The Best Thing about Christmas

Everybody knows the best thing about Christmas- spending time with the family and celebrating Our Savior's birth but there's another best thing about Christmas. One that I look forward to throughout the whole year. On Christmas morning I open my wonderful gifts, and enjoy with splendor as I watch the parents and brother open their presents. Once the main presents are opened there's only one thing left to do----open our stockings....boxes. That's right, you heard me boxes. My mother can't stuff all the little things she buys in a stocking so she gets copy paper boxes and fills it up mainly with food and candy. When I was little and in the church nursery they gave us the cheesy cracker snack-Goldfish. Once I put the treat in my mouth I realized it was true love. That has been my favorite food ever since. So on Christmas morning, I open up my box and it has a huge carton of Goldfish-forget all the candy. All I can say now is hurry up Christmas so I can get my Goldfish! Lolz

My Favorite Christmas Decoration

My favorite Christmas decoration would have to be this small musical angel statue. It plays a beautiful melody but not a well known Christmas carol. It is so beautiful. When I was little, I would always play it during the Christmas season...over and over and over again. My mother would sometimes have to hide it because I played it so much. haha.

Another Christmas decoration that I really enjoy are my baby ornaments. At my house we have a tradition. Josh puts up the tree, mom fluffs it and strings the lights on it, and I decorate, while Dad hangs lights on the outside of the house. When I decorate the tree I have a "system" for decorating it. I put all my ornaments and my favorites on the left side of the tree where on Christmas morning I sit and open presents. I hang my brothers ornaments and his favorites on the right side of the tree where he always sits. Then I place the rest of the pretty ornaments wherever there is room left, except for the back. The back is where the ugly ornaments go, such as this old creepy Santa Claus ornament....I swear it's the weirdest and ugliest ornament ever!

I have a lot of favorite Christmas decorations, but those would just happen to be my favorites.

Thanksgiving 2009

Ok so I feel like I haven't blogged in forever....maybe because I haven't. Anyways I thought I would catch up blogging and blog about my Thanksgiving even though it's almost Christmas time. So my Thanksgiving break was a good one. My brother got to come home for the break and we hung out and watched his favorite movie together-Kung Pow Enter the Fist....ok just saying that is the dumbest movie ever made----I felt like I was losing IQ points as the movie progressed but it was funny and refreshing spending quality time with Josh. On the actual Thanksgiving day, I went to my great aunt's for our thanksgiving lunch. There was a long table filled with the usual Thanksgiving meal plus more family specialties. After stuffing myself till I was about to burst I hung out with my cousin Ashley who's also in college. As we were catching up on old times and looking through all the black Friday ads, we got on the subject of New Moon. Ash is a movie fanatic. She goes to a lot of opening nights and has like almost every movie ever made. She saw New Moon on the night it came out. She liked it so much since she's read the series 3 times starting on her 4th time around. She decided that we needed to go see it so after we left my aunt's we went to Malco for the movie. The movie was ok---I like Jacob better so of course I didn't really like the movie but it wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be. After the movie we just hung out. I think that was the best part of my Thanksgiving, having Mar and Josh time as well as Mar and Ash time. It was the perfect way to spend Thanksgiving Break.

A Christmas Carol

SO this past weekend my family was getting into the Christmas mood. My brother comes home and he's pumped for Christmas. He gets so into all the holidays but he goes all out during the Christmas Season. He wanted to go see A Christmas Carol in 3-d on Friday night---so we went. My dad was working so it was just me, Momma, and Josh which was refreshing since we hadn't had a time to hang out since Josh went to college. Anyways, my brother, being the genius he is, picked up the wrong paper hence we were sitting in the theatre an hour early-gee thanks Joshy, gee thanks. Well the movie was good-it didn't stray far from the book at all, which I enjoyed. On Saturday, we were preparing our house for all our Christmas decorations meaning re-arranging furniture. Our goal was to have our tree up this weekend, but the cleaning took us longer than expected. Then on Sunday, me and mom were pulling up in our driveway coming home from church, and in our living room bay window we saw Josh putting up the Christmas tree. WE both thought he would've been gone by 8:00. So we entered the house singing, "Oh Christmas Tree" Josh smiled then said,"Don't sing because we both suck at singing"...isn't he sweet!? Well regardless to say this past weekend has brought in my Christmas mood so hurry up Christmas!!!!!!!
By the way----Never EVER go to the movies when a twilight movie comes out....it was soooooooooooooooo crowded!!!!!!!!!!

