Question?

Which bear is best?
False! Black bear.

Haha! For those of you watch the office you might find that funny. Either way I'm smiling. :-)

I am also posing the question how long can I go without blogging? Apparently quite awhile! So I am sorry fellow readers for the fail of monumental proportions! (maybe a slight exaggeration)

Tonight I wanted to write about how I actually really enjoy my job when I'm working with a pleasant and caring surgeon. Who actually wants to take care of and has sympathy and empathy for their patient. It's refreshing to see and know that there are still good people and doctors in the world:)

Well that's a quick thought since I am going to bed. And a little Christmas tree photo

Happy Halloween!

I wish I had some fun pictures to put up, but I dont. I didnt even help my sisters carve pumpkins this year. I didnt get dressed up and I'm working tonight. I guess I'm okay with that, although I do very much enjoy all those things. I did wear my pumpkin shirt to youth group yesterday and my I heart vampires shirt today. So at least I'm being festive. I have been enjoying looking at all the cute pictures on facebook :-)


So whats new you might ask?

in less than 2 weeks Jared and I will be in Honduras!! I cant believe its almost here. I am not packed or even really thinking about it, since its 2 weeks away. I'm kind of last minute about things anyway, I wont make a list, but I will probably overpack and then go back through and then not have enough(that is what I did in January). But I am looking forward to it, and I even got a new pair of Chacos! They are so cute and I got them for 20 dollars with free shipping from Zappos. That makes me happy!

In other recent purchases, I bought a new de-humidifier which is not as exciting as new sandals but its working well and my basement doesnt smell gross anyway.

I got my hair colored last week, its now dark brown and I love it! I also got a cut and my hair has since decided that it will curl again which I am definitely a fan of:-)
And on friday I went to JC Penney and found an adorable winter hat that has ears and a cat face and it was 40% off so I bought it and I figured since I was going to buy that I better look around... and I got two super cute flannel kind of shirts which were 17 dollars instead of 36, which is quite nice and I just love them!! I cant wait to wear them, maybe tomorrow even! But back to the story, I went up and go those 3 said items and then after paying, the cashier tells that I got 20 dollars of rewards cash or something like that, so since I dont really go to Penney's all that often, I went back and got another hat, also fuzzy and has ears. Its really fun! So now I have a wide array of winter hats rangeing from the regular to a cat, another ear hat, an owl, a sock monkey, and a super fuzzy kind of lumberjackish one! So whenever I'm hating my hair which could easily be tomorrow I'll be looking really cute regardless of my unruly curls!

Well I suppose that is about it for now, I have tomorrow off of work. Maybe if you are lucky enough /slash/ if I remember I'll take some pictures of my recent purchases:-)

Gnome names

I recently acquired a roaming gnome:) I think he may start taking trips with me, maybe even to Honduras! So I'm wondering if any of you have any name suggestions for him...
Please leave them below:-)

Also here is our first picture he made it to my moms house from the store, hehe!

Flawless

Bookclub was really fun:-) and flawless, meaning i got everything done and everything made in time (there may have been a little stress about that). I'll post a better update on Tuesday with pictures of the cuteness.

For now I leave you with a picture of my tired pups after being outside all day and seeing the visitors at my house.

silent much?

Well apparently I am quite often here on my blog...but here I am again:-)

I always have really good intentions of blogging often then I get distracted or the really great and fun thing or things I wanted to blog about are mysteriously absent.

But right now, I should be reading my book club book A Discovery of Witches as I have still have some 200 pages to go but here I sit. Don't get me wrong its a very good book so far but at this moment I dont really feel like reading. Plus I should be reading because said book club is at meeting at my house. I am really excited about that, I get to make lots of halloween goodies and it will be fun. Now that also means that I will have to do some major cleaning because believe it or not, sometimes I live kind of piggish, as in Its not always the most clean it could be. And my German Shepherd seems to be shedding and shedding and shedding some more. So I'll have to vacuum and probably vacuum again before anyone arrives at my house. But as I said I'm looking forward to it, and even for the occasin I am going to get my living room rug cleaned! YES! I've been meaning to do that for quite some time but since I'm having people over I figured I better get it done.

On another note, the twins did turn 13! And their birthday party was so much fun! :-) the pig was super tasty and I made some cheesy potatoes, also super good. We had cake and of course a root beer keg! Along with a bouncy house too! You only turn 13 once:) it was fun! and the twins just loved it! I'll try to post some pictures soon. Maybe I'll do a whole post of pictures of my summer.

And on another note, its October and its supposed to be 80 degrees this weekend, I kind of like that:-) YES!!!

Where has September gone?

I cannot believe today is the already the 21st! Oh my! And that in just a few short days, it will be the twins 13th birthday! That makes me feel super old!

In less than 2 months I'll be in Honduras and then it will be Thanksgiving and then Christmas. Yikes! time flies!

Alright enough of the time going so fast, I have to go give breaks here at work. But I've made it through 2 hours so that means 10 hours to go. I'll hopefully write again before the big day of a pig roast and root beer keg (the twins birthday party). Enjoy your Wednesday everyone:-D

Blogging from my phone..

So I'm just testing this out on my phone:)

But I forgot to write yesterday about youth group on Sunday. We had 40 kids come which was pretty awesome! As last spring when I started volunteering there were maybe 15. And this Sunday I'm going to be speaking which makes me nervous already! Hehe:) but I am excited to see how God will show himself to me and how it goes.

I am also really excited because I got to catch up and have a nice long phone conversation with a great friend :-) and that makes my heart happy!

Tonight we went out to dinner with one of my friends from springhill and she works at a small christian school in downtown Kalamazoo and the twins are going to be helping her every Friday! :-) so I am excited for them!

Well that's my little phone blog update :-)

And a picture or two from my phone, me today learning how to operate the toolcat! Pretty fun! The twins with their twin pack of peanut butter. And one of me feeding the giraffes at the zoo which I think I look pretty funny in!
