Day 10 – A photo of our favorite place to eat.

Wow, there are too many... So yea, I cannot choose just one.

Taco Bell ~ The 5 layer burrito is AMAZING.

Logan's Roadhouse ~ It's something about the rolls and peanuts on the floor that makes the food taste better.



Sweet Peppers Deli ~ I wish I could eat here more often. They have the best Chicken Caesar Wraps.

Zaxby's ~ One word... YUMMMM.

Olive Garden ~ Their breadsticks are terrific, but their Black Tie Moose Cake will make your leg shake. Oh and their Frozen Tiramusu is to die for if you like a little liquor.



And for dessert...

Frostbite ~ It's local and wonderful.

Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased.

Yes it was milk... Sad isn't it?

Day 8 – A song to match your mood.

Since I missed yesterday, I'll do 2 'days' today. :)
What song matches menstrual cramps, a headache, and hunger? Haven't found one that matches... so ummm... this should work for now, since I am watching the movie and all. It's a song that isn't depressing or upbeat, I just really love it.

Day 7 – Your dream wedding.

Well, didn't do my blog challenge on the 4th of July. Oops. But it's not because I was so busy, it was because I was at the ER with Bella. She broke out again and it's an apparent food allergy. She was fine and all cleared up after we waited 2 hours to ve seen! I hate the ER. You will be better or dead before they see you. UGH. We missed the fireworks and I was so excited to take them to their first fireworks show.
Anywho, on to the challenge. My dream wedding.
Mine was pretty nice, but we had like a $1,500 budget for the whole thing. I would have loved to had a dance floor, a sit down meal. Just all the makings of a traditional wedding. Maybe a beach ceremony too. That would have been amazing. Maybe if and when we renew our vows we can do all those things. My dress, though, was perfect. I loved it.

Eyes

Kaleb has my eyes. No doubt.

Love my Monkey. My bug too!

Day 6 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.

Day 5 – How important you think education is?

Exteremly. Simply put. I am a high school graduate and I was in college for 3 years until my job changed my schedule and made me choose, work or school. Well, I do have bills and, at the time, it was an easy decision. Keep working and know I am paying my bills or quit and not have enough income to keep up. I did find another job within a matter of months and time I got established there and ready to try going back, I got pregnant. I did leave that job because the pay wasn't good and if I stayed I would have been using my whole check to pay for 2 kids daycare. Wasn't worth it to me. So now I am a Stay at Home Mommy and ya know what, I wouldn't change it. I love being able to see my kids grow and not having to worry about missing a milestone in their lives. But in general, YES education is important. If school isn't for you, then at least graduate high school. You can do so much with a diploma than without one.

Mom

I've read this a million times before and I still cry everytime. THIS is the kind of mother I want to be, the kind God wants me to be.
*

A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?"
"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."
Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?"
God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."
"Who will protect me?"
God said, "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking it's life."
"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."
God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."
"You will simply call her, 'Mom.'"

Day 4 – Your favorite photograph of your best friend.

Friends come and go. Having kids has made me really understand friends. I don't have the friends I used to and I do get down about that a lot. Sometimes, I just feel like I need someone to talk to that isn't Jerry. I need to reconnect with some of my closer friends.
Since the kids though, my 'friends' have become something more of what I do to pass time when I am not with the kids or they are asleep. Friends are supposed to be your escape.

My Kindle.

I love this thing like no other. I've had it since Summer of 2009 and I have got my money's worth. I don't get to read like I did before the kids but when I do, I wear it out. I love to read and this thing is AWESOME.

Facebook.

Yeah, I get what you are thinking, but when I do actually talk to tangible people who aren't my husband, mom, or mother in law, this is where I am. It's the perfect social lifeline between the SAHM of twins and the world.

Can't forget my monkey and my bug. They make me who I am. I wanted one baby, I was terrified for 2, now I can't picture my life without them.

Lastly, I cannot forget God. He has honestly been the only person I can turn too. When I cannot talk to Jerry or anyone else, He listens. Whether the prayers are answered or not, I can at least get what I have to off my chest. THAT, my friend, is a true friend. When I saw only one set of footprints, it was then that He carried me. He's been doing that a lot lately.

Grandma's Swing

These pix needed a post all their own. They are too adorable! Oh and Kaleb is TOTALLY ready for football season! ROLL TiDE!!
