ducks, man

Yesterday  after work I stopped by Tractor Supply to pick up grass seed and wound up bringing four baby ducks home.  I just couldn't help myself!  PS.  This was totally cleared by my husband prior to me pulling up in the driveway.  I don't suggest surprising your significant other with baby ducks.  

Baby frogs, baby ducks, If I don't spit out a baby soon we are going to be Noah's Ark.

So my mom left this morning and although I feel like my life is magically "together" I am so sad that she left.  There is just nothin' like having your mom come back and take care of you.  

I am spoiled.  I will be the first to admit it.  She helped with the mountain of laundry I had on the floor and walked me through actually putting it away when clean.  *shocker*.  She got us new pillows and sheets because she said that our bed looked like a homeless persons.  (no, for real, we didn't have any pillowcases and our sheets had like, balls all over them.  Cotton balls---not real ones)

We worked outside all weekend long and I LOVED EVERY SECOND.  Hello spring, welcome to my world.

Happy Monday

ps.  I love Jack White

Happy Birthday Debbie-Do!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!

This is a picture from the wedding of me and my mom and brother.  We don't resemble each other at all, do we?  

My mom is the bomb and she is coming to see us this weekend which means we get SPOILED.  :)

Here are some reasons why my mom is AHHHHmazing:

1.  She is the BEST southern cook.  

2.  She loves to leave you 3 min. long voicemails just telling you she was trying to call.  

3.  She loves to sing harmony with me.

4.  She can fall asleep at any moment in time.

5.  She would do anything for her family

6.  She loves her grand-cats, chickens, dogs, horses, and now frogs.

Those are just a few.  

I LOVE YOU DEBORAH SUE!

Our Lady Mary has passed away into the spirit world.  

 Let's take a moment of silence and listen to this song:

What's worse is the way she died.  I put that porcelin thing in the fish bowl so that Frank & Beans would have something to hide out in (supposedly that's what frogs like to do).  I was too cheap to buy something from the pet store, so I just washed out this oil burner thing and stuck it in there.  Lady Mary got stuck in one of the holes and drowned.  (Beta's go up to the surface to breathe).  How tragic is that?  Hopefully she went fast.  Poor Lady Mary.

Your namesake, Lady Mary of Downton. 

R.I.P.

and if you were wondering, Frank and Beans are taking this really hard.  They just need time.  

Party Party Party

I love this grainy photo.  We are in a Molly & Kyle sandwich (far left & far right) and I wanted to stay in it all weekend long.  (huh?)

Molly & Kyle are getting married in May and they are one of my most favorite couples to be around.  We showered them with love & ridiculousness this weekend in celebration of the upcoming nuptials.  

My stomach hurts from laughing and my body needed one more day to recover.  Oh, yeah, the time change didn't help one bit.  

I cannot wait until May 5 to continue the partyyyyyyy!

 

Happy Friday!!!

I'm off on a road trip with my boo to go see two of my best friends and a baby!  I am so looking forward to this weekend get away.

Peace OUT.

By the way.  Have you ever watched Dance Moms?  I admit, sometimes I watch it for pure train wreck pleasure, but doesn't Abby Lee remind you of the bus driver on South Park?
