Thankful Thursday

Today I'm thankful for
- Peanut butter M&M's...they are melt in my mouth delicious and as I sit here eating a bag of them and contemplating my trip to the gym that is to take place in a few hours I can't help but wonder how so much peanut buttery goodness is packed into such a tiny little package.
- The babies Jake and I will have...I like to think about them and the sweet names that we will name them...doesn't every girl do that?
- Self discovery...I've just recently discovered that I love white cheddar popcorn and Dole Orange Peach Mango juice...I seem to be thankful for a lot of food this week.
- that my hair is now long enough to pull it all to one side and braid it
- That Jake surprised me by showing up to my basketball practice tonight...i'm married to quiet the trickster.

What are you thankful for?

Tuesday's Tunes...on Wednesday

Yesterday was so busy, I hardly had time to sit down and prop my feet up and snuggle Jake.

Speaking of Jake, every month on the 8th he brings home flowers for me...You see we got married on the 8th of October...before that, be brought me flowers every month on the 2nd because we started dating on the 2nd of some month long ago.  It's really so sweet to see him come in holding flowers out towards me, so proud of himself that he remembered and that they make me so happy.

You know what else makes me happy? Holding a baby...they are so cute and my new friend Jillian has one of the cutest babies ever.  Last night I went to Enrichment, Jillian was presenting for part of the time and, so I got hold this baby for a little while.  It's so nice to have a new friend in our ward.  They are the sweetest little family and I hope to be as cute of a little mama as Jillian is.

You know what I did after Enrichment?  I met a couple of horny dirt bags...at least, that's what Jake called them.  Enrichment lasted a little longer than I thought it was going to and as I was talking to Jake on the way home he said that he would love nothing more than for me to bring home a stuffed crust pizza.  Seeing as he brought me flowers and all earlier that day how could I say no?  So off I went to the Pizza Hut to pick up our romantic dinner and I pull of to the window and this is the conversation that followed

Horny Dirt bag: (looks me up and down...you know the look) Hey, how YOU doing?
Me: I'm good...do you have an order for Watson ready?
Horny Dirtbag: I sure do, it'll be $12.48...(leans down on to the window) so what bring you to Pizza Hut tonight?
Me: umm, my order.
Horny Dirtbag: Do you come here a lot?
Me: Only when it's what my husband wants for dinner.
Horny dirtbag:  Ohh, what's your husband up to tonight?
Me: He's at home. Did you say my order was ready?
Horny dirtbag: Let me go check again. Now that i'm thinking about it, I don't think that it is.
Me: ok.
Horny Dirt bag: It's almost ready, just another minute, they'll bring it to you when it's done...you come back real soon Carly (as he read my name off of his copy of my receipt.

This was all obnoxious, funny, flattering and ridiculous at the same time.  I had a friend on the phone the whole time and she thought it was the funniest thing she had heard all day while it was happening, but it's nice to know that the Pizza Hut guys think that I've still got it.

Once I finally made it home to spend some quality time with my hubs it was 9 o' clock.  We ate our pizza and watched Modern Family, and laughed and laughed and laughed at that show.  

So there it is, my long day yesterday...exciting right?  So for all of those that were looking forward to Tuesday's Tunes, here is the song that I chose yesterday but didn't have time to write about...it's the new Rascal Flatts song, and I thought it was fitting for the day since Jake and I have not been married for four months.


P.S. Can I just say how smokin' hot Joe Don is?  He has a terrible name, but good grief, isn't he nice to look at?

Baby??

Are there any other
newly married
people out there
that are asked EVERY DAY
when they are going to have a
BABY??

This simple question makes me want to have a baby very soon and also wait for as long as possible just to see how long people will continue to ask...

P.S. I don't mind being asked this question, I just find it very entertaining and sometimes a bit awkward.

Here's to the bright New Year, and a fond farewell to the old...

2010 has definitely been a life changing year, as I've reflected back over the past 12 months it is hard to believe how much has changed in such a short amount of time.  In the spirit of New Year's Eve here are some of my favorite moments from the past year: 

JANUARY: Here's to the baby that has changed the lives of everyone in my family for the better. His coming in the world started our year off right. Watching him grow has definitely been one of the highlights of our year. Read about his birth here.

Jake and I also got our first child...before we were married or even engaged (SHHH!) and my how he's grown. We got him when he was a little baby that I could hold like one and now he's a 65 pound toddler dog and we love him so much!

MARCH: Jake gave me some bling and asked me to marry him (read about that here). I asked him if he was serious and then said YES.


MAY: Engagement pictures! My best friend from high school took these for us and she did a fantastic job if I do say so myself!


JUNE: ROAD TRIP! We made our way up to NYC and Boston!






AND...
Our first wedding shower!




  JULY: Trip to Washington, D.C. for Justin and Ashley's wedding.
Changing of the Guard Ceremony


and a trip to the beach with my family...




September: Temple!






 OCTOBER: Love and Marriage...More pics here.






 Cruise...







I was a slacker and didn't take pictures during Thanksgiving or Christmas, I was a little busy soaking up time of relaxation and family, but rest assured they are always on the list of best moments of this year.

I am looking so forward to this upcoming year...who knows what it may bring...another puppy? a baby (cough cough...just kidding!)? finishing painting my house...graduating!!!  Anyway, I look forward to sharing it with all of you!  

Happy New Year!!!