My Push-Up Bra Will Help Me Get My Man

This is the best You-Tube video ever made. My best friend, Madolyn, showed it to me a long time ago. It is so funny. It's about a lady, Tracy, who trys to go and get her man Peter, back. She's video taping this while she is driving which makes it ten times funnier watching her put on her little lip balm, while yelling at people to say on their side. If you want or need a good laugh-watch it!!!!!
Peace and Blessins, Peace and Blessins

Funny Lunch Conversation...Major Lol Moment

Have you ever had moments during lunch when you take a big bite of whatever then tend to spew it out because somebody near you said something ridiculously crazy? Well I think everyone has to have those kind of moments at some point during their lives. Well one of those crazy moments happened to me and all my friends at lunch today. Every lunch table around us I swear turned and looked at us like we were crazy...and I won't deny it- we are. To everyone who reads my blog and sits next to me in lunch knows about this situation but I do not feel the need to repeat. I have been thinking about that lunch conversation all third and now 4th period. I think that conversation will be forever remembered to the end of eternity!!!!!! Man, good times-all I can say now is Thank You Stephanie Schwartz.

: )

Thanksgiving.....HURRY UP!!!!

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays...Christmas is my alltime favorite though. I mean what's wrong with Thanksgiving? Turkey, parades,stuffing, football, and did I mention TURKEY! The food on Thanksgiving is so delicious especially when my grandmother are in the kitchen. Also in my case, I get to see all the family that I haven't seen since the last birthday meal or whatever in the summer. And then my favorite part...when you get asked what you want for christmas. Then after that wonderful holiday I count down the days till christmas. Also during Thanksgiving break is when we put up our Christmas tree- which is too much fun. All I can say now is hurry up Thanksgiving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

November 13th

Today is November 13th, 2009. Today is a very special day, but it's not a national holiday, no- it's my mother's birthday. In my family, mom should have a national holiday named after her because she's that amazing. I hear all the time, in the halls, from friends conversations, and elsewhere how people hate their mom's or I hear stories about how they are very disrespectful to them. That is one of my biggest pet peeves---I can't stand it. My mother is my best friend and it pains me to see people being so mean. I have to resist the urge to scream or tackle those certain people....haha.
Anyways...enough about my little rant there, when I got to school my friend LB decided to make my mother a birthday card. She has done this for the past 2 years, but this year she got all my friends to sign it as well. Lb makes my mom's birthday special every year...haha. With this card I hope it will make up for me not having a gift...oops! lol
Guess that means me and dad are in the doghouse...again...
: )

.....My least favorite subject.....

SO today I was walking to the 700's and there was a couple of girls talking about how they love math. I'm sorry but I despise math. I know it's important and stuff but me and math just don't click---sorry Mr Jacob Merimee. lol
Maybe one of the reasons I hate math is because I have it first period and my brain isn't always functioning. Or because it's only me and Joseph Powers in there. Our class is filled with freshmen and sophomore so that makes me feel stupid...
Well anyways I needed a last idea for a blog so this is it!
***again another cheesy blog***
: )

Trail of Treats

Last night, I went and helped my mother at the annual Trail of Treats. We got there to set up at a little before four and stayed till past 9. WE gave out candy to over 2,500 trick or treaters and when I got home last night I just crashed. Although it was a ton of fun I was glad to be home. I saw many, many costumes such as transformers, frogs, and dead..."things". I swear I had never given out that much candy before in my life. There were some really annoying kids then some really sweet kids. This little girl commented on my hair and said it was very beautiful....needless to say she was my favorite! This was my first experience on trail of treats and it was so much fun I might as well do it again next year, but I will remember to bring more candy!!!!

Hot glue guns don't make friends....

