CIAO!

Our exciting weekend...

...that we had originally planned out completely fell apart. Why? Ice. Yep the one weekend we had some exciting stuff going on and actual PLANS, everyone around us got a bunch of ice and snow. Not us, but everyone we had the plans with. My cousin was suppose to come into town Friday -- they decided to wait until Saturday because the roads were so bad in AR -- Saturday morning they decided not to come at all because it was still so bad. There goes those plans. (Not that I'm upset Steven, I would have been worried sick about yall driving in it ... it just ruined our weekend is all ... ha). THEN Saturday our friends that had moved to Nashville in January had decided to come visit (YAY!) and we had pushed our 'Chuck Night' to Saturday to watch it with them -- the ice came, and they stayed home. There goes those plans. SO our whole weekend thrown off whack, and we ended up doing absolutely nothing. Very productive.

SO I cooked the other night, and decided to test out my new camera along the way...so here ya go. I made chicken alfredo and rice casserole.  The end product was one of those that wasn't bad, but I won't make it again. So soak in the pictures, you will never hear of this again :)

I cooked the rice first, took about 20 minutes

Got some Tyson chicken... thawed in the high tech microwave

Then mixed the rice and a bottle of Alfredo sauce MMM

Rice, chicken, and broccoli mixed all together and in a casserole dish. The original recipe called for peas...but who likes those things? ;)

Baked in oven

Bread crumbs and butter on the top, then baked again to brown them. Looks pretty good, but eh.

OK so now to the good stuff. If you have ever been to Edgar's Bakery, they have a dessert there called 'chocolate squares'. AKA - a bite of heaven. I absolutely love these things. I decided to try them out - i took a lemon bar recipe and just made it with chocolate cake mix instead. Turned - out - fabulous! Chad devoured them, I gained 20 pounds from them, and I even made them again in the same week to take to our small group at church (many compliments..yess a success). SO here they are!

This is our one art/ picture we have actually hung up so far. Every other wall is bare...ha

Here is more fun with my camera :)

And that is my update. This weekend is superbowl and we are headed to ttown to celebrate. I'm making some appetizers and little football treats :) GO COLTS!

Since when did I grow up?

I had dinner last night with my best friend Lauren (i'm her Matron of Honor --Married Maid of Honor as I like to call it -- in her wedding in August) to a Greek / Italian restaurant.  It was her birthday and so I took her out! I even told the waiter it was her birthday so they did the whole embarrassing clap and sing shindig and it was hilarious as i clapped and sang along :) Sorry Lauren haha

Our dinner conversation of course had to do with wedding and planning that but then we talked about real adult stuff. I mean, don't get me wrong. I have normal conversations haha I just realized that times are actually changing.  We talked about money, we talked about relationships, we talked about future plans, kids, dogs, houses, decorating, family, etc. I found myself driving home asking myself when I grew up to the point that that is my conversations? and more importantly, that I love these conversations? haha Guess I'm not a toys r' us kid any longer.

This weekend my cousin is coming into town with his girlfriend! They are going to a concert Saturday and staying with us the rest of the weekend. More to come on that soon!

...Christmas (and New Years) has ended!...

...and I'm JUST now writing about it. Yes, I know. I have made promises and resolutions about keeping up better, and blogging more, and here I am, a month later, finally updating. Let me throw out my excuses and see if anyone has any pity. In the midst of the past month, we have been packing, loading, unloading, unpacking, decorating, packing, wrapping, traveling, unpacking, baking, entertaining, traveling, .... so on and so forth. No pity? You've been doing the same thing and still kept up with your regular routines you say? Well...props to you.


