My Hero!!!

I have been practicing the art of fishing pretty regularly lately and I was recently shown up by my cousin who turned out to be a leader in a contest in Alaska. That being said, here is the picture of my cousin Ron, my new hero!!! Way to go Ron.

My Exciting News...

I AM ENGAGED!!!
In case you couldn't tell, that was me yelling from a mountain top. On Tuesday, August 4, 2009 I officially became a fiance! I think it sounds pretty neat myself. In case your wondering, it was Will who asked, and of course I said yes. I will give anyone a very detailed account of the events (just give me a call) but a short version is that we went for a boat ride on the river and he asked me to marry him.

I can not find one word to express my love for Will. He makes me happier than anyone has ever made anyone. Anyone who knows me knows that I love a little reassurance in everything I do and he is the first person to back me up in all of my decisions and gives me his honest opinion everytime I ask him. He compliments me everyday and he honestly makes me feel like the most beautiful person on earth. We laugh together and cry together. He has taught me so many new things and when I might take a little longer that normal to figure something out he is the most patient and kind man. Although my family is not that hard to win over, they have all met him and they absolutely adore him.

So thank you William Richard Alexander for loving and trusting me enough to be your other half. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to become a part of your family. I cant wait for the next chapter of our life to start together.

I LOVE YOU WILL

Finally!..

Yay! I finally know how to work a computer program! This is a very exhilarating feeling. So, this is William Alexander and I. We went to Utah for my cousins wedding and we were fortunate enough to get some photos of us snapped! Thanks Jessica. I went camping with Will and his family last weekend and we did a little fishing while we were there. I caught quite a whopper and Will cooked it on the grill that night. Fresh fish is delicious. And I was the provider of dinner for myself and Wills mom, Virginia. What can I say, I am now a resourceful woman who is becoming one with mother nature. Although, i must clarify something on that last part... If one more bug whizzed past my face while I had something in my hands I was likely to go a teensy bit insane!!! Not a big deal, I will get used to it. Since it seems I am able to catch my own food I can invest on more bug spray!!!!!

The Update..

Alright, time to get down to business. First of all, I am now a fisher woman. Go ahead and read it again if you need to. That's right. I am getting so good that I almost touched one of the fish I caught last weekend! I do have pictures of some of these amazing looking animals and as soon as I figure out how to put them on here I expect to see alot of comments like "WOW" and "GADZOOKS", I know you will all be jealous. Seriously though, it is somewhat of an enjoyable hobby.

Next on the list, I have met an amazing and young gentleman by the name of Will. We met through a mutual friend and I put on my irirresistible charm and tricked him into dating me! I am pretty sneaky! He truly is my best friend and he makes me happy everyday. He has already gotten over meeting the family (immediate and extended). We are very easily entertained! Just give us a newly released DVD and a puzzle and you wont hear from us until that puzzle is finished!

I am going to have someone help me put some pictures on here. I mean after all, what is a blog for if you can't show up the people you know with a picture of a prize winning fish!

Holy hannah I remembered.....

I am completely amazed that I even remembered my password! 4 whole months without a word from yours truly! I have been getting heat from all sides for not updating and tonight is as good a night as any. I PROMISE I will update all of my loyal fans (ie: Debra, Adele, and Nicole) tomorrow! MUAH!

Adele gets her 15 minutes!!!

How adorable is this priceless little gem of a picture?! Thank you Associated Press, Thank you! My mom and dad attended the international CES in Las Vegas last week and they got to meet some professional athletes and actors before my mother became famous in her own right. Although this is amazing to my family and I, the following needs to be said. First of all, when the royalties for this picture start swarming in, I am going to have to keep the fans away from her at all times, and I am not sure my Dad has the pure brute force it would take to get the crazies away from the house. Secondly, my mother has started saying, "I'll pencil you in." all day. How am I supposed to call her at all hours of the day when she has book signings and photo shoots?
Well Adele, I must say, I am without a doubt your #1 fan! I love you mom!
P.S. Is Joba Chamberlain dating anyone right now? Have your people call his people, mom! I have to settle down sometime, I guess I could settle for a NY Yankee!

2009!!!

I have been dreading this little post because it is about my resolutions! I have given up on losing weight as a resolution. I mean, it has worked great for the last 10 years but its time to really change the little things about myself. I have decided that I need to stop judging people. I might not have as much to say when I give this little pleasure up but at least maybe I will figure out that I will feel better about myself. I'm just thinkin out loud! Also, I am going to figure out how to put pictures on my blog! It's beginning to look a little sad and wordy! I am going to strive to keep my little peice of land I call my apt. clean. This might need to be worked on ALOT but I think I can do it. I want to learn how to stop going out to eat every day. It is seriously getting bad, I dont have anything in my apartment because I just go grab lunch with a friend. These are just a few of the things I am going to work on. I tell you this because know I am going to have people that will hold me to these changes! Lets give this a few weeks and see how sunny my outlook is then! P.S. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
