So as of today I am mostly done with my Christmas shopping. I only have to buy shoes and some clothes for Brayden, Chase is done, Kadin and Nathan a small toy,and gift cards for my sis, Devin, Grandpa, Lina, and Josh. For this time of year I am doing great! I am usually buying everything at last minute. I probably will by the gift cards at last minute, some of them I am trying to find gifts for but prolly won't. This year I was having problems finding stuff for Brayden. He's at this stage where all he wants to do is play with brothers toys, or balls. So I decided to get him stuff like cars, trains, monster trucks, and big dump trucks. Hopefully he likes everything. Jordan gave me $50 to help buy a Circuit cutter that I really wanted and was on sale for $100 instead of normally being $200. I am so excited. I got it out Saturday and was figuring out how to use it. I can not wait to get a room for all my scraping stuff. My sister also bought me this kick ass scrapbook kit for Christmas. I just finished my first album and have to only add pictures to the pages already made. So far it looks great! The boys look through it and are like WOW that's me!!! Well that's enough typing for tonight my finger is starting to not want to bend. Goodnight all!

As of Sunday I had a small tooth ache. Well while sleeping Sunday night my tooth ache became a tooth infection and my mouth swelled up. I went to my usual dentist, who last year told me to get the tooth surgically removed. I told him I have not had it removed because none of the oral surgeons around here take my insurance. He then proceeded to ask well what insurance do you have. I told him the medical card, he then looks at me like oh shit. Well he then asked if I had a different insurance last time I was there. I told him I use to have Cigna and the medical card, but since I am no longer working I no longer have Cigna. He then proceeds to tell me they are no longer kinda not taking the medical card. So pretty much they will accept it, but do not want to. So I am sitting there in agonizing pain, while he hurries me out of there. He prescribes me penicillin and Tylenol 3's even though I told him they do nothing for me for the pain. So I go home and while waiting for my medicine my face swells even more. My eye almost swelled up that bad. All this time Jordan is taking care of me and the 2 boys. He is being so sweet, rubbing on me and making sure I have everything I need. The boys were looking at me like I was a monster because one side only was swollen. So I started taking all medicine around 4 yesterday. I did not sleep yesterday, and am still swollen. The Tylenol 3's are barely helping me! Jordan went to buy me jello since that's all I can eat, because I can not open my mouth, and the store he went to only had Kool-aid jello and it was nasty! I have lost 2 pounds since Sunday, because of not eating. I am going insane here!!!! If anyone has any suggestion on how to get this swelling down by Thursday so I can eat me some turkey I would love to hear them.

P.S. I have been putting a cold wet washcloth on my face all the time, because it kinda of helps easy the pain.

Pictures I took yesterday.

So I decided to post some of the pictures I took yesterday of Jess and her sisters. Here they are tell me what ya think!

A long, but good day.

Today was a long day. I was babysitter for everyone in my family. I did not plan on watching 2 extra kids, but thats what I got. Nathan and Kadin are good boys. Especilaly when their parents are not here. They play well with Chase, but with Brayden they want to treat him like he is a little baby and can not do anything. Brayden gets upset when they do this, because all he wants to do is play cars with them. They did this to him for 30 minutes then I had to get on to them, I hate it when they do it to him. He just looks at me like mommy I just want to play!!!
Before babysitting I went to get the mail from p o box hoping to see Jordan and my engagement pictures in there. I open it and I see a brown padded envelope! I got all excited for it to be pictures for my mom from my Aunt, from their trip to Cali!! GRRRR!!!!
Well after babysitting I went and took some pictures of my friend Jessica, and her sisters. I had such a blast. I love taking pictures and wish I could be a photographer. I am really considering looking into it. Maybe work for a great photographer around here and learn from them. Anyone know anyone that needs extra help let me know!!! I am going to post some pictures tomorrow when I am not so sleepy! Goodnight everyone!


p.s. Remind me to never where my Doc Martens when walking all over, without buying some cushion. My feet really hurt!!!

Flower Ideas

Since I am doing my own flowers for the wedding I was looking on the net for ideas on designs and flowers to use. I am super excited to do it, but also nerves about doing it. Here's some flowers and ideas I like.

Unfortantly Ranculuses are out of season in August! I really like them, maybe I'll get them imported!I love the Dahlia's and they come in orange and purple!

These are the only bouquets with orange and purple that I can find!

Like this but with more flowers and less green.

I like this one but not so much!

Reception Halls

So Sunday I pretty much found out I either have to change reception halls or not do a sit down dinner, which in my family is not right. So I've been calling around and seeing if anything is available. The Knights of Columbus hall that I liked is booked, so there goes that one, then when I was driving home from the gym I drove right by another Knights of Columbus hall and never thought of this one. This one looks newly built and is kind of hidden from general public, So lets pray that this one is not booked. Hopefully I will get it and be able to decorate the hall the way I want to. I was wanting to put paper lanterns all over. So as of right now the reception location is up in the air. The only good thing is if I do decide to change locations I will receive a full refund from the location I have booked right now. Wich me luck!

For now

So after seeing so many people start a blog, I deceided why not, and is going to give it a shot. I'm not the best person wit words, so yea. and so you know I love my life. I first of all am a mother to two great boys, who I would not be who I am or where I am without them. I have a great Fiance! Sometimes life with us could be better but for now everything is good. Jordan and I are planning on getting married in August of '08. I am busy planning this wedding which everyone who does not help me plan it, thinks everything I do is wrong! So a little fusturated with that whole ordeal. I have some great friends that live around me but do not see a whole lot because of our schedules. I would love to see them more, but we all are so busy. This year Chase started Kindergarten, and now that I am home and not working I am able to help out a lot in the class room which I love. Brayden is still the stinker he always has been, beeating up Chase, being loveable whne in trouble, and being the cutie that he is! He loves to play with balls, any kind of balls. He always has a ball in his hand. This kid never wants toys when we go to the store he just wants balls. Jordan is so excited, to teach him to play soccer, he already has Brayden throwing the ball up and kicking it! So that is what is going on in my life right now. Will be posting wedding ideas and details here too, so keep an eye out.

Test, test

Just checking to make sure everything is working!!
