30 Randoms

1. I am a Chocolate freak! I ate half a pan of brownies last week. That is why I don't ever make brownies.

2. I hate when people drink out of milk cartons or juice bottles, if they do it becomes there drink. Martin thinks it is weird but for some reason it becomes contaminated even if it is my husbands germs.

3. I love it when everything has a place but I can never get to this place in my house. I always feel like everything is unorganized and cluttered.

4. I love to go on walks. I think it is the greatest part of my day.

5. I miss the house I grew up in. Walking through the door after a long day, sleeping in my parents giant room, and jumping on the trampoline.

6. I miss having a dog. Dogs always love you and want to be around you. Good thing I have Charlotte now.

7. I can never find the perfect jeans. I feel like I do and then I gain or lose weight and they aren't perfect anymore.

8. I don't like it when there are crumbs on the floor. If I can see them I have to vacuum within 48 hours.

9. I feel like people will judge me for the cleanliness of my house. I try my best to keep it clean and I think that is why it bothers me when people don't clean up messes in my house. I don't want to be judged for someone else's mess. Poor Martin and Charlotte.

10. I feel like I am suppose to do more with myself but I dunno what. Being a mom is great but I don't feel like I am living up to my potential. I always feel like this, I think I have my whole life. I think about going back to school or work but I dunno.

11. I hate not being able to close a curtain. We don't have window coverings on our sliding glass door and it freaks me out every night. I think that crazy scary people are looking in.

12. I don't like the feeling of being alone in the world. I haven't had that feeling in a long time and hope I never feel it again.

13. I worry about my sister. I always hope that she won't be so sensitive about other people actions and be more forgiving.

14. I love lemons. I love to eat them with a spoon!

15. I miss my mom.

16. I love to craft/sew without interruptions. Like 4 full hours of crafting or sewing with no distractions would be amazing.

17. I love it when I create things that are actually cool. I spent hours making something and It turned out amazing. That is a great feeling. I usually use my sister as approval, she is a hard judge.

18. I like to make gifts for people. If I could, I would do it all day.

19. I am a compulsive returner. If I buy something and don't use it or wear it within a week I take it back. Target probably thinks I am insane.

20. I love a good salad.

21. I love mini vans. I swore I would never own one but got stuck with one out of desperate times. Ever since I think they are the greatest cars ever designed.

22. I am ashamed of how un-flexible I am now. I can barely do the splits. I use to have to use multiple panel mats and do middle splits with panel mats on both sides. And everyone loved my needle positions.

23. I love getting my hair cut because they style it so great....but I hate that it never looks the same again.

24. I am embarrassed about how horrible a reader I am. I really just don't enjoy reading. I try to make myself finish books but it never works.

25. I like the feeling of being taken care of.

26. I like the feeling after a long shower.

27. I like friendly people but I am not always friendly. I think that is something I need to work on.

28. I get confused when I think about money in a bank account. It is really just numbers in a computer. It makes no sense to me anymore. I mean credit cards and online banking, it seems like money doesn't really exist, yet it rules our worlds. It also seems like people should be able to cheat the system, like in the movie Office Space.

29. I want Ginger to move back to AZ. I always think about how much fun it would be to go over to her house and hang out a couple of times a week.

30. I love Sonic ice.....Oh it is soooo great. Especially in the summer.

A Comment on Martin's MySpace Page


This was a post I made before Martin and I were engaged. It is funny to think that at the time we didn't even know we were gonna get married and have babies and now my MySpace profile picture is of Charlotte and I. It made me happy when I saw that Martin kept it on his MySpace page and deleted everyone else's lame comments.

So much has happened in 2 years. We got married, graduated from college, had a baby and bought a house! We are both cool!

A cool tree


I took a walk today with Charlotte. I saw this tree and had to take a picture!

Bugz Play



For the last few weeks I have been working on Elli's costume for her school play. She was suppose to be a caterpillar that turned into a butterfly. This made the costume much harder to create. She had a yellow, white black puffy wrap that she was suppose to wear and then the butterfly was suppose to pop out of it. Unfortunately do to bad planning by the teachers the caterpillar part of the play was taken out. So Elli was just a butterfly, but the best butterfly of the show. All the other girls had store bought wings. Elli's were homemade with love!
