How do you feel about this Statement:
Your husband should be your hero.
Cassandra, Whitney and I were having a talk at work today and it's a conversation we had.

My thoughts.
I'm tired of wondering. We were so close then poof. Now you're busy. No calls. No emails. 12 minutes. Our calls used to always be 12 minutes. I always laughed about it. Our text frequent. Now 0. None. There's time for others but evidently not our friendship. I'd just like to know why. We're both busy. What else am I supposed to do?
And I'm entitled to them.

5 Great Days....
I just had 5 great days of no work! It was awesome.
Wednesday was my school day, so lot of homework until I took my 4:00 nap. I figured I could lay down until 5:00 (I leave at 5:15 for school because class starts at 6:00) I woke up at 5:54 PM....And FREAKED out.. I have never moved that quick in my life. I made it to class by 6:20 and as I'm walking in all the other students were walking out! Evidently I have a cool professor and he gave us the option of turning in our assignments or giving them as a presentation. (Most people chose to just turn them in and leave) A few people stayed to give theirs so I got to take my quiz while they gave theirs.
Thursday came and went quickly. I went to the grocery and got things done around the house. Then Nataleigh came over so we could scrapbook!
Friday was more doing laundry and just relaxing. Then My mom came and we went to Flower Factory then went to Josh's Softball game.
Saturday we left early for the Scrap Pink crop at Cord. We Cropped all day from 10am - midnight. It was so awesome to have the entire day. I completed a few pages of my wedding book and then put finishing touches on a few that needed finished. Then I started a mini acrylic book for my brother and Megan... if I end up giving it to them...It's way cute! I'll post some photos :)
Today I got to sleep in a little and then I did a photo shoot for a friend and their family. Now Josh and I are hanging out watching Desperate Housewives.
Now it's back to work tomorrow......

A Few Weeks Back...
The other night my mom asked me where the blog was about The Wild's....she was suprised because she says I never miss anything...which is true :)
We got there at like 10:40ish. They take you on an old school bus from the parking lot to the little bus pickup-bathroom-ticket-area. When we got to the ticket place we figured out that the tickets I bought (Discount deals from WCOL) were for the closed bus...but we wanted the Open Aired bus. We thought it would be a much better expierence to be able to see the animals with out a window in our way. So we upgraded our tickets. Rented some binoculars. Went Potty. And waited for the bus. We were lucky, it was only us + 5 other people on the entire bus.
(This was her first time on a School bus!)
It was our drivers last day...so she had fun.
The entire trip was about 2.5-3 hours. It was very bumpy. But it was awesome. I'm not even going to try to spell the names of the animals we saw...I'll just give you their "Street name" 
These are similar to Donkey's...You know the donkey from Shrek...this is what he was. Our Driver said they're very playful like Donkey was in the movie.
These are the Wild Horses
A few times throughout the trip you stop and get off the bus for like 25-30 minutes. Our first stop, we walked down to this dock...There are a bunch of Catfish (Yuck!) And there were two swan. Logann Fed them. I guess the food is really for the Catfish, but the swan thought it was for her, she kept sniping at the catfish...it was funny. 
These are the girls...the boys were too far away I couldn't get a good photo of them!
Please note camels head in this photo (the one on the ground) hahaha He was kickin back...
But I guess I missed that...and I missed posting about Logann's Birthday Party!
A few weekends ago on a Saturday we traveled out to Zanesville to go to The Wild's.. we were a little worried about the weather because the whole week it had been real muggy and rainy, but we did it anyway. (Note: We = Me, mom, Logann & Melissa)

Another busy weekend....
This weekend was a little crazy! I felt like it was long and so fast at the same time.
Friday I left work at noon so I could come home and finish getting the house ready for all the girls to come over to scrapbook. I was so glad I did too because I had so much to do! There ended up being 9 of us (me, my mom, Melissa, Holli, Amy, Nataleigh, Nataleigh's mom, Ally, and Missy) scrapbooking and then Cindy came over to socialize for a little while.
It was nice to be able to see everyone and scrapbook...even though I didn't get much done! Imagine that! We had a good time though and I guess I need to plan another one....oh and I need a larger basement!
Saturday we (Me, mom, Melissa and dad) started the morning off going to the Backwoods Fest
It's kind of a craft show..but I don't think that's a good description of it. Go to the website! I could spend so much money there, but I didn't this year. I was a good girl. I didn't buy anything! (Thanks to the $300 we had to sink into Josh's car) I still had fun though. Devon and Megan met us there later. Josh and Kevin went to the OSU game. Lucky Ducks.
When we left there Megan wanted to go to BabiesRUs..our new favorite store. They did some updating to their registry and decided on a stroller and car seat. I made some mental notes of my own. Then I left there at like 5:15 only to race home and change my clothes. Ted (one of our wonderful maintenence men from work) turned 50 this week and was having a party at his home in Delaware. We decided to carpool w/ Nataleigh and Dave to save some gas! We picked up Nataleigh and then drove up to Dave's work to pick him up...and then we followed the GPS to Teds...hmm that's another post itself! :)
Nataleigh was our little girl scout. She brough our fire back to life and then kept it burning. We all told her she deserved a patch! (And then I took it away because she deleted the photo of her and Leah)
After Ted's house we went to Arlington Cafe where we met some of Nataleigh and Dave's friends for Erick's (one of their friends) birthday. Nataleigh and I got to drink.
Then today..I had to work. And then come home and do homework..the typical Sunday routine.
And if you just read this entire post...give yourself a pat on the back :)

Ike
That one name now means so much to so many people.
This morning at work I was going through some photos Yahoo had posted, with an article about all of the aftermath of Hurricane Ike. It's amazing what mother nature can do.
This photo is one that caught my eye the most...
If they told you that was coming towards your home, and you needed to leave...your home. What would you do? It's Scary to think about! My heart breaks for those people who lost their home, their things, and some of them...their loved ones. I know they're just things, but still they're your things and your home!
Prayers to everyone who has been effected by Hurricane Ike. Now the clean up begins...and the wind and storms come our way!