OK. One month has gone by, and SO much has gone on. I had to go re-read my other blog just to see how much everyone has missed out on. My last statement was "I never want to move at Christmas again"...and I still firmly believe in that. So much so that we worked out our lease to be until Jan 2011 (wow that was weird to write that date, i'm still getting used to 2010) just so we wouldn't have to mess with it. We made it through, however. Whew.
Chad and I packed up everything on Dec. 18th. It took a while. Its never fun packing everything up. Even being optimistic doesn't help because what you "have to look forward to" is just going back through all the stuff you spent hours packing and unpacking it all. I must say if I had to choose between the two, I would pick unpacking...but only to a certain extent. At first its exciting because its a new place for everything...then after hours of that you are just ready to be moved in and done. (Do I sound like I just moved or what?)
That saturday my family and a good friend of mine showed up and we loaded everything into a truck we had rented for the day. We spent all day loading and unloading, and going back and loading and then unloading again. We finally got about finished when my parents surprised us with their Christmas present - a new couch! We had been searching high and low for couches - used and new, stores and Craigslist - and my dealhunting Dad found some awesome ones at a store that was liquidating. We all went and we got to pick one out! It is a light tan microsuede couch and we love it :) Thanks guys!!


Moved in, started unpacking, and then 4 days later had to pack and leave for our Christmas road trip! We figured out this trip was going to be the longest trip we've been on while married. Our honeymoon was 6 days and this was going to be 7. Look at us growing up so fast.
Wednesday the 23rd I worked a 1/2 day and then headed back home to finish packing and wrapping our gifts. We hit the road and headed off to Memphis! We arrived there that night and like always, was greeted with warm hugs and smiles :) We decided to go ahead and do family christmas since the extended family would be there the next day.  We got some wonderful wonderful things (Yall are just too sweet!) including: a beautiful scarf from Chelsie which i've already worn several times, some spectacular earrings (which i've worn about every day...no exaggeration), a starbucks sampler (who wouldn't love that - mmm!), some gift cards and money (always winners), sweatshirts which we have much needed in this random 10 degree weather here in bama, a very cool travel bag set (it has a tote and all these other matching bags that you can organize your jewlery, bathroom items, shoes, dirty clothes, etc. I LOVE it. So organized!!), [and let me insert this right now - i have been working on this single blog until this point for almost a month now, and it is taking waaaay too long...so I have now decided to do more of a 'sum up' so that I can get back to normal blogging...yes, i know i've done/said this before. I'm so sorry i keep everyone hanging like this haha hopefully 2010 will be a new page for blogging!] 

The next day the extended family came - Chad's maternal grandparents (Mema and Papa), Aunt and Uncle (Todd and Sarah) and their son Alex, and Papa's sister Deanna ('Dee'). In the morning before they got there it was time to decorate the Christmas cookies! We spent quite a while on them and I must say I was pretty proud of a few of mine (ha). That afternoon was games, catching up, and chilling out. Great family time! That night We watched It's A Wonderful Life (who doesn't love that movie) and did more games and family time :) This was also the day I tried out, for the first time every, puppy chow - and it worked! That stuff was a-mazing and we are holding on to that recipe forever. We also played some games - we did a 'theme-song' trivia quiz. Doug sat at his computer and played old tv theme songs and we had to guess what it was. I was horrible and my team lost. No Hershey's bar :( However later in the week we played a Christmas trivia quiz and it was guys against girls...girls dominated. Thats right.
The next day was Christmas!! Most of the morning was spent cooking and preparing for the LOVELY Christmas dinner to come. The dinner was absolutely spectacular and I believe I gained about 10 pounds just by looking at it. Another 10 came after I ate it all :)
Presents that night consisted of the 'kids' opening our gifts and then later a gift swap between all of the adults. We got to participate in both, no argument there haha. Every gift was so thoughtful and there is not one thing I haven't used!  Seriously, that is no joke.  A Christmas Story was also watched on this day - and I just have to say I will never get tired of that movie. Priceless.

Saturday we headed out to the new church building to take a look around. I cannot believe how much it has changed just within the month we had been gone! Things are coming together perfectly and I cannot wait to see the final project. I feel so privileged to have seen the steps its taken - what talented people have all brought together to form this incredible building. That architect sure is a good one! ;)
After the building we headed home for a VERY quick bite and then off to the movies. Chad, Brett, and Doug all went and saw Avatar and everyone else headed out to see Sherlock Holmes. I must say it was better than expected and very well done. (Avatar I had made a vow not to see...and I broke that vow last week. It was actually a good movie, and I am sorry for all the bad comments I had given it prior to my viewing haha). That night was leftovers and catch phrase! Always a good game - even though I personally was off my game that night, we still had a blast. 



