A Realistic Valentines Day List

Since Valentines Day is approaching, I thought it would be a fun to blog about things that I love. Sometimes it is good to sit down and reflect on things that make you happy and to remind you to be thankful for them. Some are serious, some are silly but they are all important to me!

I love me some Jesus! If you know Him then you know why I love Him. If you do not know Him, I would be honored to tell you about Him.
I love my husband. I must admit there are days that I find solace in imagining smothering him slowly with a pillow (as I am sure he does the same) but at the end of the day, I love him more than he will ever comprehend. He makes me laugh, refuses to let me stay angry, and never lets a conversation end without saying I love you.




I love my adorably, obnoxious, loving, energetic, smart, sensitive, crazy child. He can make me cry one minute and laugh the next. God gave me such a precious gift. It is a challenging one at times but I cherish it very much.

I love my family. I have such wonderfully Godly rolemodels as parents. I hope to be half as great a parent as they have been to me. My sister is my best friend.....not in a conventional way though. She doesn't know all my secrets, she isn't my first call, but I love her more than anything. I prayed her into this world and am SO thankful to have her.


I love my Church. We have so many exciting things going on right now at West Ellisville Baptist Church. I have met so many people who have molded me into who I am today and help carry me from day to day there.

I love my job! I am so blesssed to have found this job because rarely do openings become available there. I work with girls that I consider the best of friends which makes working there so much more enjoyable. I love that God is allowed in our work place and we have prayer at every event.

I love my cell phone. Yes I am the girl who cant live without her phone. Games, Apps, Facebook, Internet....LOVE IT!!!



If you can't tell from my blog already , I love.....let me rephrase.... am ADDICTED to Pinterest! I have found my crafty side. Most of my attempts are complete FAILS but I do manage to NAIL a few....


I love Diet Coke. Darn you Aspartame...... I have got to give this love up soon. I know how awful it is for you but it is literally like liquid crack!


I love the beach. I find myself drifting off daily into daydreams of sand, waves and sunshine. I hope to take a vacation very soon..... somewhere like this would be nice ;)


I am such a TV junkie. Colby monopolizes the TV in the evening so it works out perfectly for me to sneak to my room and watch a few shows of my own. I love Glee, New Girl, Pretty Little Liars, Greys Anatomy, The Big Bang Theory, How I met your mother, Project Runway, Whitney, Raising Hope, and True Blood. I told ya I liked TV.....


Bazinga....

I love my new daily devotional book. If you have been looking for a good one I highly recommend it! It is Jesus Calling by Sarah Young.


I love music. There are a constant flow of song lyrics running though my head. Sometimes I will answer people with a song lyric. I am the girl who sings to loudly in the car to Adele that I am sure the cars next to me can hear. I love all kinds of music. My favorite 80s band is Roxette. Colby loves music too. He alerted everyone in Walmart this morning that he had the moves like Jagar....


I love to be tan. Everyone knows that tan fat is much more appealing than white fat....

I love to buy a new purse.... suddenly makes you feel good!

I love a good Mani/Pedi/Massage. I do not get to indulge in such very often but when I do I thouroughly enjoy it.


I love my mommas cooking! My one regret in life is that I didn't spend more time with her in the kitchen growing up. Now I subject my husband to repeated hamburger helper and spagetti! My mother is such an inspiration to me. I see more of myself in her everyday.


I love being married to a cop! It provides this extra sense of security for some reason or another. I feel like I am going to bed with Chuck Norris or something....


I love my fantastic friends. They are stretched everywhere from Texas, to Memphis to Biloxi to Washington and we may not talk everyday but each friend I have makes up a little of who I am. Most of my best friends are still right here at home for which I am thankful. They each mean so much to me and I love them dearly.



So there is a taste of things I love! I also love blogging eventhough I do not get to do it as often as I would like. I hope you have a great month and a fabulous Valentines Day. Take a moment to think about the things you love and show a little extra love to the ones you love the most.
