28th Birthday

My Honey Boo in the kitchen making all my goods. Dinner and cupcakes per my request (demand). He is an angel! We ate dinner and watched Hunger Games and Ice Age Continental Drift.

 I think I ate three or four cupcakes after blowing them out. They tasted AMAZING! It felt like I was eating empty calories! YUM!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ME!! I guess birthdays are like a new year to celebrate your life..so TWENTY-EIGHT-heres to a good year!

Saturday is a Special Day!

Its the day we celebrated my PRE-BIRTHDAY!

We can cross off this southern restaurant from our bucket list. Evs took me for my birthday celebration!

Another thing we did for my birthday was I got a haircut! 13.5 inches GOODBYE!! Its been 4 years since I have had my hair this short. I like the change though. I have always wanted an A-line and I am excited I had the guts to do it! I couldn't exactly change my mind after she started hacking away.

We also went to a Pensacola Ice Flyers game. It was both of our first live Hockey game and we had a great time. It was a lot of fun! We saw them break one of the glass panels, a gloves and gear off kinda throw down, lots of people getting thrown in the penalty box, lots of guys getting checked, some amazing goals scored, a proposal during period 2 & 3 and a WIN 5-2! We hope to go back before the season is over.

The Lowdown as of Late

There hasn't been too much going on around here. I continue to volunteer coach at Navarre high school for the Girls Varsity soccer team. Our record is 5-1-1 in our District. We are heading into the last week of the post season, District Semi-Finals. Game tonight and tomorrow and if we win, Friday finals here we come! Evan continues to work his heart out at work. He really enjoys it. The past few weeks he had to cover for his boss because she had a fall and hit her head, leaving her with a bad concussion (Athletic Trainers know all about concussions). She was out for a couple weeks and Evan was thrown into the fire to pick up her job while he was on a rotation where he had been working with another Doctor. He was nervous and unsure, but I sure believed in him. His boss came back and is not 100% so he is still helping her get back on track. I am sure proud of him! In other news the job search continues and apparently having a college degree and a ton of experience all around hasn't made me the "IDEAL" candidate, whatever that may be. While browsing Craigslist for local jobs I came across this:

This seriously gave me a little bounce in my step as I continue to search for a job and keep the faith that the right one comes along. 

Hobbies

Jade has taken up some modeling. She is hoping to get her first gig soon. 

We have been exercising more, which means resting more.. for the doggies anyways.

happy twenty-thirteen!

Headed to downtown Pensacola,FL for the NYE Pelican Drop. Walked around looking at the open shops. Peopled watched drunkards. Inhaled far too much second hand smoke. Listened to live bands. Danced. Sang. Ate new foods. And called it a night before the "Pelican" even dropped. Figured it was safer to be off the road before midnight.

Fried Gator on a stick

Came home and finished up our 3 day marathon and watched the final movie in The Lord of the Rings trilogy (made it to bed around 3:30 am). Safe to say it was a great night.

 Paused our movie to watch the Moon Pie drop on tv (live in Mobile, Alabama) Woo hoo! Got a midnight kiss and returned to the movie!

Make it a great year!
