It's amazing how much things change in a few days, weeks, and months.  Blink and you'll miss it!  I'm a heavy Pinterest user lately, so I feel like I'm full of cliche inspirational quotes inserted into everyday conversation.  Let's hope it's not that bad.

Elephants on the interstate?!

Life is FULL of little surprises, you just have to be open to them...and some you have to work for a little bit.  Either way, life is good.  :)

Enjoy your weekend!

Day 897

I paid some guy big money to poke and prod my gums with needles today.  At least he used cherry numbing gel and wore clean gloves.

Day 841

Go. Go. GO!  <---That's my week, ladies and gentlemen ... and I kinda love it.  Beats being cold, wearing 10 layers, and having dreary, dark skies! :)

Day 836

I still have a stupid grin on my face.  I told you last night was a good night. :) 

If an EPIC PHOTO ever existed, I believe the one above would qualify.  If you were there, you know the story and how unexpected this lick was.  Aweeeesome. :) 

Day 815

Rehearsal + rehearsal dinner tonight!  Last chance beach and pool day!

Day 807

Having plans every-single-night this week is catching up with me.  Looking forward to VACAAAATION!  Woo hoooo!

Day 795

I think we could all use a little old school music today.  Enjoy!

...okay, and two new ones, too.  I couldn't resist!

Day 794

It's FRIIIIIIIDAY!  WAHOO!

Ingrid wants to sing a song to you:

Day 730

Dave, Stephanie, and I are participating in an April Photo a Day challenge.  So check their blogs throughout the month to see how they interpret the challenge!

1) your reflection

In honor of today's photos-I-randomly-take-of-myself challenge, I'll share a few others from my Mac Photo Booth archives for your amusement.

Day 720

Wowza, I had a good, but tough, workout tonight.  I'm mentally awake, but physically drained.  It's a weird feeling for me (this whole working out thing), but I'm really starting to like it.  Since it's on a schedule, it's really easy for me to plan ahead and make sure I can get myself there.  Cheers to better health!

...for your waaaaiiiiiine.

Day 653

Cold winter nights are best spent in the company of warm friends. :)

Day 645

Bowling with friends is way fun, even if you have to wait an hour and you end up losing to your guy (and subsequently have to make him dinner). :)

Day 619

I went shopping with 3 little girls under the age of 10 today.  We (in addition to my mom and Ginger) went to the mall, Christmas Tree Store, and Garden Ridge.  There are funny photos, and oh yes, we giggled. :)

Day 577

I love Halloween parties, especially when they're hosted by Joey & Stephanie.  We had SO much fun last night!  I'm totally pooped (still) and it's 4:00 in the afternoon.  (I couldn't really sleep this morning so I just got up.)  Hoping tomorrow (my first day at my new job) and this whole week go really well! :)

Day 567

Once you start talking to God, being thankful and gracious, and giving Him even some of your worries/concerns, He starts working on them.  I had a really bad day yesterday, and prayed for awhile last night.  True to form, God had someone from AAA call me about the job to get me out of bed.  Today is going to be a better day because I'm changing my mindset.  I'm going to make it a better day.  Attitude adjustment FTW!

Hope you're all staying warm out there on this cold day!

Day 505

Oh man, I had an unexpectedly awesome night last night.  :D
Currently, I can smell the super tasty Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Pie that literally just came out of the oven.  YUM!
Heading over to Brook's tonight for girls' night, even though there will be boys present.  I'm not sure how that logic works out. ;)
Going to the fair tomorrow, and you betcha I'll be purchasing some deep fried cookie dough!

Have a great weekend, friends!

Day 497

Today, I woke up with a bit of weight off of my shoulders.  That pushed me to have a productive morning, and hope to continue that into this afternoon.  Feeling hopeful, but not naive.  Prayers are definitely in order on the productivity to do list for today.

Hope you're having a great day!

Day 477

Of course we chose one of the hottest days of the year to parade around Broad Ripple!  It was time for Cierra's bachelorette party tonight, so it was all worth it!  We had a good time at dinner and then bar hopped the rest of the night.  Some guy named Joe (and his fellas) met up with us at The Red Room, so that was a fun end to the evening. :)
