fill in the blank friday.

Yay!  Today is the day I've been waiting all week for! 

Wait, I just lied, I've actually been waiting for tomorrow, because as soon as I give my school presentation tomorrow, I can concentrate 100% on my WEDDING DAY!  :D

Anyway, once again Lauren's blog hosts this, and its just the greatest!


1.   Holiday spirit      doesn't usually kick in until close to Christmas for me...BUT this year, since I'm engaged, I'm feeling very Holiday Spirity :)  .

2.  The holidays are incomplete without   eggnog, a candy cane under my pillow, and a Naomi Portland to Coos Bay car ride .

3.  My favorite things to do around the holidays is    wear scarves and gloves, go to Shore Acres and score awesome gifts for my family   .

4.  A holiday tradition my family and I have is    opening our presents on Christmas Eve.  Every year since I can remember my mom has made us all pajama's, so we open our presents the night before so that we can all wear our special jamies to bed. :)   .

5.  Holiday music is      something I'm indifferent about.. I like and enjoy it, but don't have any on my itunes, and usually don't crave listening to it .

6.  This year, I'll be spending the holidays      with both Mark and I's family in Coos Bay.  Christmas Eve with mine, and half and half with the two families on Christmas day.  It will be my first Christmas with Mark, and being engaged!!   .

7.  Holiday wish list       1. All the clothes in J.Crew (thanks to Lauren's Blog!!) 2.  Nothing else really.  I like little things, I'm not big on getting huge expensive presents, I love scarves and gloves and books and things that mean something as opposed to costing a whole bunch     .


Thanks for reading everyone!  I hope you all have a fabulous weekend!  :)

    Hey Tracy! Amy told me you had a blog, I hopped over, one thing led to another, and now I'm following you.

    I'm so glad I got to watch your video of Mark proposing! While Jesse proposing me in his truck in a dark, deserted gravel road was perfect and all, I do wish we had a video of it too. So, you're very lucky! And oddly enough, not two weeks ago I was on facebook thinking out loud to Jesse and I said that these two friends I had in high school started dating not too long ago, and I was actually surprised you guys weren't engaged yet because you've both seemed so happy since you been with each other. Little did I know. And daaaang. That ring is gorgeous!

    I can say that after 3 years of marriage with my guy I couldn't love him more, and I can't believe what a good time we have together just hanging out still. I hope and pray you guys have the same fortune, and I think you're well on your way! The only sucky thing is that if you're ever a maid of honor you get the horrible title of matron of honor which made me feel like an old bitty. But maybe it won't bother you. Where am I going with this?

to live is Christ, to die is gain.

The apostle Paul wrote those words in Philippians 1:21...God did some miraculous work thru Paul didn't he!? After Paul saw the light (literally) he traveled to Judea, Syria, Cilicia, Galatia, Pamphylia, Asia, Macedonia, Achaia and Italy. WOW. I've shared God's word....via skype to my bestie Nicole and...uhhh..shoot. What am I doing?! Yikes, I'm so ready to go, to tell of God's glory, to "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and teaching." (2 Tim. 4:2) Its convicting to know that I really haven't done as much as I could be doing, if I died, I have no doubt I would meet Jesus, my Lord and Savior would know my heart and how much I love Him and my willingness and readiness to share Him with the world..but I also know He will stand before me and say, Look at what you could have had, if only you had come to me sooner, done My work rather than yours. In one of my earlier posts I had writ...

Midnight in Paris

I just stumbled upon these seriously gorgeous photos of Marion Cotillard and had to share! I am now itching to see Midnight in Paris because of its 93% rating from Rotten Tomatoes {and dang it's hard to please them!}. Have you seen it, did you enjoy it? xxoo

Dinner Fail, Dessert Win!

Last nights dinner was supposed to look like this Instead it turned out like this It was a serious fail. The flavor was good, but it looked terrible and took more than twice as long to make as we thought it would. Oh and, it was a bit too crispy. BUT Dessert redeemed me, it was Kiwi Lemon Cheesecake - Yum! The recipe called for lemon curd, and when I saw how expensive it was at the store, I decided to try and make my own! It turned out great, and this was the end result It was not quite as solid as it should have been, but delicious non-the-less! Both of these recipes were from Rachel Ray's Everyday magazine. It was exciting making new things, hopefully next time they turn out a bit better :) xxoo
