UPDATE

So i haven't updated this in a while so I thought i would put a quick little note. We had a good thanksgiving, I made my first ever turkey and it turned out extremely well. My dad even said it was the best turkey he ever had. Yes I did take pictures of it because it was my 1st. I have to give a shout out to my friend Teresa, who gave me some pointers on how to cook my turkey.

Ryan had his laser eye surgery done on the Friday after thanksgiving and can now see. I was trying to be all nice and be a good girlfriend and decided to go and rent him a movie for the weekend since i knew we would be staying around the house. Well needless to say, I got a movie that had subtitles that he would have to read. His eyes are good and he can see now without glasses or contacts.

We have Andrew this weekend and are planning on putting up our outside lights and getting our Christmas tree while he is in, so i am sure that we will have some fun little stories to tell.

Game weekend

So Andrew was in this weekend and here lately it seems as thought Ryan, myself and Andrew have been spending a lot of time together doing family style stuff, this weekend was card game weekend. Saturday we played a couple of games of Uno and we finally all decided that it was time for a new game, so I remembered that I had bought a card game of Deal or No Deal. We decided to play it and Andrew was the first contestant on Deal or No Deal and long story short he picked the Million Dollar Case, not only once but he did it again the next day while I was away scrap booking. I told him if he saw the winning lottery numbers to let us know. After a day of playing cards, we went and got milkshakes and came home and all climbed into bed and watched Evan Almighty ( which was very good) all in all It was another fun weekend of downtime.

1st Tastefully Simple Party

So I had my 1st party this Friday, My wonderful friend Rachel held it for me and it was huge success. The sales were great and I got three bookings 2 of which our outside my existing circle of friends. I have some pictures to post but don't have them on the computer yet.

PLAYING WITH THE MAC

Andrew and I had some fun playing with the built in camera today on the new computer, you can do all sorts of stuff and make you look all funny, We were laughing really hard.

I got an Apple

So I got an apple computer tonight, so far I am really liking it, it will take some getting used to but I am happy that I don't have to beg to use the other computer because it is all mine.

TRICK OR TREAT THE PIRATE HAS NO FEET!!

So we got to dress up this year for halloween at work. I decided to be Queen of the Broomstick. There were only 4 of us that dressed up at work, but it was fun. Also Andrew wanted to decorate outside this year, so we have have a new friend in our yard.

Andrews Birthday

Andrews Birthday was October 5,th but since I just started this I thought I would post some pictures of it.

We just had family and some close family friends of Ryan's family and my family over and had a party. Ryan's mom and dad were in, so it was really nice to have them there.

Andrew had a lot of fun and couldn't believe how many people were there. If I do say so myself, he had the coolest birthday cake ever that was designed by mama socks, daddy and Paula.

Kalebs football team is Super Bowl Bound

So this Sunday night Kaleb's footbal team play in their playoff game and won. The score was 26-6. The game was at 6:00 at the Blanchester High School so they got to play under the lights. This win now makes them 10-0.They will be playing this Saturday in the Super Bowl at 3:15 pm.

At first we did not want him to play, but now we have all come to enjoy watching him and I really hope that him and his teammates continue playing together through the upcomming years because they seem to know how to work as a team.

By the way for those of you who don't know Kaleb is my 13 year old nephew who is a huge part of my life.

Keep your fingers crossed that they win!!

This weekend

So Andrew was in town this weekend and we all had some good quality time together.

Friday- I got home from the party and the boys were playing on the computer, I went in to watch a movie and when I came back in to see how they were doing on their game, I found Andrew curled up on his dad's lap in the computer chair sleeping. It was so cute.

Saturday- We got up early and went to Jake's birthday party, the kids had a lot of fun and Andrew got over 300 tickets to buy stuff. When we got home that day,I baked some brownies for my nephews football team because they were going to be in the playoffs on Sunday, as I was baking Andrew came down and said it sure did smell good and asked why we never have cookies in the house, so after I was done with the brownies, I made Andrew some Homemade chocolate chip cookies. That night we decided that we were going to have movie night so Andrew made us some popcorn (all by himself, with some explanation from me) and we made some homemade ice cream and all snuggled in for Spiderman 3.

Sunday- we woke up and lounged around the house and then we had to go and take Andrew back.

By the way for the record, I just have to say that Andrew has decided that when he is in that between Ryan,Nugget(his dog) and me that each one of us will get a day of lovin' meaning that he will give us hugs and kisses on our assigned days. So he assigned Ryan Friday, Me on Saturday and Nugget on Sunday. I am so excited that I get the longest day and Ryan was upset that he only got Friday night so he now gets Saturday morning as well.

I found a New Hobby!!

I attended a Tastefully Simple party on Friday night. I had lots of fun and have now decided that I am going to become a consultant and sell it on the side. I am looking at as a way to get out of the house a couple of nights a week instead of sitting around on the couch and make some extra money at the same time. And who doesn't like going to a party designed around eating.

Wish me luck!!

I decided to start blogging

So here I am, I have started a blog. Ryan's sister has one for her family and I enjoy looking at it to see how the kids are doing and what they have been up to, so I am following Kristen's lead so that our friends and family can see how we are doing and what we are up to. I hope that I can keep up with as good as Kristen does.
