FRIENDS!

Today one of my very best friends is coming back home for a visit!! Andrea and her husband moved to the Dallas, TX area in January and I am so excited to see her again!!

We went to high school and college together and lived together for 3 years. My husband actually introduced her to her husband. They went to N.C. State together and Chad thought they would be perfect for each other. They have been married for a little over 3 years now and they have 2 dogs that are spoiled rotten.

Here are some pics of us through the years.

Out with friends in Raleigh during college years.

College days in our apartment.

Update

Papa came through the surgery just fine on Tuesday. Thanks so much for all the prayers. He was supposed to be discharged out of the hospital today and into a rehab facility but that is not going to happen today. He is a bit disoriented and has a very low potassium level so they are going to keep him a little longer.
Please continue to pray.
Have a wonderful weekend in this gorgeous weather!!

Prayers Needed

I have a very special prayer request today that weighs deeply on my heart.
My grandfather is having surgery (amputation) on his left leg next Tuesday (2/15/2011).  His heart is very weak. So just pray that he stays strong during surgery.
I just ask that you covet him and our family in prayer. He is so special to us all. Please also pray for my grandmother as she deals with this. They are both very tired from not getting a lot of sleep due to all the pain.

My favorite picture of the 3 of us!



(Sorry-can't fix this picture the correct way)




Love this picture of him and my husband reading on the front porch in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina!

Our 2010 Christmas Card.... Merry Christmas!
It was really hard getting 4 dogs to cooperate with us. So we have 1 dog yawning and it looks like I'm choking one to death. The dog is fine. Next year I think we will stick with 2 dogs like we usually do....Hank and Sadie...our first 2 dogs.

Yes.....I'm actually posting! Can you believe it?!

I'm alive! I just don't know what to do with myself. I have been so slack in blogging (I tend to say that alot). I have to catch everyone up since December! I need to catch you up on so much!

This is when I went to Florida to see my good friend Lauren. Isn't she beautiful?! She lives in such a gorgeous place in Boca Raton. I could easily move there!


Here is the family (minus my parents) at Christmas with our dogs. I just love them! Not sure what is going on with my hair. I always feel so ugly during the winter.....I get all pale and have static hair!

This is all the grandchildren on my mother's side. Most of them live in Maryland (where my mom is from) so we always head north for the holidays.

This is my "Cooper" in the snow. I love this dog so much and he just melts my heart with his big personality.

This is "Hank" (Chad's dog). He is huge and so loveable. He loves to ride in the back of Chad's truck and swim in the pond.

This is my sweet angel "Sadie" (she stays inside with me). I just had to take her to the Emergency Vet Hospital lastnight b/c I left the food pantry door cracked open while I went to work and when I returned home, she had ate a whole bag (12 oz.) of semi-sweet chocolate chips! She was terribly sick and they wanted to keep her overnight. Thank goodness she is ok this morning. It will not be a good day when this dog passes! I did not get a good pic of our other beagle (Sophie) in the snow. She's not very photogenic...ha!

Chad got his "Professional Engineer's License" in February of this year. I am so proud of him for working so hard to achieve this goal. So if you need a job done......he can approve it!

My dad got the family "Carolina Hurricanes" tickets from his work and we all went in February. It was fun but I'm just not that into hockey. I'd rather be sitting at a volleyball, baseball or basketball game. I guess b/c it's more of a northern sport. Can you see how pale I am?! Ahhhhh.....I hate winter! Thank goodness Spring/Summer are approaching!

Here is the family (Minus the parents again....Daddy is taking the picture)

Finally, Chad and I both had our birthdays in February. February is busy for us with Valentines, his b-day and mine all within the same week. This is Chad at his grandma's house on his birthday with his Wal-Mart ice cream birthday cake. It was yummy!

This is my and my cousin in Maryland on my birthday. His birthday is right after mine so we celebrated together since we were in town. My favorite dessert is Cheesecake so we got 2 big cheesecakes and put candles on them. Everyone loved it!

