this has been the week from hell & i just found out that my mom won't be backuntil march 9th!! wtf??!!?! so, as the boss I've made an executive decision that i'm closing everyday at 3pm. so there! in other news, mike is working like a madman on his last semester of school- i'm proud of him! And, I'm dealing with bridesmaid dresses and what-not. Oh yeah... we do have something to look forward to: COLDPLAY on Monday!!! Fiona Apple is opening (i luv her) & we have floor tickets!!!!! Woohooo!!

have a good weekend people

No time for blogging!!

Blogging will be pretty much non-existant this week for me. My mom is in Reno on vacation this week, which means I get to run the office all by myself!! (not fun!!) I'm not used to actually having to answer the phones, deal with customers etc etc all day long...so this basically sucks. I haven't even been to pinkisthenewblog.com today! HELP!!!!!!!!!

My Baby Brother

Connor refused to take "normal" senior pictures...but my mom kept bugging him, so he had a friend take these a few days ago. I love them!!

Stud Muffin

Here are a few pictures of our "little" Blackie wearing his Valentine's shirt... yep it says "Stud Muffin"!! Love it!!

 

 

Happy V-Day People!

I know some of you think Valentine's Day is too commercial, but in the spirit of the holiday I thought I'd share 2 beautiful love stories. If you haven't already seen these, you should watch!!

Have a great day!

Yum!

These are sooo good:

So i said i would update...but i don't have anything interesting to say. Mike & I had a nice relaxing weekend- we rented a crappy movie last night-Dark Water (don't watch it!!). Everything else is great-- my bridesmaids & I are picking out their dresses this week- I'm excited!!

Boring Wednesday....

so, i felt the need to update, just because i haven't in a while...but i really have nothing interesting to say! Lost is on tonight (i'm excited!). Mike is glad there's a show on tv that he actually enjoys (he hates all my favorites: american idol, survivor, dancing w/ the stars etc).

i thought i'd share our cute little tree that my mom & i always decorate for all the holidays in our office-- we decided to do little red heart ornaments for V-day. Thats all I've got!!

 

Soooo Cute!

I want to go find this little boy & steal him- he's adorable!! if you're bored, watch this:

Fun Times

These are pics from last weekend. We went to the hockey game (me & Mike & Connor & Jeremiah). We had a great time- the Oilers won, but sadly there were no big brawls.

here's Connor & I --he's got crazy eyes in this one!

Mike & Jeremiah

Connor making sweet love to his straw- gotta love my little brother

there aren't enough hours in the day...

i haven't been updating much lately...i've been too busy! as i said before, we're doing the south beach diet, which means we have to cook every day, no fast food or pre-packaged anything- so that takes a lot of time. we're working out 6 days a week @ 6am, which means we have to go to bed at like 10:30 every night...ugh. But, on the bright side, phase one ends on Sunday!!! thank the Lord!!

Highlight Of My Day!

if you're bored, this is AMAZING:

Phase One...

So, Mike & I have almost made it through our first week on the South Beach diet. We've been getting up every morning at 6am, going to the gym & alternating strength training & cardio workouts. So, I should feel great...right?? Ugh, I don't!! Don't get me wrong- I really like the working out--it feels great to get back in the gym (and it feels great to do it on my own & not have an evil college softball coach "making" me do it!). What's killing me is the Phase One of South Beach. During Phase one, you can't have any breads, pastas, starches or fruit. I miss my fruit!!! I want orange juice! I want a damn banana!! Luckily, phase one only lasts 2 weeks- then you can add back the good stuff- fruit, whole grain breads, oatmeal, dark chocolate etc. I hope i can make it that long!!

P.S.-- Hi to Brooke, I drove behind you this morning on 21st Street---all the way onto the highway!

Best Weekend Ever!

a pic of us before dinner on Friday:


We celebrated our anniversary on Friday & it was perfect! Mike surprised me with dinner at Bodeans (alaskan king crab, amazing chocolate mousse & our favorite Pinot Grigio). Then we went to the Doubletree for the "romance package" (lol). We got an amazing room with a really pretty view, they brought a bottle of wine to the room & breakfast in bed in the morning!! It was a wonderful way to celebrate our first year together!!

 

Special Delivery...

I just got these gorgeous flowers deliverd to my office for our anniversary! The picture doesn't do them justice! Its a mixture of roses, lillies, lavender, daisies etc... I love it!! Happy Anniversary Mike!!! Love ya!!!

 

R.I.P.: Charlie Murphy

Charlie Murphy passed away a few days ago. We only knew him for a brief time, but we couldn't have asked for a better mouse. Rick James is still alive & is dealing with his grief quite well.

In other news, Mike & I have been very busy with work/school/wedding etc.Tonight is our anniversary, yay!!

Have a great weekend, please keep Rick James in your thoughts & prayers!!

Sort-of-a wedding post...

we found a chapel!! We went yesterday & looked at Kirkland Chapel (I'd never heard of it, but my mom wanted us to go look at it). Its right by Oaks Country Club & its soooo pretty!! I've got pics on our wedding blog. Go look!

In other news, Mike & I over slept this morning & didn't make it to the gym, boo! I've got to buy us a louder alarm clock!

Oh yeah, I'm loving the snow outside!! Yay for winter weather!!

Fun Weekend!!

we had a great weekend (even with the wedding shows!). Okay, so the wedding shows were kinda crazy... um, half the girls there weren't even engaged (how creepy) and the other half were like 17 years old (yay for Oklahoma!). We met some good vendors, we're still looking for a photographer & a limo service. We're going to go to Ann's Bakery & try some cakes, yum! Below is a pic of the wedding show nonsense:

Mike was such a good sport, that I took him out Saturday night to the hockey game. We LOVED it!! It wasn't nearly as cool as the NHL game we went to, but there were more fights! We had seats right next to the ice, ate some fun hockey food & are planning on going again next weekend.

