We Are SO Texan

This is not the “brave” post that I eluded to in my last blog; so that means I am still working up the nerve to post that other one. But in the mean time here is a post that proves my family and I are true Texans. :-)

We got us a truck and a four-wheeler.

We got us a deer feeder.

And we even got us a chainsaw.

God blessed Texas with His own hand. ;-)

Coming Soon

A new post is coming soon.

This Conversation Took a Weird Turn Somewhere

Text Message Conversation between my best friend and myself starting on January 4, 2010 at 9:17:53 PM

Me: Just an FYI for you- I hate sweaters and I want to move somewhere they are obsolete. Cause this Texas winter is letting me down...weeks of cold weather sucks.

Unit: So weird that it is so cold there- its like 50 here- just raining- crazy global warming :)

Me: Damn that global warming!

Unit: :)

Unit: I never win nothing. :(

Me: huh?

Unit: Husband beats me at ALL games- its no fun!! Makes me a sad girl. :(

Me: That's cause he is ridiculously competitive!

Unit: Haha- yes it is! But then he says I am always nice when I win- but either way he is always winning- grrrrrrr

Me: Lets kick his butt! Tell him I said he is fired if he doesn't let you win!

Unit: Hahaha- he still won't let me!

Me: Then you must secretly practice :)

Unit: I do sometimes on the Wii then I feel all good about myself and he crushes my dreams- so sad

Me: Well y'all are just not Wii compatible, divorce is imminent....sorry ;-)

Unit: Oh No!!!

Me: Hahahahaha!! I am only teasing...sort of :D

Unit: I just saw a huge block of jello on the Jack in the Box commercial- they were having a toga party and I thought man that would have been a crazy good idea :)

Me: LOL! That is the most random and most awesome text message ever! And yes that would have been a crazy good idea!

Unit: Haha- I figured you would appreciate it- I thought to myself 'Self you have got to tell the Unit about the ginormous block of jello!'

Me: You are cracking me up, I am seriously laying in bed laughing out loud like an idiot!

Unit: Hahahahaha! I am a funny girl! :)

Me: Its entirely possible that this entire text message convo is going to end up on my blog! Its too good not to share with the interwebs!

Wordless Wednesday- Don't Mess With Texas

So Much

I have so much I want to say but I'm scared. I feel like putting it out there makes it all the more real.

I'm going to try though, but just not right now.

So instead here is my first picture of 2010.

Marrying Off My Best Friend ;-) Hawaii Posts Part I

Like the best man said as we were walking back down the aisle, "Well all my friends are married now." Yep, its true. I married off my best friend. But she got herself a good one, and I guess we'll keep him. ;-)

Unit, you looked amazing!

BestFriendsForever

She only looks a little nervous, but absolutely gorgeous ;-)

Aww how cute are we!

Well it's done.......

And they lived happily ever after.....

Unit always remember what I told you on the night you got married, you will always be my best friend and I am here for you no matter what. We are a unit and no one can change that...not even a husband! :-)

True Story

Preface: After leaving my part-time job today, I decide I will go tan at the tanning salon. I told myself driving in the parking lot, "Self only tan in the level 1, you are out of upgrades. And you can't afford any more." I repeated this over and over.

Now on to the real story....

Tanning Boy: Hi welcome to (the place where I tan).

Me: Hi. (I hand over my scan card thing and scan my fingerprint)

Tanning Boy: Would you like to purchase any upgrades today, I see you're out?

Me: Umm.......

Tanning Boy: Level 3, 4 and 5 beds have new bulbs

Me: Ok you talked me into it. (I proceed to hand over my credit card)

Tanning Boy: Great, level 4 room 10 is all ready for you.

WHAT JUST HAPPENED?! I am such a sucker. I have ZERO self-control! All someone has to do is dangle something in my face and I pay up.

I tell you what though, I do love me some new bulbs. And the level 4 bed is my favorite. Yes, that is how I will rationalize this in my head. It is all worth it to be tan.....right?
