Happy Birthday Lindsey!!!

Happy Birthday to my one day younger friend, Lindsey!!

Happy Birthday to you!! Happy Birthday to you!! Happy Birthday Dear Lindsey!! Happy Birthday to you!!

Yes, I know. Another picture from my wedding, but I can't help it!! I just LOVE all the pictures and since my computer is still messed up I have to go online and use pictures that I have posted to facebook or myspace.

Happy Birthday Grandpa!!

Today my Grandpa Wise and I share the same birthday!! I remember the story that everyone tells about our shared birthday. My Grandpa told my mom if I was born on March 12 that he would give me $100. Well, I wasn't supposed to be born on March 12, but Mom had a C-section and told the Dr that I had to be born on March 12 because she had money on it. I can guarantee you I still have that $100 too!

Happy Birthday Gramps!! I love you!

Hello from Kansas City!

Hello All! I hope you all had a good weekend. I didn't do too much. Friday I just hung out and Saturday I went shopping and got some new clothes for my trip!! :)

Do any of you have phobias of hotels? As I have gotten older I get creeped out about them more and more. I inspect the sheets, don't like to walk around barefoot, think I need to wash my hands after touching the nasty remote.... the list goes on. So, I inspected the sheets and the bed farthest away from the door had a stain on them. I'm not really sure what kind of stain it was, nor do I want to know. There was also a hair! EEK! So it was the bed closest to the door and closest to the boogy man. Then, while I was taking my shower the shower decided not to drain. Yucky! I can't even talk about it, it was so gross!

Any who.... class is at 8 and the shuttle will be here at 7:40 to pick us up. Off to breakfast!

Bon Voyage

I'm sure you are all wondering how the peanut butter cookie throw down went. Well, I don't really have a whole lot to say about it... I'm the sorest loser in the world. Coincidentally, Dad made the same type of cookie I did, it was pretty funny! I definitely won presentation. I had two entries but the 'judges' only judged the one that was like Dad's.

Tomorrow I'm going out of town for work to Kansas City, MO and come back Wednesday evening. I will be attending one of our vendor's training class to learn about vaccines, drugs, and flea & heartworm preventative. It will be long and probably not too exciting, but hopefully I will learn some good stuff. This will be the very first time Drew & I have not slept in the same bed since we've been married. I bet Drew will be glad to have the bed to himself. Who knows, the dogs will probably end up in bed. I wonder how he is going to handle it with the dogs?? They are going to expect to eat by 6am and 6pm, Hobie will probably want his walk, play frisbee, Cuddles will need her daily belly rub. Those puppies sure are going to miss their momma! I'm going to try to make Drew a casserole or something he can eat on for a few days tomorrow before I leave. Do you think the house will be in one piece when I get back? I'm scared!! LOL

I'm taking the laptop with me. I can't be away from all my bloggy friends for that long!!

Thank You!

Drew VS Kelsie

♥ What are your middle names? Marie and John
♥ How long have you been together? Married for 1 year on April 19 but were together 2 1/2 years before we got married
♥ How long did you know each other before you started dating? Maybe a couple of weeks.. HA!

♥ Who asked whom out? Well we had agreed to go out together with a bunch of friends for New Year's Eve, but I think I remember him calling me to say he was in the area hinting he wanted to come over. I told him to come over but he said no... 15 minutes later he called and said "ok, I'll come over."

♥ How old are each of you? I am 24 going to be 25 on March 12 and Drew is 25 and will be 26 on March 16!!

♥ Whose siblings do/did you see the most? They all live in the area so it isn't too hard to see any of them. I would say we see Jake, Drew's brother, the least.
♥ Do you have any children together? No not yet
♥ What about pets? 2 dogs that are almost like kids. Hobie the Australian Shepherd (our first born) and Cuddles the Miniature Dachshund (our adopted child)

♥ Did you go to the same school? No, we went to rival high schools!
♥ Are you from the same home town? Yes... Dentonites
♥ Who is the smartest? It depends. I am the English/Science person and Drew is the Math/History person. Overall, I would say Drew.

