Driving all Night

I am starting my drive to Richmond, Va tonight after my softball game! It is a 12 hour drive...yuck!! Why am I doing it? Well first cause I am crazy and secondly because my favorite person was invited to a wedding on Saturday night. Yes I know he should have known about this sooner that a week and a half prior so that I could have flow, but he is a boy (is that enough of an explanation?!). We were going to meet halfway this weekend anyway, but that would mean that I would not see him till late late late Friday night because he, like a normal person, has to work and he would have to leave early on Sunday morning. Now I can leave whenever I want:)

Anyways, so I am starting the drive tonight! I have been attempting to sleep all day which is not something I am good at, but I would say I have been somewhat successful. If I had really been successful I would not be writing to you, I would be asleep instead...oh well! So both mom and B do not want me to drive through the night...they are both crossing their fingers that I will stop after a couple of hours and get a hotel and sleep till morning. I have assured both of them that I will stop if I feel it is necessary; but I did buy one of those energy shots at Target the other day so will see how far I get :)

And to add to this my ipod nano is broken so I will be hitting the scan button constantly I am sure. Oh well...all to dance at a wedding with my favorite dance partner! :)

Love you Margo and Brian...congratulations on baby James Owen! Can't wait to meet him!

ADveNTUrE!!

Okay everyone, I am going on a new adventure!! I am planning on moving in with my friends in Blacksburg, VA! They live closer to my cowboy then the STL. Besides you can see horses from their house and they have three dogs, all of who I love. What more could I want...oh and they can put up with me:)

The truth is, they have been asking me to move in with them since they moved back to Blacksburg, VA from New York last summer! I feel blessed to have friends like this....I almost moved in a while ago...but I felt the need to resist at the time :) I was confused at that time...lets just say I had recently moved back to the STL, was trying to make real estate work, and had just come across someone special in my life. I was lost! But, you all will be surprised by the proposal I passed up. So Kris said, if I moved in with him and April in the next three months he would become a vegetarian for a year!!! I know can you believe I didn't jump on that...whoops!:) I must have been out of my mind....lol!

Anyways, I am planning on moving in with them at the end of May and staying for about a month. When the month is up I will reassess the situation and determine where to go from there... This way I will be closer to my sexy man and I will get to see him on a more real life basis. Oh and I will always be looking for good jobs!

My two dogs will come with me...with their combined weight of 15lbs and we will live with their three dogs whose combined weight is probably closer to 300lbs. Hahaha....it will be great!:) Maybe they will all sleep with me!

When else in your life can you do this!! :)

Hendrix College Reunion Weekend

Over the weekend, Christina and I drove down to Little Rock so we could attend alumni weekend and partake in our 5 year reunion. We stayed with Julie and Steve, who are always the best of hosts.

I brought the little Lady Coco with me. I left Chiqui at home because Maggie, Julie and Steve's dog, and her do not get along. Well this time, Maggie put Lady Coco in her place....she turned her over and tackled her...luckily other people were worried and pulled Maggie off of Coco. We don't really know what the trigger was, but they were fine the rest of the weekend. And Lady didn't bark....thanks Maggie!!! (normally she barks all the time!)

We went to dinner at ZAZA's in Little Rock...it is owned by a Hendrix alumni, if you guys haven't eaten there try it!! Then we went to the Arkansas Travelers game with Starnz and her man...they are in LOVE! It was great we won!

Saturday we went to visit our amazing school....and yes it is still great! Even better than when we went---oh memories! and all those things we can't remember ;). That night we attended the reunion...lots of fun!! Margo we missed you...but Molly did a good stand in!! People were reminded, that yes, we still are crazy. Julie took care if us....thanks Julie...just cause you drove us does not mean you are old!!We returned to the STL on Sunday where we were reminded how much fun the 6 hour drive is...ugh!! Christina and I managed to fill the time with craziness... From our ride we have come up with a challenge for all of you...at some point this week use the term Daddy inappropriately!! Do it!

Dream house...

Okay, so I have decided what I want in my dream house....I want it to be cozy and calming. Filled with love, laughter, and spontaneous dancing!! I also want the pitter patter of all my tinnies following me on the wide planked wood floors.

I want a porch that I can sit on and soak up the sun or watch the rain. I wanted rescued chickens in my yard...I love chickens (alive of course!!). So that I can watch them live out their lives in happiness. And I want a pond...one that mimics the turtle pond at my Alma Mater, Hendrix College!! I was there over the weekend and I saw all the tadpoles in the turtle pond....I played with them of course....but I had to resist taking some home in a bottle to watch them grow into frogs. I used to love to do this as a kid!!! Tadpoles where the only reason I began playing golf as a kid....I wanted an excuse to catch tadpoles in the water :)..........You guys do all know that I am crazy and always have been!!!

Anyways back to my dream house with dancing, chickens, a pond, furry critters, and a porch...I also would like a special person to fill my house with love. But I would prefer this person to be strong and good looking so that I could ask them to fix things for me without their shirt of course...hahaha. Have I found this person already....time will tell! But if I have, I feel blessed!

For all of you who were following and I had no idea...

Here I am writing for you!! Now you can keep up with my exciting life...:). I spent this past week traveling from the STL to Little Rock, AR to Murray, KY. I spent time in Little Rock celebrating the pregnancy of one of my favorite people. She looked beautiful....pregnancy is perfect on her!! I visited with the special dog I found for her many years ago, Chico....he's a keeper. Too bad they live so far away!

After that, I traveled to Murray, KY to spend time with my most favorite person! He's a keeper also! If you have never been to Kentucky you should, at least stop there once in your life....its beautiful!! Everything is green and there is land as far as the eye can see. AND WATER...one of the loves of my life! Critters everywhere!!:) Luckily I didn't find any I could take home with me:) I watched Duke win the NCAA championship very sweet! I spent a whole lot of time doing nothing and reminding myself that my golf game needs improvement!!

I am back in the STL, not very happy about it, as I watched my favorite drive away to Virgina and I had to turn in the opposite direction. But the happiness of spending time together is worth the pain of being apart.....although I could do without it;).

Anyways, I think that is it for now. Love you all, miss you!!
