Day 26: Meet my Family

Meet my Family!

There are 4 people misses from these photos due to work;
 My Aaron, My sister in law, Kerri, and cousins Chelsea & Zach 


 "when you say family, this is what you get!" - My Mom

It' s SO true! My entire family is very close. Know matter who, what, when, where, or how...
A time of need, everyone gathers.
A time to celebrate, nobody misses it.
A death, we are all there for support.
A Family Reunion [these pictures] - Nobody misses out!

I can't even write in words what my family means to me. Clique, right? Well, maybe so... but seriously, we are one of a kind. I'd rather be with all of them, then anywhere else.

Patrick, Reid, Bridget, Mrs. Kandi, Mr. Paul, Myself & Aaron
Wanna see more of us?
Go to these places... [It's worth it, trust me]

Anyway... I look forward to reading everyone else's list!
What I DO NOT look forward to, is sleeping alone for the next SEVEN days.
Ugh... Aaron is headed to Indiana as we speak for a Hunting trip. He goes every year. I'm super exicted for him, but at the same time... I do not like it. I get no sleep when he isn't in the bed with me. Boo! I'll be okay! I have many projects & events to attend to keep me busy. Hopefully, it'll fly by!

Happy Thursday!

Day 22: Something I've Learned...

Geez, Where do I start....
In my 25 years, I've learned so much.

I've learned....
...You can't choose your family, and family is the greatest gift you can ever receive.
...Every person has good in them!
...God has a plan & I am not in control of my life.
... Be nice to people. You never know whose life you can change with one smile.
... How to be "nice nasty". Thanks Mama!
... to choose my battles. Although, it's tough at times.
... yelling gets you NO where.
... being a sore loser is annoying.
... The grass isn't always greener on the other side.
... Every Child should be loved.
... How to love and be loved.
... Broken Hearts suck really bad.
... You can't tell your friend[s] He's not good for you, they'll have to learn for themselves.
... Death is a part of life, and it's never easy.
... How to follow a recipe.  [Sounds crazy, but it used to be tough for me]
... You can't change people. People can't truly change who they are. Only for a small amount of time, eventually, the real comes out.
... things will not always go my way & that's okay.
... putting someone down will haunt you in your future.
... never bully. You don't know whose life you can hurt.
... Yes, there are people who don't have families at Christmas Time, so take someone in.
... Having money does not make you happy.
... You have to love yourself for who you are. Then you can be loved and truly love.
... Mama CAN be your Mom & your best friend.
... With that, Mama IS always right.
... with that, I've turned out to be just like her, & it isn't so bad after all.
... abandoning a child can ruin one forever.
... how to move on.
... LOVE is all that matters.
... Friends come and Go. Even the ones you always thought would always be there.
... How to be a friend, even if I'm not befriended back. I'd rather make a difference.
... Going out of your way for someone is the best kind of peace.
... it's okay if the laundry hasn't been washed in three days.
... Coupons really do save money in the right stores.
... Small things in life are the big things.
... Unanswered prayers are always answered.
... How to use the words: I'm sorry...
... The truth will always be told. Someday! Someway! Somehow!
... a card in the mail can make someones day.
... a simple Thank You, means a whole lot.
... A Kiss when he walks in the door, can change his mood.
... Never say never!
... You can have a friend, without even knowing who they are.
... saying "Hi" can change a life & give someone hope.
... a little goes a long way.

I turned ONE today!!!!

Happy 1st Birthday to our nephew
REID AVERY WHITE
We love you so much!

Reid's Birthday party isn't until Saturday, November 6th!
But Uncle Aaron will be out of town then, so Aunt Jessica wanted to celebrate
a little early!
We had a very small birthday party for Reid so he could enjoy
 his gifts and eats cake & ice cream!






[I do NOT like this picture of me, but had to capture the moment]


Here is Reid in his Costume!
He's so stinkn' cute!

Daddy broke my zipper, therefore I could not zip all the way up!

Day 21 - Favorite City


New York City

Everything about NYC, I love!
That place makes my heart melt and it excites even just seeing a picture!
I'd Love to [one day] go inside the Empire State Building & See Lady Liberty up close and personal. I've only seen her from a far!
I also want to go there during Christmas Time and Ice Skate at Rockefeller Center & take pictures in front of the Giant Christmas Tree!

Not only do I love the city itself, but I love the food!
NY pizza is unbelievably delicious! The bagels and rolls are to die for, and
there is nothing better than a corner corn dog stand!
I'm so jealous just thinking about it!




Helen, Georgia
This town is so wonderful!
It's romantic, family friendly, and beautiful!






There are so many cities that I love, looking from a photo!
One [year] in my life, I want to take as many trips to as many different cities in the US!
And then of course all the cities in Europe!
