Wordful Wednesday

It's Wednesday and you know what that means.....Wordful Wednesday! Head over to Seven Clown Circus to play along.

This picture was taken last year on Easter. I love Easter! I love the spring time weather and I love everything that Easter represents. I thought I would list my favorite things about Easter.

1. Easter Service: I love going to church on Easter. I love it almost as much as Christmas Eve service. I love worshiping our savior Jesus Christ and thanking him for dying on the cross for my sins. I also love the music during worship. The whole experience is just awesome.

2. Family: Every year my family gets together after church for Easter lunch. My entire family attends the same church and we usually always eat as a family after church but it is extra special on Easter. Dustin and I recently started attending a younger church and we love it very much and I am excited to attend their Easter service this year. My mom cooks a big lunch and everyone comes over to eat. I love it!

3. Easter Baskets: I love Easter baskets. They are so fun! To this day, my mom still puts together an Easter basket for my sister and I. They are usually filed with candy and a small gift such as cute socks or a shirt. This year my mom got me a pair of shorts from Old Navy. I used to put together an Easter basket for Dustin when were dating. I can't wait to have children so I can make their Easter baskets every year.

4. Easter Candy: I know that it is the same old candy that you can buy year round except everything is in bright spring colors and egg shaped! I love it! I have been buying a lot of Easter candy lately and I need to stop! My figure does not appreciate it!

5. Easter Egg Hunts: I have not hunted Easter eggs in years but it was my favorite childhood memory of Easter. My dad, my uncle and my grandpa would the hide eggs all over the yard and then my sister and I would go looking. There were always 2 eggs that were filled with money, one for me and one for my sister. Sadly, we don't have any little kids on my side of the family so we haven't done an egg hunt in a long time.

What is your favorite part of Easter and do you have special plans?

Tuesday's Lame Post

This is going to be a lame post. Nothing has been going on in the Wynn household so there isn't much to blog about. I am excited about Easter. I am going to do an Easter post tomorrow for Wordful Wednesday. I love Easter!

I finally finished Good In Bed by Jennifer Weiner. It was hard for me to get into the book at first but once I got about halfway through the book I couldn't put it down. I was so excited to start reading Chasing Harry Winston by Lauren Weisberger but instead I am going to read the sequel to Good In Bed. It is called Certain Girls and it comes out in paper back today. I am nerd and pre-ordered a copy and am having it shipped to me. Lame I know. What can I say, I love to read.

On a completely different note, did anyone watch the Academy of Country Music Awards? I love country music and I have watched the ACM awards since I was a little girl. I was so glad that Carrie Underwood won Entertainer of the Year. Did any of you see her dress that she wore during her performance? Wow! I have never seen a dress that big.

Told you it was big.

I am going to admit that I watched The Hills last night. I have watched this show from the beginning and since it is the final season I figured I might as well watch. Is anybody else out there willing to admit they are a Hills fan?

I just can't get over Heidi and Spencer. Yuck! I can't stand Spencer. He is such a jerk. My husband is going to kill me for telling all of you that he watched it with me last night. That's right, he watched an entire hour of The Hills! Not by choice of course, but he did admit he enjoyed watching the show because he got a kick out of making fun of everyone on the show. He just can't get over the fact that some one would want to make a show about these people's lives and that people actually watch it.

I told you this post was going to be lame. Have a good Tuesday everyone! I love Tuesdays because Biggest Loser, American Idol, Law & Order SVU and 90210 come on! I have a busy TV night ahead of me!

Sunday Shopping

Today Dustin and I went to Canton with my parents. You can go here to find out more about Canton. I am exhausted. It was cold and very windy today. Because I had not been to Canton in years, I did not realize how big it had gotten. It took us almost 30 minutes to walk back to our car when we were ready to leave. My feet hurt!

There was an unbelievable amount of stuff there. I was so overwhelmed. I wished I had a money tree today because there was lots of cute stuff. I could have bought everything I put my hands on but I don't have a money tree. I did find a few things that I had to have.

I made this to go on the corner ledge of my bathtub but it doesn't fit. I will have to find another place for it.

I got these cute fireman ornaments for our Christmas tree. My Christmas tree is done in all fireman ornaments and they are hard to find. These were the only 2 I found so I snatched them up.

