LET'S GO -----HOKIES!





As many of you know, Dan and I are VA TECH HOKIE FANS! This weekend, we watched our new starting quarter back, Tyrod Taylor, get us a nice "W". Here are some pictures of our antics, well really, my antics. Oh yeah, and our new jersies (sp??)! Aren't we just precious.












I love football season. In a couple weeks we will head to Nebraska for the Hokie game, followed by another trip to Tallahassee to watch FSU and VT play! Oh yeah, also pictured, Frank Beamer, the fearless leader of our Fighting Gobblers.




Kisses for the Coach.

Memory Lane



It's September and Dan and I's 2nd ....holy crap...2nd Anniversary is right around the corner (September 29). I was looking through old pictures, you know, from the wedding, and realized I seriously did not try very hard to look good for that special day. You'll notice, if you've seen me recently, or never knew me before this year, that I was about oh 30+ pounds heavier at the wedding!!!







For those of you have not seen me lately, my VA friends....I look much better!


I've also included a couple pictures of my brother and I, who I don't get to see very often but miss and love very much! The pictures speaks volumes about our relationship!

I can't wait for Jessie's wedding. She's engaged now, and hopefully will get married while I can enjoy it (before babies). If so, you are sure to see the third rendition of this dance (it began at his wedding). Oh, and incase there were ANY question of what song we could possibly dance like that to......"Baby Got Back!".

For the rest of you, I'll post a pic of me now if I can find a decent one so you can see the difference a couple years makes.

No One Reads This Anyway

I've decided that no one reads this stupid thing anyway. I've been trying to think of something clever to theme it on but what do you know, I'm not that clever. Lately this blog reflects exactly how my life is. I don't have time for weeks at a time to sit down and just write something. I've yet to post pictures that I have taken, although the majority of the time, I never take pictures, because I just don't have time. I do not have time. I have been reading a book called the "Power of Full Engagement." It's all about balancing your energy instead of your time. I get that we need to harness our energies: spiritual, physical, emotional etc... but at the end of the day, there are only 24 hours in the day and I've run out. I have really been spreading myself very thin lately. Dan doesn't appreciate it because I don't spend as much time with him. I play tennis every chance I get, which aren't many, and then I work both jobs still. I put in at least a minimum of 60 hours per week. Don't think I'm complaining though! I'd have it no other way. Ok, maybe I'd give myself like 26 hours in the day...but that's about it. I've discovered that if I'm not busy, I'm not happy. I prefer to lead an extremely productive life. So, I cram and I cram as many things into my days as I can and continue on with my life. I figure this will be good practice for becoming a mommy in about a year. I can't wait to be a mom. These are my thoughts, that no one reads, and I'm fine with that. I'll be looking for a few extra minutes to post more often, but until then....
