Not a milkbone

2010-03-31T16:25:00.001-07:00

Jordan has made these her new chew toys...

I think she knows that these aren't normal chew bones-she goes CRAZY when we give it to her & she stares at it on the shelf when she wants it...
Also-I kinda think it's lame when people are so obsessed with their dogs(unless I really know the animal)...but soon you will be reading about how obsessed we are with our new little peanut of a baby! Until then....

I should be blogging our 2010 Girls Cruisin' Trip...

2010-02-25T12:49:00.000-08:00

{BUT} I will blog this instead... J's V-Day gift to himself!

We now have wall-to-wall furniture in our apartment...

Also- I have realized that instead of making these darling pillows to decorate my couch with...I will be making something similar to this here...

Not exactly what I had in mind...but I can make it work...

Valentines Dinner ♥

2010-02-15T10:12:00.000-08:00

We had an AMAZING dinner on Valentines Day!

As you can see here, Coconut shrimp with Pina Coloda dipping sauce.

It was SO delicious! I did the "butterflying" and breading, Erika did the frying of the shrimp & wings, Tyler did the wing sauce MmMm......

This was the dinner party. Minus E & T-the parents of all those children!

The wings. Hot or Teryaki?...

Best Valentine EVER ♥ (yes, it took us awhile to get a good one-& J looks like he needs a neck brace : )

Thanks for having us over!

Erika made this tasty pastry puff, chocolatey, whipped creamy, warm, mouth watering, treat!

AND these cute little jello cups-which we didn't have room for-.

We went to Roanoke on Saturday to pick up a gun cabinet(Happy V-day to J!).

All we wanted to do after all of the traveling was to eat at OUTBACK(our fav.)

Just GUESS the wait to be seated?

not 1 hour

not 2 hours

not 3 hours

BUT...

3 1/2 HOURS!

Needless to say we Smokey Bones they were the only one with a wait UNDER 1.5 hrs!

♥♥♥

snow days in va

2010-02-09T10:11:00.000-08:00

We had a SnOwY weekend...

There were many people getting stuck... That's Jordan helping his friend...

We got a little wild hair one night...

about 12:00 A.M.

There were many videos taken, sled races, and jumps made... Jordan came up with this tricky move he calls "Sledboarding" I must say-he was good at it...
The next day we went backa dn the snow was SOLID...it had froze over night so it wasn't as slippery or fun--all landings started to hurt and bruise...

The part that wasn't caught in this video was Jordan saying "watch this drop in!"

Cute vs Scary.

2010-01-27T19:23:00.000-08:00

Every now & then I go back through my photos on my phone and find some really cute pics & some really scary ones!!

Big Red peaced out during Christmas break and somehow made an appearance in the album...

These 2 sweet things just chillin!

Oh Mila... She is obsessed with Jordan!

Tee carrying bras all throughout Ross... Screaming " MA! "

Straight chillers

Mmmm... Caramel apples

And last but not least... Finding a cow tongue-along with many more- at Sams!! Ew!

Since my husband is OBSESSED with playing xbox with a football friend... this is what me and my friend Chelsey did.
SHAMWOW! they really workk.

**********************************************************************

All I have to say is.... "MMmm..."

.Peanut. Butter. Sandwich. Cookies. need I say more?

Of course, anything with peanut butter is good--BUT.

it's the FILLING that is the BEST!

I love sundays.. Sleeping in, church, food, food, & more food : ), & spending time with my wonderfully, amazingly, 20 credit per semester taking husband!
♥♥♥

Will I take it to the NEXT level?

2010-01-14T15:47:00.000-08:00

I just might...

Fancy will love it!

game camera

2010-01-06T14:54:00.000-08:00

Jordan has a 'game camera' setup on the property where he hunts...
Here are some of my faves...(yes, I am forced to sit down and look at all 300 of them!)

hello!

this poor guy probably gets made fun of : (..

my babe dreams of this beaut...

everyone buts heads every now and then ..

someone's dog....

another dreamer...

giving it a 'test run'...

