Easter Sunday

Today is the day that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ rose from the dead after dying on the cross for our sins! I just feel so blessed that I serve a God who is capable of all things!!! I hope you all are having a delightful Easter and enjoying the time you have with family and loved ones :)

Lewis was able to come back in town for the holiday weekend after going back out to work, which is great for us because we get to spend that much more time together! We attended early service this morning so we have just been lounging around every since then. I did a little bit of school work for my clinical and now I'm trying to figure out what I want to do with some potatoes for dinner...... I should hurry up and figure it out because it won't be long before my little bear comes out of hibernation searching for food lol.......

Just wanted to wish everyone a very lovely Happy Easter!!

Holiday love

I hope everybody had a great Christmas holiday and got/gave some good gifts! I think Lewis and I gave each other a pretty surprising Christmas this year :) I ended up getting him some lounge clothes, a guitar case that he needed and a laptop set (I'm on it right now as I type!) He got me a XBOX 360 with a Kinect (which I have been secretly lusting over for about a month lol) and this really pretty pendant necklace that I have been wearing everyday since I opened it!

 Lewis and I spent the holiday here in San Antonio this year. I could tell that he seemed a bit home sick after he talked to his mom and sister though. I knew the feeling he had;  all my family lives 5 states away and when they first moved I really felt it around the holidays.... I empathized with him but I am not entirely thrilled with spending every holiday traveling back to East TX when I don't really want to....so I hope he doesn't decide to want to do that.

We ended up opening gifts on Christmas Eve because, well, we were bored and neither one of us could hold out any longer on what we got one another. Plus, we don't have any kids so I was like "why wait?" It turned out great and will probably be our tradition from now on. I just love how we are starting our own traditions :)

I had to work the day after Christmas, but I am off until New Year's Eve! Much needed..... Time to lounge :)

Merry Christmas!

From Lewis and I....We hope everyone has a blessed Christmas Holiday!

Schools out...... for at least a little bit.

My one and only final was on this past Monday and I am glad about it! Let the winter break begin!! Uhm, I honestly really don't have much planned lol. Will probably get a few more of the big list items of the wedding knocked out while I have this time. School isn't back in session until Jan 22 so that gives me a little over a month to do some damage in wedding planning!

2 of my bridesmaids have bought their dresses ::yeas!:: and the other one will buy hers before the end of the month which will give me a chance to mark that off the list. I'm still not entirely sure if I will have a fourth bridesmaid......... still up in the air. I also need to get my hands on some really good, decently priced photographers cause we really need to take engagement photos soon- like real soon. I do not know what a good price is for a session in our area so I need to do MORE research on it.

I plan to work as much as my job will allow me to show up over the break..... I am only scheduled certain days on my particular floor but the hospital has a staffing office that you can call to pick up shifts that are available. I don't really have a need to work, but I like having my own money! Lewis doesn't mind one bit that I spend his money (and I love you for that baby) but sometimes I feel restricted in what I buy or how much I spend..... for the simple fact that it's still his money and he can question it, track it or restrict it whenever the mood strikes him. That's why I like having my own cash flow...... Independence, a habit that DIES HARD. 

We I have started Christmas shopping for everyone and still only need to buy for a few more on the list and then we will done! Feels good to beat the rush! The only person I need to personally worry about still is Lewis.... What do you get somebody who can buy whatever they want? This is always my dilemma with him. 

Are any of you guys internet shoppers? Well if you are really hardcore (like I can be sometimes when I get in one of those grooves) then you should definitely check out a site called Ebates.com. They give you cash back on your internet purchases from the stores that they have listed! Trust me, they have all the stores you can think of... and then some! If you use my link right above and sign up, they throw me a few coins so uh, don't be shy :) I love this website...... I never knew I could get paid to shop! Finally!

Guess I'm chilling for the rest of the evening....... Hope you guys have a great one!

Quick updates

Hey guys! Sorry I didn't get around to posting a  Mind Right Monday yesterday, I worked all day Sunday and yesterday and was too lazy/tired to turn my computer on at all once I made it home. 
I am going to prolly keep this post short and sweet since I'm in the process of doing 8 different things at once..... Here goes:

I'm coming to you right now from under my hair dryer- deep conditioning with Neutragena triple moisture- getting ready for our trip back to East TX for the holiday! I'm not too excited about being there for a whole 5 days, (where we will more than likely sleep on somebody's floor every night)  but we have a number of things to do while we are in town so I guess I have to make the most of the situation. We are set to leave early in the a.m so all day I have been trying to get packed up and situated. It's been kind of hard for me cause I think I got a little food poisoning last night from the Sonic we went to. I was fine when we went to sleep but around 4-ish this morning I woke up to a crazy pain in my stomach. At first I thought "Oh I just really got to go to the bathroom" but even after I did, my stomach was highly irritated. I felt miserable until about 6:30 when it my stomach decided it was time to get rid of that sh*t. I barely made into the bathroom before I was throwing up everywhere..... there goes my 6 yr vomit-free record. I felt no relief afterwards.... and then my tummy wanted to try again about an hr later. I've been very queasy every since..... I hate regurgitating.


This spur of the moment illness threw off alot the things I wanted to get done today. I wanted to rollerset my hair for the trip but I don't have the energy to deal with the rollers and I really don't trust my stomach today.... so after I rinse I'll prolly be a bad girl by blow drying my hair and more than likely flat ironing just to get the straight look. I realized that I may need a corrective relaxer cause I have under processed my hair these last two relaxers and I am not happy with it at all.

I won't be near a computer long enough to post like I want to, I will try and post some stuff while we are out of town..... Welp, guess I'll finish up my hair and crawl in bed. My tummy is starting to hurt again :/