So last night I was finishing up my English poster. I was pretty much gluing on my last picture. as i was flipping the James Dean picture onto my poster, my right index finger slipped into the hot, hot, HOT glue. I shrieked and flung the picture off my finger. The picture landed on my laptop which was playing music nearby. I screamed some more as I ripped off the molded dot of glue that was already hard on my finger. I really didn't know that glue could dry so fast! AS i peeled off the blob of glue I noticed my finger was bright red. It felt as if it was on fire and had a pulse of it's own it was throbbing so hard. I ran and stuff it under the water faucet trying to relieve myself and cool it down. It worked for a bit but the pain came roaring back. I then noticed that a blister was starting to form. Great....So as of today, I have a nasty blister on my finger and the remains of glue on my laptop key, and I will never use a hot glue gun again! OK, I was just kidding, I probably will have to do it again at some point in my life, but I will be extra-extra careful next time!!!!!!!!!

"Some days you're the dog, some days you're the hydrant."

"Some days you're the dog, some days you're the hydrant." - Unknown

I found that quote and I thought it was cute...anyways back to this blog. I needed a blog theme and I was thinking about things that happened recently and could think of nothing except for last night when I let my dogs in and "my" dog, Jezzy, came in and slept in my lap. I was sitting on the couch reading a book, and her being on my lap just put a cherry on the top for my comfort. It was like only me and her were in the world--so peaceful, which is just what I needed for the last day of Fall Break. I think I've always had a dog, as of right now I have three.(Rocky, Chipper and Jezzy) Dogs are the best animal in my opinion- they are always by your side and so sweet. Although getting past the puppy stage is a pain, the end result of having a loyal dog is totally worth it.

***Cheesy blog I know*** : )

Fall Break

Ok so fall break was a huge sigh of relief. It was the perfect time for a break. I was getting so restless and just wanted to slack on my work. So when October 19th rolled around I was ecstatic! Now I didn't go anywhere fancy just stayed home, spent time with the family,hung with friends, and cleaned : ( Why is it on breaks parents spring all this work on you? I'm just sayin....my parents always do that. They think that just because I'm off from school that I'm not doing anything. As that may have been true a few days, the other days were spent on school work. Nasty, nasty schoolwork- I might add. Well anyways after working a bit on school work I got to eat lunch with my great-grandparents-that's always fun! Also I went shopping in Evansville and that's always fun. So Fall break 2009 was fun....and yet it ended oh so very soon.

Carving Pumpkins..... : )

One of my favorite Halloween memories is carving pumpkins with my older brother and my mom. Running through rows and rows of pumpkins with Josh trying to find the biggest and best one there was. Once we found IT we would bring it home and rinse it off. Then we would cut open the top and pull out all the seeds and gooey stuff. That was always my favorite part-digging your hands in and feeling the cool stringy inside! We would wash the seeds, put them on a pan, and then baked them. My brother would always trace the face and mom would always cut it out. We had some weird faces throughout the years with Josh holding the marker ; ) but they would always be cute and everyone would remark on how precious they were. For the last few years we haven't really been getting pumpkins but I will always remember the good, fun, Halloween times.

Just Plain Creepy...

Ok so in the spirit of halloween, I was looking up ghost stories or frightening stories. Well on this one website I found this story and I just got disturbed by it so I thought I would share it with everyone. It's called the Little White Dog.

There was an old woman who had no family still living. Her only friend was a little white dog who went everywhere with her - with one exception. The dog loved the fireplace in winter, and after the old woman went to bed he would sometimes go and lie in front of the warm coals. Usually though, the dog slept at the very edge of the bed on a throw rug. The woman wouldn't allow the dog on the bed with her, but if she became frightened or had a nightmare, she would put her hand down to the little white dog and he would lick it reassuringly. One night the woman was reading her newspaper just before going to sleep. She shivered and pulled the comforter up around her as she read that a mental patient had wandered off from a nearby hospital. No one knew if the patient was dangerous of not; he was a suspect in the murders of several women who had lived alone. The woman turned out the lights and tried to sleep, but she was frightened, and tossed and turned fitfully. Finally, she reached down to where the little white dog slept. Sure enough, a warm, wet tongue began to lick her hand. The woman felt reassured and safe, and left her hand dangling off the bed as she turned and settled in comfortably. She opened her eyes for a moment and looked through the open door into the living room. There in front of the fireplace, sat her little white dog, gazing at the coals and wagging his tail. Down beside the bed, something was still licking her hand.

