Marco Rubio Rally</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's topic is on voting. It is Super Tuesday and all! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since I was legal age to vote I have never voted. I never registered. I grew up with a (Republican) dad that watched nothing but politics and then I married my husband (Democrat) who does the exact same thing. I've seen both side of the campaigns and I have always just seen a lot of people vote for their "team."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have felt all this time like it was a popularity contest and I never seen the point in voting. I have never seen politicians who I would whole heartily feel comfortable voting for so I figured I shouldn't vote just to be part of the crowd. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well over the past couple of weeks something just came to me and I feel like I should vote. I don't like where this country is heading. I worry about what it will be like for my children as adults and I don't like what I see. So I feel like now is my time to vote.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I promised I wouldn't be one of those voters I have heard at a Trump rally I attended who said " I'm voting for whoever is going to be the winner of the Republicans just so Democrats lose." I also promised I would do as much research as I can to make a decision I feel I could live with and who I believed in most. Not just the popular candidate everyone else wants.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this new adventure I wanted to take in the full experience. Especially since this is my first time voting. I decided to attend the speaking engagements of the presidential candidates.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were all free and what was there to lose!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I went to a Trump rally first it was a fun experience but I cannot say I was persuaded to swing that way.</div>

<br /><div style="text-align: center;">
I had planned to see Ted Cruz but didn't make it. I haven't been too drawn into his campaign much. That doesn't mean I won't be doing more research. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've seen Ben Carson at a local church not to have a rally but to give a sermon, I must say he has captured my attention with his soft spoken, calm demeanor. Unlike the others he has such a calm way of explaining himself and even though he never gets nearly enough media attention he respectfully gives his views and opinions. I feel he is one of the most sincere and honest of the candidates. In my opinion he deserves to be treated like all of the other candidates and people should be able to hear more from him. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yesterday I attended a rally for Marco Rubio. He is another one that has my attention. I feel like he is the closest to being a real person like myself. He also doesn't come off as highly hostile or cocky. I like his message and he is another one that comes off as sincere to me.</div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<div style="text-align: center;">
John Kasich is one that I haven't been drawn to at all. I will do my research on him too but what I've heard hasn't thrilled me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't been able to attend any of Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders events. Like I've said, I've only been on this journey for the last 2 weeks and well most of the rally's I found out about were the Republicans.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My view with Hillary Clinton has been not too good. I feel like sometimes things are said to get the vote. But like all the other candidates I will continue with my research and who knows maybe I'll feel differently.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bernie Sanders I haven't learned too much about yet. I do notice he doesn't get a lot of airtime from the media either. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So as of now I really like Ben Carson and Marco Rubio. Please people do your own research and decide which candidates share your views, not just the popular ones only the news likes to tell you about. Remember our President represents American for all of us, not just democratic or republican but as a whole, we really need a President who will represent America well and do what's best for us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You might be like I was and think my one vote won't mean much but together it can. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some of these politicians can reel you in with a good speech or promises of what can't be delivered. Some are business minded and can run a business but that doesn't mean they can run a country!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do have one regret, I regret that I started too late. I just registered to vote last week so I can't vote today. For all of you who have the privilege to make sure you do your part to vote! </div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So yesterday we made it to the Braves game. They were playing the Yankees. The Braves were totally destroyed by the Yankees. Not just this game but the whole 3 game series. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I think it is a shame that it felt more like you were in New York than in Atlanta. There were way more Yankee fans than Braves fans.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you read my blog you know I'm a Braves fan and have been since I was a kid.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This year has been a tough one for the Braves. For one, almost the whole team was traded. For us fans we lost a lot of our favorites. Not to mention we are getting a new stadium in a different location which isn't even in Atlanta (which in my opinion is not needed.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I myself have complained about getting new players and have had to get use to the thought of new ones. I have learned to live with it. We are not getting those players back so why keep crying over it. What we need to do as Braves fans are support these new guys.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">All I have seen since they have started is, slamming the team. Oh this team sucks, they will never make the playoffs, we have no team. Now people are all over Freeman because of injuries... does anyone know what these players do for a living??? They cause wear and tear to their bodies every time they take the field. Should they even care to win if they don't even have fans who want them?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Maybe as fans if we try and lift their spirits instead of bash them they might feel that loved and feel like they belong. They didn't stand a chance coming into this team when they replaced every player we loved. They didn't choose to trade them and they didn't choose to be on this team. They have big shoes to fill and we must make them feel welcomed in our city.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7xj3HeU8P10/VeRxCvRDWyI/AAAAAAAATyc/aB_akAJrl_A/s1600/20150830_181905.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="192" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7xj3HeU8P10/VeRxCvRDWyI/AAAAAAAATyc/aB_akAJrl_A/s320/20150830_181905.jpg" width="320" /></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Whether they are winning or losing we need to support them. We need to turn all this negativity into positivity. Let's not waste the last years at the Ted hating our own team. F</span>ind <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">yourself new favorites with the guys we got.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Sitting at Turner Field with a 20-6 score isn't what a fan ever wants to see but I stayed until that final out. I was still Tomahawk Choppin' and cheering them on and I was happy to see a lady and her little boy behind me was doing the same. That is what we all need to do! When others are walking out early we need to stay and let them know we still are here for them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Not every team is perfect and I know it's hard to support a team that isn't winning but look on the bright side we still have fan favorites Simmons & Freeman for now. We also have the newest fan favorite Jace Peterson! So let's keep our heads up and be there for the 2015 Atlanta Braves.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For those that can't, you might be better off finding yourself a new baseball team to cheer for! We need the fans that are in when things are going bad as well as good!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Let's attend more games or watch the game on t.v </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">and like momma always said if you can't say nothing nice please don't say anything at all!</span><br />

