worst. pain. EVER.

So you know, back in your wild days.. when you do really stupid things that you wish you could take back?? yeah. Well mine was getting a tattoo with an ex-boyfriend. Matching in fact {just in different places} very dumb, i know. I was young. Since the day I dumped that guy I've wanted it removed, just haven't been able to afford it.  Thanks to my wonderful husband who loves me {and has all the hook ups} it's finally getting done!
Dave tells everyone that I absolutely love pain.  He is indeed telling the truth, i do love pain.  Don't ask me why.  This pain on the other hand.... is EXTREMELY painful. extremely.
My first session we were naive and didn't take any pictures or video. dumb.  This time we were smart. Also, on my first treatment, I had to take ONE break {the pain was unbearable} But both the Owner and the girl who performed the treatment were very impressed on how well I handled it.  So.  This time, I decided I would go with ZERO breaks.  And I conquered. In pain.
I go in every 8 weeks for about 8-10 treatments.  The tattoo is actually looking really good and fading faster than I thought.  We're excited for this thing to finally be gone forever!

sunday funday

This Sunday we slept in until 10:30.... TEN THIRTY! We had quite the late night Saturday... 9:00am church wasn't happening at the Eggett's.  We had left over Robintino's for breakfast, laid around all morning and then decided to go do a little shopping at The Gateway Mall.  Rachel, Zack and Emily {Oh yeah!! Emleeee came home this weekend.  She surprised us all and showed up Saturday night} came along and we really enjoyed ourselves didn't we?
oh! I just have to say how much I love and adore my amazing husband!!  He seriously makes me so happy!!!

Bring on the new week......

a little giggle

July third.  Dave and I, along with a few friends spent the long, hot evening waiting for fireworks to go off at EagleWood Golf Course.  This is probably one of my favorite things about summer.  Usually getting home after this event takes 2 hours, plus some.  Except for this year.  Because Dave is an amazing driver.  We stopped by my mother's home to hang out for a bit and this is what our night consisted of.

Are you wondering what this means? yeah.  I would too, if I were you.  So here is the story.  In our new {and amazing} apartment, our lovely downstairs neighbor has been complaining of 'stomping' after quiet hours.  Okay. stomping? Dave and I definitely don't stomp.  Here is the other thing... We can hear our neighbor's above us walking around.. It's an apartment.  get used to it.

So Dave and I were telling Rachel and Zack about our phone call we received.  I was simply just telling them how I wanted to respond. {I know, it was inappropriate. I was mad}  We came up with the idea of, making a sign with the above abbreviations and lowering it down onto her balcony late a night.  When we thought about the phone calls we would receive afterwards, we came up with a different abbreviation.

and this was the result of our new abbreviations.....

okay, okay. the video is currently having technical difficulties.  I promise you will want to see it... so stay tuned.

happy

I was just thinking about all the big and little things in life that make me happy.  Wondering if I express how grateful I am for what I have enough, deciding that I probably don't as much as I should. I am making a goal to show my appreciation more for everything that I have and for everything that makes my life, happy.

big things.

- My Amazing Husband. Who makes me smile every single day.  Who is my best friend,

someone that I can always count on.  He shows me how much he loves and cares about me

every single day. He is the number one reason why I am so Happy.

-A Job. That I love so much!!

-A roof over our heads and food on our table.

-Clothes to wear and a bed to sleep in.

- Two cars to safely provide both Dave and I transportation.

-Two very loving families, which I love and care so much about.

and many many more. 

little things.

weekend

This weekend was actually really nice and relaxing... I didn't want to wake up this morning. {Monday's are always the worst!!!} 

Saturday I spent the morning cleaning up around the apartment while Dave played some zombies, attempted making waffles with our new waffle maker and didn't succeed. We bagged that idea and went grocery shopping. Once we got home, we decided to try the whole waffle thing ONE more time and sure enough it worked and they were oh so delicious.

We also went swimming with Rachel and Zack... had to get some sun time in. {you know me.. I love the sun}

That night, Dave and I went to the Bee's Game with Brooke and Shad {thanks guys!!!} Although I think baseball is pretty boring, I think we had a good time!

We ended the night with a slumber party with the sister Rachel..

Sunday we seriously did nothing.. it was so nice to just relax instead of constantly doing something 24/7

And of course we had our lovely Sunday dinner up at the Eggett's. Dave and I taught our little niece how to do a backhand spring. After spotting her 3 or 4 times, she had it all by herself! YAY!!

We had our nightly ice cream and banana's snack {that we haven't had the last 2 weeks :(} did some sit ups and push ups and then crashed.

 Bring on the new week!!!

Happy 4th of July

Happy {late} Fourth of July, everyone!!!

We hope you enjoyed it just as much as we did!

life as of late

Seriously, A lot has happened since the last time we posted.  It's been hard to keep up but we have decided to fill you in.

-June 15, 2012 we moved into our very FIRST apartment. The move was decently fast and easy {Thanks to family and friends who helped} We managed to unpack and get settled in ALL in one weekend.  I can't stand clutter or any sort of a messy/dirty house and I knew if we didn't get it done then it wouldn't get done {for who knows how long} There are a few pictures and decorations that still need to be put up but other then that we are all settled in and absolutely loving our new place.  Our pool is finally finished and soon we will invite you all over for a pool party :)

 -Barcode Studios {Dave's App Company} launched their FIRST game on the app store, and have done SO WELL. The game has been out since June 15th and has had over 1300 downloads. The game is a blast!! Those of you who have apple products should download Save Your Bacon. 

{For a limited time, the game is FREE}

-Mom scared us all the weekend we moved into our new place.... She took a trip to the ER thinking she had gall bladder problems but doctors found out it was much more serious.  After a long night in the ER taking tests and X-ray's they decided to do an emergency surgery.  Turns out her intestines were all tangled up and eventually it would have killed her if they didn't take care of it soon.  Now, Mom is out of the hospital and recovering well.

-More boating and LOTS {and I mean lots} of sun!!

-We finally got another car.... no more dealing with TWO jobs and only ONE car. yay!!

-Dave and I celebrated being married TWO months.... I know it's silly but it makes me really happy.  He surprised me with flowers and Lulu Lemon, took me out to dinner and just spent the night enjoying each other's company. We're so in love.

Until next time folks.
