Dinosaurs and minecraft

So this past week one of the ladies from corporate came out to check up on us. Her name is Natalie and I absolutely adore her! She is just too funny!

She told me lots of her interesting theories...one being that she does not believe Dinosaurs EVER existed. I must say I was really confused when she said this. I looked at her and said "How can you not?" 

I guess she thinks that Dinosaurs bones were just placed on the Earth for us to find. I couldn't help but laugh. Then I went home and told my Hubby about this and he agreed with her. I disagreed.

We later on spoke with my daddy and discovered that I was right and he was wrong. ;) We do believe that Dinosaurs DID exist. But I just had to share what a crazy theory Natalie had, because I had never heard that in my entire life. Psssh...who cant believe in Dinosaurs??

So, Josh and I have a new found addiction.... MINECRAFT

Call me a nerd, but I am totally in love with this game. Its so easy and that's probably why I love it. You pretty much just dig and dig....and dig.. and then you can build stuff, but you mainly dig. Its pixelated (is that how you spell that..is that a word?) graphics so at first I thought "oh my heck, this is the stupidest game i've ever seen, I'll never play that". Then Josh convinced me to just try it out...  I then played for about 3-4 hours straight... Ridiculous,  I know.  We came to the conclusion that the reason it's pixelated graphics is because they spent so much time creating cool things you can do in the game that they didnt need awesome graphics because the game makes up for it.  I suggest you all try it. :)

Well I gotta get goin. <3

Tata for now!

Mothers Day

First my Mother, forever my Friend. <3

I am so grateful for a wonderful mother who has been so supportive and loving all throughout my life.

I honestly don't know where I would be without her. She is always so willing to help me and everyone around me. She's such a wonderful example to me. I know Heavenly Father blessed me with her because he know that any other woman couldn't be as patient with me as my mom was. I am so grateful for her and for all the nights that she held my hand and cried when I cried. She raised me to do what was right and helped me realize that I am a Daughter of God.  I love her so much. She's so beautiful INSIDE AND OUT!. 

I love you mom.

Happy Mothers Day.

p.s. there are more pictures at the bottom. :)

I found this poem online and I thought it was perfect. I Love you.

To be a mother is not an easy task, 
yet you do it proudly everyday no matter what is asked.
You have turned your baby into a beautiful young lady.
You were there for me since the very beginning and saved me countless tears.
The pushy and wise advice you gave will carry me through the years.
With my every mistake or wrongful deed, 
you were always there to understand.
You put no limits on my dreams or anything else I wish to do.
You never forget to say you care or that you love me to.
The smile and tears upon your face when I achieve provides me with more value in my heart then you’d ever believe.
There is no other person that will shape my heart the way you’ve done, 
your job finished perfectly for your precious daughters and son.
We have had a rocky road through triumph and catastrophe, hard time and despair,
but not a single moment of time of not having a wonderful mother there.
You have always put in your last with love and my whole life is not enough time for me to repay you.
We always put our disagreements to the side and manage to make it through. 
I know that my teen years have driven you crazy but you have guided me with assurance along the way.
You have given me comfort and certainty with every breath I take within the day.
Your little girl is growing up but your baby girl will always remain deep inside me.
There are not enough words that can thank you for everything you have helped me emotionally and physically. 
I have my whole future ahead of me and you are the women that has leaded me and guided me towards the proper path.
How can one simple day prove that much thanks and love to someone who has pushed this far and still is working her way?
No other person deserves a more wonderful Mothers Day.

Well, I've decided that Im going to start blogging again. I only did it for about a week last time because I had nothing exciting going on.
Now that Josh and I have been married for 1 year, we've got alot more going on. We recently remodeled our downstairs living room/theater room. Let me tell ya, it was a pain in the BUTT!! We really hadn't planned on remodeling it for a while, until one night around 1 AM I heard a loud banging downstairs, I went down to see what was going on and I found my hubby tearing down some paneling in the hallway.  So, of course now we have to tear down the paneling in the rest of the basement. So that is how it started.
It took us a total of about 2 months to finally finish it. We would do bit by bit. We were both too busy to really spend a whole day on it. It also took longer because our house is Crooked, so Josh had to make a whole bunch of different things look level. Im so grateful for a husband who can figure that stuff out and make our home look beautiful. Once he finished his part, I started mine...the painting. Im known for being the MESSIEST painter ever! He tells everyone of his first experience painting with me. We were painting our upstairs a maroon/red and so of course we put plastic down, but he didn't realize that he would need to be putting the plastic on the couches also. I somehow got the couch splattered with paint from 20 ft away. Also, one of the times we were painting outside I trailed white paint all the way down our porch stairs and on the side of the house. Don't ask me how I do it, but I do. I honestly try not to be messy, but it's pretty darn hard.
So, when Josh told me that I would be painting downstairs I was kind of nervous because we have new couches and we would be painting the walls purple, but amazingly, I didnt get a single drop on anything. I was so proud of myself.
I will post pictures soon. Josh will be putting the baseboard on soon, so I dont want to take pictures without that on.
Hopefully I can update my blog atleast 3 times a week, but we'll see how it goes.

Lots of Love
