Hello, I'm doing a 30 day blog challenge found here. Link up if you'd like to join!
Day 12: Share your goals you would like to accomplish in the next year
1. Get a new job...check! Start that next Monday, yippee!
2. Finish up projects around the house (basement complete, paint laundry, paint office, paint main floor bath, paint master bath)...yikes!
3. Get new plants for the front yard
4. Get a fence for our backyard
5. Run in an organized race...will check this off this coming Saturday. Chris and I are signed up for a 5k
6. Meet more of our neighbors, Chris and I both want to do this!
7. Get more involved in volunteering opportunities (I think my new job will enable me to do this)
8. Start doing more meal planning. Tried this last week and we loved it!
9. Don't let minor things bother me so much (it's ok that Chris has 20 bottles of Gatorade scattered throughout the pantry...)
10. Continue on my weight loss goal/plan. I got super excited when I lost 25 lbs last winter/spring and then kind of let the whole thing go. I would like to pick up where I left off and lose some more weight :)
That's all I can think of for now.

30 Day Blog Challenge - Day 11
Hello, I'm doing a 30 day blog challenge found here. Link up if you'd like to join!
Day 9: Something you're afraid of
Well aside from all things creepy crawly, I would say my biggest fear is losing a loved one or dying myself. My husband, relatives, parents, brother, in-laws, friends, future children, nieces, nephews, pets are always on my mind! What would my life be like if I lost one of them. Not something I like to dwell on, but my crazy mind goes there. I especially don't like when my hubby has to work in bad (mainly winter) weather. I trust him driving (most of the time) but it's other drivers that I don't trust.
I will also think up situations when I could get in really bad car accident (mostly driving to and from work in crappy weather) and what I should do if the car next to me swerves into my lane. I also creep myself out at night when Chris is working late and I'm by myself. If I hear a noise in the house, I immediately think what I should do if there is a burglar in the house. And finally, if there is something (minor) wrong with me, I always think it's got to be the worse case scenario.
I know that I'm not the only person that dreams up this kind of stuff and when I think about random scenarios it just reminds me to be thankful for everything and everyone I have and how happy I am that they're still here with me :)

Day 9: Tell us about your special someone
I'm a very lucky lady to have snatched up my hubby, he is an incredible guy! We met November, 29 2005 through a mutual friend (aka Cupid). Pretty much inseparable ever since!

 |
| We haven't seen all of the last season, so we're trying to catch re-runs over the summer! |
 |
| This show is so hilarious and probably one of our favorites |
 |
| Little bit of mystery |
 |
| This show is pretty funny...can go a little far sometimes |
 |
| Still liking the show, some episodes last year weren't that intense... |
 |
| I only watch the OC - can't stand the other ones |
 |
| I still like my Sunday night desperate, I just can't kick the habit! |

Hey there, already behind on this....

Day 7: Tell us about your favorite vacation
My favorite vacation was when Chris and I went on a cruise together in February 2007. We had been dating just over a year and booked a cruise on Princess Cruise Line to go to the Eastern Caribbean. It was so much fun! I can't locate any of the pics from the cruise on our computer, but it was beautiful. We flew to Ft. Lauderdale and stayed the night in a hotel near the beach and then headed to board our cruise ship the next day. Lucky for me, Chris went a cruise the previous year with his mom, sister and brother-in-law (I was super jealous) so he kind of had an idea of what to expect and do on the cruise ship. We ate a ton, laid out in the sun, played mini golf (I had a few hole in ones), watched movies on the ship deck, went to the comedy club, ate, had lots of drinks (we brought a LOT of alcohol with us, we're thrifty), did some shopping, went on a catamaran, did scuba diving and ate some more.
I really hope that we can go on another cruise again. We upgraded to a balcony room and it was so worth the extra money. We didn't spend a ton of time out there, but we did go have a drink (or 3) out there each night.

Day 6: Favorite Movies
Well, I'm a sucker for romantic comedies, animated and some action movies. The movie really needs to grab me from the beginning and keep it going or I fall asleep (this drives Chris crazy)

| I've just always loved this movie - I like to watch it when I'm home and having a lazy day (mostly in the winter) |
 |
| Probably the movie that Chris and I quote the most...so funny, love the cast! |
 |
| All 3 movies always crack me up - they're so creative |
