Summer :)

Life is good

Do you ever think about your life and what led you to where you are?

or maybe how different you are from the person you were a year ago?

what about your life plans? and how drastically those may have changed?

Yeah me too. 

...I just like this song. It feels like summer.

Good Bye Bruce

In loving memory of our fish. Bruce Sabastian Cunningham Perry Moffat

Adopted: May 7th 2011

Died: May 16th 2011

We will never forget the times we had together Bruce.  You stuck it out and stayed strong through the good and the bad never once abandoning us in a time of need.  We love you and wanted you to have nothing but the best. You never once took for granted the things that we gave you, the car, the shrubbery, the classy black rocks, and last but not least the lucky rock so strategically placed in your 1.5 gallon fish bowl.  We will go on with our lives because YOU have inspired us to be better. RIP

• Bruces' death is not an indicator of our future parenting skills
• murder is suspected (Mandan always spoke of his dislike towards Bruce)
• His funeral took place May 16th 2011 10:50 PM Ashley Park Apts

Alone

Here I am sticking it to the man.

This morning I realized I had a choice to make.

A critical choice.  one that could make or break me.

So I sat on my bed scribbling out my thoughts organizing my mind and I decided.

ABOUT ME:  I have a weakness,  When I was younger I used to HATE being alone.  If I got in the shower and everyone was gone when I got out I would have a panic attack.  It didn't really matter who I was with I just wanted to be around someone else.  As I have gotten older I have grown to appreciate the time I have alone and I even need it sometimes BUT to this day. people give me energy.  The more people the more energy.  I hate to admit it.  But I rely probably a little bit to much on social interaction.

So as I considered that I will be spending quite a bit of time alone this summer I realized I could choose to be bummed out about it.

OR

get super excited about the fact that I have this time to work on myself as a person! AND I have a lot of responsibility and things to take care of and I focus much much better when I do not have distractions.

So this is me appreciating how dang lucky I am once again.  God seriously takes care of me he is such a genius.

Stick it to the man (aka Lucifer)

Building trust with my MAN

Today was the day that Chase and I decided to purchase a baby fish.  His name was going to be Sebastion Bruce Cunningham Perry Moffat.


After my attempt at making pancakes for dinner... we decided to go claim our new friend.


BUT FIRST. I decided to blindfold Mr. Chase Moffat. 

  

So like a fool Chase let me guide him around Wal Mart with a blind fold. 

Yes, people stared

Yes, I left him alone for a little bit 

(under Mike Moffats instruction, I stood four feet away and almost cried from laughing)

I am a bully

Even after I left him alone he didn't take off his blind fold what a gent.

Yes, This boy is my all time favorite.

p.s. this Wal Mart does not sell fishies...

Chase...Dickson Tennessee

GRACELAND!

Kansas

Kansas?

I took all of these pictures (Chase was worried about people thinking he did), because I am creepy. 

AND because Chase let me be in charge of the camera

Think what you want

These pictures are NOT in order

Road tripping was LEGIT I strongly recommend it

I got in the car and drove into summer

HOLY COW

So basically at this very moment I am in Dickson Tennessee.  Where is Dickson TN you might ask... (story time)

Yesterday was one of the best days of my life. And trust me I have been DYING to blog about it but first let me explain why I am in Dickson.

last night our goal was to go about half hour East of Nashville and stop for the night.  About half hour WEST of Nashville 150 ft away from exit 172 South Dickson the front right tire of Chases two wheel drive 2006 silver Honda Civic blew.

 why so specific?

My Mom got road side assistance for our cell phones.  After CLEARLY explaining what you might think simple information for 45 minutes to Joseph (who was very nice) the road side assistance coordinator we got someone to come change our spare
-but that is a story by itself

This is Chase...

Its hard to see BUT

Yes, this man is wearing booty shorts 

OH and he has a flannel shirt on

...and he also had a nice mullet

Side note: Last night I heard loud sirens warning me of a tornado...
First thought upon waking up: YES! I lived.


So here I am SO excited to tell you about my travels across the USA. but it has to wait.  It is time to hit the road again.

So Hello. I love you. even in Tennessee.

P.S YESTERDAY MY AMAZING MAN TOOK ME TO GRACELAND!
Don't worry I used Chases whole camera battery taking pictures.