Hockey pics:

Some of the fans were psycho-- you can tell they never miss a game!

This afternoon we're going to take a tour of a possibility for the wedding chapel. I'm less than thrilled with the customer service from Sharp Chapel, so we're on the prowl for a better one!!

TGIF!!!

ahhh, the weekend!! I am sooo ready to be away from work for a few days. I "suggested" to Mike that he should hang out w/ Jeremiah tonight so that I can catch up on my very necessary dvr watching-- I have some Project Runway, some Real World-Road Rules Gauntlet 2 and Meet the Barkers to watch!! ( high quality tv, right?). Saturday afternoon, I'm dragging Mike to a wedding show ( he's sooo excited) and Saturday night we're contemplating going to the Tulsa Oilers hockey game. Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Our First Piece of Art!!

this is the beautiful, meaningful, thoughtful painting that I gave Mike for Christmas. I commissioned an original piece of art from Brooke!

I'll do my best to explain some of the symbolism: Mike is the man in the painting, playing chess (he loves chess!), he's touching the queen (me- I love getting to be the queen!!) and...my favorite part:notice the two knight pieces at the bottom corners-- those symbolize Brooke & Paul "Knight"!!

I know Brooke could do a much more "artistic" explanation, but the point is--- we LOVE it!!!!!

Brooke, I can't tell you how much we love it & how much it means to us. This is something that will be hanging in our home when we're old & wrinkled!! We love what you did--this is the first of many peices of art we hope you'll do for us!!!

Goodbye 2005

this is the last post of 2005. Mike is out buying beer for himself & orange juice for me. I'm still sick, boo!! Mike's dad came over on Thursday night & wrote me a prescription (ahh the benefits of my future father-in-law being a dr.!!) But, I'm still under the weather.

2005 has been an amazing year-we got engaged, traveled to some great places & moved in together... and 2006 will be the best, we'll be married!!

Happy New Year everybody!!

Post-Christmas Blues...

Christmas was fun & hectic- we both had so much fun! But now, I'm sick, the house needs to be cleaned, the tree needs to be taken down & I have zero motivation...blah.

p.s.- whats the deal with new years eve? I'm trying to talk mike into hibernating in our home & not doing a damn thing, b/c i'm a party pooper like that. what is everyone else doing??

p.s. again: mike & i are the proud owners of cute little ipod shuffles (he got me on for x-mas, but I could see his ipod envy, so I got him one yesterday!) - we love them & can't wait to use them at our gym that we keep neglecting!!

Happy Birthday Mike!!!!!!

3RD GRADE BASKETBALL STUD!!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband-to-be!! Hope its the best day ever!!!

p.s.- Tulsa people- we're having people over tonight- call Mike for details!!

Yay For An Early Christmas Present!!!

Mike insisted on us each opening one gift last night-- I got a new phone. We are officially on a "family plan". I got the red one! Mike was adorable & bought me the gaudy Paris Hilton-esque faceplates (one is pink & one is black & they are covered by swarovski crystals- too cute!!

Tonight is sushi w/ Mike's dad & stepmom for his b-day & I have to finish cleaning & wrapping gifts. Mike's brother Rob comes in town tomorrow- so we'll have a houseguest for a few days. Look for Mike's birthday post tomorrow- he'll be 27!!!

Christmas Babies!!!

We were at Petco last night & Mike decided we needed a few more animals in our zoo (we already have ellie, blackie, jinxy & smokie!!) So our newest editions are our MICE!!

I know mice sound nasty & creepy- but they are precious!! It was an early Christmas present to ourselves...

Introducing... Rick James & Charlie Murphy!!! Rick James is the tan one with the long hair & Charlie Murphy is the little white one.

The babies, cuddling with each other.

Charlie Murphy LOVES his wheel! By the way, the brown pellet thingys are their food- looks like poo!

Their adorable little cage- too cute. Now, we just have to make sure the cats don't eat them!!! hahahaha

Shopping Way Too Much!

Christmas shopping is going really well. Normally by this time I have all the gifts purchased & wrapped under the tree, but Mike's slacker attitude is rubbing off on me!! I got a ton of shopping done last night with my mom & Mike & I will finish it up this weekend. I LOVE finding the perfect thing to get someone. If I ever become insanely wealthy- I'm gonna have so much fun shopping for my friends & family (& myself, of course!!)

boo its monday

yuck its monday, stephanie didn't win survivor last night & work is crazy busy...no fun!!!

World's Ugliest Dog...

Sam, crowned the 'World's Ugliest Dog' for three years in a row at the Sonoma-Marin Fair, is shown in Santa Barbara, Calif., on June 28, 2005. The pooch with the hairless body, crooked teeth and sparse tuft of hair atop his knobby head died Friday, Nov. 18, 2005, just short of his 15th birthday, according to his owner, Susie Lockheed.

Walk The Line...

I loved this! My brother Connor & I went to see Walk the Line tonight & were amazed. Joaquin Phoenix completely became Johnny Cash. The singing was unreal! Go see it!!

Go Rent This!!

Mike & I rented this from Blockbuster & loved it! If you haven't heard of it, this guy Brian has had a crush on Drew Barrymore since he was 6 years old & decides to make a documentary about his quest to get a date with Drew... its truly adorable, Drew is one of my favorite celebrities & this thing is so darn cute!!

Our Black Babies...

Mike just took this pic with his camera phone & emailed it to me ( i love technology!). These are our three little black babies all sleeping together on the couch! Jinxy is the first black ball of fur on the left, then Blackie and then Ms. Ellie of course on the right. How cute!!