All Good Things Must Come To An End<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is one of the hardest post I have had to write. Going through this breakup is hard to do. It is getting use to the thought of you not being there early in the morning when I need you most, to pick me up and give me the energy I need to make it through the day. I have become accustomed to having you by my side day and night. I loved you more when you were cold than when you were hot but I loved all of you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
COFFEE,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't think I can make it through this cloudy morning without you. It has come to the point that my doctor seems to think we need to separate. It's no longer a healthy relationship. It's not just you, it's the onions, the garlic, the hot sauce and your brother caffeine. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can say I slept better last night than I have in a long time. But this morning it is pretty hard and I can't shake the sleepy feeling, just keeping my eyes open is a new task on my daily to do list.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for always being there!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To my readers who have had to cut coffee from your life, what have you replaced it with?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am the type of person that drinks from morning to late afternoon. Besides water it is my drink of choice. I haven't notice how much it helps keep me going in the morning until these past two days without it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My doctor seems to think I could be having symptoms of acid reflux so he has given me a list of do not eat or drink. Coffee by far is the worst to get rid of.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I sure will miss my coffee!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

As I blindily sit here waiting to see the eye doctor it reminds me of my first eye exam when I was 7.<br />
<br />
My sister and I went together and wanted to pick our glasses. My parents let us choose too. I walked out with some thick lens with clear pink framed beauties (so I thought!) My sister, the same style but purple! We were too cool.<br />
<br />

Those same glasses these days have obviously made a comeback. Where at a time when people wanted the thinnest frames, to now the thicker the better. Maybe we were the original trendsetters!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Back then it was an excited experience. Now it's reality. I can't even operate without the help of glasses or contacts. I can't see much but a blur without them.<br />
<br />
I'm now waiting for Sam he's trying out contacts for the first time so he is in his class while I finish up this post. It sounds as if they are teaching a child to ride a bike. There's a lot of laugher and firm repeated instructions. It's pretty entertaining!<br />

Wow! I sure have been away for awhile..... Last post was in October 2013. I can say I have had a lot going on during that time. I let my blogging get away from me. I think it's finally time for my come back. I have really missed my blog. But I feel like we are those friends that no matter how long we go without seeing/talking each other we just pick up where we left off. I hope you all feel the same way!<br />

Since my departure Sam and I have bought 2 homes and a little cabin up in North GA near the mountains. We have moved about 45 minutes south of our previous home. It was a lot getting use to. I grew up and lived in the same county for 30 years. I've settled now and can say I am happy in the little town we live in.<br />

