So, this morning brad woke up with nausea… I asked if he was pregnant lol!
Anyways I wanted to say buh bye to my dear wordpress… As much as I do love writing on you I believe your time has passed. Its time for you to be dead to me like Jami. I’m ready to bury the coffin. WordPress, peace out have a great time with no soul! -I’m Out
Strawberry Shortcake is absolutely amazing! Tonight Brad and I prepared shortcake for desert at the parents house. I was so amazing I think that it was the best I have ever eaten. The best thing in the world is that we went to the store not expecting to get it and when we got there the strawberries were buy one get one, so of course we picked through all the bad ones to get the Ruby’s…
This weekend begins all the Birthday Fun! First for Ashley, then its all about me… then on to Raychel! These are going to be some fun times being that I am turning twenty-one HELLS YAH!!! I am glad that I will be able to order my own fuzzy navels instead of drinking Brads… The Moon here I come! So I am still trying to think of what I possibly could want for my birthday, everyone is asking but I have no idea…
For the first time in my life I am content. I have always been materialistic, I mean designer purses, sunglasses, shoes, and fancies are my thing… I mean what kind a girl are you if you dont enjoy these luxuries? For “valentimes” day my wonderful other half endulged in my obsession and bought me these gorgeous Juicy Couture sunglasses. Damn there fly! But, when asked what I want for my birthday I have to honeslty say that I am 110% happy with getting nothing. The fullness I have from being in love and having an amazing life is more than any of these things could ever make me feel. Brad being my prince charming and having the friends and amazing family I have is all the gifts I could ever ask for. Plus, graduation and my anniversary is coming up and that is going to be a mind blowing time, I cant wait, Bahamas look out! Were gonna rock the boat and the islands!
So, dear friends and loved ones you being who you are is the best gift you could ever give. I love and cherish each and everyone of you.
So today one of my kids came into class with his homework papers as usual, but he had this weird grin on his face. So, I proceeded to ask him why he was acting so mischevious and he said because he was in shock. I’m preety good at telling the feelings of littleones so I had already gathered this much. He continued to tell me that last night in his house there was a leprechaun that went through his backpack andhis moms purse. He then showed me his tattered homework. Blaming every wrinkle and tear on the leprechaun. He then turned to the third page and there was a green ” footprint” he swore it was real. He made the class feel it and smell it so that he could convince them too. In reality his mom drew it on there with a marker until the paper felt ruff and the marker smelled like yuck! I love the imagination of kiddies it is so fun! Needless to say we made a trap and plotted out how to catch him. I’m eager to see what tomorrow brings, teaching is so fun. You can actually get something back from it unlike stupid on the phone jobs… Oh well that’s what passion gets yah! I love my life!!!
SO, today I was a little nervous about my plans for this afternoon trying to cram in every last thing when my wonderful sister informed me that hello it is USF spring break, so that means I don’t have to waste my afternoon down in tampa! YAY! Im glad I called her because I would have driven all the way there and then realized I didnt have class… Im a dork, I know!
Well… last night we had a fish fry with the hommies… ewww I hate fish! I had to sit in front of them at the table I wanted to barf! My dad tried to put a piece in my mouth I almost vomited, but I survived. All the staples that come along with a fish fry are some of my favorites, so needless to say Brad nor I deserted the table hungry. I definitely think that catching the fish is much more fun than cleaning or eating them. I caught 11 fish total 10 blue Gil and 1 bass. This is more fish than I have ever caught in my entire life! WOW it was soooo fun. I even baited a few hooks and snatched a few fish off the line. (Man my granny would have been proud) Brad caught his first fishies and he did a great job. He was so cute trying to use the rod n reel. He caught himself more than the fish until he started using a real fishing pole like me (cane pole) then he was snagging them left and right too. And then there was Jessie and the escapade with the thirsty cows, and Ashley with the alligator snapping at her line, and we will never forget the orange grenades and the BIGGEST bass that got away dammit! This was such a great time I cant wait to do it again just maybe this time we will throw the fish back instead of keeping them… I can always hope!
Sometimes in life you have to step back adn look at the much larger picture. This weekend my other half adn I were sitting looking at our lives and looking to the future as to where we might end up or what our lives will develop into when we realized that the bump because of Jami seems to be getting smaller and smaller on the timeline of our lives each day. Then Brad and all his wisdom comfortaed and encourged me by metaphorically speaking saying “right now it seems like a huge mountain and just a small level field after that, but in time that mountain will become a tiny bump or even a rut and the beautiful fields of our amazing developing lives will be so large that the thoughts of that once mountain will surpass.” I cant wait for the days that not a single hurt or thought or reminder crosses my mind. I love the fact that each day is so much easier than the previous. I love the fact that I dream of a stronger feeling than love. I thought we were in love around wedding time and if that is so, what we are experiencing now is so much better that there are no words to explain it… If there were words what would it be? Im speechless!
Memories are being made every moment of everyday. I thought that remaking memories of things we have done in the past with Jami and George would be awkward and weird, but in reality being so engulfed with our current happiness the thought of the old memory seems to slip from our minds. I love the fact that all the things that she has ruined even as small as a stupid song can be replaced by a new memory. I am glad that we can make new amazing memories like spending quality time with family and friends and even just ourselves. I mean how can two people lay in bed all day and never get bored, iono how its possible but time flys when your by myside! I love you Brad!
