Meaggy on new bed...Meaggy sitting pretty!

Summer is here and we are sooo ready for the cool  Fall weather to arrive, nothing really to report only that since I last posted, we had a few Birthdays come and go. Jason-Daniels 6yr  milestone and Jude-Alexander’s first milestone…He is one years old! Wow how time flies, it really makes you feel alot older and also makes you wonder ok, two roads ahead which one I want to take. One nice and predictable, the other unexpected, not so predicatable and well, really as me thinking. So alot of soul searching these past few months. Did  I ever figure out, well I guess we will see!

Christy & Jude

Happy Birthday Christy,wife, mother, sister, friend, family, beautiful and genuine. Those are the words that come to mind when I think of Christy. Time is passing and now you are a wife and a new mother.  It’s been a real joy knowing the woman responsible for bringing  joy and happiness to my nephew’s life. I look at you both and realize you are what others strive to have.  I mean, who can say they married their best friend. (of course, I can-ha!)  We love you so much and hope Joey, Jude & Liam make it a special day for you! We owe you a dinner, from like last year, and now this year, we hope we can make that happen this time around. Enjoy your day!  So kick off of your shoes and have Joey spoil you!  I chose this pic b/c it shows all of your traits that make you who you are, a wonderful person! Here’s to “T”.

Daddy's Girl

 

Meaggy turns 4 today, I can’t believe how time has passed. I remember the first day we got her. She really chose us. There was another dog there that was a bit rounder, bigger eyes, but sadly he was a boy. We wanted a girl, So Meaggy sees us looking at her brother and then walks up to Tom and lifts her head, and that’s all it took. She then preceded to walk around us, as she was deciding whether or not she wanted to come home with us. The ride home was a big surprise as she never cried or wimpered. She slept the whole night in her crate, of course now she’s taken over our bed. Although today Meaggy has full reign of the house. We are glad to have our girl in our lives. We had some close calls with her eating socks, underwear and grass, and toys. But we are very fortunate to have her here today, and hoping for a really long time. She is the sweetest dog, and Tom and I value each day with her. We love her so much b/c even after the hardest day, when you see those precious eyes glancing at you…it makes you not sweat the small stuff. Happy Birthday baby girl! We love you!

Adams Tea Party 2009

So all the Tax payers got together all around the USA to protest the governments allocation of funds used to help bail out all these companies (Fannie Mae/GM/Chrysler-etc) Well, my In laws decided to use their rights and protest. They were mentioned in the Free Press, Buda Texas. I thought I’d share this will you all. Hysterical and Monumental.

Seattle, Downtown at night.

I went to go visit my sister in Seattle and I had a wonderful time.  The city was like nothing I’d ever seen being from Texas. This trip allowed me to bond more with my sister as if that is possible. But also get out and explore the good ol USA and as she likes to say, the west coast. We were able to see alot of the local scenery and of course all the shopping  jaunts around Seattle, Wa. Queen Anne, Greenlake, The troll, Pacific Center Mall, and Northgate Mall. There is so many Nordstrom’s there. Here is a little preview of what I saw. I will add more later…I have to go eat some chow!

Las Vegas 2008

Ok, so it’s my birthday today, and other than getting another year older. I actually like my b-day! I guess b/c I can always remember that 7 years ago, on April 09/10  2002.  Thomas Daniel Adams, asked me out on a date! Little did I know that he would become my boyfriend and my husband. So other birthdays were fun and memorable. But my birthday often makes me reflect on how the best was yet to come 10 days later. I also have my nephew Joshua’s b-day on our official first date. So I can’t ever forget how special that day is!  well, as I mentioned in the previous post, I am off to see my sister Sara and hope the we get to enjoy my b-day and go to a nice dinner. So, I’ll  keep you posted!  However,  I wanted to savor the moment and appreciate this moment in my life.  Even though I am getting a wee bit older, it’s worth it b/c each year brings precious memories, and makes me yearn for those to come.

Sawdust & Myself in Las Vegas!

So my B-day is just around the corner, I am thrilled this year in particular b/c I am going to see my sister Sara! I have never been to Seattle, Wa and I am excited to see where she has been dwellling the past 3-4 years since she has been away from Texas.  She resides in Seattle, and use to live in Tacoma, Yuma, AZ. So my sister has been quite the nomad. But I am thrilled to see all that Seattle has to offer. She is going to show me the shopping aspect and the Space Needle and the famous Market..something like that. I bought a new media card, so I am hoping we can share updated pics of us. I can’t believe my b-day is here…..I think it is time Tom and I got serious about having a baby, tick tock, tick tock….I think it’s time. Oh well, no pressure right! LOL!

So a friend of mine asked me if I was on Facebook, I was like no… What is it? Its’ sort of like Myspace but for grown  folks. Needless to say I joined FB and LOOOOVVVE it!  So blogging and FB is going to be a challenge but getting better. So far the friends have not gotten out of hand. Some people have like 150-350 friends..come on now! You know they don’t speak to them at all. It’s like me going to the grocery store and saying, hey you want to be my friend on FB! Pretty pathetic, don’t you think? So my FB is stricly for close friends and family. That’s it, oh and people I have worked with, good for references, if I ever lose my job, or try other job opportunities. So my name is Belinda and I’m a FB’er.

Juicy Couture Lock up Satchel.

Bag: Juicy Couture Lock-Up Satchel 

Inside: wallet, Viva laJuicy perfume , Pink-berry, brush, camera, and make-up, shuffle.

Mood: Anxious about work, and economy. Something has to change. I’d like to retire someday!

Turns out, I have a bit of a handbag problem.I switched out my bag once more and then realized along with loving the looks of this back, it is a good shoulder and arm bag. It can also be used as a carry on. I guess it is  a multi-purpose satchel, and  I love it. I love Juicy Couture, it is listed as a luxury handbag or fashion line, but I tend to get these bags on the clearance rack.  I figure, if it’s sold out then I don’t need it, and if it wants a good home it will be waiting for me to find it!  8-10x it is there waiting for me to pick it up and give it a happy home! Bargain shopping fo high end stuff is worth the wait!

Lady Gaga!

So this is what I am enjoying right now on the radio. I like to see if any new artist is worth me spending 10-13 bucks on them for their CD. She has a numberof songs that are catchy and good cardio for the gym. She is an odd looking woman, and strange to look at due to her lack of style, she dresses like she belongs in a chamber, and the other 1/2 of the time like a cartoon. Maybe she is going for the whole “I am really unique in my own special way” ok, I’ll go with that. All I can says if PPokekker Face, mmy PPokker Face!
