A little couple's questions

Happy Hump Day!!!!!
 
 
I was back to work today, and my nasea was gone, but a chest cold set in. Oh well, I wasn't wanting to take another day off...so I bucked up, and went. It was a good day, but it's sooooo cold her...right now it's about -22 out. I love snow. I love love love. I just wish it wasn't so bitter. I don't mind a snowy December! I took this picture driving to work today..
 
 
 
(yes- I have the Christmas station on!)
 
 
So awhile back I saw this on a friend's blog, and thought it was a good idea for a post. As a newlywed I am beyond happy with my husband. I feel so blessed to have this wonderful man in my life, but once in awhile being a newlywed hasn't always been a "honeymoon" and it's an adjustment, of course one that we get through and it only makes us stronger. I love him beyond words. I thought this fun post would happen to help remind us of those cute little things!!!

Kae: leaving stuff piled around or pop bottles on the night stand
Scott: Chewing.. (gross I wish he would quit)
 
4. Where was our first kiss?
 
Kae: at his house
Scott: at my house
 
 
5. Who said I love you first?
 
Kae: me...on the fourth of July
Scott: YOU DID!
 
6. If you were ordering us drinks - what would you order?
 
Kae: Me: Bloody Mary or Moscato Scott: Bud light or Bloody Mary
Scott: Her: Wine (bottle) haha Moscato Him: Bud light (Smarty pants) *If it was a football game we would both drink bloody mary's
 
 
7. What was the worst meal we ever made?
 
Kae: Spinach spaghetti
Scott: the only meal we threw out...what was it Kae? (spinach spaghetti)

9. What is his favorite movie?
 
Kae: Karate Kid, Braveheart (after he answered I wanted to slap myself I knew that!)

Let it snow

So as much as I hate the cold, I am really wanting an old fashioned snowy Christmas... we used to have them all the time when I was younger and I feel like in the last few years we get a few big snow storms and then it melts. Don't get me wrong in the mountains here we get a ton of snow, just not in town as much...
 
So as I still didn't feel good and took today off, I was pleased to wake up to a blanket of snow..it is still snowing which makes me happy.
 
The only thing that doesn't...is that its supposed to be artic temps tomorrow... warnings are coming out like crazy.
 
 
 
I got to relax all day, and ended up resting and watching Love Actually all day. and when I say all day, I mean all day. Milli and I snuggled and I am finally feeling human again.
 
I came home to my husband shoveling the walks and making sure I had gas in my vehicle because he said he doesn't want me outside more then I have to be! Milli joined him in her coat...! She wanted to attack the shovel!
 
 
I adore both of them!
 
 
So on a cute note, the song Let it Snow keeps playing since I have my Christmas music on, and I have a cute story. My pop-e proposed to my grandma at Christmas time in 1945. The song playing when he did...Let it Snow.... I love hearing that song. They eloped on Jan. 12. They were married 65 years before my grandma got ill and passed. Love that song.
 
 
Happy Tuesday. I hope you are all staying warm!
xxoo

Thanksgiving recap and Monday...

 
 
Hello!! I bet you thought I forgot my blog, actually I didn't. I decided since I was going home for the holiday that I wouldn't blog and just relax and hang with my family. I haven't seen them in awhile and was super excited!
 
Scott had a diabetes appointment on Wednesday, and decided it be best to stay in Wyoming (enter sad face) He will be joining me for Christmas. So Milli and I packed up the vehicle and drove the nice long drive to my parents! It was a nice low key night, and I was so tired that Milli and I just snuggled. My mom captured honestly a great picture and M and I. It's up with my favorites.
 
 
 
Thanksgiving Day: We cooked, and played cards all day. That night we ate some delicious turkey dinner, and then played more cards. My family and I decided to try black friday shopping at midnight since we never had. We had some success but I am not sure I will do it again....
 



