What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning?
You Are Lively and Courageous
You are full of energy. You are spirited and boisterous.
You are bold and daring. You are willing to do some pretty outrageous things.
Your high energy sometimes gets you in trouble. You can have a pretty bad temper at times.

You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something.
You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense.
You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun.

You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.
You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.
At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

You are balanced, orderly, and organized. You like your ducks in a row.
You are powerful and competent, especially in the workplace.
People can see you as stubborn and headstrong. You definitely have a dominant personality.

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.
You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.
You have the classic "Type A" personality.

Got this from Bonnie AND I have a new post from it.

Lucky you!

I thought it was a nice time to do a new post. :)

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year. (might be a little while)
4- You have no clue what it's going to be.
It may be a story. It may be poetry, shoes, bags, or a little invention of my own! I may draw or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
5- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange. Believe me... it may blow your mind!

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!

Happy Almost Birthday

So my amazing friend Bonnie and I have birthdays very close to each other. (Bonnie's is the 26th, and mine is the 31st of January) And she is so great to want to do a combined party for our birthdays. What a treat! We got together with our mutual long time girl friends.

The food was great the company even better. I have some of the best friends. It was an all girls party so thanks to the husbands for being so great about it. :)

We went to the Pizza Factory for dinner (yummy bread sticks, and good pizza) and then came back to my place for ice cream cake...Bonnie and I were the only ones to finish our pieces (or at least come close to finishing).

I am so grateful for all my friends. I have really been blessed with so many amazing people in my life. I don't know how I could make it without them. I missed having Mel, Jam and Cherise there, however you all had valid excuses so I understand. You were truly missed. Hopefully next time you can come.

Here are some more of our fun pictures.




Thank you all so much for coming!

Happy New Year

Well i have had some grand plans for my blog posts, but I don't have the pictures and a blog just isn't the same without pictures. Darn it!!! Well I guess I will just say Christmas was FANTASTIC. I was sick almost the whole time I was home and for even a few days after I got home. But I wouldn't have traded the time with my family for ANYTHING. It was awesome. I miss them all terribly now and can't wait to see them again.
New years was great. I was sick, so I didn't party as much as I had planned but it was still good. Its nice to have a new year to do new things...or to think about doing new things.

I will post more again later. Just didn't want anyone to think I wasn't ever going to blog again. :)

Best Advise for Guys...

Seriously I think I might buy it for every single...or married guy I know. It is AWESOME!!!!

You are going to love it!

Black Friday

Well I did it. I got up at 4 am with my sister to do the Black Friday shopping. I haven't done it in YEARS and my sister and I had a plan. It turned out well. There was only one time that we were outside for more then 15 min. (We were outside for 2.5 hrs) YIKES. THAT was an experience. We were waiting to go in for a bargain deal for an IPOD. We sure did get it, and I think it must have been worth it for the person receiving the gift will absolutely know how long we waited for it. :) All in all it was a great time. No one where we were got maimed...although it was getting close towards the end of it all.


The lines were long...amazingly long for a store that didn't open until 8, there were people there before 5 am (so that is what they said.) And were werent too far behind them. But the line kept growing..the Ipod was a FANTASTIC deal.

I got all of my families gifts so now I don't have to bring them with me when I come home for Christmas. Yay! However I don't know that I will do it again. I think I got like 3 hrs of sleep the night before, and when you are visiting family there isn't a lot of time for a nap.