Sunday we had to leave :( I don't think it will ever be easy leaving. Its always such a sad time, even when we are hours down the road. Still miss everyone! Sundays trip (which I originally thought was 6 hours) was 9 HOURS to Indiana. Yes, 9 hours. Thank goodness Chad was with me because if I had to drive that alone I would have fallen asleep for sure. We actually had a lot of fun as usual. When we got into Indianapolis though, the snow storm started up. We couldn't barely see in front of us and everyone was going about 3 miles an hour. Then we started seeing cars that had run off the road, collisions in the middle of the interstate, etc etc. Now this is normally bad enough, but then I noticed the license plates of all these cars. Indiana.  Not out of towners who didn't know any better, but people who had lived there their whole lives were the ones making all the mistakes. After this realization we were freaked out since our tag was definitely a southern Alabama tag. Whew! We made it through and finally arrived at my grandparents house :)
We ate a late dinner and hung out / talked and then Chad and I headed out to our hotel. The next day was our Christmas. We did gifts with my mom's parents, my family, and my mom's sister and her family. Lunch was afterwards and then the boys (Kevin, Kyle, Chad and Ryan) suited up and went outside to play in the snow! They did sleds and snowball fights, it was hilarious. Wish we had snow like that here...sometimes. Other times I'm very glad we don't haha. 
That night we played one of the games we received - Would You Rather. It is hilarious situation you have to choose between and then some 'challenges' you have to pass. Well, one of the challenges I did was balancing a pickle (yes, you read that right) between my upper lip and nose for an entire round. I did it and passed with flying colors, although the picture taken of me is now on facebook and embarrassing to say the least haha 

That night we ate cannoli's from a bakery in Boston. Let me explain. My mom and her sister's had taken my Grandmother to Boston for her 80th birthday this year. She LOVES it and so it was an awesome vacation for them. One place they had wanted to go was called Mike's Bakery and they were famous for their cannoli's. When they went, however, the line was so long they couldn't even see into the bakery. So they skipped it. My grandmother had said her only regret of that trip had been that they hadn't tried one of the famous cannoli's...hence the amazing Christmas present from the sisters = a box from Mike's Bakery with cannoli making ingredients. It was so much fun :) 




















Tuesday was our trip home - another 9 hour trip. We decided to stop at a Barnes and Noble because 1) we had a gift certificate there and 2) 9 hour road trip would be great with a book on CD! We have been wanting to read the new Dan Brown book so we decided to go ahead and get the CD to give us something to do in the car. SO 3 stops later, after finding out that an app on our iPhone thought 2 other bookstores were Barnes and Noble when they WEREN'T, we ended up in Elizabethtown, KY (like the movie!) to find our BOCD (book on cd...haha). Finally found the place and headed back on our way despite spending 1/2 the trip looking for the B&N ha. So the rest of the way home was spent listening to that and to this day we are still finishing it. We have a few chapters left to go and listen to it about every time we go anywhere in the truck.

The next weekend was New Years weekend and we had some friends over to our new place and played the Wii, watched the Red Bull Challenge, watched the ball drop, and played the Wii some more. 
We did Christmas with my family that weekend and it was funny because they had all already done their 'family christmas' so it was basically me and Chad opening gifts while everyone else watched. It was great thought :) The stockings (no fruit! ha) are always first so we dug into those. Then we got the gifts: the big ones being a camera (yay!!), couch, and gift cards. My mom also got me a necklace that says 'Mother, Daughter, Friend' across a circle (cue the awww's) and a sweater :) Overall a wonderful Christmas and again it is always fun having family time!


OK so there is your condensed version of our Christmas. 2010...hopefully you will make me more capable of finding time to actually  make good, detailed blogs that everyone will enjoy haha. More to come very soon!!

oh yeah thats us in our backyard - yay!!

Christmas has begun!