 
Friday morning, I some how I woke up at 7:30 after going to bed at 3 am to have breakfast with a high school classmate and her son! so good to see them!
 
 
When I got home from breakfast my family was ready for shopping round 2. This went on ALL DAY. I didn't get home tell 5 that evening. I couldn't believe I was still functioning.
 
 
When I walked into my parents house they surprised me with Scott and I's wedding gift. They had it special ordered and its for our movie room. It is amazing to sit in and I LOVE it.
 
 
That evening I got to see my best friend Erika, her hubby, and sweet baby Jude. It's been a month and a half since I saw him and couldn't believe how he grew!
 

 
Saturday I did nothing. I am pretty sure I was in my pj's for about 75% of the day.... that was my day.
I just loved hanging with my family, and so did milli
 
 
 
Sunday I had to come home and I was so sad. The wind was blowing about 50 mph and it was a long drive. I started to decorate last night, but Scott and I still have to go get our tree. we want a real one this year.
 
Today: Well my morning didn't start so hot, but got better once I got to work.... the wind is still blowing and we are supposed to hae 70 mph wind! and then the snow is supposed to come. I don't mind the snow but the wind can stop. Work was going fine, and then bam. I felt like I was going to get sick everywhere. I went asking for some tums and my boss saw me and she said I looked like a ghost and needed to go home and rest. So I got sent home. So I am laying here trying not to lose it... I hate being sick, but nausous is the worse to me...
 
I hope your Monday's went well, and that while I was gone from blogging your week/weekend was wonderful!
 
xxoo

weekend... and emotional

 
Hello everyone. I hope you had a great Monday, and that your weeks are short like mine!
 
 
My weekend wasn't super eventful, but sometimes that is nice.
 
 
Friday: Scott and I decided we needed a night in. We were both tired from hectic weeks, and wanted sometime together. We put in some episode of The Office. They still make me laugh, and we were in bed before 10! (but not before some cuddles with M)
 
 
Saturday: I slept AWFUL that night...I woke up with a sore throat. boo. Scott got up at 5 am to go hunting, and I couldn't go back to sleep. So Milli and I had a great day of doing absolutley nothing. We watched movies, took naps and cuddled all day.
 
Sunday: I finally told myself I have got to get some of our boxes unpacked and put away before I go crazy. So Scott helped me (THANKFUL) and we got quite a bit done. Not everything, but still some progress. I also turned an old dresser into a bookshelf/tv stand. It's still drying so I can't wait to show you pictures hopefully tomorrow! Milli was very helpful yesterday...
 
 
 
Monday: Oh Monday.....My school day went well. We did our "Thanksgiving" dinner and so I ate way too much at school.... but the kiddos enjoyed. Tomorrow is pj day so I am looking forward to that, and then its off to see my momma! Can't wait.
 
But on a weird/emotional note. I can't stop crying lately. I am struggling with being emotional. I don't know who to trust at times. I worry about friends and if they are back stabbing me, and it's somewhat consuming my mind.... Am I wrong to be like this? ugh. These quotes made so much sense, but it's hard when you think you can trust a person.... and then at the same time are unsure...
 
 
Sorry to end on a downer.... I had to get it out...

5 Friday!

 
Happy Friday everyone!
 
 
I'm joining the link up for 5 on Friday!
 
 
 
 
ONE: So some exciting news as to why I wasn't blogging yesterday. One of the kiddos I teach...well his stepdad runs the movie theater here. We were talking when he picked up his kid about when Catching Fire would be showing. Well he was doing a sneak peek for some of his friends, and he said I could go! So my cousin Courtney and I went and  got to watch Catching Fire, YESTERDAY before it was open to the public.... FOR FREE. Yeah...I was so stoked! I loved loved the books, and this just was such an awesome way to end my day! Ps. the movie.... AHHHHH MAZING
 
 
Highly recommend it!
 
