I love when family just randomly drops in!!! It is so refreshing to see family, It rejuvinates me and helps me move forward with a smile on my face!

Kid: "my name is Leeland Jr., I'm named after my grandpa."
Me: what's your grandpa's name?
Kid: "Leeland Grandpa."
I love kids
Today I:
got to give candy to cute trick or treaters at work
-talked and laughed with my bestest twin sister
-admired my mom for her strength as I talked and listened and talked with her
-spent lunch with my sweet husband who loves me so much he studied stats with me so I would pass my test
-met some really neat people who make me smile
-racked my brain for answers as I took my stats test
-prayed for my aunt who is in ICU
-admired my sister-in-law Alyssa, who enjoys the simple things in life and makes every day count
-ran three miles and sweat real hard
-maybe argued with my new coworker and then reminded myself i'm grateful to have a coworker to argue with
-indulged in one of my favorite comfort foods: mac n cheese
-wore my favorite shoes: red converse
-learned about gambling: is it compulsive, or is it an addiction?
-found myself staring at my husband thinking "how on earth did I get such an incredible man?"
-Laughed till my stomach hurt about my other coworkers children, they are to die for.
-Think about how much I love fall: pumpkins, red, orange, brown, smells, leaves, crisp air
-mumble under my breath about the bitter cold, and then realized it was a great excuse for some hot chocolate
-got some mixed reactions on my newly dyed dark brown hair, an old guy said I looked sexy... made me wish I was blond
I love my life!

This is my twin sister. She is also my best friend, my guardian angel, my cheerleader, my hero, my example, my confidante, the person that makes me laugh with my gut till I wet my pants, or holds me and rocks me in her arms when i'm sad, she's the person who is stronger than she knows, more beautiful than she realizes, and the sweetest most sincere person I have ever met. It was her birthday yesterday...She is 20, which means that she's not in her teens anymore, she feels old, but she keeps me so young. We share such special memories (the good and the bad) and she is the basically one of the few people in my life who "gets me." She knows just what to say at just the right time. She is the person that when you call to ask about how she's doin, she turns it around and wants to know how i'm doin before she talks about herself. She's the person who gives up her shoes to make someone else's walk back to campus more comfortable (true story), she's the one you can trust to keep a secret when you want it kept. She's my better half!
Happiest Birthday Ky!
I Shluv you!
As for this car, I cried and cried when we sold my it! I loved that car, it was so good to me. I'm so blessed to have parents that gave me such a cute reliable car that got me everywhere, it's been with me on so many new adventures...it was a part of me! Luckily, it is going to a very cute owner who already loves it as much as I do and really needed it! And I even get to see it every now and again. I already miss that beloved car!
