I'm considering doing it! I need some inspiration & encouragement! 

Bucket List

[via]
Yes, I have one.

No....not the traditional one you are thinking of.....

I have one of these......

[via]
A baby bucket list!

I look at it a lot......I wonder if I'm ready. I wonder if my husband is ready. I wonder if we'll ever REALLY be ready. But, mostly...I PRAY. As a very good friend said "Just start getting on your knees….because the Lord will give you peace. Peace that you are ready, peace to know you will never be FULLY ready to raise another human being….but trusting in Him that He knows your ready, peace followed by being humbled that the Lord feels you're ready, peace that your marriage relationship is ready, peace about money….He will give you this peace that you will know for sure."

Thanks girl...best advice ever.

On to the list: (strikethrough = done!)

Graduate with my Master's Degree

Start a workout routine

Licensure exam for counseling

Be married one year
Vacation to celbrate 1 yr of marriage - Vegas?

Increase savings

Extras that I would like to do - but not a biggie:

Feel comfortable in the kitchen

Decrease debt

There you have it - my baby bucket list. What's on yours?

Happy Birthday!!

Happy birthday to my sweet baby girl Stevie!

Hard to believe she is 2 today!

So I know this officially makes me one of "those" people who is CRAZY about their dog - and I'm ok with that! I'm sure once I have kids, everything will be about the kiddo too! Gotta say, Stevie is the best dog E-V-E-R!

She loves her sister Cadence!

She loves her daddy .... and he loves her back!

Yes... she IS a Cowboys fan!

She loves her friends......

Even cats! (Seriously...how cute of a puppy was she?!)

She loves her mama!

Sometimes she causes trouble..... but how can you punish a kid with that SWEET face???

Happy birthday Stevie!!



It happened to me

So.... I'm teaching my course at the junior college this morning, thinking I'm doing a GREAT job with this lecture and then I see this: A student totally asleep during my lecture!! I've struggled to stay awake in class before - especially the early morning ones - so I didn't wake the student up. I just let him miss the info I was giving out! I'm thinking that it was a one time thing.... I did lecture on psychological research (yuck) today, so I'm chalking the sleeping thing up to that.

Hopefully the next lecture will be more exciting!!

Girls girls girls

What a fun weekend! Saturday, Tiffany, Kameron & I got manicures and pedicures. It was a nice treat for just us girls! Then we picked up this angel and ate at Chilis and did some shopping!

Here's Tinley at Chilis..... she was so good!

We shopped all afternoon - we hit up Kohl's and this cool little place:

It's in Rockwall by Best Buy and JC Penny- in that shopping center. I'll definitely be going back there!! Way cute work clothes!!!
Oh... and miss T needed these:

Then we picked up the boys and ate at On the Border - it was SO fun! Clint, Kameron, Tiffany, Chris, TC, Mama Kay, Trey & I laughed all night!! We must do this again - soon!
Sunday morning was filled with awesome worship and a great message at church followed up with a cat nap. Then, me, Clint and the Rairdon's went and saw the movie "Season of the Witch" it was good, not what I expected.

Then dinner at King Buffet in Mesquite!! Yummmmmm!

Great weekend!

Top 5 Friday

A few of my favorite things....

[via]

1. Carmex chapstick - a must have for me! During the winter/cold months, my lips are so dry and this stuff just feels so good!

[via]

2. Tresemme heat protecting leave in conditioner - I spray this stuff on so heavy before I blow dry every morning!! If Stevie is in the bathroom while I'm getting ready, she'll leave sneezing because I spray so much. Amazing stuff!

[via]

3. My husband bought me a heated throw blanket for Christmas - I keep it on the couch. I love cuddling under it! And, my mom bought me one for my bed! Major plus - I have one on my bed AND one on the couch - I'm so cold natured, I love love love these!

4. My favorite author is James Patterson - he needs to start writing faster, because I finish his books so fast and then have to wait for his newest to come out!!

5. Last, my very favorite - YouVersion for the iPhone! It has a daily reading plan, I'm currently working on the One Year Bible. It keeps me on track, and I can read straight from my phone. Very cool!

Have a wonderful weekend!!