The kids are growing like weeds (the weeds that I need to cut in the front yard) I'd say that's pretty darn fast! Gabe's a 4th Grader and Loganator has went through Pre-K and is now proudly in Kindergarten. School started back Monday so now Kait Kait and me have the house all to ourselves during the day! We read our books, paint our nails and attempt multiple hairstyles thanks to Pinterest for proving me a failure in the hair stylin' department!<br />

Recently I was chosen to get the Dr. Scholl's Active Series Replacement Insoles for my running shoes. These Insoles are suppose to help and prevent pain. I have been wearing them in my shoes since I have opened them up. I personally suffer from knee and foot pain. Mainly foot pain because I have high arches and nothing seems to support them.<br />
<br />
Since I have been wearing the Dr. Scholl's Active Series Insoles I have had no foot pain and very little to no knee pain. The insoles fit perfectly in my shoes and provide such comfort to my feet.I feel like every part of my foot is being supported. They help me to exercise longing because of the comfort.<br />
<br />
I am very happy with Dr. Scholl's Active Series Insoles and these are solely my opinion and thoughts on the products.<br />
<br />
Here's the link to their site where you can pick up a $4.00 off coupon for a pair of Active Series Insoles to try for yourself.<br />

Hey Everyone! It's been a while since I have posted it's not because I didn't want to I promise that. A lot has been going on around here. With the seasons changing my kids have been taking turns having strept throat. Each week for the past month a different one has had. This has been my first sick free week. I guess I spoke to soon about that because this morning when I woke my son Gabe announces his throat is sore again. Maybe I won't get a sick free week!<br />
<br />
The CDC offers great advice on strep and all other sicknesses your family may be experiencing with all the weather changes. Here's their link I'm sure you will find helpful advice there!<br />
<a href="http://www.cdc.gov/Features/StrepThroat/">http://www.cdc.gov/Features/StrepThroat/</a><br />
<br />
On top of sick babies I have been on a massive mission house hunting. That is no easy task. Anyone planning to do that better be prepared. Between all of the listed properties online that actually are off the market and the real estate companies that never call you back it can take forever. I luckily found a cute townhouse right around the corner from my apartments so Gabe can finish his school year in the same school.<br />

I have been shopping for furniture and accessories at IKEA one of my favorite stores to go to! But If you want to miss the crowds don't go on the weekend. It's like black Friday and a lot of shoppers are rude. Ikea has a lot of great sales. Also, if you haven't signed up for it yet they have a Family rewards card that saves you money and gives you free Hot Coffee or Hot Tea Every time you visit their restaurant. I must warn you that most of the pieces you buy there you do have to piece together yourself but it is definitely worth it. IKEA has a very family friendly atmosphere with courtesy diapers in the family restrooms and a play land for the kiddos while you shop. I also love that they have a restaurant and bistro. No leaving to find place to eat when your kids start nagging about being hungry! Just roll them to the to the bistro for concession type foods with great deals or head to the restaurant for a more dine in experience.<br />

So between sicknesses and house hunting we took a well needed vacation! We went down to Jekyll Island, GA. One of Georgia's most beautiful, natural places to visit. If you are ever looking for a great laid back vacation full of nature and plenty of relaxing you have to check it out. We stayed for 5 nights and six days and a great affordable place to stay is at the Days Inn. It offers beach views, fire pit, 2 pools, a kiddy pool & hot tub, grill, great little free deluxe continental & on site bike rentals. While on our stay we rode bikes 10+ miles around the island (a must if you visit). We played putt-putt, If you like golf they have courses for that too! Spent countless hours walking the beach and finding natural treasures. We fished off piers, played in parks and swam for hours in the pool and ocean. We even used the fire pit to roast marshmallows and hot dogs one night. We were building memories with the kids and this is one of the best places to do it.<br />

I mentioned that it is pretty natural. They have very limited stores and buildings. It's so quiet and peaceful. Wildlife is very abundant, deer and raccoon are everywhere. In the parks squirrels come around in hoards and have such cute personalities. We also seen a small shark feeding off the shoreline and pods of dolphins on South beach.We like to visit around the Fall because there are less people and low prices.<br />