"buck fever"

2009-12-13T18:04:00.000-08:00

This is my life... & I've adjusted quite well...

This is what comes sliding out of our freezer if you dare open it....

Jordan hunts at least 6-7 times a week--he has shot, killed, & "cleaned" 5 deer this season.
He is waiting very patiently for one of these beauties to come stumbling along...

This is an 11 point-one for the records! We saw trucks pulled over near our house & so we got in on the action--this is what every hunter in Buena Vista was drooling over... I must say, Jordan has great disiplin(his bow was in the backseat)! He did try to think over how he could get this guy somewhere where he can shoot it legally.-no hope this time!

This where the "cleaning" comes in.. I always get shafted into doing this part.(ruined my manicure that I had just got the night before)

We have venison for dinner about 4 night a week... saves on our grocery bill!

♥♥♥

they love their uncle jordan

2009-11-23T13:39:00.000-08:00

I found this on Jordan's book bag today... I almost teared up. Duce is very creative...

Jordan is taking Duce and Jett hunting today-they are the age that they will remember these trips their uncle took them on...

Duce & Jett are always making pictures for us to hang on our fridge-this is a keeper!

2009-10-31T09:04:00.000-07:00

A couple of days before Halloween, we had a FHE pumpkin carving/chilli get together with our friends!

hard workers...

You can see who did all of our carving (look behind me..)

our pumpkin is the one in the very top left hand corner..."Frankenstien."

Jordan in all of his Halloween spirit!

football!

We have made to almost every away game... always late... but better late than NEVER.

Cutest player on the field.

more HALLOWEEN!

I took Tee trick or treating in downtown Lexington with my friend Janae and her baby girl Mila.

little frog.

Mila the skunk was tuckered out...

She woke up happy though!

And just so you know... this pasty, white, buena vistian will be in FLORIDA in less than 1 week.

2009-10-17T18:06:00.000-07:00

Jordy & Jack (YES! he's actually holding a baby!)

Jack and his favorite Auntie and Uncle.

Jordan & Jack watched some hunting...

We tried out the new blind.... don't ask-but yes, we were all inside of it.

We set it up when Daniel was in the shower and waited....

and waited...

And the boys did some hunting... Jordan shot these 2.

We carved pumpkins!

j did all of our carving

sister and e teamed up

the most talented-for sure- Anderson boys.

&& the D&E Munns family

this SPOT here used to have a picture of all of our beautifully carved pumpkins that somehow isn't here anymore.

Ross got into something fierce...

Jordan does this every spare minture that he has...

So, these aren't the best pictures... Didn't have much time...

I made this one for a friend

I die over this one!
One is longer than the other- I made a slight change in measurements for the 2nd go around

Trying it out.

2009-09-24T21:06:00.001-07:00

Got it! The blogger app, that is!

So, hunting season is right around the corner & Jordan is FULLY preparing himself... He climbs trees at the park near our house-nothing about hunting appeals to me, but it's been my life for the past almost year & a half- I think I'll be blogging more often with this handy app!

a Bulldog at ♥

2009-08-23T16:19:00.000-07:00

Fancy is really the perfect dog! She is potty trained, crate trained, loves kids--even when they're hitting, pinching, & riding her... BUT--- the girl is very protective over her belongings...which are: her doggy door, food bowl, water bowl, crate, & paci. She get's real sketchy and is on her toes---she's never hurt anyone...--I don' think she can. But "Ross"-which is what Jordan calls him or "Hank" which is what others call him...(the Anderson's boxer--named Boss)--really pushes her buttons.
Check it.

She is constantly reminded to not be such "a little witch"....

O-H-I-O

2009-08-23T15:08:00.000-07:00

FuN fUn FuN.... while in OhIo!

The Anderson and Ward children..

My newest little niece Magaret--'Maggie.' --- We just couldn't get enough of this little angel.

The Drive::

5 kids--There were more carseats than not in that ride.

