packed up.

All packed and no where to go.

Until tomorrow.

Tomorrow, I'll be in O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A.... Oklahooooommmaaa STATE!

(for those Cowboy fans, I hope you sang along)

I'll be leaving Marshall in Philly for a few days as he finishes his finals, but then we will be reunited in OKLAHOMA!

I'm excited. There's just something about that state that I like!

kisses.

Stratton turns 3!

I know I'm not alone when I say that the holiday season automatically makes people crazy and forgetful.

Yesterday I forgot hard.

I knew it was the 10th, but I didn't KNOW it was the 10th, ya know?

 I missed this cute boys birthday.

Happy Birthday Stratton!

 3 years old!! And soo funny. I could listen to him talk all day long!

I hope you can forgive your aunt.

If everyone I knew had a Facebook account, and if I actually remembered to look on the right side of my Facebook page to see who had a birthday, I would never be that girl that sends the belated wishes....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STRAT!!! I LOVE YOU!!!

kisses.

Update on Baby Pryce

A lot of people have been asking me when my brother and sis-in-law are going to be able to go get Baby Pryce in Korea.... well....

They still don't know. 

But they did get new pictures of Pryce!

Go check them out on their blog HERE

Seriously, how cute is he? I just want to eat him up!

I want him to get here now!!!

kisses.

38 years!!

Today is my parent's anniversary. 

38 years today. 

I sent them a group text this morning. And this is how it went..

me: Happy Anniversary you 2 lovebirds. I hope you get to do it today.

dad: me too

I'm still waiting for my mom to reply... maybe they are doing it.

I love you both so much and am so glad God brought you crazy kids together.

Thank you for being such a great example to us. I am lucky to be your daughter.

Kisses.

Strip Football. Big 12 Champs.

If you follow me on twitter then you might have read about the little game Marshall and I were playing. We had bets in place, but they somehow all ended up with Marshall cooking for the next 2 weeks, win or lose. But seeing as he has finals for the next 2 weeks, I couldn't do that. So we settled on something else.

Strip Touchdown Football.

Now, this only worked because #1 We are married. #2 We were alone. #3 We are newlyweds :)

But it might just be our regular house divided bedlam tradition.

It worked like this. 

Everytime the Sooners scored (extra point not included) I had to lose an article of clothing. Everytime the Cowboys scored, Marshall lost one.

I'm pretty sure Marshall knew that the Cowboys would dominate the scoreboard because he was layered. Our house is cold. 

I lost my orange socks. 

That is all.

So proud of my cowboys. So proud to be able to call Oklahoma State University my alma mater. 

And now, we wait in anticipation to see if if those idiot voters pick Alabama to play LSU for the National Championship or if OK State is going to have its try. But if you pick wrong, Boone Pickens is coming after you BCS jokesters.

“If we don’t get in the BCS (championship game), I’m not kidding you, if I have the power to do it, I’m going to have an investigation,” - T. Boone Pickens

#GOPOKES

Today is a big day. It's a HUGE day.

Today is Bedlam. And not just any Bedlam game. THE Bedlam game. Maybe the biggest game OSU has ever played. Okay, the biggest game I can remember OSU ever playing, and I've lived in Stillwater since I was 6. 

It's huge.

Besides the obvious reasons why it's a big game tonight, it's also a big game because I am married to one of those... those sooner fans.

 And we have to win. 

Household bets have been made. The stakes are high.

But I will say in my husband's defense he is a way better Cowboy fan than I am a Sooner fan. I might have even heard him say "the Cowboys deserve to win this year". You will never, ever, never hear me say such words about his team. He is a much better than me. I'm trying to be nicer though.

And for the sake of our marriage, and all the other house divided couples... I hope it's not another repeat of last year.

I wish we were in Stillwater right now.

*All photos were taken during our engagement session with Amanda Watson last December.  She rocks.

decorating

I cannot wait until I have a home, our home, that we can decorate for Christmas and actually make it our own.

This is a year of learning to be patient. In all things.

p.s. Next year at this time we will be living in Miami. And 3 different cities before that.

Again, I cannot wait until we have a home.

kisses.
