The Election

I am not by any means a deep-thinking, eloquent-speaking person, but here are my simple thoughts on the election...

Well, it's all over now. Barack Obama will be our next President of the United States of America. How do I feel about that? Just fine. Who did I vote for? Not saying. I'm just glad that I got to be part of such a historical election, especially as my first presidential election to take part in. But really, it does not matter who I voted for. All that matters is that God is in full control and, as a Christian, I will fully support Barack Obama as our new President and will continually pray for him and our country. And that's all I know about that.

My first nephew!!

My handsome, handsome nephew made it into the world at 8:03 am on October 31st. He weighed 7 lbs., 0 oz. and was 20" long. I completely adore him, of course! It is so fun to see my brother and sister-in-law continually growing in their family.

Project 365 #38

October 24th - Notice the hose running all the way from our front door into the bedroom closest. This began the 3+ hour process of fixing our leaking water heater, which just resulted in the entire thing being replaced.

October 25th - Robby and Chelsea's wedding.

October 26th - Ice cream always makes everything better.

October 27th - Chelsi was watching this girl and she wanted to iChat with me, and then asked to be my picture of the day. *lol*

October 28th - Chili for dinner, inspired by the great Danna Townsdin. (And I later found out my mom had chili for dinner the same night, which was also inspired by Danna! *lol*)

October 29th - Made up my schedule for my very last semester of school, ever. Yay!!

October 30th - New favorite flavor of gum.

Project 365 #37

October 17th - New Breast Cancer Awareness mug!

October 18th - Mike really likes the case that his "Iron Man" blu-ray came in.

October 19th - I just love Bath and Body Works soap!

October 20th - So Mike has this clock that he just recently setup that projects the time on the ceiling (or wall, or floor...wherever you want it.) It is currently on our ceiling and honestly, kinda freaks me out. haha! And yes, for some reason, we were up at 2:41 in the morning.

October 21st - Just grocery shoppin'.

October 22nd - So this is a restaurant that Mike has been wanting to try out for a really long time. We didn't really know anything about it, it just looked nice. Well, it turns out it was simply a cafeteria style buffet, and I think we were the youngest people in there by at least 20 years. haha!

October 23rd - Yes, that's right, I gave in. Everyone else was reading it! I just had to give it a shot.

Project 365 #36

October 10th - The pumpkin that Mike had his "little brother" carve for us.

October 11th - This was much needed therapy that week!

October 12th - Came into Tulsa for the weekend and got to hangout with my brother for a couple of hours at his work. It was really nice.

October 13th - Delicious fundraiser cookie dough! But I have learned that it is way too dangerous (and easy) for me to have pre-made cookie dough just sitting in my fridge... haha!

October 14th - My new favorite line of yogurt! There's many different "flavors" like Calm, Refresh, Energize, etc. I love them!

October 15th - For some reason I got some address labels in the mail from the Susan G. Komen foundation. Even though they're the wrong last name and wrong address, I will still be using them because they're just way too cute! haha!

October 16th - This is a new game on my phone that I can't stop playing. It is called Double Klondike and when you win all the clubs, hearts, etc. pop off the cards to spell out words. This time it was my name and I got really excited! haha!

Project 365 #35

October 3rd - I got this bracelet at On The Border the last time we ate there for making a donation to the Susan G. Komen foundation.

October 4th - And this is why I love working at the Disney Store...because if I'd like, I can wear a princess crown while I work!

October 5th - Breast Cancer Awareness Tic-Tacs!

October 6th - I just love this spray for my sheets!

October 7th - Mike and I were needing some good-sized dishes that we could use in the microwave. We realized we still had a Bed Bath & Beyond gift card from the wedding, so we found this there for only $20!

October 8th - I just love my fall leaves on the wall.

October 9th - This week was Greek Week at OC and this is a 500 jigsaw puzzle that Mike had his "little brother" put together. It took him about three days. *lol*