On our journey we planned to visit a few Nationals parks along the way. Gabe has been learning a lot about James Oglethorpe and Native Americans so we decided to visit places to give him history lessons. however the government shutdown prevented a few of our stops. So makes sure when you are traveling that you call any places you have on your list to make sure they are open for certain season ad their open hours are correct. Or maybe there will be another government shutdown that crosses your path!<br />

On our way home we stopped in Savannah another lovely gem in Georgia! (This is why I could care less to vacation outside of Georgia there is so much to discover!) The town is littered in parks and architecture. Best to walk everywhere you go. We had lunch at Paula Deen's restaurant The Lady & Sons. Great southern home made taste cuisine. The taste felt just like being at home around the dinner table when I was a kid. (For best results call and make an appointment if you are planning to go. It can be packed on certain days and at certain hours.)<br />

While we were in Savannah they were filming the Sponge Bob 2 movie so the kiddos had the chance to see some of the set of the movie. We headed to the riverfront and the kids were amazed at all of the big cargo ships bringing in goods from other countries. We met a local artist painting in front of the river and bought a couple of pictures from him. After that we finished our trip walking from park to park looking at all of the beautiful scenery and learning a lot of Georgia's history.<br />

</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
Hey Everyone! So in my last post I told you all about BzzAgent and how I am now a BzzAgent. For those who missed that post BzzAgent is a Social Media Company. You can sign up, take surveys and they will match you with campaigns. In a campaign you will receive free products to try out. Once you try them out you have a to do list and send in your reviews on the products. Easy as that.
<img alt="" src="https://img.bzzagent.com/image/truMoo.jpg?Type=activity&Activity=8657869689&Campaign=2847543547&Uid=1513792&token=1c9f9912fb78b0bfd6c5851c228fa9d3" />
</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
My latest campaign is Halloween TruMoo Milk. BzzAgent sent me a free coupon for a gallon of milk, about 10 more 75 cent off coupons for sharing and 2 recipes using TruMoo Milk. TruMoo has Limited Edition Vanilla Milk in Halloween Orange and Chocolate milk. I picked up both flavors today and my kids are loving it. I'm love giving my kids TruMoo as a healthier option than cokes and juices loaded with sugar. You might say well flavored milk has sugar. It does but TruMoo contains 35% less sugar than other leading brands of chocolate milk. I find comfort in knowing that TruMoo is 1% Lowfat Milk ,it has vitamins A & D and they use no growth hormones or high fructose corn syrup.<br />

TruMoo Limited Edition Lowfat Vanilla Milk In Halloween Orange is a fun treat for the kiddos. My 3 love the color and the flavor. I like that you can taste the vanilla instead of loads of sugar like a lot of flavored milk I have tried. I always have to add regular milk to my flavored milks because of the high sugar taste.With TruMoo you don't have to do that. It is smooth & creamy. It taste to me like a vanilla milkshake. So Yummy!<br />

TruMoo Lowfat Chocolate Milk is such a yummy drink for the family. My kids are always asking for seconds. It's great hot or cold. Not all sugary and you can taste just the right amount of chocolate. It also makes an awesome milkshake. Add vanilla ice cream and TruMoo Lowfat Chocolate Milk in a cup and stir until smooth and creamy, top it off with whipped cream and there you have a great dessert. </div>

<br />
Good Day Everyone! I have something awesome to share with you all!<br />
<br />
I checked my mailbox yesterday and to my surprise I had a big box inside, it had bumble bees on the tape it as sealed with. Finally, what I have been waiting for! My very first BzzAgent Campaign, The Quaker Back to School Campaign.<br />
<br />
You are probably asking what is she talking about. Well I'm here to tell you. BzzAgent is a great website, it's a social media marketing company. If you are big with social media or you get excited about trying new brands and like recommending them to friends and family this is the site for you. You take surveys and BzzAgent finds campaigns that they believe are right for you. They will give you an option to join a campaign for different brands. If you accept they will send you free items or discounts from the brands. When you get the products all you do is test them out and give your honest opinions about them and spread the word. You also get a to do list. When you complete them all you get a higher BzzAgent score which means you are much more likely to receive more campaigns. Me myself, I'm a stay at home mom, so I have extra time on my hands. It's really fun to do and who doesn't like freebies!<br />

