Randomness

I thought it would be fun to start the week off with randomness. Since most of my Mondays start off randomly and set the mode for the rest of my crazy week, here are some random facts about me:

I am addicted to Diet Coke and will probably die at an early age from drinking it excessively since I was in junior high.
Listening to lack of good grammar while in professional/serious settings makes me cringe.
I do not and never have appreciated my naturally curly hair.
I am addicted to food. I am a foody. I live to eat and wish I ate to live.
I do not have a favorite color. It used to be magenta, but I grew out of that.
My husband was my first serious relationship and I love that God saved my heart just for him.
I hate laundry with a passion. I hate washing it, drying it, folding it and putting it away. When my ship comes in, I will have a full-time laundry lady who lives in my laundry room and never comes out except to put the clothes away.
Blake Shelton once told me I should marry him because we had the same hair and would have pretty kids. I am so glad I declined the offer.
I never win anything and have made winning something in 2009 a personal goal of mine.
My favorite song to belt out/ sing with my sister is “Brandy”. When I hear it I always call her.
We (Rand & me) are obsessed with Dallas (the show) and are now working our way through the 9th and 10th season.
I am selective about many things in life. Some call it snotty, I call it selective because I am nice about.
After 6 bridal showers, 6 years ago, I still remember who gave me what. It is amazing, really.
People often mistake my last name for a middle name and then stare at me waiting for me to give them a Jones or a Smith. It is quite annoying.
I was saved when I was 9 years old. I thank God for giving me parents who raised me in a Godly home and taught me about Jesus, without reservation.

Right on, Ab ! There are no reservations about Jesus. Your Mom and I tried our best to make sure you and Julie Bell knew all about him and his majesty. Your Mom deserves much of the credit for that but I did haved something to do with it. Charles and Wilma and Joe and Betty made sure Kathy and I were gounded in the faith so we could pass it on to our offspring. I know the two of you will do the same.

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good party has to have go

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu

He's home!

I know you didn't know my dear husband was out of town. I decided not to post such information. I get scared enough as it is, I sure didn't want to advertise the information. Yes, you read correctly, I get scared. Before we had children, and well, even after Samuel was born, I would stay with a friend of mine when Stephen was gone overnight. When we moved from that town I didn't have anyone to stay with, so I would just sit up and watch tv all night. Fear kept me awake. Isn't that silly? Well, it didn't seem so at the time, but when I look back on it now it seems silly. That is until I have to be without a manly-man in the house. I'm telling you what, I hear every noise, sound, creak, croak. It's awful. Sunday night (the first night) while I was lying AWAKE in my bed I was praying and telling God that I knew He didn't want me to be fearful and that I knew there were many verses in the Bible that told of His being with me at nighttime . I just couldn'
