Delicious Dave

The lovely Dave Matthews!

I'm a little tired and a little hoarse but my heart belongs to Dave!

She's baaacckkk....

The Kid has returned....and I for one could not be happier! She came home last night with at least double of what she left with...gotta love Grandma!! I will post some pics soon....

I did manage to watch the Real Housewives finale last night after she went to bed, and hubs too cause he hates that show with a passion! These girls are downright crazy...the drama that went on on that show is unbelievable. I know that I would not want to be on the receiving end of Caroline's wrath that's for sure!! And is it just me or does Theresa have the smallest forehead ever?!?!

I am super excited to go see Dave Matthew's tonight!! I love love love their music and couldn't be more pumped to go see him in person!

Impressive

I was reading one of the blogs that I love and she did a post on something that she did to impress her date. It made me think of a certain little incident when hubs and I had just started dating...

The Kid was 2 when hubs and I met. I was living with my mom and dad at the time so once things between us got serious he would spend a lot of time at my house. One such evening after The Kid had went to bed we were hanging out watching a movie and drinking a beer. Out of nowhere Hubs dared me to chug my bottle of beer...not being one to back down I said bottoms up. Of course I dominated the beer and drank the whole thing, which completely impressed him!! To this day we still laugh when it gets brought up, in part because that is something I never do and have never done since! Oh the things we do to impress the men in our lives!!

On a side note...I talked with The Kid this morning and she is having the time of her life in Chicago. She told me all about The Navy Pier, their hotel, and the scary cab driver that kept saying a naughty word "You know Mom....(then she proceeded to spell it very very quietly) F-U-C-K" I'm glad that she will look back on her trip and remember that of all things!
One more day till my sweetness is home!!

Got Mad Love For.....

This sweet girl....









I am spending time tonight and tomorrow getting The Kid ready for her big vacation with Grandma! She leaves tomorrow afternoon to head up to my mom's where the girls are going to take the train to Chicago and spend a few days. At the top of their list of places to go is

The American Girl Store!!!!

The Kid could not be more excited to go here. She has her dolls ready and is spending one of the days eating in the cafe, doing a photo shoot with her dolls, shopping in the store, and one of the dolls is even getting her hair done. Could there be anything better for a 9 year old?!?! Although I'm a little sad I'm not going I am super excited she is going to have this awesome vaca with my mom....these are the things you remember when your all grown up.

Crazy people

So I, along with lots of other people, had been following the blog about April's mom...... The woman who was carrying a terminally ill baby. Well it came out this week that it was all a hoax...some woman made the entire thing up. I mean who does that?!?! Well I was reading the website of one of the local papers and there was an article on her. She is a social worker for crying out loud. The whole thing just makes me sick....there are people out there that terrible things like this actually happen to and here we have some sick-o, attention seeking, crazy lady making this shit up. It's scary to think that she is in a field where it is her job to help innocent people.....I for one hopes she is removed from her position ASAP

My first award!

Well the lovely Trixie over at Swooning The City tagged me for the Honest Scrap award!! I am too excited as this is my first award...thanks Trixie!!!

1. Until a month before my wedding I had a huge gap in my front top teeth...by the grace of God I found out about bonding and now by looking at them you would never know!

3. I was adopted by my wonderful parents when I was 5 days old.

4. I would like to one day adopt a child