The best passenger.... Almost There!!!

8 hours later.... We ARRIVED!

Day One::

We took the kids to the library for some movies and books....

And then we played QWIRKLE---my new favorite game!

Day Two:

Girls Day With NO Kiddies!

So, of course we did a little shopping && had some amazing Chipotle' for lunch

But then there was dinner && a movie!

We saw "The Proposal" which was VERY funny!

Had some good ol' Mexicano...

Day 3::

The Toleda Zoo.

It was hotttt! But the kids loved it.

Spotted seal--Belly up!
And... My Favorite!

The POLAR BEAR.

I don't know why it was SO cute seeing this huge bear swim around!

He put on a good show!

This is all Tee wanted to do... Sweaty kid wanted some of his "Amma's" Diet Coke!

(Yes, I'm Amma and Erika--his mom is Mamma)

Terrifying looking "spider crab"

Sushi making:: ♥

Tater--with his delicous Cali Roll.

MmMmM! Little rolls of heaven....

These scrumpcious rolls went perfect with Qwirkle!

The Pro's!

Day 3::

During the drive , Erika and I kept seeing ponds that looked crystal blue && so appealing-- Leah has a friend that has a HUGE pond! It was so nice...

Clean, blue water--with a white sand beach.

A nice dock to jump off of/kayaking/paddle boating/fishing/TONS on swimming!

Notice Duce is crawling && Erika is a little frazzled??? About 30 seconds after arriving--The kids were SO excited-the water looked a little deeper than he thought... One cannon ball in 6 inches of water = a very sad boy & a sprained ankle.

Tons of FUN!

I have family that lives in Ohio--the Dayton area... Going on this trip made me think of all of the many trips I took with my grandpa when I was little... He passed away on August 15th 2000. We were in Ohio during that time--I thought of him & how much I miss him! But we had an amazing, fun-filled vacation while our husbands were totally consumed with football! Thanks Ward family and Mom Munns for all of the fun, food, laughter, && memories!

Jordan & Shot Put...

2009-04-11T17:04:00.000-07:00

Me and Lindsay ♥

Coach said he needed some shot put participants--so Jordan and Matt(his friend off the football team) gladly jumped in...

Jordan calls that his "Track Stache" --I personally hate it. ♥

Jordan and some of his competitors.-- He was in the "1st heat"--he didn't pretty dang good for not practicing since high school-he threw 11.48 meters at his best. (15lb ball)

The only 2 representing!

Gotta love those shirts--

♥♥♥

Elder Munns♥

2009-03-27T15:24:00.000-07:00

I know--I married a shorty--but he is so handsome.

Josie and Avery in their cutest sunday/easter dresses.

I know it's been a while but....

2009-03-27T15:11:00.001-07:00

Here are a few pictures from when my grandma came to stay with us for what we thought would be the weekend....

A super weird tree with an awkward growth on it...

My grandma-- Mary Jo-- and a lot of snow!

On Saturday--Jordan took us to the foot bridge where when it's warm we would jump off of the bridge. But since it's cold we walked some of the trails. It really is so pretty!

And if you notice the snow in the picture of just my grandma--that would be the reason why they cancelled her flight so she got to spend an extra day with us!!

Thanks grandma--we had tons of fun!

♥♥♥

In his free time.....

2009-02-11T11:50:00.001-08:00

This is what Jordan does....

It's actually not too bad... The title it was saved under was named "monster buck".....

2009-01-31T14:58:00.001-08:00

We had dinner and anactivity with some friends for family home evening... Jordan was the main participant! All dressed up the Armor of God.

Before ♥ After

2009-01-31T11:27:00.000-08:00

Mom Munns was in town for a few days so I started our "t-shirt blanket" and some pillows.. Erika is making Duce and Jett their t-shirt blankets too.

It's finished!!! It's made out of mine and J's high school t-shirts... Erika had some fabric left from hers.... so we used it. It is so colorful, big, and comfortable!!

