Five Question Friday!

Hey!!!! I feel like I've been gone forever! It's Spring Break for me right now so I have a little free time to do a post. Five Question Friday has always been my favorite so what a great time to say "hello" and catch you up! My little man turned two this past Monday, so we had his party last Saturday and it turned out really cute. A lot of people showed up to celebrate with us and it felt good to see how loved our Judson is. Here are a few pics from the party- his decorations came from here.

And now for Five Question Friday...

1. Have you ever testified in court? For what?
No, I have not. But I have always thought it would be kinda fun to be called in for jury duty. I know quite a few people who have been called on more than once, but I have never been asked to come. Most people dread it, but I think it's kinda interesting?

2. Do you still have your wedding dress?
Yes, I do. But I have been thinking about selling it. What's the odds that I will have a daughter who may want to wear it on her wedding day?

3. Is there a special place you like to go when you're happy, sad, stressed, etc.?
YES! My house! Home sweet home seems to make everything feel better.

4. If you have kids, do they sleep with you? If you don't have kids...will you let your kids sleep with you when/if you have them?
If Judson wakes up early in the morning and we still want to sleep, we will put him in between us in our bed and he usually goes right back to sleep. Who would'nt want to snuggle with this butter ball? LOL

5. Do you watch late night TV?
The only late night TV I'm watching is DVR'd episodes of my favorite shows that I did not have time to watch during the week, but usually we are in the bed by 10 p.m. I know, we're old.

Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

Love, E

Hello all! School started back this week and I am for lack of better word, pooped. I'm ready to get some sleep this weekend. I'm hoping the little man allows me to do so. This week has been crazy at work and then to add the new semester into the equation- my brain is fried. Time to have a little fun- Five Question Friday!

1. Where did you meet your spouse and did you instantly know it was love?

I met him on MySpace. I sent him a comment because he looked familiar to me. Come to find out we lived within 3 miles of each other. After awhile of talking- we agreed to meet in person. AND yes, I knew in that few moments after meeting that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. I knew there was no turning back.

2. What is your favorite room in your house?

Our kitchen and dining room are combined, but my favorite part is in the dining area. I have an old china cabinet that holds all of my cook books, china, special collectibles, and on top sits a painting of bright green pear and a framed photograph of our family. The cabinet sits beside a window that overlooks our front yard and I just love it :)

3. Can you wiggle your ears?
um.. I don't think I can. lol

4. What is your evening ritual?

Usually leave work at 5 and if I don't have class or a chiropractor appointment, I go straight home and love on my little man. I then prepare dinner, clean up around the house, wash clothes if need be, give Judson a bath and get him dressed for bed, play with him and chit chat with the husband until Judson goes to sleep. I then get stuff ready for the next day- like Judson's bag, clothes, and lunches. Then the husband and I usually crash for the evening in our bed and usually watch "Three and Half Men" until we fade out. LOL HOW EVENTFUL!

5. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?

Not enough! Well, I guess we do pretty good- usually 6 hours. Jimbo (my husband) starts his day at 5 and I start mine at 6. Judson sometimes starts his even earlier, but he has been sleeping good lately. We've officially made it to 7 a.m. on Saturdays! Hallalujah!

Hope you have a beautiful, fun-filled weekend!

Five Question Friday

TGIF. Nuf said.

1. What is the most physically painful thing that has ever happened to you?

I've had part of my lip sewn back on due to an accident when I was in 3rd grade, a breast reduction, a blood-clot removed from my nose, and a spider bite on my eyelid, BUT I am dead serious when I say that none of those were as painful as a dry socket I got after I had my wisdom teeth removed!

Don't know what a dry socket is?   This condition exist when a blood clot is dislodged from the surgery site thus exposing the bone and fine nerve endings. 
Just so you know the depth of this pain- it hurt for me to lay in a room where a ceiling fan was turned on because the air would hurt my face so bad. Yep.

2. How much sleep do you get at night?
Probably around 5 or 6. I wish I got more though. Between me working, going to school at night, spending time with my family and doing mom duties around the house there is just not too many hours left for sleep. Maybe one day (sigh).

3. How long did you believe in Santa Claus? How did you find out that he does not exist?

Okay, so you're probably going to think this is crazy, but I never really believed in him. My parents were extremely religious back in the day and never really introduced the fella to us kids. Right along with only being able to watch Little House on the Prairie and homeschooling. Looking back we never missed out though- we always got surprises left for us from my parents on Christmas morning. My mom has admitted she regrets not letting us participate in the letter writing and cookie leaving rituals, but it has not bothered me. I DO plan on letting my children believe in him though. :)

4. What was the last movie you saw in a theater?

The last movie I saw in a theater was absolutely wonderful! It made me truly laugh and cry. It takes a lot for me to really laugh (you know one of those your face hurts because you've laughed so hard laughs) but this movie really did! "Life As We Know It" starring Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel.

5. What do you wear to bed?

Hmmm... usually comfy pj pants and a t-shirt, but sometimes when my husband is lucky I just wear the t-shirt ;) I used to really like lingerie, but I'm kinda over it.

Hope you have a good weekend. I have big plans, but I can't say what they are yet. It's a secret :)

Love, E