Down the drain with all those fears..well sort of

Ah-the younger years, what great times. I remember all the fun times, but I also remember the worst. I was afraid of the dark-like most little girls. I would always make my momma or daddy turn on my little night light. I would center myself in the middle of my bed and lay perfectly still. If I was to wake up, I would grab all my stuffed animals and put them all around me so it(whatever i imagined it to be like monsters or burglars etc.) wouldn't "get me". As I have grown up I lost fears but gained some more, like fitting in, and the fear of being rejected. The one thing that I've always feared was flushing toilets. I would flush and run! I truly hate, i will repeat, HATE automatic flushing toilets. I've hated those things ever since I was little and on an airplane...I thought I was going to get sucked down...yeah getting a little to personal there :)
Well as time goes on fears may change but there will always be a fear of something.

"Everyone wants to be loved every once in a while"

This past Wednesday night at church, I had the opportunity to work with the little kids by being a cashier in the rewards store. One of the greatest ministries at my church is the bus ministry. The bus picks up kids from every walk of life. As we opened up the store I saw the faces of these kids light up. Our merchandise was gently used toys so it wasn't that big of a deal but then that got me thinking...what are these kids lives really like? Throughout the night I was amazed at what I saw. Kids walking through the door dresses in dirty, worn clothes, their hair greasy and "ragged." On some of them there were bruises maybe from clumsiness but I'm guessing not likely. The thing was these kids were so sweet and cherished everything. All they were looking for was an hour of love and devotion. There's this little guy, Deacon, who is about 4 and he can't talk-he points and grunts, just because his mom didn't interact with him or give him the time of day. Now I feel like it's my job to care for these kids even if nobody else does because everybody does want to be loved every once in a while, and I'm so fortunate to have a good life that I often take for granted.

Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head........

Lately here in good 'ole Kentucky there has been a lot of rain and cloudy days. People have been complaining about how much it rains and they wish for it to stop....well I DON'T!!!!!! Rainy and overcast days are my favorite-especially on Saturdays. On those days I grab a book a curl up on the couch in front of our bay window. To me that's one of the most relaxing things to do. Hearing raindrops hit the window or roof of a building just makes something inside of me peaceful. No don't get me wrong I love sunny days as well but I would pick rainy days over those bright, bright, bright sunshiny days. = ]

Sittin in Drama

Ok so I have drama 3rd period on blue days. I love drama. This year I got on a crew-something I've never done before and to tell you the truth, it sucks. Our play this fall is a Christmas play called Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus. I'm on the crew house and publicity so I make flyers, the playbill, and thats about it. I've already done everything house and publicity does so I'm pretty darn bored. If she asks me to do something I will it can be so boring....but I'm not complaining---this is when i finish all my english homework that is due next period....just kidding....well not really. LOL.

Driving Little Miss Marley.......

So last night, I was told I would have to ride the bus to school in the morning. I hate riding the bus in the morning----its so crowded and i get to school later than I like to. Well as i was turning my lights off my dad poked his head in and said, "What time are you getting to school?" I said I didn't know, and he just smiled his big grin at me. "I'll take you into school tomorrow morning little girl"

"Really!?Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!" I was so excited. I even bounded down the stairs. After that I couldn't go to bed. You see I love when my daddy takes me into school. In one of my earlier blogs I talked about my drives with mother being peaceful. Well with my daddy its loud and full of energy. I guess you can say it wakes me up. = ] As soon as I get seated and buckled my dad turns on the radio to an oldies station. Now a few years ago I hated the oldies and I would've been the kid sinking lower and lower into the front seat, but for the past 3 years or so me and my daddy have gotten really close especially in the summers when hes off more-that's where I feel in love with the oldies. OK-so back to this morning....once we pulled onto 231 we were already belting out lyrics. Once the song was over he turned down the radio and we talked and laughed, then when another song came on up goes the volume. One of my favorite oldies songs came on and it was by Tony Orlando and Dawn----"Knock Three Times." My dad gets very enthused when he listens to "his oldies". So he was dancing and like practically yelled the lyrics. That cracks me up and of course I'm sitting right beside him doing the same thing. : )

As we are getting closer and closer to school, Dolly Parton comes on the radio with her famous hit, "I Will Always Love You" I actually like that song and my dad loves Dolly so again we belted it out. Now I'm an Edmonson and Edmonson's have big mouth so I feel sorry for the cars that were beside us at the red light. LOL. By the time we got to school I had the biggest smile on my face as I said goodbye to my dad. I love my dad and our drives together...what can i say? Like Father Like.....DAUGHTER!