Well back to that special box with bees...I got into my house and was quick to open it up to see what was inside. Inside I found a box of 14.5oz box of Quaker Oatmeal Squares cereal, 7 pack Quaker Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies, Quaker Real Medleys Cherry Pistachio Multi Grain Fruit and Nut bar, Quaker Popped Rice Snacks in cheddar cheese flavor and 14 $1 off coupons for different Quaker products for myself and to share. I received all this free just for being a BzzAgent! Yes I said Free! I would have to say that's pretty cool. I can truly say I have never been so happy to find bees in my mailbox.<br />

Quaker is pretty much known for oatmeal. That is the first thing I think about when I hear the brand. I grew up eating it for breakfast. Who knew they had so many more products?<br />
<br />
I know you are all pretty curious to know what I think of them, so I will be giving you all my true and honest opinions as my family and I test them out!<br />

It's that time of the year again! It's time for Shark Week on The Discovery channel! They are celebrating 26 years August 4! Logan & myself love watching this every year. Logan loves anything in the ocean! I find Shark Week to be a great learning experience for him. I don't recommend this for all children my oldest is 7 and will not watch it because it scares him. If I thought this for Logan I wouldn't allow him to watch it. When I was younger I always watched wildlife specials and this is Logan's wildlife special.<br />

Hey y'all! I just got my Mary Kay Glamour Looks VoxBox from Influenster, I've been telling you all about. I checked my mailbox on Tuesday and to my and to my surprise there was a cute pink and black box with the words Mary Kay on it. I got into my car and opened it up. Inside was the following products, Lash Love Lengthening Mascara in I love Black, Lash Primer, Cream Eye Color in Violet Storm, True Dimensions Lip Stick in Pink Cherie and a cream eye color/concealer brush.<br />

These are my main makeup items in my vanity. As you know I live in the south, so I mainly just worry with my eyes and lips. Foundation is a sometimes items because it all just sweats off when I walk out the door. I was really excited to receive these particular ones. I have been using all of my Mary Kay Make up from the day I got my voxbox and here is my findings.<br />

It does exactly what it says, it lengthens! Lash love lengthens and </span>separates<span style="font-family: inherit;"> your lashes leaving you with a very natural look. I experienced no clumping or caking. It went on super easy with the wand which is curved to help you achieve curled lashes. Lash Love is a very lightweight mascara and it didn't leave me feelings as if I put glue on my </span>lashes <span style="font-family: inherit;">as with other brands I have used. I totally recommend using Lash Love if you want length without the heavy </span>goop<span style="font-family: inherit;"> feeling. I will be replacing my regular mascara with Lash Love!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I have used Lash love Mascara with the Lash Primer and also without. When I applied Lash Primer it went on very easily without a messy feeling. Lash Primer was also very lightweight. My honest opinion on the Lash Primer is I really couldn't tell a difference when I used it.</span></div>

<span style="text-align: center;">I really liked this a lot. it goes on very smooth. It's a creamy, silky texture. You don't have to use a lot to achieve the color on your eyes. Cream Eye Color is so much better than using a powder eye shadow because it didn't dust onto your face and shirt. The color Violet Storm is a good color for a night or day look. I myself have green eyes and Violet Storm really made my eyes stand out!</span><br />

I like that the bristles were not coarse, it was very soft. The brush really made applying the cream eye color easy. the brush wasn't too big and made the color go on very softly and smooth. Very worth the price!<br />

The color Pink Cherie is good if you are looking for a natural look or if you want color. It's not too overly dramatic or way to bright. it went on smoothly and moisturized my lips as I wore it. It was a very pretty pink. I like to top it off with clear lip gloss. It really makes the color POP!</div>

Well guys I am really happy with My Mary Kay products and will definitely be purchasing more in the near future. Don't just take my word for it! You can always check out their website and see all the products they offer. Mary Kay has so many options for all skin tones and types. It definitely is not your grandmother's make up as a lot of people I have heard think!<br />

