Sad night.....

Well friends, tonight has been a sad night......I had to say goodbye to Jason Castro on American Idol. I must admit....I am obsessed with him. There, I said it. I get "giddy" about watching him every Tuesday and Wednesday night. (I'm pretty sure I was a hippie in a previous life) I think he is absolutely beautiful! THOSE EYES!!!! MMMmmmm, MMMmmmm, MMMmmmm! Jason, if you happen upon this blog, just know....you will always be MY Americal Idol! :)

Dega Baby!

Just wanted to post a couple of pics of Chase and Traci from "Dega" this past weekend. They are so cute to me!

Cold beer, rednecks, and Dale Jr......Don't get no better'n 'at!

(or that's what they say)

Traci, you look WAY too good for Dega, girl! Chase, love the doo rag. (how do you spell doo rag???)

2 years together...

(on our honeymoon in St. John)

Happy 2 year Anniversary to us! I can't believe it's already been 2 years since we said "I do"! They have been a wonderful 2 years! We have definitely been thrown some curve balls, but I can't imagine having anyone by my side other than this wonderful man! He is such a gift from God. Thank you, Lord for my amazing husband!

Happy Anniversary, Gray! I look forward to many many more years together! I love you!
