A person I respect...






So, yesterday, I had to fill out this getting to know you questionaire for work. One of the questions were...Who do you respect? I realized that at this point in my life, I respect Matt, my handsome, sexy, smart husband the very most.

I may just be swelling with pride right now, but I am proud. I don't think that many people have ever counted Matt as a smart person, I know that I didn't when I first knew him, but he has now graduated with a 3.8 GPA average in Engineering. The things that he does I could never figure out.


He is continually working harder and harder to make our house a dream home. He is currently putting the last touches on the bathroom. He does everything wonderfully and doesn't cut any corners. He makes everything that he does in our house beautiful, even if he hasn't done anything like it before.

He is an incredible dad and husband. Our kids can't get enough of him. I can't wait until he is finally home at night. He makes me feel like I am the most gorgeous woman alive, and has done that since the day we met.

I tell Matt something all the time, and I really mean it right now. I love the man that he was, he is, and the man that God has planned for him to be.

My new oven







I don't cook very much, but hey, I'm getting a new oven and am excited about it. We went down to Boyle's last week and they had some last year bosch ovens they were clearancing out. So, I got a $1500 oven for $600 and am super stoked about it.

I am looking up some casseroles and oven cooked items so that I can use my oven efficiently. It is going to look prettier than the brown one that I have now and that is the best part.

By the way, Boyle's is always the best and cheapest place to get appliances from what I've found. They are awesome. I am also getting a new washer and dryer since they had some awesome closeout deals on those too.

One more week







Well, we have one more week until Matt is done with school. Praise God!!! I plan on not seeing him at all until Saturday afternoon. We are having all our our families over to celebrate next week after graduation and this is the picture on it.

We tried to get laid off on William's last roll of lay offs, but we didn't. Someone else lost their job instead of Matt and they are never going to give Matt an engineering position. I think they are are using the economy excuse to do their laying off so they can send all their work to Mexico and not look bad.

So, we will be done in about 1 month and going to ATK. Matt has a summer internship there that starts June 7.

Primary colors







So, this morning Tristen came up to me and asked me what color she would get if she mixed blue and yellow. She informed me she would get green and then continued to tell me which color she would get by mixing every primary color.

Did I teach her that? Absolutely not. TV shows rock or Tristen is just a genious. It wasn't me teaching her.

Things to look forward to...






Since I am so ready for summer and my son can't handle any more winter, I thought I would put some things I can look forward to.

1. Lagoon opened this weekend. We will get our season passes today.

2. Matt graduates in 3 weeks and has potential for getting a day job and being home at night.

3. My son can run all day and throw as many balls as he wants outside.

4. My blonde children get even more blonde as the sun kisses their hair.

5. I sell lots of dresses during the summer and then have guiltless shopping money.

6. Swimming and new swim suits.

7. Parks and walks.