TWO: I have an amazing friends....I am pretty blessed...and when I got home from work today I found a package at my front door. One of my amazing best friends, Erika, got me this beautiful painting "just because" "it was you" :) she knows me so well. love you.
 
 
THREE: Every Friday I get to watch the younger ones for an hour. We call it toddler group, but I have a family friend who brings her daughter, and we take a photo every Friday. Love it!
 
 
FOUR: I am so looking foward to hopefully getting out of town tomorrow, to Casper for some actual shopping. I would love to get enough stuff for a photo wall in the living room. I would also love to finally print some wedding photos! Civilization watch out.. (if the weather/roads cooperate)
 
Ps. If you have any ideas for a photo wall, send me the pics!
 
FIVE: I love coming home to Milli. We always cuddle, and she is my buddy. Last night we laid in bed an watched Grey's while Scott watche Thursday night football. She sneaks into bed also with me at about 5:30 every morning...good thing we have a king size bed so her dad doesn't notice!
 
love her.
 
 
who couldn't love that face?
 
Happy Weekend Friends!
xxoo

Weekend. (Birthday/Wine)

Happy Tuesday.
 
 
I hope you all had a fabulous weekend, and Monday. I was so exhausted I was in bed by 8 last night, and totally spaced my Monday post.
 
 
So Friday was my dad (step)'s birthday, well Saturday was my sister Morgan's birthday. Scott and I had these big plans to meet her in Laramie for her birthday, because it was a big one.... 21!!!!
 
Well we woke up to snow, cold, and 50+ winds. So, needless to say the roads were too bad to travel, and I had quite a few tears. Morgan is my first sibling born, the sibling to make me a sibling. So I was really excited to help her celebrate. But we have decided to make it up to her a weekend.
 
 
Morgan is amazing. I will never forget first seeing her, and how proud of her I was, and I still am. She is so kind hearted, and always try to put herself in the other person's shoes. She is sweet, smart, and is the wityest (sp) person I know.
 
Love you Morgan Amanda.
 



 
 
 
 
So since our plans got completely shut down, we found out wine tasters was going on. So we decided to have a date and go. It was a lot of fun, but I was mainly happy just to finally be spending time with my husband!
 

 
Sunday was a relaxing day for the most part. Scott enjoyed football, and I slept and read all day. (we aren't as young as we used to be haha)
 
Luckily this week is going fast so far, exactly one week from today we will finally be on holiday!
I love my job, but I am ready for a break with family.
 
Happy Tuesday!
xxoo

Birthday for Papa... and a little extra

Happy Friday.
 
I hope you all have had a wonderful week. Mine was hectic, and I couldn't be more glad to welcome in Friday. I love Friday's because we get off work at 1.
 
But more importantly today is my dad (step)'s birthday!!!
 
He is an amazing guy, and if I was to list everything he has taught me since I was 5 years old this blog would be more of a novel. He has been not only a great dad to my sisters and I, but a wonderful husband, teacher, coach, and just all around guy.
 
 
Happy Birthday Papa P. Hope you have a fantastic day.
 
 
 
 




 

 
love you!
 
 so a couple things I have to share from the week:
 
1. Alison my best Canadian friend sent Scott and I the most amazing wedding gift ever. I teared up honestly. It's a custome cutting board, that has our wedding invitation on it. Thank you again...amazing.
 
 
 
 
2. I love getting these snap chats from one of my besties. almost everyday. they make my day constantly.
 
 
3. Milli is constantly making me smile. This past week was a big basketball game. Kansas vs. Duke. I am a huge Duke fan. But a lot of my family are Kansas fans...but I had to get M in the spirit for the big game. (duke lost) still upset.
 
 
Then yesterday she literally pushed backed the curtain to look outside. Nosey much?


 
 
4. It was emotional week, and at the end of the day I just keep reminding myself how blessed I really am. Sorry for the lack of blogging, but like I said I was a little out of it.
 
 
so I am chosing happiness.
 
Happy weekend. xxoo