Money Money Money,,,,MONEY

Everyone loves money--right? Well of course they do. It helps you do everything and get everything you need. But it's not all that important. To make me happy, I don't need all the newest accessories, clothes, or whatever--just take a look at my cell phone-lol. I'm happy with everything I have in my life. Now true, I would like to have some for those new objects, they aren't worth fighting for. Money has a very big impact on life. Sometimes it's all people can think about-they just have to have EVERYTHING. I think that's why our economy is in the gutter. So in a way it does make the world go round but maybe it will be going spiraling downward here in a few years.

Best Friends

Everyone has a best friend. Best friends are always there to cheer somebody up or just to hang with. Without my best friends I would be lost. I can talk to them about anything and vice versa. I was reading a book the other day and it had a pair of twins and they could finish each others sentences and stuff. I can do that with my best friends-it's so funny. It's like we really are sisters and we just got sepearted at birth. I have three best friends....Madolyn, Katie, and Kim. Madolyn goes to Daviess County High School-which sucks but she lives the closest to me so we tend to hang out...A LOT. In elementary school, our teachers called me, katie, and madolyn the three musketeers. Katie is the friend I've known the longest and we have tons of fun. Kim is a year behind me in school but we go to church together so thats good. We have been through so much and I know that they will always be there for me. I'm just so thankful for them.

Laughter... = ]

I just love to laugh. I laugh all the time---seriously. Especially on the Internet I say lol, or haha after everything I say--it's a habit. Also my laugh is very distinctive-everyone knows me by my laugh. It feels so good to laugh especially if you've had a bad day. That's one of the greatest feelings to me when I've had a crappy day then I talk to my friends and they make me laugh. I truly think laughter is contagious because at lunch the other day me and my friend Ashley were reminiscing about our middle school days. She started laughing then I started laughing and the next thing we knew the whole lunch table was laughing. This was a fun blog...LOL! = ]

We're Having a Party...A Search Party That Is

Last night was a very interesting night let me tell ya. It was about 6:30 and I was eating dinner at church like I do every Wednesday night. But right as I was taking a big cheesy bite of lasagna goodness, there was an announcement saying an elderly lady with Alzheimer's disease was missing. Now I go to church in McLean County, so everyone knew who this lady was. Ms. Underwood(the missing lady) lived within a mile from my church so instead of having services and youth we went to join the search. As soon as me and my mom pulled onto 231 we saw flashing lights everywhere. When we got to the house there were already trucks and 4 wheelers, firetrucks, police officers, and ordinary people like us there to join in and give a helping hand. I think the whole county was there to tell you the honest truth. From younger kids to older men we went on the search through weeds and stick-tights. Knowing my luck I had worn a cute somewhat dressy shirt, and my flip-flops. Let me tell you flip-flops are not the best type of shoe to be wearing during a search party. We searched and searched but couldn't find anything. The firefighters had already taken thermal images of the surrounding area and around the lake. They came up blank. Before ya knew it, there were mules with flashlights searching as well....now that's a sight to see-i mean you know you're in McLean county when you have mules as four wheelers. = ] The darkness was closing in on us and time was running out. Since we rushed from church nobody was really prepared and we didn't have many flashlights so most of the people with out flashlights went home...me included, because there just wasn't much we could do after it got dark. So I went home and took a shower because who knows what all I got into over there, and all of the sudden our phone rings. "Thank the Lord she's been found!" my mom says in joy, as she hangs up the phone after having a brief conversation with our pastor. I think the whole county rejoiced in finding her. She was going to be alright-she wasn't seriously injured or anything like that. So i went to bed in peace...but it got me thinking...if I was lost would people be looking for me? Well I sure hope so!!!!! Lol. = ]

Right Back To Where I Started....

" You’re always in my heart You’re always on my mind And when it all becomes too much You’re never far behind And there’s no one that comes close to you Could ever take your place ‘Cause only you can love me this way "
That is just the chorus of one of my favorite songs and it's sung by Keith Urban. Now I'm not a fan of Keith Urban at all, but this song is one that relates to me and I think anybody in love. So there's this guy that I've liked-well- for a LONG time and everywhere I go he is on my mind. Like there are things I see in everyday life and I remember something that leads to him. IT'S CRAZY! I've tried to get him off my mind I really have but it just doesn't work. I've tried to like other guys---but that plan REALLY failed. So right now in my life I have no clue what to do next....I'm just a stick in the mud. I would say I'll move on, but I know exactly where I'll end and that's right back to where I started.....

