Day 7

Day 7- Tell us about your wedding or your dream wedding

My wedding day was awesome! We got married on September 16, 2006. It was a beautiful day and very warm. We were married in my family church, Sacred Heart Catholic Church at 2 p.m. Our ceremony was very traditional and was a full mass with communion. After that we had our reception at Crystal Arbors in Fremont, OH. Our reception was so much fun. Our cake didn't turn out like we expected and was not what we wanted but I didn't let that ruin my day. We had a chocolate fountain which was awesome! The food was good and the company was even better! I don't have a lot of pictures from that day on this computer nor do I have to picture CD available right now, so these are all the pictures I could find from other people's Facebook's! We had so much fun on our big day and so did everyone else! The dance floor was full the whole time and I don't think I sat down ever! I wish we could have that party every year!

We were young and thought we were so cool!

My sister and I...we were so tired! She was my maid of honor

True love!

I don't have the picture with my family on here but this is Keith's family. Pretty good looking group if you ask me!

Day 6

Day 6- Tell us about your best friend when you were 16, and where you two stand today

This is my best friend Kelly. We were best friends when we were 16 and we are still today. We have actually known each other our whole lives. Who can say that their first best friend is also their current one? Probably not too many people. If you want to get technical I have known Kelly since I was 1 month and 2 days old! I always have to remind her that I am older and of course wiser! Kelly has been with me through good times, bad times and hard times. We have seen sadness together and great happiness. She was there with me on my wedding day. I will be by her side for hers. We don't get to talk as much as we used to or see each other as much as we used to but we just jump right back in like no time has passed. She is someone I know I can always count on and I know she is always a phone call away. I would like to think I have been as good of a friend to her as she has been to me. I can't imagine not having her in my life and I hope that day never comes. Kelly, I love you and you are my best friend. Thank you for always being there for me and never judging me through all of my mistakes and bad choices! You are the best!

This is Kelly and I deep in a Just Dance battle on the Wii...she won! I think she cheated or my remote was broke! haha!

Day 5

Day 5- Something you definitely could live without

Something that I can definitely live without is seeing my children sick or in pain. I hate when there is nothing I can do for them to make them feel better. My children mean the world to me and when they are hurt or sick it makes me so sad. The world would be so much happier without pain or sickness!

Aren't they just adorable? Who would want to see these babies sick? Not me!

I could also live without bugs! Bugs just freak me out. Birds do too for that matter! At the zoo in Lansing there is this huge (not really but to me HUGE) Kookaburra. I took my daughter into that building and when we got to that bird it moved and I screamed! ha ha! Everyone looked at me like who is this grown adult screaming! I was so embarrassed, but that this is freaky looking!

See what I mean!

Day 4

Day 4- Something or someone you can't live without, because you tried

The person that I can't live without is my husband. We have been together for 10 years this year and married for 5 in September. When we were together for about 2 years we went through a rough patch and broke up. The whole time we were apart I cried and cried. I just wanted to be with him. We didn't stay apart for long because we both can't be away from each other. I know it's pretty cliche for me to write this about my husband but being without him for that short amount of time just solidified in my mind that we were meant to be together and I can not live without him.

Me and my hubby...October 2009 (I know it's old...but not that we have kids we never get our picture taken togther!)

The something that I can't live without because I have tried is my Coca-Cola! haha! I am addicted. In my defense, it is like my morning coffee. I need my Coke to function. I gave it up for Lent once and it was a long 40 days! I LOVE MY COKE!

Day 3

Day 3- A photo of something you ate today. Was it worth the calories?

This is tortilla crusted Tilapia, Spanish Rice and steamed broccoli

This was totally worth the calories! The rice was awesome!

These crab cakes came out later than the rest of the food. These were not worth the calories. The one on the left is a cajun spiced one and that was good but the other two were bland. I only had half the cajun one and a bite of the plain one.

Day 2

Day 2- Something you really don't like about yourself.

I don't like that I have no self control with food and that weight and food issues with be a battle I live with all my life. I wish I could just eat right and be active but I have no self control and I am such an emotional eater. If I am bored I eat, if I am sad I eat, if I am happy I eat...see what I mean! I am working to get this under control because I want to be a healthy mom who can run around with her kids and not sit and watch my family play.

Day 1

Day 1- A picture of you and something you like about yourself

Ok, something I like about myself? I think that I am a good mom and I really like that about myself. I try my hardest to do what is best for my kids and make sure they are happy. I like to think I am raising happy, healthy and polite kids. It makes me happy when we are out in public and someone comments on how well behaved Sydney is. The other day we were at the store and she said, "Excuse us!" to some people and a woman commented on how cute and polite that was. Then she found me later and said it again. That just made me burst with pride!
