Bowling


Friday night we had the chance to go bowling with the people Jeremy will be working with in the Anesthesia dept. We had a blast, and it was great to meet the people he will be spending lots of time with! Can you tell they think they are professional bowlers?

5 Things

I was recently told by my "professional blogger friends" that I was waiting too long between posts! I have been tagged by several friends so I figured this would make for a good new post...enjoy

Five Things on My To-Do List Today:
-today was actually a calm day, so nothing big here
1. get all of my signed papers ready to be sent home- all of my elem. ed friends can appreciate this one
2. laundry- ahh, never ending
3. buy a gift for a friend's shower
4. exercise- it is a great day for a walk with Tucker
5. enjoy movie night with my hubby


Five snacks I enjoy:
1. ANYTHING CHOCOLATE
2. cottage cheese- I know it sounds gross to most people, but I LOVE it!
3. pretzels
4. grapes
5. baked lays

Five things I would do if I were a billionaire:
- this is a game Jeremy and I always play anytime we go on a long road trip
1. pay off all of my debt (can you say student loans) and any debt that anyone in my family may have
2. start S.N.O.U.T.S.- this is an idea I have for starting a small animal rescue league. I love animals so much and cannot stand the idea of them being mistreated or abused. We hope to have a small farm where the dogs and cats can run free and not be confined to a cage. I would love to work closely with other animal rescue leagues in the area to help them out when they are overcrowded.
3. Travel to areas where people are in need with my family to give our time and money. I think that would be a great way to stay grounded if you had a billion dollars.
4. Buy my husband an awesome hunting camp (of course it would have to have a great lodge where all the ladies could hang out) along with a fishing lake, four wheeler(s), hunting dogs and ducks that automatically fly over at exactly the right time and from the right angle.
5. Selfishly...I would go shopping- I would buy all of the things that are in season now and not on the sale or clearance rack!

Five Bad Habits:
1. making mountains out of mole hills
2. watching way too much T.V.
3. worrying
4. waiting to the last minute to do everything
5. being forgetful

Five Places I Have Lived:
1. Brandon, MS- the house I grew up in
2. Brandon, MS- the house my parents moved to my Senior year
3. Starkville, MS- dorms- those were the days
4. Starkville, MS- the old, creepy house that was haunted- thanks Jerrie Ann
5. Brandon, MS- my current house

Five Jobs I Have Had:
1. Babysitting- I think that is everyone's first job- we thought we were so cool
2. Lifeguard
3. McAlister's
4. Day Cares- lots of them!
5. 3rd Grade Teacher

Five Friends I Would Like to Tag:
1. Cindy Beckwith
2. Emily Witcher
3. Lexie Wren
4. Katie Spence
5. Jerrie Ann and Missy so they will start a blog

Match Day 2008

We didn't think it would ever come... but it finally did! Jeremy and his class had Match Day on March 20th. It was wonderful to have both of our families together for such a special day. Adam, Liz, and Canaan (Jeremy's brother, his wife, and our precious nephew) were even able to come down from Greenville, South Carolina. We found out that Jeremy will be doing his residency here in Jackson in Anesthesiology. We could not have been happier!! Our friends Jack and Missy, Justin and Kate, and Patrick and Crystal will be staying here as well! We are thrilled about being close to our family for the next five years (especially when the baby comes).

Welcome to Our Blog


Jeremy, Sarah and Tucker (our little man)


Jeremy and I are so excited to finally have our blog up and running (thank you so much Cindy for all of your help)! I have enjoyed browsing my friends' blogs over the past few years. It is always so much fun to see a new post, and such a wonderful way to keep up with all of the big and small moments in everyone's lives. I hope that all of you will enjoy our blog as much as we have enjoyed yours!!
