12 Days.

I Know I already posted about Christmas, BUT I'm just so excited! Only 12 days! & only 9 days til I go home! Whoo!

The time when laughing made me feel bad...

I could NOT control my laughter...

Let me set up the scene for you.

My favorite 25 minutes at work is when I get to go into one of the 1st grade classrooms. They are the cutest darn kids ever. It has made me want to be an elementary teacher so much more. Right now they are writing stories about going to the North Pole and how they are going to get there. Super cute.

 I sit in the back of the classroom and if they need help they come see me. Well, i'm sitting there, helping Ashtyn spell "Rudolph" when I hear THE biggest fart, toot, stinker, farfignoogin, flatulent, gas bubble. (You get the point.) And trust me, my family has no shame in letting them out, no matter how big or small, so I know big farts. This one blew me out of the water...literally. Of course, instinct was to look right into the direction of the perpetrator and to start laughing. (Why are farts so funny? I ask myself that question often. haha) There me and Ashtyn are, completely baffled by what we just heard. Me: trying not to laugh. Ashtyn: laughing her head off, pointing and asking, "What was that?" As i'm trying to hold in my laugh, keep a straight face, and help the growing line of first graders spell christmas vocabulary, I couldn't help but look at the sweet little girl who let out such a monster. Or was it the cute little ginger boy next to her? I started to look for clues. The little girl was making fart sounds with her mouth. (Smart yet obvious technique of trying to play it off, I would've just pointed and blamed someone next to me.) But the carrot top was extremely red in the face and had his head down, practically kissing his paper. Who was it? I didn't care. My focus was just to stop laughing. (For those of you who know me, once I get going it's hard for me to stop.) The two suspects were just staring at me, along with the growing line of kids. I could NOT stop chuckling to myself! I felt bad, REALLY bad. But that didn't stop me. As i'm helping my line, I randomly start laughing and the kids look at me like i'm crazy. Luckily, my time was up and I had to go back to my good ol' computer lab. Good thing I got out of there before I made anyone cry. I will never look at those two first graders the same, BUT they did make my day so much better. So, thank you first graders, thank you.

Turkey day is over, and that means...CHRISTMAS!

Have yourself a merry little Christmas!

 

And that means only 2 more months until I get married! :D

I love me a little Country Strong

So last night I was really, really bored (Brady is in and has been in Lifetree for almost 2 weeks now) & I came across a Lonesome dvd titled "Country Strong." Little did I know, It would soon become one of my favorite movies.

Not only was it a good story, but it had a group of awesome actors/singers. Especially this hunk.

                                              
                                                           Especially without a beard!

Little by little, I was switching from my love for rap and hip hop to country music. I don't know if it was his brown cowboy hat, his country accent, or his skin tight Levi's, but I soon realized that cowboy butts now drove me nuts.

Immediately after the movie was over, and rewinding to my favorite parts of course, I busted out my laptop and started searching for all of the songs I liked. Here's my favorite. It's GOOD. I've been singing it all day at work today. I'm not a very good singer, so sorry students if you had the priviledge of hearing me!

After my illegal downlading of the music, I sat in my bed just picturing Brady as a cowboy lassoing me a cow or bull or something cool, and lets just say he looked dang GOOD! I guess it's safe to say my goal is to turn Brady into the biggest country sangin, guitar playin, Levi wearin, hunk of a cowboy. Wish me luck!

All things HARRY POTTER!

For those of you who don't know, I'm a Harry Potter junkie! I don't know where I'd be in life right now without it. (Really though...not joking.) I couldn't possibly make a list of my favorite Harry Potter things, but here's a couple of the list toppers.

            H-P movie #1. THE best. Look how ghetto it is. Love it. (I don't know why it's in spanish, i'm too lazy to go find another picture in english.)

Oh Harry Potter scene-it. So many good memories of going head to head with my sister Karlee. She was probably the only one that would play with me.  I'll never forget those screaming matches or saying "SHHHH" so many times so I can listen to every detail of the scenes. Good times.

The ORIGINAL Dumbledore. RIP to the greatest wizard that ever lived. (Besides Harry of course!)

HARRY POTTER > TWILIGHT

( I enjoy stupid humor...haha)

Bertie Bott's every flavor beans. The best and worst beans ever. Me, Coie, Nicole, Megan, Karlee and Kyle would sit in a circle and blindly pick a bean and HAVE to eat it no matter what. If you guys are reading this, do you remember that?! I usually got vomit or sardines. YUM!

WARNING: Worst kiss ever! Harry needs some practice.

What's better than Harry Potter? Harry Potter cupcakes. I love the ron one.

Speaking of Ron. WHY IS HE SO HOT?! Oh, maybs because he's a ginger.

Yep, you ARE smokin Ronald.



Hmm...I guess I have a thing for ginger babes. Cue Brady. (my soon to be hubby)

          A little Mean girls-Harry Potter humor. Love -it.com

Is anyone else surprised with how Neville Longbottom looks later in the movies? I sure am. He's kind of a babe. Kind of.

Before:

After:

HAHA! I enjoy this.

I'm Currently waiting for this game to arrive in the mail. I used to play it all day err day when I was just a kidlin. I. CAN'T. WAIT.

LOVE little kids in the Harry Potter Spirit. We got to start them young people! Who's gunna carry on all things Potter when we get old and kick the can?! (Thanks for having such a cute kid, Andrea!)

And last but not least, two of my favorite things combined. Kitty's and Harry Potter. You best believe my cat will be rockin this outfit. (As soon as Brady let's me get a cat, but I'll save that for a whole other post.)
