because My Dear Ginny did it...

MONTHS ago.


I'm bored, and need to unwind. This will be fun!

• If I were a day of the week, I'd be Sunday - the day of rest :)
  

• If I were a time I'd be somewhere between 7 and 8am. The house is still quiet and I get my coffee in peace
  

• If I were a direction I would be South
  

• If I were a tree I'd be a Weeping Willow

• If I were a tool I'd be a level
  

• If I were a flower I'd be Lilly of the Valley

• If I were a musical instrument I'd be a Piano
  

• If I were a color I'd obviously be PINK!
  

• If I were a fruit I'd be a Mango!

• If I were an element I'd be water for sure

• If I were a food I'd be a Mango (see above)
  

• If I were a place I'd be Home
  

• If I were a fabric I'd be Snuggly Flannel
  

• If I were a scent I'd be Eau de Fleur by Kenzo

• If I were an object I would be an ipod

• If I were a song I'd be We've Got Tonight by Bob Seger
  

So there you have it! I think most of my many followers (I love all 4 of you haha) have done this. If you come across it and want to do it, go for it! It'll be fun!

Dog is God spelled backwards!

There are no words to explain how good it is to see my dogs after a hard, long day. They are so happy to see me, they ALWAYS shower me with kisses. Their excitement bubbles over to me, instantly putting me in a better mood. They truly take away my cares! On my worst days I find myself driving home thinking "I just need Max and Kallie kisses."

I am so thankful for them! (chewed stuff and all!)

Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something, and has lost something.

Fireman Al had our 6th anniversary last week. I can't believe it's been 6 years. When I think about ALL that we have been through, good and bad, I am amazed.

There is so much I could put in this post (6 years worth of stuff!)

I think the things that stand out the most to me are the fact that he always makes me laugh. Every day. Sometimes its on purpose (like when he's trying to get out of trouble) sometimes its just by being him.

He is a small town boy, and always will be. Seriously, big cities make him sweat and get cranky.

He loves his job so much. It's not always easy, and I do most stuff alone. It is who he is though, he wouldn't be whole with out it. I fell in love with him, so that means I accept it. (plus, who doesn't love firemen??)

He has the biggest soft spot ever for our dogs. Kallie follows him around all day long, and he eats it up like ice cream cake. Max sleeps in the bed with him in the morning after I go to work. He built Molly a special shelf in the living room for her ashes, paw print, and collar. Though, that could be just so I would stop crying over her(<- another reason why I love him)

He is VERY loyal to the people he loves. I am thankful to be one!

He makes me want to be a better person.

He is, without a doubt, my best friend.