Hey Y'all! Finally I survived the wedding! Sam and I made it official June 8th.<br />
<br />
Planning a wedding is something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy! I have never felt so stressed out in all of my life.<br />
<br />

I was a complete emotional wreck the last week before my wedding. I ended up shopping for I was in need of literally an hour and a half before my vows. In the end it didn't happen in the field I had planned it to be in and at least 80% of everything I planned to do didn't happen. My wedding was delayed and hour and I didn't have time to cook a lot of the food I bought.<br />
<br />
D.I.Y idea was the worst mistake ever! My sister Lori and I stayed up pasted 1 AM the night of my wedding still making decorations. Bought out every store in a 20 mile radius of materials, which still wasn't enough! We didn't have time to turn the flower into bouquets and boutonnieres. We ladies ended up with just handfuls of flowers. My bouquet was a quick ambush of my grandmother's Hydrangea bush. (I always wanted a blue Hydrangea bouquet!) Thanks to my niece Savannah who quickly got them for me! The men didn't even end up with a boutonniere at all!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
Outdoors is a whole 'nother ball field. Let me tell you! For anyone who wants this idea, please make sure you really think it through. Pay attention to every detail.<br />
<br />
If you do decide to have an outdoor wedding make sure it's before the months of sweltering hot humid weather. Walking down the aisle I felt as though waterfalls were pouring down my legs. Was I peeing myself, you might ask? No! I was sweating! Pretty gross! My slip was sticking to my legs it was pretty uncomfortable. Also, in pictures when you are this hot they start looking as miserable as they feel!<br />

<br />
There is an issue to with rain. It didn't rain on my wedding day only the day before. Rain had made the ground so squishy and every time I picked up my feet, my whole heel sank deep into the ground. Not so elegant looking walking down the aisle trying not to be notice as you yank your sinking feet out of the ground!<br />
<br />
Pest! These little critters don't take a break just because you are getting married. Mosquitoes were attacking everyone. I suppose we could have sprayed ourselves down with repellent. Who really wants that smell as wedding perfume? There were also ants, horrible fire ants! By the end of the night my feet were covered with pus filled blisters from evil ants! Last critters you have are flies! Flies smell just one whiff of food and they invite all their family and friends to your reception, even though you didn't send an invite! Nothing is worse than people having to shew flies off of their food.<br />
<br />
Your location! Where ever you have it make sure you remember that you need power for music, light or any other electronics. This is the whole reason I didn't have my wedding in the field I had prepared. We wouldn't have had any music for our ceremony because we didn't have enough extension cords to reach out there. Our DJ couldn't set up without power. In this case you can rent a generator (which I think would be pretty loud when running or a lot of extension cords ( which can get pretty tacky).<br />
<br />
Now don't forget traditions! At my wedding not to many traditions happened. The removal and tossing of the garter. I guess it's a good thing this didn't go on. Remember how I said I was sweating, when I took it off it was drenched! Who would want to catch that?<br />
<br />
The tossing of the bouquet! No future brides at my wedding! If I would have thrown that a lot of girls would be planning their wedding (Remember I didn't have time to tie together my bouquet). My bouquet would have rain down in all directions!<br />
<br />
No seeing the bride before the wedding! Sam and I woke up together and see each other most of the morning. Never did he see me in my dress, not until I walked down the aisle.<br />
<br />
Car decorations! No just married signs on my car. it just didn't happen.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://static.someecards.com/someecards/usercards/5819d61f3a535033d46e9e91b24e4625.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="224" src="http://static.someecards.com/someecards/usercards/5819d61f3a535033d46e9e91b24e4625.png" width="320" /></a></td></tr>