I bought this turquoise necklace. I am already trying to think of an outfit to wear to work tomorrow that this will go with. Ha!

I got this cute collar for Miss Maribel. So cute!

We also got some mix to make ranch dip and chili along with some pecan pie muffins. Yum! I think I already mentioned that I am tired. I am also starving. I think the long walk back to the car made me hungry. I am going to go beg my husband to feed me now!

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend! Too bad it is almost over with.

Just down right Hilarious!

A blog I follow called McMommy Chronicles is hosting POW....Post of the Week. You use Mr. Linky and upload your favorite post of the week. I have been reading a few of the posts people have linked and I came across this blog.

This is the funniest thing I think I have ever read. The blog is called Playpen and Matt who is a father to a little girl with one on the way has written the most hilarious post ever! Here is a quote from his post....

" You can prepare yourself all you want for the trials and tribulations of parenting but I can tell you this. No one. ever. Can prepare you for the taste of poo."

Now go read his blog and if you don't laugh you are not human. Oh, how I can't wait to be a parent! Ha!

TGIF!

Thank goodness it is Friday! This week actually flew by for me. I am so ready for this weekend! I actually get to have a relaxing weekend. The last 4 weekends have been crazy busy for me!

Did anyone watch the series finale of ER? I did and I was a little disappointed. I hated the ending and there was no sign of George Clooney. I kind of wished they had focused more on the old characters rather than the newer characters. I was glad I watched it and it was kind of sad because it was such a great show.

Tonight I don't have any plans and that is a great thing. Dustin is going to the Ranger game with Clark (hopefully our future brother-in-law) and I plan to curl up and watch Marley & Me. Dustin is on shift tomorrow and I don't have any plans! Greatness!!

Sunday Dustin and I are going to Canton Trade Days in Canton, TX with my parents. If you live in Texas I am sure you have heard of Canton. They call it a huge flea market that takes place on the first weekend of every month. I wouldn't call it a flea market because flea market to me means junk and the stuff at Canton is far from junk. They sell everything from jewelry, clothing, home decor, furniture, baby accessories, etc. Vendors come from all over the place to sell their stuff. I haven't been in years and I am so excited. I can't believe I got Dustin to agree to go with me.

Sunday is also my parent's 29th Wedding Anniversary! Happy anniversary Mom & Dad! I love you both very much!

Happy Friday! Does anyone have exciting plans for the weekend?

End of an Era

Is anyone going to watch the series finale of ER tonight? I will admit that I have not watched the show the past 5 or 6 seasons. I can't believe it has been on for 15 years! That is a long time for TV. I was only 10 at the time the show first premiered but when I got old enough I was an avid watcher of the show. I would watch the re-runs to catch up on the beginning seasons.

I remember in high school my senior year I was in an early morning economics class and every Friday morning when we all got to class we would immediately discuss Thursday night's episode of ER. I think it was my senior year when Mark Anthony's character died on the show. I remember bawling like a baby when he died. That was probably the most memorable episode for me.

Of course my favorite character on the show was George Clooney! I loved his on-screen romance with Julianna Marguiles. I hear they are both supposed to be on the finale tonight! The writers kind of left a lot of unanswered questions about their romance. When she left the show she was supposedly moving to be with Clooney. He was the father of her twins. I am hoping tonight will bring us up to date if they both appear on the finale.

I guess ER was the Grey's Anatomy of the 90's. The past several seasons of ER have been kind of rough and I think the show has kind of drug on too long but as it has been said, "it is the end of an era".

What is your favorite ER moment?

Wordful Wednesday

It is time for Wordful Wednesday again! Head over to 7 Clown Circus to play along.

I was looking through my pictures last night trying to find a picture to use today for Wordful Wednesday when I came across this picture.


I just died laughing. It was hilarious at the time and it still is. Jax, our Boxer, really thinks he is a human probably because I treat him like one most of the time. He was laying in my bed one night when I walked in to find him with his head on the pillow. I thought it would be funny to cover him up and take a picture. I thought it would be even funnier to have Dustin get in bed beside him and this is what came of it. I love how Jax is looking back at me like "Hello, you are disturbing my sleep", as if it was his bed.

There isn't much of a story behind this picture other than the fact that it is pretty darn funny!

Happy Wednesday my friends! Oh, and happy April Fool's Day!
