Love Love Love

Here it is the end of Febuary and I have written much here in a while so I thought I would do a little post (again.)

First of all, like the picture? This was my look for the Winter Formal that my office threw lately. My husband even bought a suit for the ocassion ( or maybe just an excuse to buy one) and we ended up staying for only an hour...alas we are not the ritzy type.

Valentines day was nice but somewhat uneventful...

So on to March, and much will be going on! First of all it will be Brighton's 3rd birthday...*sighP no longer a baby. The day after as silly as it may sound it will be our 8th year anniversary...we have been married for 5 years but acctually got together 8 years ago. It's gone by so fast and I know most people don't celebrate thier original get together anniversary after they get married but we are still so in love...

How did I know he was the one? Well one night while we were out the subject came up about us being a couple. I was still seeing my high school sweetheart casually, but we didn't want the same things. I was still holding out for him though so I explained this to Brian . He didn't even blink an eye. He told me to talk to for mentioned "sweetie" and see what he wanted.No matter what he would be there for me and he would wait for me if he had to. :) That's what hooked me, I made the choice to be with him that night and we have been together ever since.

"Wait, what about your high school sweetheart?"

Good question. We stayed friends for a while after that and eventually he got married and has a couple kids of his own. We haven't spoken in a while and I still hold a lil soft spot for him but that is the way life goes.

Anyone have a simular experiance? How did you know your honey was the one?

Waterfalls

You will notice that when I get the chance I love to take road trips...and pictures. Living in the part of Oregon I live in, I don't understand how any Oregonian can not be an out doors person. Even just a little bit. An hour in one direction we have mountains, an hour the other direction we have the coast. As long as you have a vehicle that can make the trip and the spare gas it is a nice way to waste the day away.



Tuesday we packed up the trust north west standerd S.U.V. and went up to Sahalie and Koosah Falls. http://web.oregon.com/hiking/sahalie_falls.cfm

the sign at the begining of the trail

There was still some snow and ice up there, keep in mind I live in the Willamette Valley which means that it usually doesn't snow more then a couple an inches a year down here so when we want to see snow we drive up to the mountains.

My daughter was in school so we took my son.

so pretty there! If you get a chance, stop by.

until next time....thanks for viewing

Style? What style?

So upon lots of consideration this morning I came to the realization that I just can not stick with one "Style". I love love love reading the vintage style blogs and will still continue to make attempts...but alas for this girl it is a little too much up keep. I'm not that high maintance, give me a hooded sweatshirt and a pair of jeans any day!

So where does that leave me? Out of the box. I am a little bit of everything. As described on my myspace page I am a foo foo bad ass red neck hippi in a insecure shell...that fits. Just thought I would share :)