Well the Christmas banquet at church was spectacular! Sunday night it started at 6. We sat at a table with my parents and one couple from our small group Brady and Erin. The guy who did the commercials with us, James, joined us too. We ate a nice dinner or ham and turkey, salad, cheese mashed potatoes, and green beans. Cake for dessert. Kevin's band Freedom or Fire played while everyone ate. They did a wonderful job!
Let me just say one thing - my dad is hilarious. I can't believe as a teenager I didn't think he was but he is simply hysterical. He got up and did the annual "CrossBridge Toast" which consisted of him banging some spatulas on an actual toaster hanging around his neck. He would do the beat, and then sing the words. EX: "bang bang bang (there was an actual beat though) All around the country from coast to coast...bang bang bang.....people always say what do you like most?....bang....I don't wanna brag, I don't wanna boast...bang....I always tell them, I like toast....bang....YEAH TOAST!!
This last part was screamed out into the audience as they clapped along. This song has been around our family for years but its good to see its getting out and the proper recognition from the masses. The banquet continued, some people did some songs, some played instruments, others read funny poems or versions of the Night Before Christmas, and the commercials were shown. Also they showed my music videos I had been working on for hours. Im pretty proud of those things. Not to be cocky or anything I just had so much fun doing it and it took hours to do and I must say, not bad. And yes, I will post them and the commercials on here eventually.

Brady, Erin, Us!our small group!

So the banquet was great, we went home and then watched A Christmas Story - aka, my favorite christmas movie. I LOVE IT. I was telling someone else this, but I think it is one of those movies you had to grow up watching as a kid? and that is why I think it is so funny. I mean, it does have the humorous lines here and there, but the extent that I think its funny, it really isn't that funny.  ...did any of that make sense?...moving on.

We are deciding on paint colors ... we are trying to decide on a color/theme for the guest bedroom. We have had plenty of ideas, but they are either too extravagant or just aren't exactly what we are looking for. Guess we will see what the final reveal is. Today Chad said something about needing to pack for "next week" and I argued for about 3 minutes that we had 2 weeks to go. Nope, its not this weekend but the next. I can't believe it. There is so much to do...I never want to move at Christmas again.

Happy Thanksgiving :)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I have so much to be thankful for...a husband who is my best friend in the world, a family whom I wouldn't trade for anything, a second family I gained in marrying my best friend, a roof over our heads, great jobs for us both, enough financial security to keep us going, my wonderful friends who keep me going, COFFEE, and so, so much more. It just amazes me when I sit and think about it how much God has blessed our lives :)

Last weekend we headed to Memphis Thursday night to begin our Thanksgiving festivities with them. Last year was Thanksgiving with his side, this year was my side. The flip-flop-family travels. We got there Thursday, Friday we waited on Chelsie (while we waited we played bananagrams - a new found game that is basically a personal scrabble) to get home and when she did me, her, and Sherry left and went grocery shopping. Chad left and went to go find Sequence (yes, another new found game we love) and we all met back at the house later. We played Sequence a TON that night, and the rest of the weekend. Everyone loved it! A hit! Friday night we ordered pizza from a place called Mamma Mia and it was great! Sequence and foosball continuously went on that night. I must say, my skills have vastly improved from the first time I have played foosball...I used to barely be able to even kick the ball with the little plastic faceless man but now I am semi-aiming, semi-shooting, semi-blocking. That's right, I know you are impressed.


After the victorious victory we headed to the kitchen to start cooking. We made green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, hash brown casserole, rolls, turkey of course, cranberry sauce, and Jell-O. I can now successfully make most of the casseroles thanks to you Sherry :)

Dinner was spectacular! We had all that along with sparkling grape juice (one of those things I have loved and will always love...add that to the things I am thankful for at the top haha) and it was just so good. We sat around and talked but woofed down everything, and in a matter of minutes everything was gone. Barely any leftovers - that gives you an idea of how good everything was! We cleaned and then Sequence resumed yet again. Sunday was church - so good to see everyone! Chad's old youth minister's wife is pregnant and not too far along, I forget the exact time amount but a couple months, and has the cute little baby bump and she was just so excited when she was talking about it. It's a boy and she was so cute describing everything. A lot of people were in town for Thanksgiving so we got to see more than the normal amount of people still in school. We went to the college class because Doug is teaching it, and everyone was back from school. It mostly made of Freshman and Sophomores with a few older people but it honestly was so weird listening to everyone talk about school and what points in their life they were at. I felt SO old, and in reality age wise I was only a couple years older than them. It was very interesting just listening. I’m an old grown married lady now, guess I should start realizing it!

