Oopsie!

Brian and Ann bought a new house recently

(insert cheer here).
Fez has a manly truck
(insert Tim Taylor grunt here).
Truck got stuck in the mud
(insert 'wah wah' here).

Here is how the events played out:

We found as many sticks as we could to help get out. I think I found a twig.

Brian playing in the mud

We're such good cheerleaders!

My man hard at work :)

Flying mud!

What a way to meet new neighbors!

It was a fun adventure!

Ugh.

Remember when I said THANK YOU SPRING TIME???
Yeah, that was for real.
But I don't think spring time heard me.
I may have jinxed us all.
Oh. And remember how I'm supposed to get
engagement pictures taken tomorrow...
in the snow?
No no. That will not happen.

Stupid snow.

1, 2, 3, 4

I'm sitting here at work, actually doing work, and I get this urge to listen to this song. So I pull it up on YouTube and all work stops. I love this video! I love this song! It reminds me of my honey and I LOVE HIM!!!

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do :)

Who Will Be The Lucky 3?

I responded to one of these a bit ago and realized that part of my response meant that I was supposed to post this too. Oops. So... here it is! The first THREE 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.

4- You have no clue what it's going to be.It may be a story. It may be a joke book, autographed picture of myself, handmade bag, or a little invention of my own! I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows?

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 3 people who do the same on your blog. The first 3 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!

Sounds like fun, right? So, let's play!

Spring is Here

You know spring has sprung when you go to the grocery store
and you instantly hear the small plea for you to come
and partake of the goodness that are these:

Now, one of the only reasons CADBURY MINI EGGS are worse
(or better depending on how you look at it)
than DOVE CARAMEL PROMISES
(see post below)
is that you can only get them during the spring time.

How cruel is that?

I have thought about stocking up so that I can indulge in its yumminess whenever I want.
But then I would do that far more often than I should.
So really Cadbury is doing us all a wonderful favor.
Thank you Cadbury.
Thank you spring time.

Today's Enemy

DOVE CARAMEL PROMISES
Delicious.
Not nutritious.
"Promises" have been better.
But never ceases to satisfy.
Once ate a whole bag in 10 minutes with 3 other girls.
Loved EVERY minute of it.
Today's count: 3 (and counting...)

Just Be"CAUSE"

If you don't know I work for a non-profit organization called Enterprise Mentors International. Mentors provides business training, mentoring, and microfinance services to struggling entrepeneurs in developing nations. I helped out with their gala last November (What up now???) and the success was awesome!!! I was hired full time and have loved it so much!

My co-worker and I have been working on ways to get the Mentors name out in the community more. Mentors helps so many people in need in other countries but because it is international many locals haven't heard of it. So, I'm making this post!

I have added a DONATE NOW button to the right column of my blog page that will take you directly to the PayPal site under Mentors name. I know that the economy is in such a state that there is cash coming out of your ears and you don't know what to do with it. Ok, maybe that's not true, but with only $50 someone immersed in poverty can get the training and resources necessary to become self-sufficient. Then they repay the loan and it goes to help another in need! How wonderful is that?!

For those of you on Facebook, Enteprise Mentors International has a group that would love you to be a member of! You can find updates for monthly events the Youth Outreach Committee is a part of as well as client and organization information. Also, Mentors has just created a CAUSE application. I have pledged to raise $100 before April 5 so if you are willing and able to donate please click HERE to help out!

I could go on about Mentors and how great it is (kinda biased because I do work there, but really). I am not going to post much about this because I don't want this to turn into a work blog. We have one already - MENTORS. Please check it out for updates or more info or visit our website at www.enterprise-mentors.org.

P.S. Any social media experts out there? Any advice you may have is greatly appreciated :)
