Music Monday

Here is the song that inspired me for the tagline on my blog :)

Jeff-fa-fa Dun-Ham!!

Jeff Dunham is coming to the Assembly Hall in March and my family and I enjoy watching the show. He even has his very own show now on Comedy Central that is on every Thursday night. I enjoy it very much. But my family is going to try to get tickets to go see him.

Hopefully I might even get to enjoy the show with Emmett, I will have to wait and see!

I'm sure it will be an awesome show!!

I hope everyone is having a good weekend!!

A Thousand Words Thursday

Wordless Wednesday

Can't wait to fall back!!

Here are some pictures that Kayla and I took yesterday when Dad was raking up the leaves . . .

Gotta love Fall!! HAPPY MONDAY!!

A New Month and A New Design!!

Wow!! It's officially November and Daylight Savings Ends!!

I am sad that it will be getting dark at 5:00 p.m. and it will be light by the time that I get up in the morning.

But I am not sad about my new blog design. Thanks to Leslie Lambert for my new blgo design. Even though she had the swine flu, she still was very good to work with and changed things when I wanted them changed. She also has very affordable prices and packages.

Halloween was awesome!!

First of all, I started ym day by going to work and helping out with the Halloween parade and party. It was very successful!!

Then I headed home to meet up with my family to go to the Illini Game. It was such a blast! Here are a few of my favorite pictures. These are from my camera on my phone so they aren't the best. The batteries on my camera died before the game even started!!

We left the game half way through the 3rd quarter and we were losing and the score was 13-7. But as soon as we left, they scored another touchdown and they kept going and ended up winning the game 31-13. I keep telling mom that it was because we left the game early.

After going home to change clothes, I headed over to Emmett's to go with him to celebrate his cousin's birthday. I had a lot of fun, and luckily no tricks, just treats on Halloween!

So . . . What does everyone think of my new design???

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Happy Halloween!

Everyone should know by now that my favorite Disney character is Tigger, so I thought that this picture was very cute!

I am not doing that much for Halloween except for going to work. We are having our Halloween parade and party there, should be exciting.

After work, my dad's office gets Illinois Football tickets and nobody wanted this weekend's game tickets so he got all six, so Mom, Dad, Kayla, Donna, Kyle and I are going to the game against Michigan State.

Be sure to look back for pics from the game!!

After the game, I am going to Emmett's cousin's for a Birthday party. I think it is so cool to have your birthday on Halloween, it would be spooktacular!!! hahaha! I crack myself up sometimes!!

So again . . .

Happy Halloween!

My favorite childhood Halloween Costumes

Halloween night is tomorrow . . . .

I thought that I would share some of my favorite Halloween costumes that I was either forced to be or wanted to be . . .

I was Baby Bop one year . . .

(Mom dressed me as this . . .)

Kindergarten

Tigger - My favorite!!!

Illinois Dude - Another favorite!!

I hope everyone has a safe and good Halloween!!

A Thousand Words Thursday

Kayla, Dad, and I went to Pards, a Western shop and we were looking at boots because my sister wants a pair really bad, so while we were playing around and trying things on, I came across this George Strait cutout, and as all of you know by looking at my blog, I listen to country music a lot so I had to have my picture taken with him. Even though he is ancient, he is still pretty good looking! =)

My Country Playlist

As many of you know, I listen to country music A LOT!!! So I thought I would share with everyone, songs that mean a lot to me and some even relate to my life (plus they are catchy so you might want to listen to them anyways).

**WARNING** A Lot of Songs relates to Emmett and I =)

1.) "Bless the Broken Road" - Rascal Flatts
Even though I have only had one boyfriend, I still think that this song relatesto my relationship with Emmett. I think that I traveled on the right road and it led me straight to him!! Plus, this has to be my ultimate favorite country song!!!

2.) "Right Where I Want to Be" - Gary Allan
Whenever I hear this song, it reminds me of how close I am to Emmett and I am always happy when I get to hang out and snuggle with him.

3.) "Big Green Tractor" - Jason Aldean
This song reminds me of late night tractor rides with Emmett during the Fall.

4.) "I'm Alright" - Jo Dee Messina
I always listen to this song when I am in a good mood. Something about this song makes me happy inside.

5.) "Wide Open Spaces" - Dixie Chicks
Sometimes I need my space and don't feel like being around a lot of people, so this song reminds me of myself when I am feeling this way.

6.) "Then" - Brad Paisley
I look back at when Emmett and I first started dating. We didn't know very much about each other and now I look at us now, we have come so far.

7.) "Live Like You Were Dying" - Tim McGraw
I always try to live life to the fullest because you never know where you will be from day to day.

8.) "Life's a Dance" - John Michael Montgomery
I just love the lyrics to this song and the message it puts out.

9.) "This Kiss" - Faith Hill
This was my first ever favorite country song. I think this was the first song I could sing all the words right. So it is definitly one of my favs!!

10.) "Butterfly, Fly Away"- Miley Cyrus & Billy Ray Cyrus
I love this song because it talks about a parent taking care of thier child and it just reminds me of how my mom is always there for me and I don't know what I would do without her =)

So here is my playlist. What is on yours??