Up close---- I found the fabric at Wal Mart and added some stuff....

Before-just flat, boring, plain, green!

After! I've wanted pillows for a long time but the ones I like of course, are over a hundred... But I love these- ♥♥♥

Christmas 08'

2009-01-14T18:55:00.000-08:00

Our Trip Back to VA!

2009-01-07T12:09:00.000-08:00

♥♥♥
It may have been the worst day ever!
So. Our flight leaves at 8:30am. We get to the airport at about 6:45am. We are with the Anderson's so their are nine of us-each with a bag and carry on. We go to check in and they say that Jordan and Tyler aren't on our flight- changes were made or something... Miscommunication between Travelocity and Delta!!!!!!! We pay to get our husbands on the flight. Get everyone checked in. After we are trying to stuff things in eachother bags so that they would weigh 50pounds or less. We are now off to security. Jordan had a carry on and a personal item. I had Fancy as my carry on and my purse. They call Jordan aside to tell him they need to go through his carry on. O.K. As I was packing Jordan's carry on the night before I packed a bag with what I thought were batteries... which turned out to be AMMUNITION!!!!!! Yeah. So the FBI and Police and all kinds of security are on their way to interrogate Jordan. He will probably miss his flight. We are waiting to see what's going to happen... They tell us to go on. We get to our gate and everyone is boarding so for sure Jordan will miss the flight. And then all of a sudden I look and see this stud of a man running waving his hand at us! He made it--but barely!!!! Sounds like a good ending huh?! Not quite. Jordan now has a permanent record with the FBI and if anything sketchy happens again he get's an automatic 90 days. He has to be searched everytime he flies and the worst part (according to him) they KEPT the ammunition! Just when you think nothing else could happen Fancy swells up to about the size of Texas on our lay over! We are sure she is allergic to Cashews! And I can't forget that Josie threw up all over herself and Erika unannounced.
The good news-We are here safely-no harm to anyone physically.

Collin and Christine's Wedding!

2009-01-07T12:02:00.000-08:00

Collin and Christine did it! We are so happy for them--Congratulations!! The wedding looked amazing... The outfits couldn't have been cuter!

The little girls... They wore the cutest outfits...

So... If your wondering why I am SO close to Tiffany... It's because I could hear kids screaming, people whistling, photographer directing, and a lot of people saying "squish together" or "get closer".... I was just following the directions and no one decided to tell me how I close I REALLY was!

Love the pictures on the dock.

Every single Munns boy is so handsome.... Especially the shortest on the right.♥

Christine was gorgeous!

The very last Munns to be married!!

The Munns Brothers were the part of the wedding...

Forgive me for being a "backwards blogger".... I did put all of the pictures on out of order and I don't know how to move them! So.... Start from the bottom!

Gotta ♥ it.

And--I was cleaning the still body temperature meat...

Jordan's hunting and home teaching companion--FW Willis.

The kids were SO happy!! Josie loved the "bear"!! And don't let Duce and Jett's be too decieving! It really was FrEeZiNg!!!!!

Still in my pajamas!

It was 27 degrees!

The most talked about thing since football has been over(only like 5days)---here it is!

He went with a buddy and he shot one too!

It didn't stick but it snowed for like 10minutes!! Erika came running over--"IT's snowing!"

Last Game ♥ Virginia Beach

2008-11-18T07:54:00.001-08:00

So, Saturday was SVU's last game of the season!! Hooray!!-I can have my husband back until he get's the scoop on where he can go hunting! We played The Apprentice School.... I forget the score---we lost though.... The guys played hard... These are the seniors on the team... So sad for them.....

The game was right next to Virginia Beach--- J didn't think I was going... So, I got online found a cheap hotel and made a 4 hour drive with my friend Nicole! We stayed the night and went to the beach Sunday.... It was FREEZING!! Nope-I'm still pastey white! We settled for some pictures instead!!

The sand there is different from Florida's... As you can see--it's darker...

