Why is there a boy in my Celebrity Look a Like?

MyHeritage - free family trees, genealogy and face recognition">

I thought this was pretty funny. What the heck is Jesse McCartney doing in my circle. Maybe he is the one who should be embarrassed looking like a girl. My friend Audrey had Patrick Swayze and Elvis Costello in hers. At least I am not alone when it comes to looking like a boy. Should I take it personally that it thinks that picture of Daryl Hannah is the best to compare me too? Her makeup is Nuts!! But to have Kelly Kapowski (I KNOW is didn't spell that right) is a dream come true....what girl didn't want to look like her on Sat. mornings watching Saved by the Bell?
Good Luck with yours? It's a good laugh for about 2 minutes.

Friends and Family

They are the best! We had such a good weekend with our friends and family. It started on Friday Night with a Dance Party/Game night with our small group from church. It was such a FUN night! We are very blessed with this group of people. We had a blast eating, dancing and playing boys verses girls in Catch Phrase. We totally beat the boys.

DANCE PARTY, Watch out!



Julie was awesome!
Traci made it hard for Jay to pass the game...hee hee hee.


Eveidently, I thought something was really funny. Not sure what though...














To bad, so sad you lost boyz!



Then Sunday night we went to one of my most favoritest (I know this isn't a real word but it means business when I use it) resturants in the Metroplex...Joe T Gracia's. Oh my goodness, That is some good food! We went with my saster (means "sassy sister") and bro-in-law. We had a really good time.








Hope everyone else had a good weekend!

Baby, Grammy's and Cookies....

So this past weekend I got to meet my new buddy, Campbell Murray. She was born 3 weeks ago and is SO precious! She's got some good parents too:) It was fun to hold her and it was fun to hand her back to her mama when she started crying.





Then on Sunday night we went over to the Duty's to watch the Grammy's. I know it doesn't sound that exciting but it was! The show was pretty good. Traci and I decided to give our own performance. The boys thought we were amazing.












So today is Valenitnes Day. I don't really care that much for it because it's just one day. I think everyday should be special:) My husband is a lucky guy, I know. Anyway, I do believe that Valentines is a day for eating all the sweets and snacks you can!! So I brought two of my favorite desserts to work today Rice Crispy treats (with regular & Cocoa crispies) and Funfetti cookies (thank you Kristen Grissom). Funfetti cookies are the most amazing and simple cookie you will every bake, next to slice and bake. Have you ever had them before? If not, I encourage you to try them. But don't blame me if you gain 10 pounds, because you will want to eat them ALL... promise.







Well that's all I got. Hope everyone had a good day!

Weekend Update...


So this weekend was good. Thank you for asking:)


I had breakfast at my FAVORITE breakfast spot in Dallas, Breadwinners. It is the best! That is another one of my bold statements but I really believe it. It has the best cinnamon rolls. I mean the best! I Highly reccomend you give it a shot. And if you don't live in Dallas, come see me and I will take you. Promise:)



SUPER BOWL!




Sunday, I hung out with my family for a Super Bowl party. It was a lot of fun and it was such a good game. See picture above.

Jason got so excited that it completly wore him out.


Evedintly this is a "Leigh Ann face". Who knew, not me.

And my sister was getting over a cold and being very modest about it.



I'm going to get in trouble for this picture, sorry mom.




Don't get me wrong, the game was good but so was this little cell phone game by sister and I got into. I beat her so bad.
Over all, it was a great evening with the family, and I am glad the Underdogs won.
Hope everyone else had a good weekend.

Some of my favorite things...

Seriously this list is too long. I like too many things but these three things are the latest and greatest in my life right now.

The first is an answered prayer.




Oh my goodness, has anyone ever had these before? Wow, they are so good. I made them this weekend for the first time and they were amazing! I mean it's nuts how good they are with how little calories they have. I am a brownie fanatic and these are on the top of my list. I encourage you to give them a whirl this week. And let me know what you think.


Second item I love so much is....