So, yesterday we ate at Buca de Beppo! Man it is amazing… Jami and George introduced it to us a few months ago. We went once with them and I have to say that the experience was less than fun. From the eye rolls, to the under breath comments, to the trying to make my husband jealous, to the overall sharing the experience with them… you get my drift. Well actually, I started to get used to all the hatred from her because I was being a great wife and giving my husband two friendships he wanted even though I despised every moment. Well, needless to say that is all passed THANK GOD! All the drama and constant unhappiness because of Jami is now out of our lives and we can share quality time with each other, family, and friends.
Back to Buca… Jess and Chris got the most amazing Mashed Potatoes in the world… I do believe that a trip there would be worth just getting a bowl of those wonderful little mashed carbs. I got the raviolis again… I was informed that comments were made about me ordering them last time, so they were so much more enjoyable with no demon lazers… lol Anyways we had an amazing time…
The only thing that marred our time out was this family that had a a child that was like four years old who was very unhappy. I am a person with a great heart for kids, I mean they are my life and I have studied only them for 4 years! (graduation May 2) So, back to the girl, not only was she unhappy and in tears her mother tried to first use a demeaning strategy to say, “whats wrong with you? Look everyones looking at you, stop it!” (Negitive inforcement is NEVER beneficial!) Of course that didnt work, so she then moved to the babish strategy where she actually made a bottle for the little girl and held her like a baby! I was dumb founded! OMG I wanted to walk over and snatch the bottle out of the mothers hand and take the child and calm her down myself. I think that uneducated people who become parents should have to take a class on how to raise kids because these survival techniques parents use to get through the days creates weak and needy children that have a hard time coping when it comes growing up. I know im not a parent, but I spend 7 hours a day with young children so I have alot of first hand experiences. Wow! I am so glad that I am in the field of study that I am in… I cant wait to be a partner in raising our children 
So, that was smidge of our night… the other parts must remain sensored 
I am so excited how great life is going! Being in love, making wonderful memories and living each day with my hubby by my side! Man i feel so great! I love life and I am glad that this situation wasn’t able to crush me as a person because we have such a great life to live!!! Im so excited about whats to come tomorrow! I love you brad!
So today for the thousandth time I have been put into the postition as the teacher rather than the intern. I have had full respnsibility for the class… no teacher around, no one to turn to for a hint, no one for advise. The school seems to think that because Angela has a full time intern that I can fill in as a sub, but the university would flip out if they heard about this… I am in a weird position because of this. On one side I would never say anything because it would look like I cant handle the responsibility (which in turn could create a bad rep for me) being I would love to work here. On the other hand i hate that it is happening, mainly because it isnt fair or right! So, what do you do? complain or put your big girl panties on and do it? … I say wear those panties and get it done.
I have amazing control over the classroom and I am light years ahead of my peers when it comes to experience and classroom management from all the first hand experience. I guess that when I get my own classroom I will be greatful that I had all the experience because finding a comfortable spot in being a teacher is something that takes years for some, but I have been able to find mine already in just 8 weeks. Yay for me! I cant wait to have my own class one day and be the only teacher in the room everyday! Graduation, May 2! yay dont forget!!!
Brad and I have this amazing love to watch Christian’s baseball games. I’m not sure why we find it so amusing. It is comical to me how much we get into it. To other by standers I’m sure we act like we actually have a child on the team, but in reality we don’t. We bicker and rant about bad calls on any child and we cheer on kids even if we only know their name. Yesterday was the Red’s first game. They won 11 to 5! YAY Christian hit an amazing hit way out past center field. The irony was that his best friend was pitching for the opposing team. And I quote “I know his pitches, I knew I would get a hit!” So, needless to say christian has started out the season with a 500 batting average and one RBI! Great Job!
At the game the boys were plotting out how they would umpire a game. Man was it a hoot! We were all laughing so hard their were tears flowing down our cheeks. The two of them were planning different actions they would do and how they would make calls. All of their plans were heavily influenced by this amazing guy we all know CHAD ZELLER. A few things on their list of actions were the booger fling, old man walk, hiked up pants, and fake smoking, all of which are Jessie and my favorites. Also there was talk about setting up a review booth… not a real one just a fake card board box with a black cloth over it. OMG could you imagine… These boys always cook up something that is hilarious! Well all the funnies along with a great baseball game summed up our night… then off to home!
Just a tip for all you in love… Kissing and walking is dangerous… you could potentially break each others noses… lol I love you babe!
This weekend was amazing other than a few glitches… IE Dad-in-laws car pick up eekkk, So, he bought a new car from a dealership in Brandon and we were driving down to pick up the Equinox. Well when we got there we were supposed to have the tag off the BMW, but we didn’t so it was an absolutely wasted trip! Annoying…
Other than that the weekend was filled with great adventures with friends and quality time with my boo. On Saturday we decided to go riding on trails in bj’s truck… BAD idea! The trails the boys chose were literally for feet only, so needless to say BJ’s bumper felt the pain…LOL nothing a little hammer job and paint can’t fix. Hanging out, spending absolutley no money, chilling with the greatest ppl in the world, amounted to a great day!
Day light savings time really kicked our asses this weekend. Brad and I didnt go to sleep until 2:30 and then had to be up at 6 OMG i thought i was going to fall asleep in church! When we got home… it was cuddle fest 2009 we napped for 5, yes FIVE hours!!! Then the night rolled around and once again not asleep until 1. We really got to figure out this sleep patterns… I think that we are distracting each other from actually going to sleep because talking and … we will leave that part out to each other is definitely worth the lack of sleep… I have to admit that I would not change it for anything! I love you brad! your AMAZING!