The team does this thing every year called Stash Bash.... They all grow mustaches! Jordan is always growing something new but he shaves it like 2 days later -- this time he kept for about two weeks.. So, when we went to the Stash Bash partay last night(pics to come)--the guys all stood in front of mirrors with their disposable razors and shaved their "stashes" off... J currently looks like a little boy that just got his first haircut!

It was so cold & windy!!! We had a great time! Thanks Luke & Nicole for hanging out with us!!

2008-10-31T06:37:00.000-07:00

Last weekend was Jordan's by week!! So, we packed our bags and went to Lynchburg to stay with our friends Devin & Amanda... It was so nice to go shopping and go to real restaurants!!

This is the only pic we took! Sad. But we were too busy shopping I guess.
We shopped and ate... We were both pretty sick when we woke up Saturday morning so we just came home & slept... It was nice! Thanks Devin & Amanda!

Thank You Grandma Munns!

2008-10-23T17:04:00.001-07:00

She really does need it since it really does get like 20 degrees in the morning & it's only the begining!!!!!

She loves the leaves too. This will be the only baby we have for a long time so everyone knows that grandma Munns is going to spoil her just like all of her other granchildren!!

So... Thank You grandma Munns for her sweatshirt!!!!!! We love you!

Our Delicous Dinner....

2008-10-23T16:59:00.000-07:00

Erka found a really good pizza dough recipe that I've tried 3x's now... I think this one turned out best...

The one on the left is just a peperoni, bacon, & ham...Jordan really wanted it... The one on the right is a bacon, ham, spinach, & alfredo pizza.... I made it before and found out that less alfredo sauce is better... I was proud of my pizza's & it's worth blogging when Jordan really loves it too!

♥♥♥

Beautiful BV.....

So... The leaves have started to fall... Notice I said started because our whole backyard is FULL of leaves!! It's really pretty & lot's of fun for the dgos to wrestle around in.

Jett is used to working Jorge & does this this daily... Rakes piles of leaves....(Notice the new privacy fence in the background?!)

This is the HUGE tree that has made our yard turn to straight leaves and notice it had barely turned it's color & has a million more leaves to go!

Family Home Evening Pumpkin Carving Contest♥

2008-10-21T13:43:00.000-07:00

Jordan pretty much took over... I'm guessing because he's obsessed with knives, cutting things, & his way... I did add some amazing eye lashes when he wasn't looking though!

The "crew" carving their pumpkins!

Concentration....

Ben & Holly... They had some disagreements on their design... But it turned out so cute!

Luke & Nicole.... They had their design on that plate right there beside Nicole's hand... But it turned out kind of Sailorish---Loved it!

Amanda & Devin... They did seperate ones... Their designs were AmAzInG....

Everyone's finished Jack-O-Lanterns!

Mine & Jordan's pumpkin.... She's cute with big eyelashes....

Luke & Nicole's --Sailor style

Ben & Holly's cut little guy... They were having issues but he turned out great.

Amanda's ghosts....Yeah--nearly perfect!

Devin's --runner up to his wife(Amanda)

It was so much fun... Thanks Erika for letting us carve in your house---since it was like 20 degrees outside!!

SVU Homecoming 08'

2008-10-16T18:12:00.001-07:00

It was fun--we didn't stay long... Jordan's not much of a dancer...

Jordan was REALLY excited... just in case you couldn't tell~!
It was parent night so parents could go & it just so happened that Mom and Dad were in town--Dad was feelin it--Mom--not so much... I also worked my magic on Erika & Tyler--them neither...

It brought me back to our high school homecoming's together... except this time it only took about 20 minutes to get ready in stead of ALL week... Also it cost me $0 -- highschool=$300 minimum!

He is by far the most handsome man in the whole entire world!

It was a close one!

How do you know it's gettin chilly in VA?

2008-09-20T21:07:00.001-07:00

It has been quite chilly this week.... Apparently Fancy's a Florida girl too!

She just couldn't stop shivering... So J wrapped her up!