Leaving is always so hard! We miss them so much :( Wish we could get up there more than we actually do but at least we did get to see them. I am thankful for that!


Thanksgiving in Birmingham was a little different this year - my mom's parents were originally suppose to come down and we were going to have an all day eating fest, but my grandmother ended up going in the hospital the weekend before Thanksgiving. My Mom drove up to Indiana that Monday to be with her and is actually still there! SO for Thanksgiving it was me, Chad, Dad, Kevin, and Kyle. We went over there; I had made a green bean casserole and took that with me. I had planned on taking sweet potato casserole too but guess what, apparently Alabama does not carry the frozen bag of sweet potatoes that you just microwave and mash up. Went to 3 STORES - no one had them. Weird? Yes. I gave up and just took the green bean stuff over instead of both. It turned out good (thank goodness! first time making it) and Dad was preparing the rest of the feast. He did a WONDERFUL turkey, stuffing, rolls, Jell-O, a stir-fry mix of broccoli corn and mushrooms, mashed potatoes, and desserts. How good - I think I gained about 10 pounds. NO exaggeration there :) We ate around 2 ish, stuffed ourselves, cleaned up, and then ... get ready for this...watched Men In Black. Why? No clue, but it’s what everyone wanted to do. Being the only girl, I didn't have a huge say in the matter. I was out numbered by far. So yes, we watched MIB, then played Sequence and hung out, THEN...get ready for THIS...watched Man in Black 2. How in the world this happened I am still pondering. But yes, a new tradition arose, and as weird as it was, it was quite relaxing I must say. Sitting and staring at a screen for sequel movies about aliens. Happy Thanksgiving :)

my green bean casserole :)

So it was different, but we did enjoy ourselves and I do love my family. Buncha crazies but I love them haha

-Besides that I got my haircut short the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Yep, gave in and did it - chop. It’s not too too different but it takes about 12 minutes less to fix in the mornings so I love it.

-Chad and I are preparing for the move this month. We found out it is most likely going to be the weekend before Christmas (ugh haha) but we are both so ready to be out of our apt that it is totally fine with us. We are picking out our final paint colors, and looking around at couches/loveseats so if you know of anyone getting rid of theirs CALL ME!
-Chad and I got to participate in filming (yep) fake commercials to put in our church's Christmas party this weekend. I've got some footage that I’ll put up as soon as I get home today. I must say Chad is just hilarious. Be prepared to laugh. When they get finalized and after the party I’ll put all the commercials up here for you to see. Can't wait! Preview--->

~LTIL~
Sharpie Pens. I LOVE Sharpie pens. 'nuff said.

UNO Retreat

This past weekend we were chaperones on our church's youth group Fall Retreat. It seems kinda weird to be a chaperone...I feel like I'm not old or wise enough to be guiding these kids haha. Especially since my old youth minister was the speaker for the weekend - just like old days.

Friday I slept in a little (THANK GOODNESS) and woke up and packed, did some necessary around-the-house things, and we headed to the retreat around 3:30 ish. We took a bunch of back country roads and finally got there over an hour later haha. We arrived, and suddenly became in charge of the entire group. How? you ask? I have no idea. I had brought papers saying who still owed money, who was in what room, etc. which apparently nominated me for person-in-charge. We set up the registration table, checked in people as they arrived, gave room assignments, collected money....so THIS is why adults aren’t psyched about retreats. Now I understand.
We figured most everything out, went to our theater room, and got started. The weekend was so much fun! All the kids really had a blast. We did fun 'ice-breaker' games, had lessons, did some singing, and had some free time. And of course, the wonderful cafeteria meals - which I must say, were not as bad as you would think. Bravo kitchen.