Us after we blew out the candles.

Since February, we have had beautiful weather in March. I am loving this warm spring weather that is finally here! I love when it's time to bring out the flip flops and sun dresses! (and get a tan). Sun dresses are my favorite to wear b/c they are so cool and light and fun to wear!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by! It's beautiful outside and can't wait to get off work and take the dogs for a run!

Florida!

Well this week I have ventured off to the sunny Ft. Lauderdale/Boca Raton Florida!! It is absolutely gorgeous here! I could def. live here 6 months out of the year. It is December (as well all know) and it was 83 degrees here today. It is so funny to me to see Christmas decorations up all around town and it be warm weather outside! I am here with a friend of mine. We grew up together and I now work for her family back home in NC. She is in Ft. Lauderdale going to school for communications and is a ballroom dancer. Yes...she knows the professionals on "Dancing with the Stars". Maksim's (pro dancer on DWTS) brother wants her to move to New Jersey and be his dance partner. She is def. living the glamorous life here. Her condo looks out over the intercoastal waterway. I couldn't imagine having this view everytime I wake up in  the morning. I will post pics up later b/c I want you all to see how beautiful this place is! Have a great night!!

Vote!!

Ok bloggy friends...I know it's not that many of you that follow my blog yet but I hope that will change! Our local news does a "Pet of the Week" contest each week and I of course have entered our dog "Sadie" in it. I know....ya'll probably think I'm some crazy dog lover or something, but I dont have kids yet so I treat this dog like my child...that's it! So please go and vote for Sadie! She is the beagle sitting in front of the yellow and red mums. It's the picture of her from a previous post. Go here! http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/pets/?navkeyword=pets




Thanks so much! I just want to see her on TV....is that too much to ask?!?!?

Doggie Photo Shoot Day

These pics are of my dog Sadie and my parent's dog Baylee. They are the best of buddies. Sadie doesn't care too much for our other dogs at our house. I guess b/c she is always with them. But she loves her some Baylee!! Here are some pics of them a few days ago when the weather was pretty here! Yesterday and today have been miserable here due to the rain from the hurricane.




Sadie & Baylee

Looks like they are in jail


So photogenic!



Sadie loves to lay on her back and go to sleep

Have a good evening everyone!

My Furry Love

Don't have a lot of time, but wanted to share with you the cutest picture of my precious angel. Is this not precious or what?! This should be on a calendar! This is Sadie. She was my first dog and is it wrong to have a favorite dog? I have 3 more but most of my love goes to this one!

Best CD Ever!


Ok guys, I just wanted to let you know of one of the best CD's I've ever listened to. Every song on the album is wonderful and I could listen to it all day long. It is the Christian group "Selah". I hope they tour somewhere around the Raleigh/Durham area b/c I would absolutely love to see them in concert. I'm giving a copy of the CD as gifts this year b/c I love it so much. I also think my brother should sing some of the songs in church one Sunday (he has a beautiful voice). You can buy the CD on Amazon.com, the group's website or at your local Christian bookstore.

Here is the group's website. http://selahonline.com/


Also the lead singer's (Todd) wife has a blog that I follow as well. Very inspirational. Here is her website.

Hope you all have a great weekend. I plan to do lots of Christmas shopping this weekend and hopefully help my husband do some yard work!

I'M A SLACKER!!

Well yes I am officially a SLACKER!! I cannot believe I have not updated my blog since July!! Really?? Has it been that long?! YES!

Well since July, we have been pretty busy. We have been to the lake, beach, mountains, done landscaping around the house, spent time with family and friends and MY BROTHER GOT MARRIED!! YAY!!

Todd officially got married in mid-September. We couldn't be more happier for him and Natasha! We are so blessed to have her part of our family. They got married in Asheville and it was just beautiful! They got married at a place called "The Farm" so needless to say, the scenery was just lovely.
