Metal Flavored Gum.

For real, this gum is supposed to be Spearmint, but I swear, it tastes very much like metal. I don't even know why I'm still chewing it!

I've had a zombie-esque personality as of late, i dont know why so much, but caring so much about anyone and everything kind of makes me tired! So i get in these stages where I just "turn off" my emotions, so to speak. And I do this completely sub consciously, and don't even realize it until Ty points it out (because he can't stand when i don't communicate well!).

Wedding plans never stop. I don't want to elope, but probably only because i'm stubborn as an ox. Seriously. I dislike all the planning very much, but there's no way i'm going to get married and everyone and their mom not be there to see it.haha...

I'm just ready to be married already!

Dreams

..I'm talking serious, "what do you want to do with your life?" dreams..i'm talking literal, sleeping dreams.

Every single night since I got engaged I have had a dream about either getting married or playing music. This probably because I got engaged on the stage I had played worship on all week long before, and because all I can think about is wedding plans!
I want a normal dream again!

ok wait..
i fibbed. I did have ONE dream not pertaining to weddings or music..
and it was WEIRD.

It was about me racing the world's fastest octopus, supposedly called the "great santa fe", across the English Channel. I absolutely have NO idea where that came from! It was so nutty!

Anybody else have any crazy dreams lately?

Engaged :)

Yes!
Ty asked me to spend the rest of my life with him a week ago today!
That guy...man! He did better than I could have ever imagined.

We were both leaders (and he the worship leader) at a camp we took our youth to last week. We first fell for each other at that very camp, over 2 years ago. It would take me an incredibly long blog post to tell our story...so I'll just post the link to the video of his proposal instead :)

Our Love Story!

All the stuff he was telling me that you can't hear, i don't really remember that much of it either...only because I was just so shocked and excited..haha.

I can't say that I've ever seen a better proposal. He did it perfect (and EXACTLY the way I've always wanted).

I can't wait to get on with the rest of our life!!!

P.S.
Ty's 24th birthday was Wednesday, Happy Birthday Handsome!

Just dropping in to Say..

My laptop is broken, which I haven't updated in so long.
The dc jack in it (charging port) broke on the inside, so I have to send it off to get repaired :(.
I'm borrowing my co workers laptop while she's on her lunch break ;)


I got a new kitten, named Clark, for my 19th birthday. He's adorable.



Also, my sweet heart, Ty, just had lapband surgery today in Dallas. I so wish I could be there with him!! The surgery went well, but he's hurting pretty bad! I miss him and can't wait for him to be home and feeling better!

I do believe..

I am under the impression that more people read my blog than actually follow me on blogger..
which kind of freaks me out.
I'm pretty sure I'm not even interesting or cool enough to be blog stalked..but it sure is seeming like that's the case. weird.
I mean..I guess that's cool and all, considering this is the world wide web..and I'm not posting anything huge and exciting and secretive..
just wondering why some people feel the need to talk when nothing has really been said?

Things that make you go hmmm...


That's my rant for the day!

Disney'd Out!

My family just got back from our vacation to Disney World on Friday, and man, we're all beat!
This was our 6th, and final trip to Disney World together (until my sister and i get older and have our own families and stuff!), and it was a blast. I love Disney so so much.
I could go on and on!
I'll be posting pictures later, I haven't had time to upload them yet!

It's Monday morning, and I'm back at work!
It's ok though, I'm glad to be back in my home town :)
...more on that later too.


New news is rapidly approaching. Something big is about to happen!

Green beans!

As I type, my mom is cooking green beans and macaroni and cheese downstairs in the kitchen to go with our baked chicken. Usually I'd be downstairs helping, as i've acquired a sense of "there's no real reason to go help, except for just to be polite. it's just what you do". I've acquired that "sense" with a lot of things lately. I think i'm turning into an american mother already. hahaha.
Either way, I love love love green beans. I love them.

Random tidbit:
I usually use Mozilla Firefox. But today I'm using Safari as a change of pace. I'm so daring. I like to live on the edge, you know.


Yesterday,
Ty and I (and my sister, my sister is pretty much always with me when we're not at school or work, so i thought it'd be nice to include her) attended my uncle's fish fry yesterday. It raiiinnnneeddd. And of course, Lousiana being Louisiana, it was super muggy and humid..but it was ok. I don't like fried fish, but i like french fries. And lots of french fries did I eat!

And,
my sister and I met a friend of mine I havent seen since probably my sophomore year in high school for a photo session!
Emily (no i did not refer to myself in 3rd person, we share the same name!) was so much fun! She's really good at what she does too, so check the link out! I've also been eyeing her stuff on Etsy for a while now..haha!

Funny story about Emily, when I first met her, my best friend and I were the new kids in our church youth group. We went to a summer camp that year, and Emily was in the youth group we went with. The one stand out memory I have of her, was of her and Lauren Peters running up and down the middle of the dorm for roughly 2 hours yelling about the bubble wrap tied around their heads. hahaha. And also Emily popped up at mine and Tatum's bunk before bed that night and asked us if we liked death...i'm pretty sure our answer was no.
hahahaha.
HA!
man..funny kids. It's nice to know you've mellowed out Emily! hahahaha.