You can't really see the blanket she is wrapped up in--it is the wrong side-- but it is AMAZINGLY cute.... We had a "give-a-way" at Enrichment---I discovered this--and LoVe it! Hopefully I have a girl one day♥

Not so Fancy after all??

2008-09-11T19:02:00.001-07:00

Sooo... We're getting ready for bed--J puts Fancy up on our bed while we brush our teeth--within seconds of being in the bathroom we look at eachother in horror.... It couldn't have been worse... There is a picture of what happened--too graphic to blog. Fancy literally EXPLODED-- we knew that she had been eating a rotting carcus of a rotisserie chicken that the neighbors lazily threw out beside the trash(not IN the trash).... Who knew it could do so much damage to the poor girl?!?! The best part is that for those of you who know Jordan--he can't even handle baby slobber--he had to deal w/ this cause it was more than a one man job!!

We had to wear 'gear' to clean this 'explosion' off of our bed (comforter,pillows, & head board)

almost 1am and poor Babe had to get the hose out on our comforter...

It was horrific!! LOVE that robe...
---She did have to sleep in her crate...
---No more chicken for her....

P.S... - Sorry the pics. are kinda out there---but after all- we were getting ready for bed and this was one heck of a story....

Morehead is in Kentucky.... I rode with Amanda, Holly, and Nicole- it was about a 5 hour drive--not too bad! We drove home after the game and made to Buena Vista at about 4:30 am. The game was good- the score- not so good. We had fun though and it was great wake up call for our players!

On our way I told Jordan that we probably wouldn't be home til around 4:00 am... His guess was maybe 3:00.. The movie didn't actually start until about 12:30... it got over around 3:00... Denny's was calling our names on the way home!!!-Had to do it! Then our arrival in Buena Vista around 5:00 am... The players had be up to work out a little less than an hour later!

We went to the Foot Bridge.. (I'm sure you've seen Erika's blog w/ video's) I was so scared with all of the kids and what was in the water or someone jumping on top of one another!!!! It was nerve racking... But most of all-Jordan--- HE DOVE! yep--right off the top of the bridge!! I was in tears and welps from being such a reck... Sad-I know.. but we had fun once we all took about 30ft. jump or more!

The boys fished a little bit (suprising--I know!)

We had to travel up a mountain to get to the bridge-- Duce was feeling a lil sick!

Such a pretty picture!

Our Trip to Florida♥

2008-07-15T15:58:00.000-07:00

The snapper--caught by my mother!

We made a great Fourth of July trip to Florida to see our families... Our first destination was Jupiter, Fl. where we went fishing! We caught many fish.... King Mackeral, bonita, snapper, a really pretty goldfish, and a HUGE fish that was fought for many hours and we never got it in the boat---so who knows what it was??? But almost everyday there was an afternoon thunderstorm--on this particular day there was a water spout--which was kind of scary for me.
Our next destination was Crystal River to go scalloping... I don't have pictures because I was in the water the whole time--but it was so fun and Jordan got stung by jelly fish!

Can you spot it??? Yeah there was a water spout that I was freaked out over!!! I was ready to get out of there-- what if it had turned into a tornado?? (click on the pic...it get's bigger)

My mom caught the biggest fish of all time! Bonita--the 'belt' was critical.

Dan & Emily made it to both trips which was so fun!

She also caught this goldfish looking fish*

My 1st Time Being 'Tagged'

2008-06-25T17:54:00.000-07:00

♥♥♥Here it goes....
3 Joys
1. Having the thought in my head that since I don't see Jordan too much during the day... I know I will ALWAYS get to at least lay in bed with him at night and talk about our day... He loves when I read our scriptures to him--and I love that...

2. Calling home at night and listening to my mom tell me everything about what is going on... She enjoys hearing how we are doing--what we had for dinner... all that good stuff♥

3. Knowing that Jordan and I have our whole life ahead of us... Since I'm only 17* We get to watch & help the family raise kids so when we have our own--it should run smoothly and so then Jordan will want even more!

