Things I would like:

This post is largely in part of my husband's constant complaining that I'm impossible to by gifts for. You're welcome.

In random order (links provided):
1. Toms Shoes, Size six.

2. A black, medium North Face fleece OR a metal (color), medium Columbia Fleece..

*I think I actually prefer the Columbia jacket.

3. A blue, medium (unless yours is a medium, then I want a small) USI t-shirt.

4. This AWESOME Harry Potter coffee mug.

5. This amazingly beautiful necklace, but not until we decide baby #2s name.

6. This Baby Bag in black or brown (brown is on sale a lot).

7. Boyfriend Sweats, Small, Heather Charcoal

8. A zoo pass. I think that the Single Parent ($85) plus and Individual ($25) would be best. That way one of us can take Anna and the other can use the individual pass or like Kristy or my mom could go with me.

To be continued...

Day 3

A picture of the cast of my favorite tv show:



I'll admit, it was tough to decide between Parenthood, Sons of Anarchy, and Modern Family. When it all comes down to it, Parenthood takes the cake.

Day 2 (3) I already Fail

Day 2 - A picture of myself and the person I've been closest to the longest...

For some reason I couldn't edit Caleb out of the picture (sorry Caleb, not that you'll see this). I thought it was a fun picture of Isaac and I. Having moved twice, once after 5th grade and again after 8th, my friends changed a lot but I always had my brother. We used to spend a lot of time together and talk about everything. Obviously college, me getting married, and living in two different towns will change that but I'd like to think we're still good friends. I know I could call him any time if I ever needed anything and I hope he knows he could do the same. Welp, that's about all I have to say about that.

Maybe this will help me start blogging again...
Fifteen Facts
1. I am the mother of a precious little banana bug, Anna Jane.
2. I am married to a goofiest goofster, Drew, who I love dearly.
3. If I have one current regret in life it's having a college degree from the wonderful, Huntington University, and not using it. Looking to change that...
4. I slept with a teddy bear until I got married.
5. A box of Kraft Mac and Cheese and a giant glass of 2% milk are about all it takes to make me happy.
6. I hate my cell phone.
7. One of my favorite snacks is a piece of dark chocolate with a pile of peanut butter on top.
8. I love living in Fort Wayne.
9. I really enjoy spending time alone but I am so thankful for the amazing group of friends I gained marrying Drew. Couldn't ask for a better group of people!
10. I hate talking on the phone.
11. I am determined to fit into my favorite Banana Rep. jeans before next winter even if I only zip them up for a second, look in the mirror, and have to take them off because of extreme discomfort.
12. I am not a big sweets eater but I will totally spend the extra dollar or two on the good ice cream. Current fav: Breyer's Mint Chocolate Chip.
13.I'm having a hard time thinking of three more things.
14. I often wish that I was the same bubbly, annoyingly happy girl that I was until after High School. I'm fairly certian that I can pinpoint what changed me and if I could go back in time I would totally take it back. I have regrets and I don't necessarily think that everything happens for a reason. Sometimes we just make bad choices.
15. I love to grocery shop.

June 7th, 2010

People may start asking what I would like for my birthday this year. I've been thinking about it for a while and I think I have a finished list. I always tend to forget when I'm asked - like my mind goes blank when I'm put on the spot...or something.

1- Toms Shoes

I'm aware that they're out of stock. I also like the olive color but they don't have my size (6) currently available. I would take a gift card.

2- Subscription to Food Network Magazine


3- A hanging file cabinet

This one wouldn't have to be new - or necessarily even this particular cabinet. I'm just wanting at least two drawers.

4 - 5 pound weights - 2 of them

Not necessarily these specific weights but just 5 pound dumbbell weights.

5 - A house :)...okay, I don't want anyone to buy us a house (unless you were already planning on it, haha). But our lease ends in October and so we need to start looking at where we're headed next so money is always appreciated. :)


much love.

Dear God,

A lot of people have died lately. That blows for us still here...

p.s. time to bust out the Valley Song again.

Kinda Neat

I follow Huntington University on Twitter and finally got curious enough about something they were "tweeting" about to investigate.

A while back some students created a video called "After Hours". It was filmed int he Huntington Courthouse and won some award and has since been submitted to a few contests. You can see it here:



The only person involved with the film that I know personally is Lance Clark - he's a professor there, a very good one at that.

If the star of the film looked familar, "and you think he can dance", he can also be seen here:



So he didn't actually go to Huntington, but that's still pretty cool, I think.

Read here for HU's press release.

much love.
