These ARE a few of my favorite things

1. I love love love this mirror. It has so much potential. I long for the day when I paint the frame a different color. Here it sits against the wall in the garage. Staring at me. I pass it 6 times a day. It's begging to be loved. The garage. What a horrible place to park a lovely mirror I care so deeply for.

2. The Jumper cables. These bad boys came in handy last Friday. One of my proudest moments. My battery died. I then popped the hood and jumped the car myself. First, I had to channel the 17 year old version of myself that rolled my eyes at John when he tried to teach me. I never thought I'd actually have to call upon my jumping skills. Are you proud John? Cause you should be. Lets just hope none of my tires fall off. Sorry to say but I really stopped paying attention when we got to the 'how to put on the spare' lesson. So boring.

3. Last, but surely not least. I ADORE these shoes. I don't even know why. They were like 20 bones at Target. In fact the more I ponder on my adoration of these lovely flats I really have to question my fondness for them. It was these very shoes that almost cost me my life at Natalie's baby shower. That night when I was putting them on I said to myself 'Krystle these shoes will be the death of you tonight'. Boy did I call that one. I practically broke my tailbone due to their lack of traction. How awkward. Luckily my charming and 8 month pregnant sister was there to catch me. Thanks for always having my back Nat. I still cherish them crazy shoes though. I guess they brought me luck the night I had to jump my ride.

Lookin Good..........

Why do I call him Mr. Johnson? Let me tell you. First off this precious gem of a man used to teach the 4th grade. In fact that's how we met. He taught at the same school my cousins still proudly attend.

When Mr. J called to ask me out my cousin Bryton could not believe I would be kickin it with the coolest teacher around. In fact I had to play his message for her just to prove it. Thats how my family is. We like proof. Cold hard facts. There it was on my voicemail.

After I replayed the message for her several times she decided to confess something about this amazingly talented 4th grade teacher (who I know proudly call my husband).

"Krystle, if you're going to go out with him there is something you should know. At recess Mr. Johnson throws the football so far."

And then we laughed and laughed. And seriously he does throw a football so far.

Family Pictures Round 1............

To my FABULOUS second mother Stacey.....I searched and searched through this batch of pictures and found none I liked of myself and Corey. It's pretty pathetic that seperately we can both take good pictures but as soon as we step into a frame together something magically awful happens. We take horrible pictures. I am seriously leaving it up to dad when you guys are here to take a great picture of us. We have yet to take one. Do you think he is up for the challenge?

P.s. I love Bryton's face in the Grandkids picture. She looks like she is up to no good. Nobody judge us because we all have our eyes closed. The sun was blazing in our faces.

Garage Sale Part 2......

Garage Sale..............

I swear I am the only one who actually did any work at the garage sale. Seriously.

Bryton you worked really really hard. You deserved that nap.