3 Fears
1. Losing loved ones---My husband--I love him so much and we're so young--yep this could get so emotional..

2. Spiders-- I know-typical but ask Jordan...or Dan & Emily- they know all about my fear for spiders (Daniel will cry over a spider-ask Emily to tell the story)

3. Jordan joining UFC-- he wants to...

3 Goals
1. To scrapbook my heart out until I get our dating life and then our wedding completely scrapbooked so by the time we have kids-- I'll feel fresh enough to start again..

2. To become a nurse

3. To have our children be healthy and successful in all that they do♥

3 Obsessions
1. Of course... Jordan

2. Being the best wife and one day the best mother...

3. Food--we like to try new things....
Diet Coke too...

3 Randoms
1. I can eat a whole jar of pickles in a day (Ask my husband)

2. I live in a hunting lodge...

3. I didn't know how to say 'fork' until I was about 8... I called it and spelled it 'forNk'

I TAG...
Erika Anderson
Kara Haught
Leah Ward...(since you never blog)

Our lobsters--I mean craw dads!

2008-06-25T08:54:00.001-07:00

When Jordan and I first got here.. The first thing we noticed was the beautiful Maury River... We went down to it for a couple days straight while I watched Jordan fish... We kept seeing craw dads and then we went hunting for them.. We found this huge baby under a rock... Put him in a cup- went to wal-mart, bought a tank... Stopped back by the river to get some rocks for it -- laying under the rock that we were picking up was another one--bigger! So these are our pets for now-- they've only gottem in trouble one time...
♥ The Story:.
So we feed them before we go to bed.. Wake up the next morning to find only OnE in the tank... How could it have gotten out?? We asked Erika if she had taken it or something?? Nope. Well, we go to dinner at Applebee's and we get home Avery comes running inside with me and runs across the living room and I hear a shreik--to find her curled up on our couch about to seriously break down saying I stepped on it!! I look, there's our ALIVE and CRAWLING craw dad on our carpet!! Jordan rescued 'Pork chop'(his name) as I calmed Avery down.. We put him back in the tank--he floated for about 30 mins... 'Princess'(the other one) was happy... They are a lot bigger than they look!

The Chair♥

2008-06-25T08:44:00.001-07:00

This is the chair-- he's in love with. So mom & dad Munns, Erika, and I went antique/ furniture shopping... Tee got hungry so we took a break in the recliner section of the store where Erika plopped down in this beauty♥♥ We knew Jordan just had to have it but maybe not right now... Erika made some furniture purchases to be delivered last Monday and on our way to the Safari we decided to make an addition... Jordan had no clue.. He came home from working out and had to do a second take♥ So that's his new baby for now! And in plus-- who doesn't want a mossy oak camoflouge chair in their 'huntin lodge' of a living room?? Apparently not us.

♥♥♥

Our House/Apartment/Hunting Lodge?♥

2008-06-24T18:30:00.001-07:00

I'm sure these dead animals have much meaning them....

Our house/apartment/hunting lodge is PERFECT for us! It has just the right size everything! When you walk in, it's our tiny little kitchen which made it so tricky for Jordan to get our furniture through into our living room that is very spacious.... With Jordan's chair that he LoVeS♥ Our bedroom is def. a master! To get to the bathroom you walk through the closet which right now is filled with my clothes only & Jordan is forced to use the closet in the living room-lol- Kind of sad but he doesn't mind... I love it but I must say... It is quite the hunting lodge!* All of Jordan's dead-stuffed animals randomly float around, hung on our walls with the animal skins as our rug... I don't mind-I actually like it. He's happy-I'm happy!

A few pics. from the Wedding♥

So... Here are a few more pictures... I still haven't gotten pictures from my photographer... Soon though.

