I missed last weeks Sunday Citar, I think it had to do with all the craziness of that day, so here I am with my Sunday Citar. Ready to go...
"The serenity of mind, gentleness, silence, self-restraint, and the purity of mind are called the austerity of thought." -Bhagavad Gita
Looking at this picture I think of serenity, and peace. I came accross this quote and thought it was the best. :) Head over to Fresh Mommy and add your own quote. :)
You know you want to spice it up! Head over to iHeartFaces they have a great giveaway going on. You need to go there NOW and check it out. Or you can head over to pepper and see her awesome straps. :) If you click the logo above it will take you right there. My fingers are crossed for this one!
I made it to Day 20, now lets see if I can make it to 30. Maybe... :p At school (work) we have been playing kickball all week long. And my legs are feeling it, I need stretch them out, so its good we do stretching before we play. I guess I'll need to do more. :)
As you can see we have loads of fun! All the kids are learning the game really well, it's awesome. I'm so proud of all the kids, they are doing really well at having a good attitude, and encouraging each other while they play. Because you know how kids can be when they are playing games, sometimes they are not so happy when they get out, or if something goes wrong. Not these kids, they leave the game laughing and so glad they played. Next week we'll do football, we'll see how that turns out. :)
Another walk happened today, but I didn't take my camera with me on this one, because Jeremy didn't want this one to take as long as yesterdays :p. So I thought I would share some more photos of yesterdays walk.
I'm an expert at cart wheels.
Jeremy's friend Jon lives down a few complexes so he decided it would be fun to throw pebbles at his window. He eventually made it down.
Here is another pretty flower, it's bootiful. (Yes, I spelled that wrong on purpose.) To conclude this post I get to have tomorrow off. And I'm really grateful to have it. :)
Okay, I don't I'm going to be able to finish 30 days of Spring. I believe Summer starts on June 21, so I guess we'll see, but I don't think so. ;) But, I'll do it anyway. Some of you may know that I LOVE desserts, and this chocolate mouse with whip cream was delicious. It's from BD'S Mongolian BBQ. If you have one near you and haven't had this dessert yet, oh my... you need to. I'm getting all excited just talking about it. :) It was so good I just dug right in, I got a bit on my nose... ;p
Along with desserts I have been enjoying walks with my husband of course. And today we went out for a great walk. Here are some pictures from that time.
*if you click it you can see it bigger. :)
My favorite one out of these three is the biggest one, I like the facial expression in it :) Jeremy took these, didn't he do a fantastic job? I thought so too.
Pretty flower huh? Our walk was definitely satisfying... I already know we'll do it more. :) *side note* While posting this I was listening to Miley Cyrus Break out...

Sunday Citar, get involved! Go to Fresh Mommy blog and play along. It's loads of fun, especially to read what other quotes were posted :) We'll see ya next week!
So Briony found this interesting new toy... and after seeing on her blog what you could do with it I had to get involved. This is what I came up with...
At Polyvore you can create your own. It's pretty fun, and takes time. I think I'm with Briony on this one... this might become a regular thing. :) Thanks Briony for sharing.
Okay, so it took longer than I had said but work has been a little crazy :) But a good crazy. We're getting ready for the summer program and school aged kids to join us. :) But here are the pictures from our nephew, Jon's, graduation on Sunday. Oh, and my cute little blue dress, :p
There was a balcony and I thought it would be an interesting shot if I was at the top and Jon was down below looking up. So here is how it turned out. :)
This shot has a funny story to go with it. First, I turned around and saw Jeremy wearing this graduation hat. So I took a shot of it, and he made me laugh because of his facial expressions. After we discovered that Kristen, Jon's mom, had his graduation hat in her hands, we realized Jeremy was holding someone elses hat. We had no idea who's it was, so he just grabbed a hat that was laying on the counter. Some person out there is with out their graduation hat. Well, they may have it now, we gave it to a staff member. I hope they got it.
I guess he's excited about "graduating" :) Sorry it took so long for me to post these. Catch ya'll on the flip side. (What does that mean? I don't know)

Hey all, I did a tutorial on my photo blog. Alice, a fellow blogger/photographer asked me how I made eyes pop in a picture. Well, I then decided to do a tutorial for Alice, and any others who would like the info. Head on over and check it out. :) just click HERE I'll have Graduation pictures posted later today or tomorrow. Have a stupendous Monday.
Today after church Jeremy took me to the mall to find a cute summer dress. And i found this! We found it at Aeropostale and I liked it a lot. It's may not look like it but it is longer than it looks. I'm so excited to wear it tonight to Jon (our nephew's) graduation. It was so sweet of him to invite us. I'll be taking pictures tonight, so I'll be sure to share those later. Well, I must go finish a few things before I need to get ready!

I really liked this quote because I am a teacher! :) Also, I'd like to give a big thanks to Tabitha from Fresh Mommy for this picture and also for doing Sunday Citars. You rock! Now it's your turn, join on in. Head over to Fresh Mommy and play along. Lets see what ya got!
*Thanks Tab for sending those pictures over. :)I had a type A, it tasted like juice. :) They did such a great job with decorating Woah whats that on the glass? Yummy! (it was really juice) This one of me is kind of dark but it was dark in the house Look how surprised I was.:)
Although it was last weekend, I'm just now getting to tell the story of my awesome gifts that my wonderful husband put together. Friday, May 29th was our actual anniversary date, and when we got home from work he had something special for me. While I was freshening up for our dinner he was getting it all ready. When I came out he sat me on the couch and pushed play on the remote. At first I didn't know what was going to happen, then he started singing. I started getting teary eyed right away. I added the video below to share the awesomeness that is my husband.
Didn't he do a good job? I cried throughout the whole thing. I have been waiting SO long for him to sing to me, and finally he did. But he made it 100 times better by writing the song and making a music video. I was extremely surprised. :O I dried up my tears, fixed my make up (Again) and we headed out for dinner.
The next day I thought was going to be our lazy day. I woke up and made chocolate chip pancakes and bacon for Jeremy. We went out to a movie with Tab, Chris, Aliyah, our friends Gerri, Devon, and their son Noah. Aliyah invited us to go, and we wanted to see the movie anyway. So we met up with them early afternoon and it was such a cute movie. Any adult or child could enjoy this movie, seriously. After the movie Jeremy and I went home and relaxed. I ended up taking a very small nap, and Jeremy woke me up to go with him to pick up our dinner he had ordered for us the day before. While we were out doing that, Tab, Chris, Briony, and Britt were all sneaking in the apartment to decorate it for a Twilight party. Because Jeremy got me something else, a Twilight bonus pack thing. :) It included the DVD (Blu-Ray), The sound track, some pictures from the movie, a bracelet, watch, and book mark. It was awesome. I was so amazed with everything they did. We watched the Twilight movie while we ate our Fenton House, and then we played a Twilight board game. But that wasn't as fun as watching the movie. I don't have any pictures to share because I was so stunned and amazed and enjoying myself that I didn't even think about pulling my camera out. I'll have to grab some from Tab and Briony who snagged a few photos before we got there. It was truly and awesome and memorable 1st anniversary. Thanks Jeremy! I love you!
