It's been a while!!!

so it has been a very long time since I wrote on my blog!!

i'm not going to do a very long blog right now, but just want to catch everyone up!!

Chris and I are doing well!! Our anniversary was wonderful and life have just been great for us lately!

I am at my sisters house right now for the Thanksgiving Holidays and Chris and my dad are driving up on Wednesday.

We are still trying to get pregnant, but we are not too worried about it b/c we know it's not our timing that matters but God's!!

I am having a blast in Georgia and cannot wait for Chris to get here!!

Well I hope everyone is doing well and have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Life is Good!!!

I am just so happy and content with my life!! I was thinking about my life last night and how it is actually pretty simple!! I don't have anything to be stressed or freaked out about. We are now saving money and paying debt off. So i'm not stressed out about money!! I love my job and on Monday I will start working with Pre-K. So i'm not stressed out about my job!!I know we are getting a house in 6-7 months. So i'm not stressed out about getting a house! Finally, I know God is a faithful God and has always been there for Chris and I so we will be blessed with a baby when it is God's time!!! So i'm not stressed about having a baby!! I have a pretty carefree life!!

anyways so to what's been going on....

I found out on Tuesday that they are allowing me to transfer from the class that i'm in to a Pre-K class!! I am so super excited about that!! I put in for this transfer 2 weeks ago and they told me that they didn't know if they were going to allow me to make such a move in the middle of the school year. So I stepped back and just prayed about it!!

On Wednesday which was yesterday they called me into the office and sat me down and told me that i'm getting a big bonus this Friday!!! I only get paid once a month on the 26th of each month, their not even going to wait to put it with my paycheck they are giving it to me tomorrow!! I am so excited!! Extra money is always wonderful!!!

We went to church this past Sunday for the first time in a while.. the fact that we haven't been in a while isn't something i'm proud of but we had been moving and letting other things destract us from going! Church was wonderful!! It felt so wonderful to just feel the presence of God all around!! Pastor Jay started a new series called "Supernatural" and it was amazing!! After church we went to bon bons which is a new bakery place on Greenwell Springs Rd. in between church and Wax Rd. It was so good!!! They serve breakfast and lunch items as well as sweet stuff!! We really liked it.

I'm looking forward to this weekend b/c i'm going to be able to see almost all my close friends. Saturday morning us girls are getting together at Lauryn's house to have breakfast and all enjoy some time together. Then Saturday afternoon we are going to Terry and Kim's house for the LSU vs. Florida game!! I am super excited about this game!! Then Sunday Chris and I are going to have our day together. We will go to church, then go have lunch somewhere, then go out to the mall and walk around and enjoy being just the two of us!! Then maybe on Monday little miss Laurel will make her way into the world!! I'm am so excited and cannot wait to meet her!! I know Rachel is probably freaking out about everything but she is going to be an amazing mom!!

Well i'm going to go watch 'Private Practice'. I don't have to be at work until 11:30 b/c the kids don't have school today! It is parent/teacher conference day.

I hope everyone has a wonderful week and I'll see most of you this weekend!!!

Relaxed!!!

WE FINALLY GOT MOVED!!!

As you can see i'm very excited about being moved!! I hate moving!!! Now when I get off of work I can relax and not have to worry about going between houses and packing things and going to storage.

This week seems to be moving along at a slow pace for me.

Last weekend was a good one. Chris's brother Josh and his wife Michelle came down with the baby so we got to see Katherine for the first time!! She is so adorable and I held her for the majority of the time we were around them!! I know Chris was happy to spend some time with his brother since he hadn't seen him in forever!!

This weekend should be wonderful!!! Chris is off on Saturday and Sunday!! On Saturday we are going to meet Ashlie and Lauryn at some party stores to find stuff for the costume party then we are going to the mall!!! I am so excited about this halloween b/c it will be my first time to dress up!! I am going to be Little Red Riding Hood and Chris is going to be the Big Bad Wolf!!!

I just wanted to catch up on my blogging hopefully soon I will not be so busy and be able to keep it up better!!!

Have a Wonderful Day!!!!

Awesome Weekend!!

Today is Sunday and we have so much to do!! What happened to Sunday being a day of rest?!? Well, Chris is getting all of his rest it's almost 12:00 and he is still sleeping! We have to pack some more stuff then we are going to bring some of the boxes to the storage unit.

Saturday was such a fun day!! I woke up and relaxed and packed some stuff. I got dressed around 1:00 and Ashlie, Kim, and I went and got our nails done. It did not take to nail place long to do them and they look so good! After getting our nails done we went to hooters to hold a table for the LSU game. We got there at 3:15 and the game didn't even start until 6:45!! We had fun having girl time though. We each ordered a drink and shared some fried pickles. The time went by fast just talking and having fun. Finally everyone showed up and we watch the amazing game!! We had 16 people in our party and it was just a blast.

