AHHHHH It's Friday the 13th!!

No, I'm not really superstitious, it just sounded like a good title. I had a really great day despite my Stampin' Up stuff not arriving today. Maybe it will come Monday and I'll have a couple days to be crafty before Mike is home for TWO WHOLE weeks on vacation!

We were blessed in my neck of the woods not having to deal with the storms today. It's weird because the nearest town that's like 15 miles or so away got hit terrible! Thank goodness however that nobody got hurt- I have yet to hear otherwise.

It was a sad day in politics when the news that Tim Russert had passed away was broadcast on most TV networks. I'm not much into politics, mainly because it all infuriates me, however I always listened to what Tim had to say. He always made the most sense! Rest In Peace!

We finally scheduled our house warming barbeque only to possibly have to turn around and cancel it. There might be a whole ten people that show up. We'll probably just turn it into a good ole fashioned barbeque and bonfire with lots of beer! We like to live like rednecks here and there, it's not so terrible!

I'm off to finish a book I just started this morning before I head off to bed. I'm going to my niece's T-Ball game tomorrow morning while Mike is at work. I may even go to the movies with Robin and my Mother-in-Law to see The Happening, we'll see, I hate to butt into a mother - daughter event. If I don't do that, I'll just go shopping!

Night ya'll!

Busy Busy Day

Woo Hoo!! I finally put the deposit down for our Honeymoon to Aruba. We are just so excited, we can't wait! We are staying 7 whole nights and plan to have my mom watch Lexis while we're gone.

We also planned our house warming/barbeque for the end of the month. We're not sure how many people will make it because the Fourth of July is the following weekend but we'll make the most of it! It's just so hard to plan anything with Mike's work schedule.

Our garden is looking really great. After losing about 80% of it when we had the two nights of frost, we replanted and it's looking great! We just hope the deer will stay out of it, there were already tracks in it tonight. I told Lexis she wasn't doing her job very well!

Hopefully I get my Stampin' Up order in the mail tomorrow so I can get to making more cards and do some more scrapbooking! I just can't wait! I'm also looking foward to getting my latest Mary Kay order in. Their new mineral colors are so gorgeous I can't wait to try them out! The subtle tanning lotion is also great! I've been using it on my legs and it looks really good, I am quite impressed. If you want to try anything from Mary Kay let me know! I can get samples of just about everything, just ask!!

Now I'm off to relax and enjoy the rest of the evening!

So Much Fun!

What an awesome day! First, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my big sister Bonnie. She turned the big 3-0 today! She lives in Arizona and said she wasn't going to do anything except lay by the pool. Sounds like a perfect plan to me!

The Detroit Red Wings of course won the cup, just like I said they would, so the big parade was held today. I saw some on TV and heard some on the Radio. I'm not a big fan of parades so I guess it was just "okay" for me.

The best part of my day was hanging out with Katrina, Kristin, Jackie, and Mary Eileen for dinner at On the Border, then to Twelve Oaks. My stupid sunglasses decided to break on me and they were all willing to go to the mall to help me find new ones, what an awesome group of friends. I found the perfect pair, although my face is crooked, they'll work! I miss hanging out with them. We always used to get together at least once a month for something or other, and now it's once every few months. I need to steal one of them to go to the mall with me to buy clothes for vacation. They always look so cute and I just can't buy the right kind of clothes. I have NO fashion sense whatsoever!

I'm home now and I need to get to bed! I am going to my niece's first ball game tomorrow morning so I have to be up at 6:30....that's a little early for me! Have a great weekend everyone!

We want Lord Stanley!

Let's go Wings!

I stayed up like everyone else on Monday night just to go to bed disappointed. Tonight's the night, the Detroit Red Wings will win the cup, I can feel it! My poor hubby won't be watching tonight as he has to be up at 2:00 a.m. for yet another 12 hour workday, 14 if you factor in two hours of driving. I'm recording it for him, however we all know that just isn't the same.

I'm so excited about our upcoming vacation! We didn't get to go on our honeymoon because of buying the house and my back issues. We are in the process of booking our honeymoon to ARUBA!! I cannot wait, you just have no idea.

This is a view from the resort we plan to say at. I so hope this all works out. It will be so nice to have an entire week with no work to do, no dog to take care of, and no cooking! My hubby and I can just enjoy each other with no interruptions, something we have yet had the chance to do.

That's it for today! Let's Go Wings!!

My First Post

My life is extremely boring. Quite a contradiction to the name of my blog! I like to share the exciting things in my life with everyone, as simple as those exciting things might be, so I decided to do it through a blog. I hope you enjoy my simple pleasures!