I really enjoyed getting to know a bunch of the kids better- we've been 'CrossTrainers' now for a while but this was the first actual trip that we have been on. On Friday night I was kept up until 2 IN THE MORNING talking with another chaperone and some of the girls on the trip. As much as I hated being exhausted the next day, and semi-getting in trouble for being up so late by others there, that was one of my favorite parts of the weekend. These girls are SO MATURE for their age! It was just incredible hearing these views of 13, 14 year olds and going 'wow, yeah I never thought of that'. So fun :)
Another person I loved hanging out with was David's little girl Charity who is 5 years old. She is just precious and one of those little girls everyone just "aww's" at naturally. We clicked and she even cried one time because she couldn't go on a hike with me. How adorable. Charity's sister Madelyn and I became close friends too. She even gave me one of those animal bracelet things - do you know of these?

Saturday night we all went to a bonfire and Madelyn was right beside me the whole time. She was hilarious and it was a lot of fun getting to hang out with her- we looked at constellations, talked about boys, the normal stuff haha. The bonfire was good; some cried, some laughed, but we all had a good time. I just absolutely love being out in a field when there are no lights around and it is pitch dark and you can look up into the sky and it just seems never-ending. I LOVE that feeling.
SO it’s my duty to create a slide show for the retreat. With my wonderful new computer I’ve been messing around trying to do a bunch of cool different things. Hopefully I’ll have it done soon and everyone can see it.
----
Yesterday Chad and Derek (guy from a couple friend at church) decided to go camping. Where? Cheehaw something? Where is that exactly? I have no idea. They went all out too- the big hiking backpacks, the one cup camping coffee maker, food to cook on the fire, etc. They were so excited haha. I'm waiting to hear how that went....
Meanwhile Derek's wife, Megan, and I decided to hang out and be adventurous too. However, our idea of adventurous wasn't being rugged outdoors and now showering for a day, it involved...sushi. That's right. Both of us liked sushi, but didn't really know all the ins-and-outs of it, so we decided to check out a new place that just opened. We pulled up, and saw there were only 2 cars in the parking lot. Yes, it was Thursday night around 7:30, but 2 cars? That made us both second guess our adventure. However, we were not about to back out or else it wouldn't really count as an adventure, right? We went in and there were only 2 other tables occupied. HA. We sat down, got menus, and were handed - hot towels? What are those for? We said thanks and then both just stared at them. We laughed because neither of us knew what to do. So we did nothing, and there the steaming hot towels sat.
Then came the menu. Like I said, neither of us really knew anything about sushi, just liked the few that we had tried before. We paroozed the menu...saw words we barely knew how to pronounce, saw the word 'raw'...California Roll. YES. We can do that. What else? Shrimp and cucumber. That sounds decent. Done. We ordered and as the waiter took our menu, he lifted up the hot towels and put them in our face asking if we wanted them. I looked at him and just said "no, I’m good" and Megan repeated. He chuckled, and left. We cracked up afterwards thinking of what would have happened if we had taken them. Were you supposed to wipe your hands and hand it back? No idea, better to just leave it alone haha.
The sushi turned out pretty good. Not the best ever, but pretty good. California rolls are still the best...of the 4 kinds I've tried :)


After that we headed to good ol' Cheesecake factory, got some dessert, and went to her apartment and watched a movie. It was really fun to hang out with her - we are a lot alike. And it's always fun to have girl time haha. Sleeping last night was weird - it’s always weird sleeping alone now. Takes forever to actually fall asleep. However, getting ready in the morning takes 1/2 the time because I’m not tip-toeing around and shutting drawers silently, etc. That was nice haha.

This weekend...we don't know what we are doing yet. Many possibilities, what will we choose? Stay tuned...

~*Little Things I Love*~


- this one is kind of weird, but I love when you get a new ball point pen and it has that tiny ball on the end of it that you have to push off before you can use it haha ~

PICTURES!!

Yep, Kevin ripped his pants...
