February 16th

Matt and i have been married for a year tommorow!

Happy Birthday Trey!

Today is my brother-in-laws 17th birthday! Happy birthday trey! Sorry we couldnt be there to see you ride the saddle...send pictures!

Things have been pretty busy around here. Last weekend we went to the probowl. It was fun but nothing like what i expected. It never occured to me that they actually stop playing duriing the commercials. We took tons of pictures but they take to long to load on here so if you want to see them, give me your email address.

Matt has to work for half the day on valentines day :( and most of the day on tuesday (our 1 year anniversary). Im hoping they will let him leave a little early on our anniversary so we can atleast go to dinner or something.

My family will be here in 2 weeks! i am already starting to get the house cleaned...scrubbing the bathtub and toilets and things like that. we will only have 4 or 5 of them staying with us, but there will be 7 or 8 here total. its going to be pretty crazy. matt was able to get off work a few of the days they will be here so we can go do stuff with them.

gotta make dinner :)

Catching Up...

we have been so busy lately! my great grandmother passed away on january 2nd and thanks to a guardian angel matt and i were both able to fly home for the funeral. matt stayed a week and then had to come back to work but i stayed an extra week ans visited with my family. unfortunately i was sick the whole time and i still have a serious cough.

this weekend we are dog-sittting for our neighbors. they are about to move and cant take the dog with them, so we may end up with it...but i wanted to try it out for a weekend first and see how it went. it worked out really well because they went camping this weekend and needed someone to watch the dog anyway. he seems to be behaving and i know matt is going to like him...atleast i hope he does, since he doesnt know about him yet :) he will find out when he gets home from work.

next weekend we get to go to another marraige retreat! i love these things. this one is at a resort that i havent been to yet, but supposedly it has lagoons with hammerhead sharks in them. then on sunday we are going to a friends (who is pregnant with twins!) to watch the superbowl.

February 4th is my mommas birthday! happy birthday mommy! i hope you like your present.

we are going to the probowl on february 8th. im really excited about this, it is a really good oppurtunity and from what i heard this is the last year its going to be in hawaii.

and then on march 2nd my whole family plus some extras are coming to visit for 2 and a half weeks!

we are going to be so busy for the next few weeks!

Very Sad News

Oscar the beta has died.


Rest In Peace Oscar

Happy Veterans Day!

I dont have much to report, thats why i havent written in so long. I fell/slid down the stairs on saturday night and ended up in the ER on sunday morning. My foot is swollen and bruised. It isnt broken but i have to wear a boot and walk on crutches for atleast a week. We are going to have thanksgiving with some friends. Somehow Matt and i got roped into making a turkey and a ham. And various other side dishes. Honestly im not looking foward to it. The people we are doing it with want to do the sit down at the table/tablecloth and centerpeice thing. Ive never done that before in my life. My family is so big that people sit on the couch or the floor or wherever there is room. Its more relaxed that way. Sitting down at a table just seems so formal to me. I guess watching to football game during dinner is probably out of the question...
