it’s been a while- so it’s time.

1. I am looking SO forward to my weekend away with my guys in none other than our favorite, Charleston. It has been calling my name for months now and the hubster surprised me with a trip for this weekend. It’s been a really long time since we have been away, the three of us. It has been YEARS since I have been there in the warm weather, when we go- we always go for our anniversary which is in the heart of the winter. It’s going to be so nice to be in shorts and dresses and the forecast for this weekend is JUST PERFECT. It’s only two more days away, yay!

2. I have a new favorite eat. The hubby made fruit dip to go with the fruit tray for my birthday. He used cream cheese, whip cream and marshmallow fluff. Oh.my.goodness. It is just wonderful. We have ate on it and have run out of fruit. I foresee a run to the store this evening to stock up on some more fruit to go with the heavenly dip that is a feeling a little lonely in the fridge.

3. I am so excited to announce that so far in my (so far two months) journey of weight loss I have lost a total of fifteen pounds. I feel happy with that, but still am not where I want to be, but I’m steadily working on it. It just feels really good to say that I am seeing some progress, especially in pictures. I have to give a shout out to my hubby, who in two months time has lost a total of twenty-six pounds, yay!! He is doing SO good, looking SO good too! ;)

4. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the ever expanding and growing imagination of my two year old. I never know what kind of adventure I am going to go on. Just the other day, he told me he was going on a space rocket, up to the sky, to the clouds, the stars, the moon; but NOT the sun. After telling me this, he so sweetly asked me, “Momma, go with you?!” as he patted on his chest, of course I jumped all over the chance to go answering, “YES!!! I will go anywhere with you!” He pretends to be a choo choo train, running around the yard, “ALL ABOARD, Choo Choo!” as his little legs run rampit, asking anyone around to ride on his choo choo, of course this means you have to fall in behind and run along as well. One more story and I’m done with number four. The other day while visiting daddy at work, he was playing with some piping- this particular pipe that he had was squiggly, kinda in the shape of an ‘s’- well, obviously, to him this was not just any ole’ pipe, it was in fact a trunk, an elephants trunk. He held this pipe up to his nose, lifted his head and made “elephant noises”- can I get a HOW(www) CUTE!!!, because it most definitely was. My life is full of adventures that await, and that really excites me.

5. I’m thinking that tonight is a good night to give myself a pedicure (maybe with a foot, leg rub from the hubby, *hint *hint, love!). My mom got me the stuff for my birthday and I’m so eager to use it. If not tonight, I definitely want to do it before our trip.

6. Last night a new talent show came on NBC called, The Voice. It was SO good. I LOVED it. I love the whole concept of it and I thought the talent was great, I was hitting my at home “I want you!” button. It is set to “record series” on the DVR- if you didn’t watch it, you really should tune in.

7. I love storms, always have. But, I do not love the thoughts of possible tornados!!! We just experienced some serious hail- I keep thinking about my poor car that has already experienced a hail storm one time this year while in NC. I guess we shall see in the morning.

8. I cleaned out my facebook today. My list of friends had grown into some people that I didn’t really know or people who hadn’t been on since 2010 and people who were constantly posting and/or sending requests for all those “ville’s.” It was something new for me- I kinda felt bad for hitting the “unfriend” button- but did it anyway. I don’t think they will miss me too bad.

9. I have been singing the blues recently. (Not bad blues)- that’s all I’m gonna say on that matter. :)

10. My brother and sister are going to prom this year (it’s next weekend, I can’t believe it’s already here!!!). I am so excited for them and so excited to be a part. Of course, I am taking their pictures but I’m also doing my sisters hair- I am fairly nervous about it…we have practiced several times and have plans of practicing more fingers crossed she will love it come prom day! I can’t wait to see them all snazzied up!!

(I wrote this post yesterday afternoon off and on into yesterday evening but by the time I was finished with it I couldn’t post it due to the internet being about because of really bad storms, bummer- so everything is gonna be a day behind and some things the extra day doesnt effect at all. Unfortunately, I did not get around to number five yesterday, so maybe if I don’t have too much to do this evening I’ll try to make it happen, in addition to changes being made, there is only today that stands in between us and Charleston, yay yay yay!) :)