The Safari Zoo--♥

2008-06-21T19:28:00.000-07:00

Saturday the Anderson's, Ward's, and I went to the Safari Zoo... This is like no other zoo! You can drive through the 180 acres of animal filled land with not one thing between you and the animals... We left the doors open and the windows down in Erika's mini van that included: Me, Tee, and Erika in the front...Leah, Oscar, Gordon, Ellie, Jett, Duce, Avry, and Josie in the back.. It started out kind of scary for all of us... Kids hiding under seats--fearing for their lives but eventually warmed up... I don't think any of us have ever came close enough to kiss a camel, lama, all kinds of deer, or any wild animal other than Baby-Dad's water buffalo- It was well worth it and we'll be back!

Some of our everyday life 5♥

2008-06-17T13:43:00.000-07:00

We now live in a cute little apartment next to the Anderson family...which is who and where we spend 97% of out time! We love and would probably feel like lost puppies without them~! We have been to 2 different pools, Wal-Mart(8-9 times already)in our pajamas...., had a sleep over, the river, and many coloring days... We love to watch t.v. in the basement where it's nice and cool! Jo has a love hate relationship with Jordan--she loved him this night..

The Honeymoon 4♥

2008-06-17T13:38:00.000-07:00

After our ride out on the airboat (thanks to Dan) we were off to The Peabody...just for the night because the next day was lunch and goodbye's! We got there late and I didn't get a chance to change out of my wedding dress so I had to walk all throughout the hotel with everyone staring and congratulating us! We got a treat sent to our room and the people at the front just couldn't get enough of us... we went to the pool to relax and into the hot tub there are few pictures..

Just a Glimpse of the Wedding 3♥

2008-06-17T13:29:00.000-07:00

HHS Graduation 2♥

2008-06-17T13:16:00.000-07:00

So, I graduated on May 30, 2008... Got married on May 31, 2008...and moved with my new husband on June 1, 2008--

to Virginia!

The graduation ceremony was pretty long... Sad for some and for

others like me, so HaPpY!

Engagement 1♥

2008-06-17T12:39:00.000-07:00

So... not too long ago---Jordan asked me to marry

him!!! I knew it was coming-but I had no clue when... It's actually the cutest story.. So.. Shelly asks us to join her and her cute family for dinner one night during the week... And we do- she tells us to be at her house around 6 or so...we're on our way and she calls Jordan because her and John had to run a "30min. errand"... So he decides to take me down to the beach, which made sense because he brought his surf board... We get there after many phone calls and totally fake conversations on the phone with Shelly..and we're walking down to the beach and I was like "Shoot, we forget the camera" which I do everytime and Jordan just says forget it but this time I got a "OH YEAH! Run and get it real quick-here's the keys!" Which I should've found fishy but didn't.. Next we're walking really really fast down the beach-I mean I'm being drug down the shoreline and he's looking straight ahead--not at the water or waves or anything until I look up to see this... and then the knee and the question... and of course the answer!!

It was perfect! The sun was setting and in our basket, there were some delicious strawberries, cookies, and some fancy lemonade along with a piece of wood that I carved our names in when we first started dating...

Lack of Posting♥

2008-06-11T09:26:00.000-07:00

So, I know I have a lot to catch up on.... The engagement, graduation, the wedding, our new home and everything in between! I promise, as soon as we get our internet hooked up---I will post my heart out! But, I will say that we love our new married life, our little appartment is perfect, and what would we do without our Anderson family neighbors..??? We love having them here-we spend most of our time with them and have many pictures!

So... I was a cheerleader- I love the sport... I haven't cheered since my sophmore year in high school because my junior year I wanted to try new things... and my senior year I got blessed with OJT as my 5th and 6th period classes so- I couldn't do a sport. But here are some pictures of the OLD but young, tiny me! By the way, I would kill to have that body since I am going to be seen in a wedding dress here in about TWO WEEKS!!*

Our Story...

2007-10-15T13:48:00.000-07:00

Jordan and I met during his junior (Shanda's sophmore) year of high school... We started dating on May 23rd, 2006. We have been together ever since and plan on being together for ALL EtErNiTy.*
