WICKED

Ahhhhhhh! I can't even begin to say how absolutely fantabulous this show is. For anyone who hasn't seen it it is a must see. The actors and actresses were brilliant and had amazing pipes, I mean a-m-a-z-i-n-g. I wanted to jump on stage and sing with them. It is times like this I wish I could sing like that and I would be on a stage in a heart beat ... maybe in the next life! 

I couldn't help myself with the festive attire. It was way to much fun and what can I say? I love the music and now the show! I thought it was very fitting. I was out done by a young lady who had sprayed her hair green. 

We went with Rob's brother and his wife and had a great night.

It was great to be able to put the music to the show and now everything makes sense!

I LOVE WICKED!!!!

The Weekend

Rob and I had a wonderful weekend. We went to D.C. Friday night and stayed with Josh and Sandra. We woke up early Saturday morning and spent a few hours in the temple. It was wonderful to be in the temple with Rob. I am so grateful we are able to go and worship in the house of the Lord. 

After we left the temple, we rushed home to see Shelby off to prom. We got incredibly lucky and hit minimal traffic. Shelby looked beautiful and I was glad to be there. All of my sisters have always been there for me and my big occasions and I am glad I live close enough to do the same for them. 

After we saw the kids off we had a great date night with my parents. We went to dinner at Bakers Crust, where the tomato soup is to die for! We couldn't have a asked for a better day.

Dance party?

Dear Schylar,  

  

    I am in serious need of a dance party. You need to come home for just about an hour. You can manage that, right? The mirror just isn't cutting it. 

Can't wait till you come home. The lake is going to rock this year, dance party all week long. I miss you!

* I wish I could dance *

I am DONE !

   So I guess it is official ... I am a SENIOR! The semester came to a quick STOP. I thought my last exam was today and to my surprise (at 9 p.m. Monday night, having not even begun to study) I decided to look at my syllabus and realized the exam was the next morning at 9 a.m. I couldn't believe I did this. So needless to say I stayed up all night, had about two hours of sleep around 5 a.m., one coke, and a lot of prayers. 

   It is times like this I truly see God's tender mercies. After a sobbing plea to the Dean of Students to allow me to have more time, my teacher saying I could have more time, the Dean not approving it, I was given a few hour delay in starting the exam. It is amazing to me how I was able to stay calm and remember so much.  I was and am so grateful. 

   So I took the last exam, for 4 1/2 hours and could have used more time. But I am DONE. Done ...done. Okay so it hasn't completely sunk in yet but it will. Now it is time to look for a job, catch up on much needed sleep, and de-toxic my body with all of the horrible things I have been pumping in it to survive the end of the semester. I think Rob and I will be enjoying our fair share of salads in the coming week. So here's to summer, the beach that is calling my name, and my husband. It is time to relax!!

Mothers Day

We both have wonderful mothers. They have both been stay at home moms and taken care of us throughout our whole lives. Best of all they have always been their to support us in all of our endeavors. We know they love us and we love them. We look up to them and are grateful we were sent to them . Thank you Mom and Michelle!

My Everything

"I wanna be the wind that fills your sails & 

be the hand that lifts your veil 

be the moon that moves your tide 

the sun comin up in your eyes 

be the wheel that never rusts 

be the spark that lights you up 

all that you've been dreaming of & more 

so much more 

I wanna be your everything"

-Keith Urban 

This is our song! I love the words. Rob is all of these things and so much more. He is my everything.  I can't believe it has been four years since we were married. Time has flown. We have been through so much and it is amazing how we have grown. I love Rob so much. He is an amazing man and I am so grateful he chose me. 

We always try to do something on our anniversary that we did the day we got married. So this year we had dinner at the Seasons in Williamsburg, where we had our wedding day dinner. We even go to sit in the same room that we did four years ago. Dinner was great and the company unbeatable.

I love him so much!! 

Isn't he just so dang cute?

I would apologize for all the kissing pictures but it just shows how much we love each other. They are the best. 

I love you Rob!
