ill be home sooooo soon!

well i havnt blogged anything in a really long time so i figured i would write about the tiny details of my life tonight while i wait on my husband to come home to me. i had a lot of free time last week, which was nice. I had a five day weekend and spent a lot of time with Justin since the restaurant wasnt really booming and he kept getting cut really early. i love just being at home with him and sitting on the couch and talking about nothing, making lunch, painting our dining room table, and most fun of all, sleeping in! also i spent a lot of time cleaning out my closet, not in the slim shady way, but in the “its friggin cold here and i need to get out winter clothes” way.

also, can i just say i love the fall! i love the weather right now. Let me stress the right now, i know soon it will be so cold i will dread running to the store to grab some eggs, but for now i love it! i love that football is on all the time. i loooooove that i get to watch Grey’s Anatomy and the Office every thursday, and House! i love House! Im actually watching the Office right now, the second season on DVD that is. And i am wearing a mask, and so its really funny because Im laughing so hard but i cant really move my face. weird huh? oh dwight. one thing i dont like about the fall is that I become one pale girl. im so sad that in one week I have to put on a bridesmaids dress, pastier white than ever! i am so excited about going home and seeing my Ash get married! i cant even believe it.

so this week, Justin and I had our first small group with the JR and SR kids at church. We are their small group leaders for the fall and i think its going to be so awesome. They are really great kids and just sitting there with them reminded me of sitting at peoples house from my church doing small group, and all those memories and stuff came back. I just remembered how vulnerable i was then and how i was searching and how retarded i could be and how i loved learning from all the people that were in my life discipling me. I really hope that Justin and I can just be there for these guys out with whatever it may be. i just want them to get a better grasp of what it looks like to follow Him. They really are so great and just seem to have such a hunger, im super pumped!

well i suppose im gonna try and go to sleep even though justin isnt home yet. a guy and his wife in our other small group are moving and he has been there since like 3 this afternoon. my poor little boytoy, i need him to come home so i can go to sleep.

well everybody have a great weekend! and ill be home so soooooon to see a lot of you! especially you Pops!

Ciao

i love rollercoastering =)



First, let me state that I am watching Florida State, and might randomly type hostile words into this blog because our offense makes me wanna cry. Ok, so on to the fun weekend we have had so far. I had Friday off, which was of course awesome, I love getting days off when they leave town, and still getting paid! I spent the day running errands and met some friends at Joe’s to have lunch and see Justin. That night I went to the ladies retreat to sing and help lead worship. It was pretty fun, and after our sessions some of us girls went to Wal Mart and acted a fool, havnt done that in a while. This morning we had some more sessions and then Justin picked me up and we went to Kings Island to ride some rollercoasters! Our friend Brian works for Proctor and Gamble and had two free tickets because it was PNG day and the park was closed for the PNG employees, but his coworker gave him his two tickets so we got to go! It was super fun and sooooo beautiful and sunny with a cool breeze. We loved it! Anyway, afterward we went by the mall to get some food and look at the Apple store and then came home and i took a nice long nap! I woke up to a win by auburn, yay, and 10 minutes to kick off for FSU! Woo woo! So thats what’s happening now. We are watching the FSU game and the UT game because well you all know I love those VOLS too! and pretty much hate UF. Anyway, Im talking on the phone to my mom and brother and my mom loves that we can conference call! haha, she is funny. tomorrow Church, NFL, napping, and running...i love sundays! have a good rest of the weekend everyone!

My Husband was on ESPN last night



Well, I know its been a while since I updated and for that, I am just so sorry those of you sitting at work have had one less thing to look at to pass the time. Anyway, We are just sitting on the couch waiting for some college football to start so I figured I would recap the past few days. Well I loved the long weekend. It was nice to be home for a day off. Every time I have a day or two off I go somewhere and it was nice to be home this time. Justin had a softball tournament on Saturday and so Haley and I, being the amazing wives we are, went with our husbands to watch and support them in the cold mist, in the middle of no where. We took a break after their first win and went to BW3’s to get some wings. Now this was a good day for me, because I get this bad wrap for being a blonde FL girl thats a nanny, and apparently appear unintelligent to the majority of my men friends here. Well I decided to woop up on them. We all got a trivia thing to play the game at the restaurant and I was the only girl playing. When we started the game justin had gone to get his own game board, because he had been helping me and said that no he was going to win because he was doing it on his own, however by games end, this was not the case. I beat all 6 of those boys with high educations and good paying jobs that are much older than I. Now who’s stupid. Anyway, I just thought my woman folk would appreciate me representing. So later that day the guys lost the next two games and so we were out of there since it was double elimination. They played in the hardest division and basically got torn up. Well, Monday felt like it took forever to get here. I was just so excited about the FSU game. We had a lot of our friends over to the house and grilled out and had lots of other awesome food, and we watched FSU beat Miami, always a fun thing. I slept good that night with a 1-0 record. So the rest of the week wasnt all that bad. Not too much to do really, things have slowed down for a little while, which I am so happy about. It’s nice to come home from work and not have to immediately be somewhere else. Things will probably get a little crazy all too soon, but I am really enjoying this down time right now.

Ok, so onto my title of the blog. Last night we all went out to this german restaurant which was amazing and then over to Tropicana to hang out. The german place was so fun and had a live band playing german style songs, and at one point you had to stand on your bench and dance. Every other song they sang was about beer, since this place is also a brewery. They have the biggest beer mugs ever. I couldnt even drink a glass of that much sweat tea, but my friends managed it. Well justin didnt go with all of us because Lou asked him to go to the UC game. While at Tropicana, Kyle and I found some empty couches surrounding a TV and the game was on. There were about 3 minutes left so we were just watching and all of a sudden Im like there’s Justin. There is like no one in the stands but my husband and Lou’s brother in law standing in the stands behind the uprights waving a shirt in the air and I totally see him. Haha, it was hilarious. Needless to say, Justins shirt waving was not enough distraction for the Kicker to miss the extra point, but his effort was recorded on ESPN television. Oh yea, also yesterday Drew Lachey was in Joe’s when justin was working and he called to tell me, because he thought it was cool. Now if Nick were there, ida been there in a heart beat, he is my boyfriend, he just isnt aware of it.

Ok, well Im gonna go take a HOT shower, because Im so sick and runny nosed and all, blah!!!! have a good weekend everyone! and GO NOLES!
