Happy Feet

Wednesday, July 30, 2008
On Tuesday KC and I decided after a busy day of shopping in Allen and Frisco that we needed some relaxing quiet time...so we got pedicures!! I had the deluxe pedicure where they put your foot in wax and yes, it's nice but really really hot!! My feet are now gorgeous!!

KC and I at the Deluxe Nail Salon...somehow we ended up matching
both wearing white shorts and green tops! Great minds think alike!
I had to post this picture of my apartment because I bought the lamp from IKEA and put it together all by myself!! I am so proud and my apartment is beginning to look more and more like a comfortable place to be. Oh and I did make dinner for Ross and I the other night chicken and green beans which are his favorite...I forgot the bread so he was a little sad but I will not forget that for next time!

Cooking with Rachael Ray

Sunday, July 27, 2008
Ok...so recently I have been addicted to the Rachael Ray show. When I work late or have off days I head to the gym by 9 am so I can watch her show while I run. I enjoy watching her cook and all her friends who give beauty tips and also the cute guy who brings in the animals. She made these amazing enchiladas the other day with less than 10 ingredients and I plan on making them in the near to present future! Also, she gave great tips on how to prepare chicken so in the freezer I have 2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts with salt and pepper, e-voo, and garlic and herb seasoning marinating ready for the oven this week for an excellent meal practically already prepared! I am interested in cooking but it may take a while before I actually get in the kitchen and start cooking...

Pool Time

Spending quality time with Kinley and Chance

while kc was was away I took the twins for a walk and fed them
an amazing breakfast of cheerios and bananas!! Their t-shirts say
"If you think I'm cute you should see my Aunt" (kinley) and "I'd rather be
hanging with my Aunt" (chance) ...they are the best kids ever!! Once KC
got back we headed to the pool for a very eventful afternoon!

They both loved the water shooting up out of the ground!
KC and Chance are big Florida Gator fans!!

Family vacation for an entire week in South Padre with the whole gang! We suntanned all day and watched bridal shows, hgtv, tlc, of home and garden if we were not in the sun..that's mom and i. The boys enjoyed fishing and sleeping for the most part. Everyday we tried a new seafood place and had the best calamari at Blackbeard's. It was a wonderful vacation in the sun and a lot of great family laughs and talks along the way. I can't wait to see the beach again...

I just couldn't resist...Tyler and I drove down the day after mom dad so this is what I enjoyed watching....love ya tyler

My Day OFF

Tuesday, July 1, 2008
Tuesdays are generally my day off and today I am spending it with Ross. I am about to go on vacation on Saturday so we are spending quality time together. We've eaten a whole bag of Jalapeno chips but we did walk to the pool so we burned some extra calories there!

Enjoying the pool and watching the Sopranos on DVD. Tonight is Hell's Kitchen night with my Dad! He's cooking dinner and we are seeing who wins Hell's Kitchen and I am cheering for Christina!!

4 days until I am relaxing on the beach and reading my favorite authors!! I can't hardly wait!
