Addiction to sad songs

I don't know why but I love listening to sad songs, since I normally have a tear in my eye at the end.  I LOVE country music too, which is FILLED with sad songs.

So...I was just listening to Pandora and Kenny Chesney's "There Goes My Life" came on and I found myself repeating the song.  Not sure why since it is about two high school kids that end up having a baby.  The whole premise of the song is summed up in this line...

 "that mistake he thought he made, covers up the refrigerator...he loves that little girl"

It made me start to think that no matter what happens in life, the good and bad, we can get through it.  Sometimes it is not until you are faced with a hard situation that you realize how strong of a person you really are.  And sometimes that sitaution makes you a better person!!

Sorry for such a powerful post on this sweltering hot hump day!  I promise to write a lighter one next :)

Father's Day



I am lucky enough to be blessed with such an amazing father.  Now that I have a daughter of my own, I realize how important it is to be surrounded by people you love (yes a tear is flowing down my check). 

My dad not only worked his butt off when we were little to provide for us but he also was involved in our lives, especially when it came to sporting events.  He would work all day then come home and do side jobs, not even taking a shower until 11pm.  Back then I did not appreciate his hard work and dedication but I now see how that molded the person I am today.  I try to possess his work ethic and dedication but also find time to laugh.

The good come with the bad.  My dad and I are also two very stubborn and hard-headed people.  We like things our way.  We like to argue.  Most importanly we like to be right (ALL THE TIME)!

I just want to take the time now to say thank you to my dad for everything. 

Not only did I grow up with an amazing dad but also an amazing Pop Pop and godfather!!  YES I am one lucky girl.

Happy Father's Day weekend to all dads out there!!!

Fashion: Pre and Post Mommyhood

I am no fashionista, but I certainly tried harder to look fashionable prior to being a mom, mainly cause I had the time.   Also, I only had to really think about myself. 

To sum it up...





Ah one day maybe I will get back to my somewhat "fashionista" ways!