The first half of the game we were behind, but as everyone showed know by now LSU always makes the comeback in the second half of the game. LSU won the game 26-21!!!! GEAUX TIGERS!!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful work week and hopefully it will go by fast!! We have to move out next weekend!!

What's going on?!?!

I was so excited when I signed on today and saw that just about everyone updated their blog!!

This weekend was so much fun!! Friday night I went to the melting pot with my mom and sister Lendie!! We had so much fun, it was my moms first time to go.
Saturday I woke up and just relaxed for a little bit then we went to Terry and Kim's house for the LSU vs. North Texas game. We had a blast. Ashlie and Jacob came, as well as Lauryn and Tommy. We didn't really watch much of the game b/c we were winning by so much. We mostly played games and just hung out.
Sunday Chris and I went to his grandmother's house to celebrate his dads birthday!!

The only thing that didn't go so well this weekend is that our hot water heater broke!!! We have no hot water!! Thank God my best friend lives next door to me and said we can go over there to take showers. So far we have just been taking cold showers but I think tomorrow morning i'm going to go over there if that is ok.

We have starting packing to move out of our house by Oct. 1. We also started renting a storage unit that is climate controlled to store our stuff in. The man who owns that storage company we are renting from was so nice that he let us pay for Oct. and have Sept. for free!! We don't have to pay again until Nov. This is good b/c as we get stuff packed we can bring it to the storage unit instead of just letting it pile up till the 1st of Oct.

School was good today except that one of my kids was just dead set on breaking my arm, which obviously didn't happen!! Then at the end of the day when I thought my day was over one of the bus drivers brings a kid back to school saying that no one was at the house to get the kid. I took the child by the hand and brought him into the office to see what we needed to do. The principal said that the bus driver needed to bring the kid back to the house b/c someone was there. When I walked back outside the driver had left already. When we tried to get in touch with the driver he refused to come back and get the child. This really pissed me off b/c I didn't leave school until 4:20 dealing with an issue that the bus driver just threw on me!! I eventually left and the vice principal stayed with the child. I still have no idea out the child got home!!

Well this post is longer then what I was planning on. Have a Wonderful Day!!

We have Cable and Internet!!!!

Ok so since Monday Sept. 1 we have not had Cable or Internet. I never realized how much we watch t.v and use the computer!!

We were truly blessed during the hurricane. We did not have any trees fall on our house like so many other people did. We stayed at my parents house during the hurricane b/c during Katrina they only lost power for about 15 min. This time they lost power for 4 days!! The power was out at our house for almost 5 days!! Everything that was in our refridgerator we had to throw away! This storm completely sucked and cost us a lot of money, but I still say we were blessed b/c everything of ours that is worth anything was ok.
I never realize how much I take little everyday things for granted. I just assume in the morning that when I wake up and flip a switch the light will come on. There are so many people that don't have that luxury and yet I don't think twice about it. My eyes have really been opened through all of this!!

We returned back to school this monday after being out a week because of Gustav. East Baton Rouge Parish schools haven't gone back to school yet. Their first day back is going to be this coming up Monday. I am so happy that we still went to school even though they didn't because they are going to have to make the missed time up somewhere. I'm happy that we won't be going to school through June!!

I am missing all of my friends but I know that we will be getting together soon!! I hope everyone's life is starting to get more back to normal!!

Home Early

Yesterday I started feeling bad, then today when I woke up I felt horrible!! I went in to school anyway, b/c I wasn't going to leave them hanging. After being there for about 2 hours they told me to go home and get better, I guess they didn't want me getting anyone sick!! I just put in for a substitute for tomorrow, so hopefully someone will pick the job up or my class will be short a person tomorrow as well.

Hopefully I'll be able to return to work on Friday!! I hate being sick, and I actually hate having to take time off for this!! I was wanting to save up all my time so if I were to get pregnant I would have some time for just in case. Oh well, I have more time I guess it's just two days.

Friday after work we are suppose to be driving up to West Monroe to visit Chris' brother Josh and his little family. We have still yet to see Katherine in person. If i'm still sick then I won't be going b/c I don't want to get the baby sick!! We were going to come back home late on Sunday, but now with Hurricane Gustav we will have to leave early Sunday to get home and get prepared.

If Hurricane Gustav decides to visit Louisiana we will be going to my parents house with the boys. I just don't feel safe where we live right now to ride out an hurricane!! I most likely don't feel safe b/c there is a huge tree that is hanging over our bedroom, that I just know wants to fall down.

well i'm going to try to lay down again, my nose won't stop running so it is impossible to sleep!!
