That One Day I Found Old Pictures

Like...

That one time Britania, Keeley, Karlee and I lived together.





That one time we graduated...and surprised everyone.


That one time Treesa got married.


That one time we drove 110 down to STG and got a ticket.





That one time I drove a duck in Boston.


That one time I went back east with my parents to see HP museum, and much more.




Take me back to those care free days!

Love, B

Day Date

A long while back, when Andy went on his first business trip when we were very first married, I had promised these boys I'd take them on a date...sadly, it just now happened.
BUT they loved it and so did I and that's all that matters!

Yesterday, I picked them up around 11:30, and we headed to Wendy's for some lunch.


After Wendy's I had bought tickets to take them to see "Wreck It Ralph".
They literally were in awe the whole time.
They didn't move from this position until the very end.


I think that I am the luckiest girl in the world to be an aunt to these boys.
They were so well behaved and I enjoyed spoiling them!
I'm smitten by them!


We can't wait until Parker and Paige are old enough so they can go on a date with us too!
(Maybe then I'll have to bring Andy though!)

Anyway, it was a great day and we are already planning our next dates!

ps. Wreck It Ralph was really good!

Love, B.

Weird Idea?

A random thought came into my mind the other day...
what if you could have an "every occasion registry". 
Ya know, like for Christmas or Birthdays or any other day someone wants to give you a present?
That way when someone asks you "What do you want for Christmas?"
you can send them to your registry. 
Am I totally crazy or no?


It doesn't have to be at a specific store like Target or Bed, Bath and Beyond, but instead written somewhere like a blog or something so that people can look there and know what to get you!
You can update it, change it, and do whatever you want to it whenever you want!
Even post a link to that item if it can be found on the internet somewhere!
Seriously, am I crazy for thinking that's a good idea?
I would love to look at my friends "registry" so I could get them a birthday gift or something.

I'm doing it!
So who wants to do it with me??

Love, B

New Year's Eve

So I'm super lame and suck at remembering to take pictures. 
BUT we had a great New Years Eve this year!
We had a bunch of our friends over for games and food.
Before everyone came, I kept saying over and over again in my head, "don't forget to take pictures, don't forget to take pictures, etc.." you get the point.
And low and behold, I didn't take hardly ANY pictures.
I managed to grab my camera and run outside, luckily not missing the ball dropping.
I snuck in these pictures and they are dark, blurry, and just well crap.
But you know what? They are my treasured crap. They are the only pictures I have of these friends.
So hopefully this post will help us remember to take more pictures!







We had a blast with everyone and look forward to many New Years Eve's like it in the future!
Thanks everyone who came!

Love, B & A

A Fresh Start

is definitely going to be a good one for us!
We have lots of things to look forward to and we couldn't be more excited to share them with everybody!
We are doing things I never thought I'd be doing at this time in my life!

2012, was a good year for us.
It had it's ups and downs, but we ultimately learned new things and grew a lot.
We are more than happy to say goodbye to 2012, and hello to 2013!