♥ Who is more sensitive? Me, definitely me! Drew does have a sensitive side.
♥ Where do you eat out most as a couple? Anywhere Mexican.
♥ Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple? Durango, CO.
♥ Who has the craziest exes? I don't really know any of his and he doesn't know mine. I guess neither.
♥ Who has the worst temper? I get upset easily and Drew is more easy going. However, if you do get going he starts shouting (partly b/c he is deaf in one ear and doesn't realize it). I have to tell him to tone it down! LOL

♥ Who does the cooking? Mostly me. Drew is my grill boy! :)

♥ Who is more social? Drew could talk to brick wall, he gets that from his dad. I can be social too, but I know when to shut up. LOL
♥ Who is the neat-freak? I wouldn't say I am a neat-freak, but I do like order and don't like a pig sty. Drew on the other hand could live in filth. He's a guy. I obviously haven't trained him.

♥ Who is more stubborn? Me for sure. I'm so hard headed its not funny!
♥ Who hogs the bed? We would both say each other does. If anything I am the cover hog!

♥ Who wakes up earlier? Me every day of the week. I get up at 5:15 for work. Drew loves his sleep, I don't think he has ever gotten up before me. Unfortunately, I am a Stoy and don't sleep in.

♥ Where was your first date? Our first REAL date we went out to eat at Esparza's and went to see "Walk the Line." Drew didn't bring flowers for our first date, he bought me a pair of pink Crocs, in each size b/c he wasn't sure of my shoe size. How sweet!
♥ Who has the bigger family? I think Drew, I can barely keep track.

♥ Do you get flowers often? Every once in a while. I haven't in a while. Drew tried for Valentine's...

♥ How do you spend the holidays? We go back and forth between both of our families. Luckily both of our immediate families live close so it's not too hard, but I don't have any extended family in Texas. :(

♥ Who is more jealous? Jealous of what? Neither I would say.
♥ How long did it take to get serious? Not very long. I remember we hadn't been dating very long and he was telling me that he was talking to someone at his work about me and referred to me as his girlfriend. Drew said "that is ok isn't it?"

♥ Who eats more? Drew could eat me out of house and home! Just ask him about the time I made shrimp tacos... one for each of us. Isn't that enough?

♥ Who does/did the laundry? I do the laundry. Occasionally he will do a load if I tell him to put it in the washer.. don't expect him to fold it. That is ok w/ me because I don't mow the lawn!
♥ Who’s better with the computer? Drew
♥ Who drives when you are together? Since I have the better car we always drive my car. I try to do most of the diving b/c I don't like Drew to move my seat. When he moves my seat it turns the air bag light on and it scares me! I do prefer him to drive most of the time though. He is a good driver!

My, oh my....

Did you watch the Bachelor last night? I can't tell you how disappointed and mad and everything else I was feeling about the show last night. I can't believe how ABC/Jason would humiliate Melissa on national TV like that. So for those of you that don't watch, let me give you a quick run down. Jason is down to the top 2 girls, Melissa and Molly. Jason sends Molly home, picks Melissa, proposes to her and you think they are going to live happily ever after. Then there is the after the rose ceremony show... Jason BREAKS UP with Melissa on national TV (totally blindsided her, even though he said she knew he didn't feel the same anymore). Gosh Jason, have some class!! Melissa is very angry gives the ring back says "don't call me, don't text me, leave me alone!" Then, out comes Molly, Jason tells her that he is still in love with her and he would like to go out for "coffee or a drink and see where it goes" WHAT???? Molly looks confused not sure but says she still has feelings for him too and they start making out!!!!!! So trashy! I was listening to the radio this morning and they were saying how staged it was. I agree, there were moments you could tell that it was totally staged, but I don't think Melissa saw it coming and she was really hurt. I think that part was real. I feel so bad for Melissa, but she doesn't need that kind of guy and can do so much better. I hope she finds someone who will be good to her. Oh and Melissa had a point, she said that he took that special proposal away from her and that was a once in a life time thing.... GRRR I can't imagine what she is feeling.

Oh and to make my day better.... my dentist just called to tell me I missed my dentist appointment at 7:30am. I completely forgot!! I feel so bad, they called to remind me yesterday but I was so busy at work it never really sunk in. I hope I don't get charged a fee for not showing up!! Now they can't get me in until June. Oh well, my fault.
