Simple Saturdays..LOL!

I can remember when Saturdays were reserved for sleep in days,going to the nail salon for a manicure & shopping sprees with my friends or the hubby once I was married.My options were endless! I really never planned on doing the whole "MOM" thing.I never pictured myself on a Saturday afternoon on the playground @ the park or at Micky D's ordering a Happy meal..lol! When I imagined how my life was going to be I imagined the cliff notes version & skipped over all the little details.Those "little details" are what I obsess over now.A simple Saturday now may consist of Saturday morning cartoons & poptarts.I know that there will be a day when I look back & wish for these simple Saturdays so for as long AJ will let me I am keeping my Saturdays reserved for him..:)

Anniversaries

My parents will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary on Christmas Day! Now that I am married anniversaries are so much more special to me.I have realized the work it takes to keep a marriage loving & faith centered.My parents have been such a wonderful example of that!I'm blessed to have such wonderful examples.So in honor of their anniversary I'd like to share some things I've learned about life,love & marriage.

1.Never go to bed angry.
2.Falling in love is easy,staying in love takes work.
3.Love is a choice u make each day.
4.Sometimes love is doing something you don't want to for the love of your spouse.
5.Best time to talk abt a problem isn't when u are mad.
6.There is always something to worry about but just don't.
7.If the light is green go if it is yellow slow down & if its red check your lipstick.
8.Trust in the Lord.
9.Our futures are not guaranteed.
10.Do what u love & the money will follow.
11.Pray pray PRAY!!
12.Raising a family is work..but thank God everyday for your family.


My parents..:)

 Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad! Thank you for all your wonderful advice & always leading by example.Love you! Here's to many more happy years together!

Hopeless Romantic..:)

My hubby tells me that I am a hopeless romantic..I guess he is right..I like candlelit dinners,roses etc etc but I like to do things like this for him as well.Friday nights are our date nights..so he had to wrk late..so I fixed a really nice meal..I fixed Garlic & Cheese Rotini w/ grilled chicken & dirty spanish rice..I turned on our electric logs in our fireplace..it was cozy that's for sure..we laid on our air mattress in front of the fire..first tho we had dinner @ our dining room table..I lit candles & we ate off our nice china & we drank out of our champagne glasses..Saturday we went to Gainesville for Jessica & Adrien's birthday...cake,gifts,pinata bashing everyone had a blast! Check out the b'day pics!

About Me In My Own Words

I have learned that Motherhood is a series of bumps,bruises,laughs,tearsjoy,sadness,stress & relaxation.I am far from the perfect mom but I try to raise him to the best of my ability teaching him unconditional love.I have my faults,I have emotions & sometimes forget things..we all have flaws but I take my job as a mom very seriously.

I was born in 1974 in SC.I've lived many places but around in the same area pretty much..I lived in Savannah,Ga one year & loved it but Hartwell,GA is my home.To me life is a never ending learning process.I have worked doing things such as:wrking in a hair salon,wrking in a hospital as activity assistant,wrked at an after school program as a reading lab assistant & wrked in a nursing home as a CNA.Currently I am wrking on writing a book abt my life.I love to write I write poetry as well & love to read,I fell in love with reading at a very young age & it will always be apart of who I am.
I'm a funloving person..against same sex marriage & Abortions.I'm a Christian.I try my best to be an optimistic happy person.People with negativity should steer clear of me..my smile might cut you..I smile a lot.

During the week I normally get up at 6:30am but on weekends & during the summertime when school is outI wake up normally no later than 9am.
My pet peeves:I don't like it when ppl fail to use their turn signals when driving.I don't like irresponsible ppl.I tend to be very organized & stick to a routine.My biggest one is liars!!Ppl with poor hygiene-trust me I don't want to smell you!
My fav place to be is Tybee Beach soo relaxing!
The two happiest moments in my life was my wedding day & the first time I saw AJ's face the very first time..just knowing that little bundle of joy was mine to love & care for.Everyday with him is a blessing!
Being a parent has changed me..there is alot more love in my life,funny things he says & AJ always comes first! Me time has shrunk alot but I'm still the same person b4 I had him..just now there is more time spent at functions & school events.
I think the most important things in a relationship are:trust,honesty,good chemistry,good sense of humor,physical attraction,music,ethics,morals & other basic things.When I say humor it doesn't mean lame fart/potty jokes they are not funny!Do not do it in front of me that is just poor etiquette on your behalf & completely RUDE!! On w/ my list-good conversationalist,financial/emotional & social stability & def romantic.Someone full of life & not a pessimist.LAZINESS is a BIG turn off!