A day to remember

OK so when I was younger and I went to the funeral home for my friends grandmother's funeral I was jealous of her riding in the funeral limo. I thought it would have been so cool. Well now that I'm older and I've now ridden in it-it's not that fun. This past weekend my grandfather passed away at the age of 85. All of my family knew it was bound to happen because in fall 2008 he was diagnosed with a large aortic aneurysm. So when we got the call Friday night that my grandad was having serious seizures we knew his time here on earth was coming to an end. Even through the tears there was joy and laughter. On Sunday when we had "family time" alone we were watching his memorative video and we were laughing at the good times we had with him. When we came out the people at the funeral home said that was the most laughter they had ever heard there. I realized through this experience I had great friends and an amazing church family. I can't thank everyone enough. Even though he's "gone" I know he will always be in my heart.

Livin in a small town.....

So I was on facebook the other night and I see people who recieve these "smiles" from their friends and above that they put, "These smiles make my day.." Well you know what makes my day? Driving through Utica, Ky every morning. I've lived in that small town ever since I was in diapers.(Thank you LB for that suggestion)Driving through Utica in the morning is very peaceful to me. You see the town start to wake up...well half of the town is already up by then. You hear the birds chirping, the sun rising, the Thompson's getting all their tractors ready for the day ahead. BUT my favorite place to drive by is JR's Market.,..also called Miriam's. Miriam's is the hang out for most everyone in the morning...mainly older gentlemen ...hence my grandfather and all his friends. Lol. So everytime I pass there a whole bench-ful of elderly men wave at me and my mother. That really makes my day...and sometimes when we have the windows down they shout good morning to Larry's grandaughter. It's just a sight to see...let me tell you. I love living in a town where everyone knows who you are and they know your whole family. Out in the country you don't have those big city lights or loud noise...Us Uticians go to sleep to the sound of crickets in the night. I would never want to live anywhere else but in a small town....

Cause I had a bad day.....

Ok so why does life have to be so difficult? I mean I have good days and bad days and well today was totally a bad day. The house is now lonely because my older brother is now at college, but yesterday we moved him in so the day started out and i was dead tried. First period was IB Biology and it was ok---sort of boring until Mr. Bates cracked a joke about the game Battleship--inside joke between me and jo...lol. Then 2nd period I didnt do anything like usual-realtionships. Third was Advanced Drama and I'm on a crew that I dont like...at all. Then came lunch-usually I'm exctied but today not as much....I wasn't truly happy until 4th period- English! I seriously love english it is my favorite class. One because Mrs Matthews is amazing but secondly most of my friends are in here.....it was just my cup of tea. I love english! = ]

Like Mother Like Daughter....Oh my!

"Marley you sound just like your mother."
I hear this every time I answer the phone. Me and my mom are like the two "annoying" girls in school that always talk and giggle. My mom is seriously my best friend even though we make fun of each other and get on each other's nerves its just a certain type a love that I can't really explain. Back to the whole gigling part- my mom is known for her laugh---it's embarassing actually. I can be in Wal-mart or somewhere and I can hear her laugh a mile away, but that's another thing we have in common. When I laugh, I laugh loud. All of my friends are telling me I'm begining to laugh just like her... oh boy. We love alot of the same things- I guess it's just in my genes but oh well. We love to have movie nights, talk about life and enjoy the outdoors. As much as I try to deny I'm becoming my mother I know it's just the truth coming out...so prepare yourselves! HAHA = ]

My Family....

" A family is like a forest, when you are outside it is dense, when you are inside you see that each tree has it's place." Ghana
Family is the most important thing in my life. Without my family I would be lost in this world the are my foundation.
I am a daughter, a sister, a cousin, and a granddaughter. My parents are crazy but I love them anyways.I think everyone says that but I mean it! I only have one sibling and his name is pain in the butt....uh, I mean Josh.(age-18) Nah- I'm just kidding, Josh is pretty cool but he is getting ready to head off to college this weekend actually. With only four people in my house and being stuck with them everyday you get to see how much we love and care for each other. sometimes at school or where ever and I've had a bad day all I want to do is go home and talk to somebody.