The e-card I am talking about.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Something blue! If you are a Pinterest user, I know you have seen the e-card that says, "I am not sure if a handful of Xanax counts as your something blue." I must say at my wedding it did! I'm not the pill popper type of person, but I do have a severe case of social anxiety. The thought of walking down the aisle and talking in front of a crowd really terrifies me and I start having panic attacks. I get really shaky, hot, sweaty and jumble my words. I literally worried weeks about being in front of people. I refused to have that issue on my special day, so I took half of a Xanax! It mellowed me out enough to get me down the aisle and get out my vows! I had my borrowed , my sister's bracelet, I had my new, earrings, necklace and shoes. Now that I think about it I didn't have something old and my blue was a Xanax!<br />
<br />
So there you have it. Somethings I wish I would have been told ahead of time. If you are planning a wedding I sure hope this helps. Remember to not let the stress of planning your wedding take over what is suppose to be one of the most important days in your life! When stress starts taking over please take time for yourself and remove yourself from the situation that is causing the stress.<br />
<br />
Sam and I did have a beautiful wedding ceremony, besides all of the unplanned mishaps. Remember it doesn't matter where you get married. It doesn't matter if nothing goes as planned. Marriage isn't about spending tons of money, having the best of everything and things being perfect for just one short day. Marriage is only about you and the person you are choosing to share the rest of your life with. Making a commitment to each other to love, honor and to be with only that person for better or worse for life. The ceremony is where you confess your love for each other and become one. It should be a happy occasion whether you choose to do it at the courts or plan a huge wedding. Don't forget it's just one day, it's not worth getting all worked up and frustrated about it. Just let the cards fall where they may and in the end all that matters is the two of you and the journey that is about to begin!<br />

Once again I apologize for my absence. I ended up sick for a week following my wedding with flu like symptoms. I was also so exhausted mentally and physically from all of the things in life added to planning for the wedding. I am just now starting to recover and feel back to normal. I'm finally back to cooking real meals for my family again! So it's not just my blog I have slipped with.<br />

This video is what Gabe watches before baseball to get ready to play. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It gets him in the zone!</div>
<br />
<br />
Hey Everyone! We are about to head of to Gabe's last game of the season. We always spend our morning before games watching Chipper Jones YouTube videos. It really gets him in the mood to play! This particular one is his favorite! Gabe says he plays like he is at Turner Field and already in the Big Leagues when he is on that little diamond at our local park. We know it's little league and we are not the crazy parents who take these games too seriously. Watching these videos do make him want to play like a pro though.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
My Gabe loves baseball and we love the game too. It is something that brings my family close together. This is the first year he has got to play, last year we missed the deadline. I will really miss going to practice and going to the games! When you join something like this you never imagine you will meet some of the coolest moms. I have meet some great moms and I think we have had just as much fun on the sidelines as the kids!<br />
<br />
Well I gotta get going. I do suggest checking out a local team of any sport your child loves. It isn't just a great experience for the children it's great for parents too! Especially if you are a Stay at Home parent!I hope you all enjoy your day!<br />

Hey my lovelies! I have just discovered a great site! It's called Influenster! This site let's you have a voice in the everyday products that you use. You get to grade and write reviews about all the products you love and the ones you are not to fond of! They don't just want your good feedback, they also want the bad. If you are anything like me you want to hear real opinions from real people on products before you buy them.<br />
<br />
On Influenster you post your true feelings and experiences with the products. Tell about the pros and cons and also give your own tips.<br />
<br />
I have become a little addicted to Influenster! You get a score from 0-100. The higher the score the better you are doing. You have a lot of fun little tasks to do. When you complete the task you earn badges ( kinda like Girl Scouts). It's a lot of fun! I am always trying to get a higher score!<br />
<br />
If you are really good at this you might even get a Vox Box! Now a Vox Box is not a guarantee but even having the chance to receive one seems pretty awesome to me! A Vox Box is kinda like a treasure box full of goodies you sample and then you review on your social media about.<br />
<br />
Description of a Vox Box from the Influenster Website:<br />
<br />
<h3 class="gbold color" style="color: #b0317b; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue'; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
What's a VoxBox?</h3>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px;">
It's a reward you might get for being a great Influenster. Too vague? OK fine, it's a box filled to the brim with the hottest products that interest you. Paying attention now?</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px;">
<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Here's how it works: </strong>Influensters are selected for FREE themed product shipments based on the Expert Badges they have unlocked and based on individual demographics. This ensures members receive products that match their interests.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px;">
Members with high scores -- within the specific badge we are targeting at the time -- are prioritized, which is all the more reason to get your Influenster and Expert Badge scores high.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #444444; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px;">
You guys Influenster is a free site to join you will have to wait for the invite after you sign up. It took me all of 30 minutes to receive after I did sign up. If you are a blogger or very into social media you have the power to be an influence. You also get to let lots of other find out about great products! So what are you waiting for go check it out! </div>