Being A Mom..:)

I never had any clue growing up that I'd  ever be a mom.I wasn't too fond of kids & didn't wanted my life to be tied down.I got pregnant with AJ unexpectedly..he wasn't planned so the way I see it God had other plans for me..I was meant to be a mom! I had a C-Section on June 11,2002 & met the second love of my life,AJ & I have never looked back & never been happier.It's a tough job at times but the rewarding part of it outweighs any of the bad times.As I look back it wasn't the kids I despised but how they were being raised.I have never let AJ run ramped through a restaurant or yell in the movie theater.Here is a bit abt the important ppl in my life:


AJ on his scooter..:)

My son is definitely a bright happy & cheerful personality within our house.He has an abundance of energy & is so full of life.His favorite things currently at the moment are:Pokemon cards,video games,Star Wars,Bakugan & building things with his Legos.he is very creative I might add.I love my son!


Me & my hubby on our wedding day leaving 4 our honeymoon..

 My hubby is he next important person in my life.We have been together 11 years.We have had alot of ups & downs but have been there for each other thru thick & thin.In 2009 I was in the hospital with Viral Meningitis & lost alot of my memory didn't even know him at one point in time.Last year he had a heart attack & had two stents put in & alot had to change our eating habits & we had to start exercising.All in all I love my lil family!

SAHM,Wife & Domestic Goddess

I seem to keep myself extremely busy being a SAHM also filling my days with volunteer work & going to school for AJ's holiday parties & programs.The today & tomorrow are a whirlwind of things to do..I do Pinterest online,my blog & I have Facebook.I have lots of crafts I want to finish up b4 Christmas.Outside of all that when I'm not running errands I am doing laundry,cooking,baking & straightening & cleaning the house-(I absolutely hate not having everything in its proper place).I stay busy so there's never a DULL moment..& who knows why I struggle falling asleep @ night becoz Lord knows I'm tired..lol I looked at the clock last night well this morning & it said 1:30am & here I am still attempting to fall asleep.With that said I am looking forward to the upcoming holidays & inviting over family for dinner..if there's one thing I have going for myself it's the ability to have people over & show them a good time via food,desserts,music,decorations & good conversation.It comes second nature..I look forward to it & enjoy doing it.I sat with AJ last night & was helping him with his homework & I honestly can't remember doing any of the stuff he is doing at my age.Seriously my son is in 3rd grade & they have Math stuff I don't even understand & I mean I know I totally suck @ Math but seriously?? When he was in first grade he was writing sight words & making complete sentences with them which still for a first grader I cannot recall for the life of me doing stuff like that.In my mind I recall coloring pictures,poasting things together,ABC's & just learning to count.Wow things have advanced since I was in school..kinda scary! Outside of school we go to church & I try to instill in AJ the things he is supposed to do & I try to be a good role model for him..I don't care if AJ wants to be a Janitor or a Dr when he grows up as long as he is happy,has a good heart & knows how to unconditionally love himself.I myself am not without flaws I'm a human..I don't pass judgement on people only based on their actions.If u commit a crime,live for drama or have closed minded views will I have an opinion..I will NEVER judge based on the color of their skin,age or any of that stuff.That should never be a factor in who a person is inside! OK I've rambled enough so I'll go for now..prayers & hugs to you & yours!

Life..& other things in my world..:)

We are planning to sleep on our air mattress in the living room floor in front of the fire..cozy! Saturday we are heading to Gainesville for Jessica & Adrien's birthday 2 big birthdays..Jessica is 30 & Adrien is a year old.Sunday is church & I hope to rest that afternoon...life isn't promised to us in the next months,weeks,days or even minutes...Eddie's sister called him & told him his 44 yr old nephew dropped dead this morning of a massive heart attack..he was getting ready to take his kids to school.Check out the pics...
