**don't know how i stumbled here**

It is no secret this is my favorite movie and movie couple....
fast forward to 1:35

I really really do love them and i can't wait for this date!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I. Love. Him. It is ridiculous how AWESOME he is and how dang BEAUTIFUL he is!

Okay..i'm done...

"No one invited you in here. Now get out before I go Bonaduce on your ass!"

I am grateful for my friends.
Plain and simple.

Especially my friends in Massachusetts for making this such a great
experience for me and for helping me stay so damn happy!!!


Okay. I'm done. :D

"Wow, That is some serious Great Gatsby pinning."

*this is a double post--the thing i'm grateful for and a rant...*

I am grateful for my Mom and Dad for raising me to be an open-minded, nonjudgmental and caring person.
They taught me that people are different in every single aspect of life and it is our job (our meaning specifically our family--my interpretation) to love everyone not judge anyone.

I've changed my mind. No longer a rant more annoying observations...
--America and the world has witnessed and become a part of history but there are still people who think that it isn't that big of a deal and shouldn't be made into one. Yikes.
--people who say variations of this: "I'm scared for our country". You weren't already?? Obama (i believe) will change that, not make it worse.
--The naive view of many Mormons** (and people of other religions and just plain other ppl) that I have come across about (specifically) "being gay" and gay marriage. The view that it is a sin or wrong or whatever is not for us here on earth to decide. Our job here is to love everyone because (and yes. i really am saying this) "Jesus said love everyone and treat them kindly too." I would also like to throw out a scripture (oh yeah. i went there...) Morm 8:20 Everyone deserves to be loved and NO BODY should be denied the right to marry the person they love and who loves them back. **I realize this is a generalization. Not all LDS ppl believe that.**

Okay...so it turned into a little bit of a rant but still...
I'm done now.

I can't get "coming around the mountain" out of my mind. It's like one of those phrases like "drop it like its hot" that I really wish I'd never heard

I am grateful for my job.
I absolutely LOVE those two gorgeous little boys
Connor and Drew (see flickr for pix)
I'm grateful for the snuggles I get from Drew and
I'm grateful for every smile I get from Connor when he sees me for the first time each day.

I have the greatest job.

"I see we've entered the no humor zone."

I am grateful to live in a country where the seemingly impossible CAN become possible!

Land of Opportunity at its greatest. finally.

Change is on the way and I'm grateful for that.



President Barack Obama...
I've witnessed and voted for History!!!

"You cannot gather here."

I am grateful for my ability to vote for a person I believe will better our country.
I am grateful for the women who stood up for our right to vote in 1920 (and all the years leading up to that time.).
I am plainly grateful for my RIGHT to vote.
(which I did for the first time in my young life!)

Regardless of who you are voting for...this video is worth checking out. Seriously. I promise it's not Christina Aguilera Isaac...(or anybody famous...)

"At least she had a husband to kill."

Happy November everybody!!
To be perfectly cheesy...
November is the month to remember all the things you are thankful for...

I would like to try a new thing for myself (you are of course all welcome to do this as well) which is to write down something I am grateful for--obviously on my blog--each day for the month.


I am grateful for my happiness. It has taken me a long time to get this happy and I am grateful for it. :D
