Today I slept in until 11, haven't done that in well over a week. It felt nice and I know people will be jealous and judge :) GO AHEAD! I feel rested!

I am so glad today is friday
So naturally i am gonna link up for a 5 On Friday post!


- I did not get home from Tennessee until Monday evening, i was a day behind in school already and sorta freaking out, I know how much my coding class takes. I got good news the assignment was shortened. I got ALL three classes done yesterday morning, so now i can enjoy my weekend with friends and Delaney! YAY

- So i have started a new journey with Erica at Loyal RUN... We text all day everyday and are each other support system. I and just in a runt with my weight, i hate running i hate exercising, so i gotta change my mind about that! I am starting by changing my eating habits. My dt pop is my weakness, it will be hard completely cut that out i am down to one a day. I got organized and went grocery shopping so i have no excuse to NOT COOK. I CAN DO THIS!!!!

- Yesterday was my first full day of eating better then normal. I had my shake for breakfast, then i had two small turkey wraps with some baked chips and a banana & drank green tea, ate a snack of an apple and string cheese, then for dinner i had a grilled chicken salad  and before bed i had some grapes. I am still getting organized and researching good food and healthy recipes.  I CAN DO THIS!!!

Update on my Stormy

Miss Storm turned 5 months on November 9th.

My poor baby will be going through surgery in a few weeks, i am gonna be a mess. She is getting spayed and her dew claws removed.

Storm is getting so big, she is now probably 45 lbs pushing 50... will know end of next week what exactly she weighs. She started the next set of training classes yet we haven't been in two weeks due to the trainer being sick, us on vacation and her not calling us back. I am over taking her to classes. She knows all her basic commands, Sit, lie down, shake and the stay and come command are a work in progress. She doesn't like to "come" when we call her. She is def. calming down and her biting has calmed down too. She is still my ornery girl, tries to find something to get into because we aren't paying attention to her. She steals, shoes, socks and Tevis' shorts. Storm is a counter surfer, she will get everything off the counters.
this was a while back, but she still does it lol

She eats about 5 cups a food a day along with her treats and we still think she looks thin sometimes. She tells us when she is hungry, she will flip her bowl over and look at us. 
Her crate is in our room and anymore we put her in there to sleep, she is getting too big and she gets hot being up in bed with us and ends up jumping down anyways. I am so glad she likes her crate more now, makes me feel better she just goes right to sleep. 

she still will not sleep on her bed we bought her, she likes the cold floor.

This is what happens when she spends a day at doggy daycare :) She curls up and sleeps next to me, I Love it! 

So basically you don't mess with her daddy! Before this picture I was trying to hug and love on Tevis and she jumped right up there and broke it up haha. This was today, so you can see how big she is getting!!! 

Storm is just your average energetic puppy! She loves to play fetch, take walks and run in the backyard! She is a handful at times but she has really calmed down, which makes things MUCH easier on me! She goes to doggy daycare at least once a week sometimes twice. She has been to the groomers twice since we have gotten her, she loves getting baths. Things with Storm and Delaney are getting a little better, each time seems to be better, once day storm will realize Delaney isn't her chew toy lol. 

I share photos of Storm on my IG and Twitter already so make sure you follow me and continue to see the cuteness of my puppy! Hope everyone has a great Thursday! We get to see Delaney tonight, she has a program going on at school and then we get her tomorrow for the weekend. We can't wait to see her :)

Tennessee Trip 2013, Photo Dump

I am back from vacation! I sure missed reading blogs and chatting and interacting with the blogging community! Today's post will be just showing some pictures from our trip.

We left Thursday am and got back Monday evening. Storm stayed with our friend Karen all weekend at our house so we saved money and did not have to board her up and I had more peace at mind that she was very well taken care of!

This vacation was MUCH NEEDED! We plan on doing it same time every year, and i am just perfectly fine with that. Next year we are gonna research a better cabin with more rooms, Wifi, and bigger TVs.

Our Cabin with a MASSIVE hill to get down and up to it. I am glad to be outta Tenn. driving in the mountain made me very sick to my stomach. 

I only took a picture of our bedroom. Three King bedrooms, two downstairs, one upstairs. 

We had a nice fireplace and a jet tub

Our living room

Theater room, the main reason why we got this cabin, because lots of football was watched. BUT this room was small and it got very hot and was upstairs. 

Tevis' life long best friend Denny, him and his fiance came up from Florida 

Mandy and I got Henna tats, was gonna tease Tevis and say it was real

Karen, Denny's Fiance we clicked right away when I met her over the summer and was so excited to spend more time with her

Denny and Karen, they are troopers! SO GLAD they came!

all of us waiting to eat dinner at Old Mill, our all time favorite place, GREAT FOOD!

My hunny and I, love him. 

Our friends Steve and Mandy, love spending time with them! 
Denny on hardly any sleep and he was the BEST chef ever, lots of yummy food consumed all weekend

We did this a lot, sat and chilled on the deck. 
some pretty views :) 

Love the smokey mountains


Now i am back home, we missed out stormy. Time to get some laundry done and get started on homework for the week. Like i said before this was a much needed vacation and I am glad to be home but miss all our friends already. 

I have 5 weeks of school left and then 2 or 3 weeks off, I CANT WAIT! 
Now that vacation is over i can get focused on Christmas gifts! Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying their Tuesday! 

Storm had her first snow experience!!! will be fun when we get MORE and see how she plays in it!
