favorites

My favorites for this week are:

1. Taylor Lautner - The boy is just amazing!!



2. Talking - Yes, it's true. I like to talk... who knew? I never realized how much (even thought that was the ONE thing I always got told I did too much). We had a baby shower for Aley this weekend and it was so fun to just talk to the other women there and share stories. Also going to the movies with a group of gals was so great!! Got to spend all day Saturday with my closest girls and we had such a great time just talking and having fun.

3. New Moon - No, the answer is no. I probably would not love the movies as much if Taylor Lautner was not in them. I don't know what it is about that boy... Maybe the fact that he's just amazing... have I mentioned that I think he's amazing?? Ha!!

4. A packed movie theater - I never thought I would like such, but it was great! I loved watching New Moon with about 50 other people. It was so awesome to hear everyone gasp and cheer at the same times. Of course I remained reserved and quiet. Of course...

So, there you have it. My 4 favorites of the week. Hope you read up on your favorites soon!!

Writers Workshop: Why, Hamlet?!?! Why??

Describe the most destructive thing your pet has done.


Well if you read my blog you know that I briefly had a dog named Hamlet. He was found by a co-worker and we volunteered to take him. At first, he was the most wonderful dog ever!!

Then... He would chew something here or tear up something there... Pretty much things that I thought were overlook-able.

Well one Sunday after church, I went home to take him out to potty and he went to the bathroom and seemed to want to leave with me but I did not take him.
About 2 hours later, Candace went to the house for a minute and came back and told me that Hamlet had destroyed the living room.

When I went home I could not believe my eyes!! My mini blinds were on the floor. Mind you I have one large picture window in the living room encased by two regular sized windows. This means that there are four sets of mini blinds. They were torn up, chewed up.. just totally annihilated. Along with the mini blinds, the lace curtains were ruined. Huge holes in them!! The curtain rod was in the floor, half way knocked off of the holder. I'm guessing he jumped onto the couch then onto the end table and took a flying leap into the window and it just escalated from there.

Needless to say Hamlet is no longer with our family. He now has a new one.
