advice for the bride-to-be? Have fun! ,do what makes you and MM happy.

We are still happily married and I wouldn't trade it for anything!

SIDE NOTE: While we were in Vegas he purposed to me again. We were just getting out of bed the last morning we were there and he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him again. I said yes and that I wanted to wait till we got home cuz I wanted our daughter to be there. He slowly slid the ring (yes I got a second ring LOL) on to my middle TOE ( yes ladies and gents ) I said TOE. I thought this was unique and very sweet I loved it!
We'll be doing that someday but no rush we have the rest of our lives! Even then I don't want it to be big just a few friend and our families. END SIDE NOTE
