SNOW!

DateFriday, February 12, 2010 at 9:57AM

Call me crazy, but I've never made a snowman before until yesterday!

If you have been watching the news, then you would know that a lot of places have been hit with massive amounts of snow in the past few days - Dallas was one of them! It was SO much fun yesterday playing in the snow. This is a luxury that I never had growing up in Houston. You NEVER have snow and if you do it never sticks - especially this much!

Traveling to work was surreal, as everything looked like a postcard. Snow fell hard all night on Wednesday, all day yesterday and into the night tonight. It is crazy how the snow is still outside on our lawn! It's beautiful! :) I love it.

So as I mentioned before, it was my first time to make a snowman. Here he is:

    

His eyes, nose, smile and buttons are made out of cough drops! ha! That's all we had! :) We got creative. My husband and I did it together. I don't know if he's still alive in our front yard, but it was SO much fun making him! :)

Anyways, I had to share! Hope you enjoy your weekend!

A Journey | Personal

DateFriday, February 5, 2010 at 1:53PM

I haven't mentioned this at all on this blog, but most of you know that my husband, Josh, and I are going overseas on a three month trip. I’m not going to say on this site where we are exactly yet, but during that time, I hope to post pictures on here of our journey. If you do know where we’re headed, please don’t mention anything yet.

During this trip, I hope to unveil a new side on my photography. I have tons of ideas of what it might be like – I even had a dream about the place we’re going to last night!

I’m unsure how often I will post pictures, but I hope to do so as often as I can. We plan on leaving March 1st and will return June 1st.

So for all of you who were wanting pictures during the months of March to June 1st, I’m so sorry, but I won’t be here. I can, however, do a shoot afterwards! :)

I hope that you will continue to follow me on this blog as I see new things and my eyes are opened to a world other than America. It’s going to be interesting!

Thanks for reading – I have some more posts to put up before I leave; like a ridiculously cute family, a couple of Seniors and more! Be looking as you don’t want to miss these!

I’d love to hear your comments below!

Have a great weekend!

Horseshoes | Another Random Post..

DateMonday, February 1, 2010 at 8:54PM

This is another random post (as the one before it was), but I like posting pictures from my regular life that most people don't get to see. While I have tons of editing to do (folks, it's A LOT!), I'm taking a short break to share with you random events in my life.

Like the game of Horseshoes.

  

I don't know about you, but whenever I was a kid, I hated playing this game. I thought it was the most boring game on the planet. I now have a different opinion! :)

When we went on our trip this past June (in 2009) to Arizona for a couple of weeks, when we were staying at a 'retreat' like center, they had a horseshoe game set up and people would go and play during our breaks. Often times, Josh and I would play against each other. I rarely won, but WOW, it was so much fun! I really enjoyed it.

So when even though you might not think you like a game, try it again. You never know if you will look at it differently or change your mind!

That's it for today. :) Thanks for listening to my rambling.

Anyone else like this game? :)

My Favorite Things | GAMES!

DateFriday, January 29, 2010 at 8:17AM

One of my favorite things to do is play games - not just any games, but specifically board games.

One game in particular that we got for Christmas was called, "Killer Bunnies." 

It's not your typical game. There are tons of rules upfront, but once you get them down it is SO much fun. Some friends introduced us to the game last year and we loved it so much that we decided to ask to receive it for Christmas.  

And then we got my mom hooked! :) 

So, I think everytime we go now, we will be play Killer Bunnies together. It's just too fun NOT to play!! 

So, if you are ever in the mood to splurge and just get a great game, get this one! It is loads of fun! :)

 

Happy Friday! Have a GREAT weekend!

Anniversary

DateWednesday, January 13, 2010 at 8:00AM

   

So today is our third Anniversary as Mr. and Mrs. Truckey!! I can't believe it. 

Three years passed by so quickly. It makes me wonder how fast the rest of the time will fly.

Josh and I technically have been together for 8 years, as we dated all through high school and through college. We have definitely had our hard times already, and I'm sure there are more to come. I'm sure there are many more happy times, too.

All I do know, is that I would never want to do life with any other person, other than my husband, Josh. He is the most wonderful man I have ever met. He always inspires me to love God more and to love others more, too. His attitude and humor makes me smile every time. His little quirks drive me crazy, but, I still love him so much and would never want anyone different.

  

I love you hun hun (aka Josh)! :)
