Well, as you all know I had a birthday last week...yes I turned 28! I cant believe how time has flown...It really made me realize it when I got an email saying my 10yr high school reunion is next month...uggh. If that doesn't make you feel old...... Anyway Tami and my mom took me out for lunch @ TGI Fridays on my birthday..YUM! It was fun to hang out for a bit with the girls, and of course eat yummy food. That night Me, Tami, JR, our friend Desi and JRs cousin Mu all went to the Comedy Club in Meridian...the comic was really funny and since we were sitting in the front he of course made fun of us lol. It was all in good fun though. We went to The Ram after that and had some food and drinks and definately good times. We then spent the rest of the night hanging out at our friends Kristi & Travis's house..they are good friends of ours and we really had some fun! Tami and our friend Bubba sang American Idol Karaoke all night and it was so much fun!!! Anyway here are some pictures from that night...What a great birthday!! We also celebrated my moms 51st birthday on Sunday, the 8th. I love my mommy so much~! JR, Tami and I went over there and we BBQ'd steak and shrimp and had potatoes and so much yummy food..We also brought over our Xbox 360 and everyone joined in on American Idol karaoke and Guitar Hero III. Last weekend was such a blast..I am so thankful to have such wonderful friends and family in my life.

So JR and I have been working really hard on trying to get our yard 'up to par'.. well ok JR has done most of the work. We took out some hideous looking plants in the front yard and added lots of flowers and also dug out some of the grass to line the sidewalk with flowers. The yard doesnt have anymore yellow spots (yay!) and is lush and green. We are loving it! Now its time to work on the back yard lol. Ugggh. But here are some pics of the front.. The fruits of our labor LOL.

Fishies~!

Our fishies!! Theres 3 Silver dollars named Larry, Moe & Curly, 2 Rainbow Sharks named Cheech & Chong, 2 Corydora Catfish named Dora and Boots, 1 Plecos Algae sucker named Scotty, and then ...........
My favorite lil guy Gordo!! Hes so dang cute! We are going to get 2 more just like him.
New livingroom set up


So we were given a 55gal fish tank a few days ago and some fish..well one of them didnt make it,sadly. We had bought 2 pink kissing gourami fish and they turned out to be the culprits! The little suckers. So we gave those away yesterday. We also bought a new goldfish, his name is Gordo, and you can see why in the pictures lol. I love that lil guy. He is so cute and so fat that he waddles instead of swims. Too cute!!! Anyway I just thought I would share some pics, we also had to rearrange our livingroom to get the tank to fit, so theres some pics of the livingroom too.

Happy Bunny

I know I know, it's been awhile...

The houseboat we stayed on
I know its been awhile since I blogged, things in life have just been a whirlwind. I'll start with our vacation to Indiana. We had SO much fun visiting my real dad and my step mom. We spent 10 days there and they are amazing. I got to meet my Uncle and his wife, my Aunt and her husband and some of their friends. Everyone there has such a big heart and really welcomed us with open arms, it was like I had known them all my life. JR and Donnie (my real dad) fished in the CrappieUSA tournament down at Lake Patoka, where we stayed on a houseboat. The boat was AMAZING and I would love to someday retire and live on one. They placed 18th out of 64 teams..which was very good! But more importantly they had a blast. While they were sleeping and getting up early for the tournament, I was at the casino (aka The Gamblin' Boat) with my Aunt Juanita and my step mom Patty. What a BLAST!!! We lost up until the last half hour we were there and then Patty saved the day and won all the money back. It was too fun. We were there for a bout 9 hours LOL. We also went camping at Boggs Lake for a night. That was some fun fishing and some good time spent with the family. It was also my first time fishing out on a boat in a lot of years, so I was nervous but was fine after the first 10min or so. I got to spend a lot of time with Donnie and Patty and that was great. JR really liked them and we were so sad to come home to "real life". Real life wasnt much fun after we got home, with the dogs fighting and Baloo almost killing Chico, what a fun night at the PET ER at 1:00am..not. Then come Monday I lost my job, and come to find out I was replaced while on vacation. Life just isnt fair sometimes. I've been trying to stay positive and keep busy, but its really hard to go from one extreme to the next in a matter of days. I guess things happen for a reason and it is what it is. There must be something better in store for me, I just dont know what that is yet. On a happier note- Im posting some pics from our vacation. Enjoy! I'll have to blog more later and definately more often.

My Jeep is for sale :(

It's been awhile....

My 2007 Chevy Cobalt..so cute!!!!

Hey everyone! Sorry its been so long since I blogged..Its been a whirlwind around here. We are getting ready to leave to go to Indiana, we leave this coming Thursday. We are excited and a little nervous at the same time. It will be good times though getting to spend time with my biological father and his wife, getting to know them better and a much needed vacation. JR and I have been sick the last week..nothing short of fun I tell ya.. I went to the DR Friday and he told me I had brochitis which was turning into pneumonia..LOVELY! So he sent me home with antibiotics and a pain killer... later that night my temperature had reached 104.3 and needless to say I was feeling HORRIBLE. I didn't want to move...Tami ended up taking me to St.Lukes where they put me on an IV, gave me some medicines to make my pain go away and my fever finally broke. Today is Sunday and Im feeling better, still sick, but definately not like I was. I hope it is completely gone by the time we leave for our trip. JR is doing better also, he never went to the DR (MEN!!) and decided to ride it out. Well, on a good note- I got a new car!! I love it! We still have the Malibu, but JRs cousin has taken it over, since she has the 3 girls and needs a good running car. I'll post some pictures of the new car..I haven't really driven it a lot since I got sick shortly after, but I couldnt be happier with it. We got a good deal on it, and it is something I really like. We are trying to sell our Jeep so that JR can get himself a boat. He has wanted one for awhile now, so hopefully we can get it sold. Well I think thats it for now..I'll have more to update on when we get back from Indiana. Take Care All!!
