Day 21: Favorite Picture of yourself ALL TIME Why?

Well, I cannot post in full capacity today. My favorite picture of  myself of all time is at my mom's house in Pomona. It is a childhood picture and was from long before pictures were in digital form. And my mom isn't very tech savy, so I'll improvise and post one of my more current favorite pictures of myself.

I just always thought this was a good picture of me. It is actually the picture that I cut down to use when I took the MPRE (because you have to present a photo of yourself)

Sorry this wasn't very exciting. I'm currently busy with homework as Spring Break starts on Friday.

Booked the honeymoon

Well, the deed is done. I officially booked the honeymoon this morning. Chris and I knew where we wanted to go for a few months now, but we were waiting to see what was going on with Chris's job to see if we needed to postpone it for a couple of months. But we finally got the okay from my dad/his boss for Chris to be off the week after the wedding.

We are heading out to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. We had to go some place we could drive since Chris wouldn't get on an airplane. We are pretty excited about it. I found secluded cabins for us to stay. Then there are plenty of activities for us to do outside during that week.

We are staying in the Beary Cozy cabin. Check out the link. It looks amazing.

Day 20: Picture that always makes you smile

Well, before I got too busy today, I thought I might as well post for the day. The morning is beautiful and I am about to go take me a run!

Today's post is supposed to be a picture that always makes me smile. This picture is one of my favorites of Chris and I. I remember the day so well and it was a perfect birthday!

The day was April 30, 2005. Chris picked me up for my birthday. We were supposed to go out to lunch. But he claimed that he had to run an "errand" for his dad to help him move something. So, we are out driving on some dirt road and he finally parks. His dad's car is the only car in sight and there is no house. We get out of the car and walk through a field. There was a deck overlooking a lake with a picnic set up. Chris had made me my favorite meal and cake. His dad took a few pictures for us and then left. We spent a couple of hours out there eating and just talking and enjoying the day. It was perfect and a day I will remember.

Day 19: Something you miss

Well shoot. I missed a day and I was doing so good. Yesterday was a busy, busy day. Well, something that I miss shouldn't be too hard.

In no particular order:

1. Howell County
2. Christopher
3. My family
4. Chris's family
5. My furbabies: Boots, Dozer and Kit-Kat
6. My Willow Springs work family

Now on to cook breakfast!

Day 18: Favorite food(s)

Well it is finally Friday. There were times this week that I wasn't sure I would see Friday, but it is here and I am so happy.I woke up this morning in a great mood. I slept with the windows open last night so I woke up to the sounds of birds singing and a smell of fresh air. Then I realized it was the 18th and that means that today is Chris and I's 89 month anniversary. Geez that sounds like a long time.

Ok, so on to today's topic - favorite food. I love food, so I cannot pick just one!

For breakfast, I am a tried and true biscuit and gravy lover.

Lunch I am not overly picky about. It is usually a meal that I eat on the run so it is simple or left overs.


I have two favorite dishes for dinner.

Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, cream corn and salad

And Steak, baked potatoes and salad

For desserts I have three: homemade ice cream, grandma's homemade banana pie and mom's homemade chocolate cake with homemade chocolate icing (note these are pictures I took, not google ones)

Hope that you all have a happy Friday and a wonderful weekend!

Five Question Friday

Well thank goodness it is finally Friday. It has been a long week and I am happy to see the weekend. I just wish there wasn't a forecast of rain. I was enjoying the sunny and 70 degree weather. But with some free time before class, I thought I would take some time for 5 Question Friday. If you want to play along, head over to My Little Life and link up!

1. Have you ever testified in court? For what?

Not formally, but yes. I attend many hearings for work. A couple of summers ago I had transcribed several phone calls for a trial that we had going on. Judge Wiles had to ask me on the record whether I had in fact transcribed them and that they were a true and accurate transcription of the phone calls that I heard

2. Do you still have your wedding dress?

Well since I am not married but will be in just 6 months, of course I have my wedding dress. It is hanging in the closet at my moms and it is probably a good thing that it is there otherwise I would be in it every single day!

3. Is there a special place you like to go when you're happy, sad, stressed, etc.?

Most of the time I like to go outside when I am angry or upset. I enjoy being in the fresh air. It can always put me in a better mood 

4. If you have kids, do they sleep with you? If you don't have kids...will you let your kids sleep with you when/if you have them?

We don't have actual kids, but we have our wonderful furbabies. All the kiddos sleep in the bed. Kit-Kat and Boots are ones who love to get under the covers and cuddle. Dozer sleeps on top of the covers but has to be touching someone. Haven't really thought about what we will do when we have kids. I don't really want them in the bed every night because I think that is a bad habit to get into, but who knows when they are young. Guess we will decide that when it happens 

5. Do you watch late night TV?

Nope, not really. The latest shows that I watch start at 9 and end at 10. I don't stay up real late so not a whole lot of late night TV for me. I know, I'm a loser!

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Day 17: Something you're looking forward to

Well, first off, I would love to wish all of you a Happy St. Patrick's Day! I am sporting my green to celebrate, but that is about the extent of my celebrations. No green beer drinking for me.

There are sooooo many things that I am looking forward to in life. This year, I am looking forward to:

Graduation

Taking my Oath of Admissions and signing the Roll of Attorneys

Wedding

Honeymoon

Then there are things years later that I look forward to (in no particular order):

Growing old with Christopher
Having a family
Family vacations
Winning my first trial
Building a house

Aww, life is and will continue to be pretty wonderful!!!
