My Love/Hate Relationship With....

Today, I have a HUGE love/hate relationship with the internet.

It is awesome to be able to communicate with friends and family and also gives the privilege to make new friends! I prefer shopping on the internet also. I don't like to always have the same shirt or dress that everyone else has! It's easier to find different things on the internet. Besides, the mall in my town is a joke. I mainly go there to go to Dillard's. Sometimes I go to JcPenny's and the kids stores. For a real shopping trip, we head to New Orleans, not that I'm complaining. :) 

Currently, my power cord for my computer is holding on for dear life. Someone *cough Elliot cough* got hungry and bit really close to the part that plugs into the computer. No bueno. My dad wrapped it up with electrical tape and we are hoping for the best. haha A new power cord costs around $80. I of course have 567,876,098,987 that I would rather spend that money on. 

Of course since I'm an/a awesome horrible blogger, I have no pictures for this post. Awesome right? 

 

Lets Close Our Eyes

Lets close our eyes and go back to Monday, since that's when I planned to have this post up.

Moving on.

This past weekend was so much fun! My weekends usually aren't too busy with things to do so it was a nice 

change.

Saturday was my awesome friend Chelsey's baby shower! Chelsey is going to be the first person in our group of friends to have a baby and the excitement is killing us all! Not to mention, this baby girl will be the first grand-baby on her and her husbands side! She will be so spoiled and loved! I am so excited to meet her! Her name will be Savannah Colleen. I am in love with her name, but already have her nickname picked out, which will be Vannie. I love feeling her move around in Chelsey's belly, but I am so ready and excited for her to come out!! The shower was gorgeous. It was at Chris and Chelsey's home. Smart idea on their part. Their home was filled with yummy food, sweet decor and very excited guests! I, of course, have no pictures from the shower. 

Sunday, Josh and I went to the zoo!! I hadn't been in a few years and I had been nagging sweetly pushing Joshua to bring me. He hadn't been since he was in junior high! We saw lots of cool animals, Josh questioned my real age and the weather was very nice. Here are some pictures!

Audubon Zoo (New Orleans, LA)

 I love the flamingos!

 Real cotton candy!

Us. :-)

A couple of funny things happened at the zoo too.

Two duck/goose kind of things were eating a snack out of a metal baking pan and a rat tried to sneak a bite. One of the duck/goose things attacked that rat! It just bit the rat and that rat ran off so fast! The duck/goose that got the rat proceeded to open it's wings and make a ton of noise to let everyone know that he saved the snack! Haha

We saw the gorilla later. When we got there he was in the back of his enclosure leaning on a big rock. He then walked a little toward us and started picking grass to eat. He then ran as if he was going to jump over the fence!! Everyone moved back, because we were sure that we would be the next group on tv for a "When Zoo Animals Attack" sort of show. haha He stopped running when he got to the end of the grassy area then looked around at us. Joshua and I think he was playing around and trying to scare everyone for his own enjoyment. Ha! 

I hope you all had a great weekend!

Now open your eyes, because it's really Wednesday! 

Flow

Hey y'all! What has everyone been up to? 

I went to my first Body Flow class on Tuesday and it was awesome! Body Flow is a mix of yoga, pilates and tai chi. I loved it, however, I had no balance on Tuesday, which is highly needed. I was in dancing for 14 years so I have balance, it's just lost. I'll have to find that soon.

I have been feeling so much happier since I've been working out. Summer is around the corner and I want to have a healthier body by then. I have been on Pinterest for some "pinsperation". haha

Here are a couple of my favorites:

2 Years Old

Today, my man and I turn 2 years old. I guess that's a weird way of saying it's our 2 year anniversary, but I'm a rebel. Haha So I guess for today, I'll show some pictures of us.

#1 Our first date and first picture.

#2 Being silly in New Orleans. It was HOT! Please excuse my red face.

#3 Us at a music festival. Also what I look like with straight hair, obviously. 

Weekend Happenings and Body Pump

The real reason we should be happy it's Tuesday is because we are getting closer to Friday. :)

So, this past weekend was pretty fun!

Friday night,  Joshua, his friend Kent and I went to La Casa for dinner and much needed drinks. Joshua and I don't really care for La Casa, but Kent won the Paper, Rock, Scissor game so he got to pick. Being a vegetarian is very hard at La Casa. I pretty much had to customize my order and it was edible, but not close to El Paso, our favorite mexican restaurant. Of course, I have no pictures. 

After dinner we went bowling with Kent and another couple. That was fun, but not something I should do after a margarita. I needed those gutter guards.....badly. It was still lots of fun. Again, no pictures.

Sunday, Joshua and I went to lunch at Samuri, where I got my favorite roll. I get the tuna roll without the tuna. It comes with avocado, asparagus, carrots, and cucumber inside and a piece of fried tofu on top. I also ordered edemame. YUM! We then went to check out Renessiance, a fitness club that a few of his friends go to. I was also interested in joining because they offer classes and Joshua looks so cute when we works out. Both very good reasons to join. 

I went to my first Body Pump class at 4:55 AM Monday morning. I really must have lost my marbles for wanting to go to a class that early, but getting up wasen't bad. There were about 12 of us in the class. I was the youngest. The other students ranged from 30-60 years old.

Y'all, the 60 year old women were helping ME out! I felt a little embarrassed, but got over it. My face looked sun burnt because it was so red. My body is not happy about taking that class! Sore is not even the word! Still, I do like the class and it works EVERY part of your body. I am definitely going again.