9.11.08
It's been 7 years....
I still remember that day like it was yesterday. I was a sophomore...sitting in History Class..we had just finished a test and were all sitting there waiting for the bell and the assistant principal came just inside the door and said "A plane just hit the one of the Trade Towers." They brought a TV into the room and we all watched..........the whole school was watching.........the entire state...entire country....in silence.
Take a moment today to remember those who lost their lives that day & Say a prayer for all of the families who lost someone close to them.
On a brighter note... Today is also my Grandpas Birthday! Happy Birthday Papaw...and it's Melissa's Birthday too! I hope you both have a great day :) Do something you love today!

An Average Week!
Today I'm leavin work a little early to get a few things done! I have 2 big scrapbook event/days coming up that I need to get prepared for, so I'm trying to plan my work in advance.
Tomorrow I work, and then work again at VS until close! A double makes for a long day...but it's worth it for 1-2 days a week there, and the extra play money.
Wednesday is my day off from work, We're switching our cable back to Time Warner so they're scheduled to be there between 8:30 and noon...which means I'll get up at 8:00 to be ready, and they'll arrive at noon. But I'm not complaining, because I'm done paying way to much $ for AT & T. Then I'll be doing homework during the day, until I leave for class @ 5:15 PM. (15 minutes after Josh gets home)
Thursday, I work again, and then on the way home I have to stop at Cord to have a friend check mom's camera.....then home to have dinner with my husband and relax..probably watch some Law & Order SVU's.
Friday, I work again (imagine that) and then I'm on call at VS...so I'll spend the entire morning/lunch hour hoping they're not going to use me, then call at 3:00pm for them to probably say "Yes, we'd love to have you!" But if they say no...I'm going to talk Josh into a movie!
Saturday is my day off...woo hoo! We're going to The Wilds. It's going to be a 7 girls + 2 boys day..they don't know what they're getting themselves into. :) It should be fun. The weather has been perfect so lets hope it stays that way & that the animals are active. I can't wait to see the kids faces!
And Sunday it's work again and then homework that night!

grrrr blogger.
The other night I tried to change my background...
and it went back to the old one I had...that I don't like. And now I can't get it to change to anything different at all.
Please bare with me while I get very mad at blogger!

SHE'S FIVE!
Logann is FIVE TODAY!
EEK.
I can't even believe it's been five years. It seems like last week I was going to Melissa's baby shower...then visiting her in the hospital...then spending 4 days a week with her. Now, she's in Kindergarden. And I see her once a month!
I called her today to tell her happy birthday and she told me what presents she got, and where she went to dinner...then she said she had to go because she was going to feed the horses :)
Happy Birthday Logi Bear! I love you and miss you!

Photo Catch Up...
I needed to post a few photos, of recent things...
+copy.jpg)
The wedding I shot a few weeks ago. I'm finally almost done with all of the photos.
This is my favorite, I caught them laughing when they thought no one was watching!

Here are a few from Josh's trip to the OSU game...
(He didn't take any of his dad or himself, imagine that!)
The Alumni Band was there!
Some photos from bowling this past weekend with some friends...
Go Cindy for Beating Josh! (And Don once!)
Cindy's idea was to bowl an entire game left handed....let's just say most of mine were in the gutter!
And then the photos from Last night at The Lion King :)
I guess that's all for now....
I'm off to do a conference call for my Advertising class...then watch some TV with Josh before bed.

The Lion King
My dad has been trying to find my mom Lion King tickets for awhile now...and was having trouble. They were either way to expensive, or on a day he couldn't get off work. So he had held off his search for awhile...well Sunday night I was on Craigslist....and I found someone who was selling two for a very good price. I called dad Monday morning, and he said he had to work and couldn't take vacation :( He said wanted me to take mom.... so tonight we're going to see The Lion King at the Ohio Theatre. Mom is very excited, a little bummed that Dad won't be taking her, but happy that her second favorite person is....right mom? :)
In other news....
I'm so ready to be done with school. 4 more quarters. Just 4, I think I can make it.
I'm also ready to scrapbook. I haven't been able to the past like 2 weeks because of school. But I'm going to a crop on Friday, with some friends. Lets just hope it's a productive one!
Josh figured out that he has like 15 more classes to finish his degree.....He takes most of his classes online at Devry. I think he's ready to be done also. I'm not ready for him to be done, because we're going to have to sell everything we own to pay for his loans. I tell him he has to stay in school forever :)
Devon got a new car...A 4 door. I asked him when he was car shopping if a carseat would fit in the back :) Megan says "it doesn't look like a Devon Car...it looks like a Devon's going to be a dad car" haha. And it's true, it does. It's a nice car though. He's happy.
I hope everyone had a great Holiday Weekend!