<br />
Happy Memorial Day! Today is a day where we remember all soldiers who have died while serving. These soldiers sacrificed their lives to keep our country safe. I have never known any soldiers who have died in battle. Both of my grandfathers were in WWII and escaped with a few bullet wounds but they made it back home. To everyone who have lost friends and loved ones my prayers are with you all.<br />
<br />
Memorial Day is the start of Summer (not officially). Kids just getting out of school, pools opening, and the scent of neighbors bbq grills being lit.<br />
<br />
Every year my family has always got together for a great bbq. We actually had ours yesterday, so today I have nothing but cleaning and later, shopping to do!<br />
<br />
I hope all of you get to enjoy a day of grillin', grubbin' fishin' and swimming today. Pick up some sparklers for the kiddos and set off some fireworks! Have an awesome relaxin' day. Remember to stay safe and no drinkin' and drivin'.<br />
<br />
At 3:00pm it's National Moment of Remembrance. Please take 1 minute out wherever you are, for a moment of silence for all our fallen heroes and their families!<br />

My Wedding Dress!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Hey y'all! I've been a busy little bee lately. I'm here now but bare with me for the next 2 1/2 weeks. I will be getting married June 8th and I'm way behind schedule on everything I need to do! Not only do I have a wedding to plan for, I'm on a weigh-loss program with my OB-GYN which mean appointments, I also have my son's birthday to plan for and have been swamp by end of the school year functions.<br />
<br />
I have had the "great idea" of a DIY wedding and it's a little more difficult than others let you know! For one I have been using a lot of ribbon and lace and I have cleaned the shelves of all three Wal-Marts in my area. I seem to be at the store way more than I am doing anything. I have tried 4 different glues for glass and I have decided the old ball and chain hot glue gun is the best to get fabrics to stick to the glass!<br />
<br />
I just want to help prepare others with what really goes on with DIY weddings. I would make sure you have more than 2 months to plan and do crafts. Always have a helper, my sister Lori has been helping me a lot and I feel like we might need more people in the assembly line to help! Never be afraid to ask for help!<br />
If you have children especially small children like myself it's a little harder. My kids love seeing all the crafting materials being used and think they should help. If only they were old enough. Their helping consist of taking everything I need and sneaking off to hide it all over the house!<br />
Do everything yourself saves you a lot of money, but takes a whole lot of time. My best friend is Pinterest It's the best with ideas and crafts. If you have a wedding theme like myself which is country then just put that in the Pinterest search bar and if you have no clue, just enter wedding ideas in the search bar. You will have so many ideas pop up and then you can make your wedding board to pin everything you like.<br />
<br />
Another great site is MarthaStewartWeddings.com. This website has planning tools, recipes, crafting ideas even has honeymoon location tips.<br />

<br />
For any of you in search of bridesmaid dresses, think about going to department stores. I ended up getting my dresses at Sears. If you are lucky enough to have your wedding towards the end of May, that is also right after prom season! I ended up getting great dress originally $58 for $28. Plus my shoes originally $50 for only $25<br />

Hey y'all! I just posted a post my sister has on her blog. She told me about this today and if I can help bring awareness to their situation I will do all I can. This story has really hurt my heart. The couple Lauren and Nick are from Fayette County Ga.. They are going through a very difficult time in their life. Lauren is pregnant with their little boy Ethan. They have found out their little angel Ethan will not be able to live outside of the womb because of a condition called Anencephaly. These parents are preparing funeral arrangements for their precious little baby and need all the help they can get for the expenses. They have raised $4,855.00. All they are asking for is a total of $6,000.00. So please find in your hearts to donate any amount to raise the $1,145 that remains. I believe in my readers, that is why I have done this. I think we can help these parents raise the money they need. I couldn't imagine going through such a painful experience. My heart and prayers are with them. Please spread the word to get their message out! If you can't donate any money, please pray for this family for the strength they will need and continue to spread the word where someone will donate.<br />
