Fairs

Today, SSD wants to hear about fairs. We don't have a lot of good fairs around here. I do really enjoy going to the annual street fair. Its downtown and really big. Lots of great stuff to check out. This year I bought a Christmas ornament for the family. Its really great when my mom is able to come down and go with us.

iTunes

I just bought an iPod last month. I have wanted one forever, but didn't have one. I got a pretty pink Nano. I only have 30 songs loaded on it for now, but the one I am digging the most the past week or so is Shinedown's Sound of Madness. Love that song.

Christmas Train

This FOB2Y, Sweet Shoppe wants to see some place we went to last month. We had been looking forward to seeing the Disney A Christmas Carol train. My mom came to town for it and saw it early in the day. She said it was really cool. We went there right after we got off work and the line was huge. The wait was 1.5 hours and I just didn't think that N would wait that long for it. So we took a picture in front of it and moved on. N looks terrified though cause he was afraid they would blow the train whistle when he wasn't expecting it.

Cheesecake

Today SSD wants me to talk about cheesecake. Boy, I love cheesecake and I LOVE the Cheesecake Factory, but we don't have one in the town I live. So I rarely get to go. Its been a while. My favorite cheesecake they have is pumpkin, but its a fall only one. If its summer, I love the key lime pie one. And if its neither of those seasons, banana cream is my favorite. Yummy. Wishing I could go get one.

Swimsuit Season

I didn't much like this quiz as it didn't give me the option to say, I was once a tiny, little thing that never realized how small I was an hid in huge clothes and covered myself up, but now I have too much extra weight, stretch marks and a mommy tummy and try my best to cover it with no luck, but if I was tiny again, I would wear a bikini! ;) Guess they didn't think that was a good option.

Trying & May 2009

First, I am trying really hard to make my blog look pretty, but I get frustrated with all the html before I finish. What's ridiculous is, I know html, I took a whole course on it in college, yet I get annoyed and can't get it. Guess its a good thing I never majored in computer science. I will hopefully get it fully pretty soon. Wanna make Amy's beautiful kit and Chelle's beautiful blog fashion look good.

Second, its another SSD from our blog to yours! This time they wanna hear about our May. In May, we put up a birdy feeder so Nicholas could watch the birdies. He loves to pretend to be a bird, so seeing them eat every day is great to him. We had a great Mother's Day. I got beautiful flowers, tulips and gerbera daisies and went out to great brunch at the place where we had our wedding reception. Nicholas also made me a card and tissue paper flowers at his school. They were beautiful. Grandma came to visit and we got to go swimming and to a different zoo. Nicholas really enjoyed the monkeys and the ducks. Feeding the ducks was his highlight, I think. Nicholas also had his first virgin marguerita. He thought it was very good. He discovered Finding Nemo and has been watching 'fishies' every since. On Memorial Day, we went to the Air Museum and he loved getting to see all the airplanes. What little boy doesn't love airplanes. It was a pretty good month other than all 3 of us getting sick at one point in the month.

Birthdays & Retirement

First, I am retiring from designing. I just don't have the time anymore and would rather focus on scrapping (which I am better at anyway...lol). So all my stuff is 65% off through the end of the month before its all gone for good.

So, SSD wants me to talk about birthdays. The most memorable birthday I have is not necessarily the best. I remember my 19th right away, I was in basic military training. Yeah, what a wonderful birthday. lol I had lots of birthday parties as a kid, McDonald's ones (anyone remember those?), slumber parties (NKOTB themed once), rollerskating, lots of fun things. I hope my son will always remember his parties. I have tried really hard to make them special thus far.

You planning on making a resolution that's smart, attainable, and perfect for where your life is.

Cupcakes

So I am supposed to talk about cupcakes, but I don't like cake. Never been much of a fan. I can eat angelfood though so I guess I could say that would be my favorite cupcake. I do like the look of cupcakes, they can be so cute. Guess I don't have a lot to say about cupcakes. lol

Thursday, January 15, 2009

What kind of shopper are you?

This is very accurate. I am a total bargain shopper and I do get a big thrill out of a good deal. lol




You Are a Discount Shopper



You love to get things as cheaply as possible. You live for sales.

It's partially because you like to save money, but it's also because you like the thrill of finding a fabulous deal.



Of all the types, you tend to shop frequently but rarely by. You keep an eye on prices.

Brand names are not that important to you. You know how to have style without collecting designer tags.

Long Time No See

Ugh, lost my last post. Gonna try again!

I haven't updated in a long time as I have been really busy. I am updated now for SSD's From Our Blog to Yours.




Your Snow Test Says You're Independent



You feel like something good will happen to you in the next few months.



You don't really like to work, unless work feels like play. You only are successful when you are doing what you love.



You are an independent, individualistic person. You thrive when you're doing your own thing.



Your biggest worry in life is your family. You stay up at night thinking about them.



When it comes time to relax, you have no problem letting go. You are already pretty relaxed as is!



My goals for this year are to work on my marriage (a tough thing to do), get back in great shape and to turn 30 with grace.

Hope every one had a great holiday season!
