Always, Sometimes, Never...





I Always...

have my toenails painted

take my make-up off before going to bed

want to try new recipes, but rarely do

love anything coconut

think I am going to get pulled over ever time I pass a cop

see room for improvement in everything

plan I can do more than I really have time for

want a dessert

think the book was better than the movie

save the cork from any bottle of wine we drink

want to crawl back into bed with Heath in the morning and say "screw work"

I Sometimes...

don't get out of my pajamas until 3 or 4 in the afternoon on my day off

wish I had more girl friends

miss Texas like crazy

want to drink beer, even though I don't really like it

think what was I doing this time...last week, last month, last year

hope my husband has a surprise for me

am so tired all I can do is cry

get grouchy when I am hungry

feel guilty for not going to church

wish brides will trip going down the aisle (if they have been really mean to me)

I Never...

want to see my ex-husband again

back down if I know I am right

throw up from drinking to much

have a day pass that I don't think about being a mommy

send birthday cards or gifts out on time

can seem to keep plants alive, even though I really want too

get tired of dancing with Heath

have the laundry caught up

watch that sad commercial about animal abuse

want to be without my husband

How About You?

Take Me Out to the Ball game!

It only took 7 years for us to cross this to do off our list....


Go to a Braves Game

Take me out to the ball game,

Take me out with the crowd.

Buy me some peanuts and cracker jack,

I don't care if I never get back,



Let me root, root, root for the home team,


If they don't win it's a shame.


For it's one, two, three strikes, you're out,













At The Old Ball Game!

See Jack Fish!

Whenever we are in Nashville we always go out on Tom's boat. Last year was Jackson's first year to go and we found out he LOVES to fish! So this year I was armed with my video camera. It is too funny. The first video is Heath reeling in a fish and this happens every time he catches one. Jackson whines until he catches one and then this....

*please excuse my husbands language, he didn't know I was filming*

Look at that little tail waggin'!

Once we catch a fish, we put it in a bucket. We have to watch Jack constantly or he will wind up in the bucket too! Take a look!

This could go on for hours. Your always good for a laugh Jack!

Cupcake Heaven!

I have alot of catching up to do, but I was so excited about this post I had to go ahead and do it. I will play catch up later!


Sooo, with that said. This past weekend we were in Nashville visiting Heath's dad. On Sunday, we were driving around downtown, Heath was showing me around. We stopped at a red light and simultaneously looked to our left. I think light was shinning down from heaven onto this cute little building... Gigi's Cup Cakes! Heath immediately pulled across two lanes of traffic into their parking lot. (What can I say? He knows how much I love desserts!) We are ready to jump out of the car only to see the closed sign on the door. We stood there looking in the window drooling over their cupcakes menu. Ahh, such disappointment.

We spent the rest of the day debating on whether we should drive back 20 minutes in the opposite direction before heading out of town the next morning. We finally decided we could possible be missing out on the best cupcakes of our lives! So the next day we headed back downtown before we left Nashville. Thank goodness we did!

When we got there it was even better than I had imagined! Plus, it smelled so good. I was so excited. Yes, people I get very excited over food, just ask Heath! Here is what we saw when we walked in....
How cute are these cupcakes!?!

Their flavors were, to say the least, AMAZING!!! They had approximately 15 flavors made but, there were about 30 different ones you could order. I could not decide what I wanted. Then after some debate with Heath, I finally got two because I couldn't decide and Heath got one. They came in a cute little Gigi's Box. I wanted to to eat them right then but it was 10 AM after all!

Our final selections were...

Red Raspberry Chocolate - a rich dark chocolate with raspberry filling, raspberry flavored icing with chocolate drizzle and a cute chocolate heart.

Texas Chocolate Milkshake - milk chocolate cake with milk chocolate frosting, chocolate sprinkles and a lone star on top. and last but not least...
Margarita Madness - I don't know what flavor this cake is...lime maybe? with a margarita flavored icing, a sugared edge and a tiny sugared lime on top. This one is pure brilliance...cupcakes and margarita's who would have thought! (I loved this one, Heath did not)

We have spent the last three nights eating cupcakes. They are so sweet we have to split them. I cannot even begin to tell you how amazing they taste. They are out of this world! I am a little sad I don't have one to eat tonight. Next time we are in Nashville we WILL be stopping!
