I could watch rugby all day

There are certain sports that I really don't like to watch. Here's a few. Sorry to anyone who just absolutely loves these sports. - American football- not fast paced enough. For example, a 50 min. game lasts 4 flippin' hours. -baseball- fun to play, but not to watch. -basketball- I guess out of all on the list I can tolerate this the most. -golf- boring. -nascar- how many times can you really watch cars go around a track? Now, there are some that, like I said, I could watch all day. Rugby, and here is the reason why. Jonny Wilkinson (my new boyfriend) England's captain and kicker. Come on ladies, you could watch him all day too. Another reason why I like rugby over say American football is as follows... -fast paced -there are no time outs or huddles -they still tackle, but don't wear any pads ( so you can see their wonderfully sculpted bodies ;0) -in order to score a "touch down" you actually have to touch the ball to the ground. All I can say is that I am...

Behold...

The house is painted! We love having such wonderful parents who will drop anything and come & paint on a Saturday. I didn't take pictures of the all the guys who came & painted the top half of the house. You know who you are... thank you SO much! After we finished painting, it was time to rake up the leaves. Boy oh boy do we have a tone a leaves! I hope everyone is have a fabulous fall so far. I truly can't believe that Thanksgiving is 2 weeks away. I love this time of year.

Hoedown!

Well hello there! Long time, huh? I have been SO excited for this here post and so I won't keep you (or should I say me) waiting any longer. Every year, me and my family, put on a Halloween party and this years theme was Wild West Hoedown. Such a huge success! I can't believe that 5 years have gone by since we started this tradition. Sorry for those of you who couldn't make it. Here is some of he fun you misses. Delicious food Fun music A Treasure hunt with a scary guy guarding the treasure ;) Great line dancing ( thanks Carrie!) The best friends and family ever! Enjoy just some of the pictures! The End.

Expiration Date

So, I read The Time Traveler's Wife. Loved it. Completely different from anything I have ever read, which is a good thing. I would recommend to read this with a few warnings. #1- One of the main characters is a time traveler (duh) and it jumps around a lot (really) and at some points there is more than one of this character i.e. Henry is 42 & 35 at the same time. Just a wee bit confusing at times. #2- There is a bit of language (mainly the F word) #3- Their marriage seems to thrive on a lot of sex. And the author likes to describe it. I do believe I will see this movie and I hope it will make more sense now that I have read it. Question Time If someone you knew (and loved) knew the day they were going to die, would you want to know? Explain please. Next book on the list... Okay, I know I said that The Hunger Games was next, but I have yet to purchase it. I will very soon. Has anyone read the next in the series? I would like to know if it is good. Some of my Co-workers were tal...

Thinking about...

Do you ever lay in bed trying to go to sleep and you can't turn your brain off? Well that's me... every night. Here are a few of the things that have been on the brain lately. Friendship Jessica & Ezra My dear friend Jessica visited me the other day. She now lives in Texas so I rarely see her and I am so happy she made time to see me. p.s. I know you can't really see what she looks like, but Jessica is gorgeous and a wonderful mother :) I can't wait to see her again. Peach Days I have this reoccurring dream about being late for the the parade. It drives me crazy! When I say reoccurring I mean like once a month. Why, oh why? Halloween Hoe Down I am getting so excited for Chris & Jena's 5th annual Halloween party! The date is set for October 17th and the theme this year is a Wild Wild West Hoe Down. I will post more details soon, but mark your calendars now! Corvallis, Oregon We still have about 2 years before Chris is done with his bachelors, but we still w...
