I guess you can tell that it has been awhile since I have gotten to my blog. Life has been great yet very very busy! Richie has been recently contacted by the guradian-ad-litem on the case dealing with his son and we should have the final court date soon. Today is the last official ball day ending with the National Champs tonight at the VA fields in Jackson. I have recently started back at UMC ER and I LOVE it!!! I missed feeling like a "real" nurse for so long and my husband is very happy that I am back to "my old self" again. I have also made a wonderful and dear friend Katie Spell!! I am working nights now and to be honest I really enjoy it. I love the docs and the shift that I am on. They have really made me feel very welcome, wanted, and needed there. I am going to start studying to take the CEN soon. Hope it doesn't take me so long to get back to my blog but who knows...it's proven to be a good thing!!!

Got there just in time to see Diamond Rio, they are awesome!!! We also got to see a pretty good fireworks show. Hope everyone has a Happy, Happy Fourth of July!!!!
Fireworks!

Today was a hot one at my house. I cleaned a bit and then watched much tv. I also got six big tomatoes off my tomato plants. They have been growing like weeds, I can't keep up with them so I have been giving a good bit to my neighbor Wes. While picking my tomatoes I came across a little tree frog that was precious. Here he is...

Everyone except me and Aunt Penny. Someone had to take the pictures!!



POKER TIME!!!


Richie made these shirts for us the morning of the reunion in about 5 minutes. Good job Love!!!

NO one said that since we won that they were going to throw ice on us! Sore losers!! Hey, at least it felt good!

So, as you can see We WON the Washer Tournament!!!! Yay! We hold the Miller Cup Trophy at our house until next year!







Washer Tournament time!


PawPaw Richard and all of his children!




Just to clarify, the "hot" tub was set on cool and was actually alot colder than the pool! But we weren't telling everyone that! :)




We had to take a dip. It was sooo hot!!!! Richie is sooo WHITE!!!



After the women got back from getting manicures and pedicures, we went and set by the pool. Right next to Aunt Pam and I were these two lizards. One larger one that was chasing a smaller one. Well, if you look at the picture you can tell why. I had no idea that they "did it" like this but it was quite entertaining. They satyed like this for over an hour. Poor little lizard!!!

This weekend is the Miller family reunion and I am pumped. I have always loved family gatherings I guess because I really haven't had many. This is Richie's side of the family but they are like my own now so I feel very comfortable. We are going to have some good ole' southern fun. Lots of swimming, grilling, and washer throwing. The guys always go play golf then visit with the family but we are changing it up some this year. The ladies are going for manicures and pedicures at the mall in McComb, they are opening early for all of us. So the women now have a "thing" to do other than keep the children or just cook. Also, I am making my famous banana pudding. I hope everyone will like it! The most exciting thing about this weekend is that Richie and I get to spend time with his dad and step mom! Maybe Monday I can post some pics of the weekend for everyone to see.

You see I really would like some flowers from my sweet and thoughtful husband but if history repeats itself then I will just have to be happy with this beautiful picture of a Calla Lily.

HURRY UP FLORIDA STATE FOOTBALL!!!

Oh what a weekend! We went to Mansfield, TX to play in a softball tournament which our team won 3rd place in D Class. Good job guys! It was the nicest place we have ever played and the guys loved the fields. It was a hot one though....heat index was 104 degrees. Can't wait until we get to go again next year maybe we can stay a bit longer than this time.

Good morning mates. It's a beautiful Friday and we are stuck at the office...blahhh. We have a good weekend planned. Richie is playing ball in Petal Saturday and then Sunday is rest day, maybe we will go to church. Yesterday evening we went for BP at the job corp in crystal springs with Dave and his son Dylan. Well, you see I tried to catch some of Richie's balls that he hit and I got one grounder to the right ankle and when he threw one for me to catch, it hit me in the forehead. I am so clumsy. Not too sure that the softball idea is a good thing for me. So today I am hobbling around but I will make it. Hope everyone has a blessed day!!!!

Well it has been over a month that I have posted anything so I figure it's time. I have been having a lack of the womanly issue for the last three months. My doctor wanted to give my body a rest for a few months so we decided to stop all hormones and fertility meds. So today I woke up and surprise, surprise..... I am having a period without any drugs!! Yay!!! I could tell something was different for the last week or so and continued to tell Lisa that I wasn't sure what it was but i knew something wasn't right. I haven't had a hot flash in over a month! So when I got home yesterday I took a pregnancy test because we are going out this weekend and I didn't want to be drinking and pregnant consciously. Well I guess I am done until there is more news to tell you guys about! Pray for us!!!

So it's Monday once again. I am working today and I am actually really tired. I had a long weekend and it surely didn't last long enough. My husband played softball this weekend in Petal at a C class tournament and came in fourth...not bad for a D class team. However we didn't get home til 2:00am. The weather was nice for most of the day but by 8:00pm it was chilly then got plum cold. I enjoyed spending time with my friends. Today's work day has went by fairly fast and I can't wait to get home, see my love for a bit and then go to sleep. Hopefully the rest of the week will go by just as fast!

So those close to me know that I had to get Layla my chihuahua fixed Friday because she was "in season." So I dropped her off at the vet's office that morning and Richie picked her up that afternoon. I got a good report from the vet but they said she had looked like she was in pain all day long so they gave her some pain meds. When we got home I cooked her some scrambled eggs and boiled some rice in chicken broth and cut up a half of a biscuit. She ate two bites and vomited everywhere. That's when I began to cry. My poor little baby just sat there helpless and appeared drugged. So last night before we went to bed we decided to try a little bit of ice cream (her favorite) and she kept it down. We put her in the bed between us and this morning when we woke at 7:15 I got up and fixed her some french toast for breakfast. She tolerated that well and now is trying to play a little. Her incision looks great, it's just a little bigger than I expected. For dinner she had more rice cooked in chicken broth and some cold milk. She loved it and is now laying on the couch next to her pops. She is doing so much better. We are having our friends Susan and Dave over tonight for poker and my neighbor Wes is here playing PlayStation with my hubby. We are just some big kids!!!

January 11, 2009

What a weekend!! We picked up my 8year old niece and her two brothers, Payton (6) and Cade (3) Friday evening. They are amazing kids. We had pizza for dinner and my mom and little sister Emily and her 6 month old baby, Ayden, came that evening to visit. We had a house full! We watched a movie that had a few "bad" words in it and the kids just about had a fit. Next time we will have to get a movie more suitable for little children. So we took the kids home Saturday afternoon around four and I was beat!!! I slept better last night than ever in 26 years! So today is Sunday and we are going to lounge I may even exercise a little later but not going to guarantee it. Hope the day goes by slow. We are going to have a busy Monday at work and I am in no rush to get to it!!!

January 6, 2009

So it has been a really busy holiday season I tell you. I am so glad things are going back to normal!! Richie and I are ovulating as of yesterday and are so very excited. I am so blessed to have a partner like him who is just as "into it" as I am. What a wonderful feeling it is!!!
