I just wanted to say..

HAPPY, HAPPY MONDAY!!!!!

(I'm trying oh so hard to be upbeat here folks. Really all I would like to do is scream)

I sincerely hope that every one has a pleasant Monday. :)

Babysitting!

I used to babysit all the time when I was little. I even wanted to start my own Babysitters Club (I had read all the books of course, lol) Anyways, I don't do it much anymore now that I work full time, and most of the kids I used to babysit are old enough to watch themselves! My point is that I usually jump at any chance I get :) And also, a blog is a good place to reminisce! These are just a couple pictures from when I babysat tonight :)

Addison & Grayson

Baby blue eyes :)

Playing before we put Grayson to bed and curled up and watched movies all night :)

Sometimes I really miss Joseph :(
I hate that he doesn't get home until 9:00 most nights. I'm so lame and am pretty much in bed at 9:00, so we hardly get time to see each other! Except on the weekends.. so I guess I'm really glad it's Friday!! yay :)
Not next week, but the week after that is our 1 year anniversary. We both have vacation time to use so we're going to take the whole week off :) We have absolutely nothing planned (well, I don't.. he keeps saying that he has surprises for me) It'll just be so nice to have a week off. I don't think either one of us has had that much time off since our wedding.. a year ago!
I keep yawning and it makes my eyes water and that makes it hard to look at the computer. I think I need more sleep.
Only 9 more hours of work........
Have a good day my fellow bloggers.

Sunday w/ the family!

It was such a gorgeous day today! :) I woke up this morning and decided that I would love to spend all day in the sun again. Plus I was up for anything that got me away from Joe constantly telling me I make a really cute raccoon. (I had sunglasses on all day yesterday.. hence the raccoon eyes sunburn) So I went outside around 9:00 and I washed my car! :) I was all proud and happy.. but then when I took it for a spin to help it dry faster, I hit THREE bugs. Probably more, but those were the only really gooey ones I heard hit my windshield :( I was not happy! But oh well, that's the reason I didn't pay for a carwash, lol. So after I washed my car, I tried laying down in the yard but I got bored doing that real fast. I knew the house needed to be cleaned inside, I just really didn't want to go in :( So I weeded a couple of my gardens, ran the 4 wheeler around the yard for the dogs thennnn came inside to clean. YAY, not. Needed to be done real bad though! Around 2:00 me, Joe and Max (Joe "snuck" Max in the car with him) left to go to my parents. We celebrated my Grandma's birthday.. which was today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA! :) And my little cousin Marya's. It was nice to have everyone together at my parents again. Sometimes I wish that all my family could get together more often :( anyways, that was just a perfect ending to a wonderful weekend. Hope that everyone else had a good weekend as well!

We've almost been married a YEAR! :)

A perfect Saturday.. :)

Today was just a perfect day! Me, Joe and Dylan left the house around 11:00 to go to the truck & tractor pull in Roberts. We got there a little too early, but that's alright. I had no idea it was going to be SO hot out today, so I wore jeans and a tank top. I got ridiculously burnt, which sucks pretty bad right now. Joe wanted to pull his truck and by the time 6:00 rolled around we were both just exhausted from sitting outside in the sun drinking all day, so we were very happy when it was FINALLY Joe's class to pull.. and then we got to go home :) I made Joe put lotion all over my back and shoulders right when we got home. My face resembles a tomato now :( but it was still lots of fun! Now Joe is in bed sleeping, and I'm sitting in the living room watching Beer Fest with Dylan and Jake. Tomorrow afternoon we're going over to my mom's house for my Grandma and cousins' birthday.. I'm very excited to spend a Sunday with my whole family! It's been too long! Hopefully I'll have more pictures to post from Sunday :)

My lover and I :)

The Midget Mazda.. how preceious!

Joseph's truck.

The perfect ending to a perfect day :)

.. can you tell how sunkissed I am?

Puppy Loves*

I'm feeling quite lovey towards my puppies tonight, so I shall make a blog about them :)

I sure love you honey.

"I can take you for a ride on my big green tractor..." husband's ringtone plays.

"Hi babe!" I say.

"Hi honey, I sure love you!"

*sigh*

"What kind of car this time Joseph?"

.. at which point my loving husband goes on to explain to me how buying this Pontiac Sunfire will be such an easy fix, and better yet.. an easy way to make at least $1,000.

The worst part is that I know he's right.

I guess I'm just glad to have a mechanic for a husband!

Loooong day.

i. just. need. a. break.

:(

if anyone knows where i can find one of these (ha) .. please let me know.

Crabby sleeper.

So last night I went to bed around 11:00. Joe was still out in the living room watching TV. I was really tired, probably because I took a nap from 8:30-9:30 before Joe got home. Sadly this is what time my husband gets home every night :( Anyways, an hour nap just wasn't long enough! Well when Joe got home we ate dinner on the couch and watched The OC (thanks Jessie!!). And theeennnn at 11:00 I went to bed. I was excited because I had the window wide open and the fan on AND it was thunder & lightning! :) PERFECT sleeping weather!

I fell fast asleep...

Until.. 2:00 when I woke up to a dog being repeatedly thrown at me. What the heck! I roll over and I couldn't tell if Joe was all the way awake but OH BOY was he crabby! Him and Lucky were fighting for a decent spot on the bed *if anyone knows of a King size bed for sale, please let me know!!!!!!*

I didn't feel like dealing with crabby sleepers so I scooped Kylee up and was just going to sleep out on the couch. Well of course Max & Lucky would want to come too! So instead of us being all squished in our bed. I was squished will all of them (minus the husband) on the couch!! I slept surprisingly well, until Lucky woke me up w/ her big puppy kisses.. so I guess it all turned out okay.

When I went to talk to Joe in the morning, I sat down on the bed and he rolled over, looked at me and said "what do you want?" (he said it jokingly, just so you know) So I said "I want you to thank me for taking all 3 dogs and sleeping on the couch just because you were a little crabby!"

Do ya wana know his response?!

He says "Well you should have done it sooner."

Ooh what a crabby pants Joseph was this morning!!

I just said "okay dear, have a good day" and then left. Boy, oh boy do I love this man. :)