This stuff is amazing! My grandma told me about this product and it will get out almost ANY stain. Even if you have washed it already, put some of this magic goo on it and it will make the stain disappear. Now there are a few things it won't get out, but I have not met any of those stains yet. It has worked for me 100%. Very bold statement I know, but this stuff is crazy! The best part about it....it's ONLY $1. I'm not kidding! $1. You can only get it at Dollar General. It will last you for a couple of years! Thanks Memaw:)




Lastly, I am not afraid to admit that I love watching....


I know this is an old picture but it works. Growing up, this is what we watched for "family time". Seeing that my dad tried out for it in the early 90's, I loved this show! Now I love it again! I know it's totally cheesy but it sure is fun to watch. That Wolf gladiator is a little to weird and scary all at the same time. Anyway, you should check it out if you every get bored on a Monday night.


Well, that's just a few of my favorite things right now. Hope your Tuesday is good!


p.s. The comments about the pledge pin, well so what if I like to still wear mine:)

Killing Time

Ok, so since I don't have much to write about I figured I would catch every one up on what's been going on with me and my world. Hold on this could be kind of a long post. But full of pictures, so it should be some what entertaining.


Let's see we can start with our one year wedding anniversary last March. Jason surprised me with a weekend in Fort Worth. So much fun! Even though is just down the street from Dallas, it is such a cool place to hang out.




Then later that Month my mom, sister and I took a trip to NYC and had a blast! It was such a fun trip and I think we are going again this year:) Best part of that trip, we witnessed Canal Street (China Town) get shut down by under cover cops!! It was nuts! Good thing we had already gotten our what we needed. It was probably the Lord, because he knew I was going to spend way too much money that day:)







Then in May my Cousin Katie married my good friend Paul. That was a fun wedding to be in:)
She was a beautiful bride!




We all worked in the mail room at ACU. Best job ever...kind of. We all had a good time and got paid for it:)


In June My friend Kristen got married. That was a really neat wedding! I am very sad to say that I have lost the pictures from this event. I am not too happy about it either.


Also, my good buddy Myles got married in June. That was a good time.
Unfortunately, the bride and groom didn't stand still long enough for me to get a picture.


In July Jason and I went to Granbury with the Duty's for the 4th and then headed out the next day to Mexico for my birthday. Tons of fun, highly recommend it. However don't ever book your trip worryfreevacations.com...that is a whole other story, and a long one at that. Needless to say, out trip there and back was NOT worry free. Mexico was awesome though.





My husband is so strong. I promise that tree was about to fall over.

August, my (old) co-worker/good friend Ashley and I got to go to San Diego for work. It was Awesome! Then our husbands flew up together that Friday night and we spent the rest of the weekend hanging out. Went to the Zoo and had a blast!












September was boring.

October was NUTS! We were all over the place! We started with our vacation to Disney World. Awesome! We had such a good time it was just the two of us and we had not one care in the world. It was too much fun. So much fun (and a combo of bad behaved children) that we won't go back for a while. Then we went to Abilene for ACU Homecoming. It was my 5 year. Had a good time and got to catch up with a lot of fun people. See Pictures. Then we headed off to the Texas State Fair with my family. I LOVE FOOD. I LOVE FAIR FOOD! It was my sister and bro-in-law's first time to go. Gained a good 10 pounds that month. Oh well.
























November was Thanksgiving with my family. We had a good time. (Can't find the pictures:)

December was full of all kinds of events...Started off with my company party. Then I got laid off 13 days later. Awesome. But the Lord was working through all of it. Had our Small group Christmas party (we are blessed with a great group of people and some pretty cute babies:). Learned how to play Guitar Hero. My sister is Awesome! Spent Christmas with Jason's family. Had a good time.












Our good friends the Jacob & Melissa. They were visiting from California.

New years hung out with the Duty's. They are always a guaranteed fun time!







Finally caught up to January. Started my new job at Signature Floors & Interiors on the 2nd. I sell flooring (carpet/wood/tile) and doing design work. So if you need anything give me a call. I'm your girl!



You are caught up and over loaded on pictures. But at least you are 5 minutes closer to the weekend:)
