Memories

Of course right now in my life is crazy. I haven't really updated because I've been dealing with about 1,000 other things that is going on with me right now. Of course since the last month I've been at doctor appointments, calling on call doctors, and going crazy. . . Well let's just say my food selections probably aren't the best for a Weight Watcher! Yeah I'm up some LBS, but I'm alright with that. I've decided lets focus on feeling normal again.

So last night was Kyle's birthday! He told me he wanted waffles! Of course it brought back memories. 5 years ago my Mom's Mom died. Grandma Pape made "the" best waffles! As kids we loved them! When we had to stay home sick and went to Grandma's we always had "Grandma's Waffles", with Smucker's Blueberry Syrup, and a glass of Five Alive! So Last night I decided to break out the waffle iron we got as a wedding gift! ( Thanks Aunt Alisa!) Text my brother's wife for the waffle recipe! (My brother was the one Grandkid that was overly obsessed with Grandma's waffles, he inherited the heart shape waffle iron and recipe!)

(breakfast today of course!)

No worries my friends. . . I will share the recipe our family LOVES with you!

Grandma's Waffles

3 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup melted butter or margarine
1 Tbsp Vanilla (optional)
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tbsp baking powder
2 tsp. sugar

Beat Whole eggs in a bowl until thick.
Beat in milk and melted butter.
Combine remaining ingredients. Sift into egg mixture and beat well.
Bake and serve with desired topping

Enjoy them! I know I DO!!

My life thrown in a bag!

Today, I was going through my purse looking for my Pandora bracelet. I busted out laughing, thinking of the post "Show me yours and I'll show you mine!" That Jess posted. Oh the random-ness of my purse! Haha! Please enjoy the HILARIOUS random crap that I have packed into my purse!



Let's Begin. . .
- Of course the Coach purse (Yes I also got it from the outlet and got a steal of a deal on it)
- Hobo Clutch that I carry as my wallet (Not so much as a steal of a deal, but awesome)
- iPhone
- iPhone car charger
- Sunglasses
- Keys
- Bed Bath & Beyond Gift Cards
- Birth Control
- Tampons
- Meds
- Orbit Gum
- Tanning goggles
- Book light
- Digital Camera (Not pictured because I was using it)
- 2 camera batteries
- Straws
- Neosporin
- Butter Knife
- One Lucky Troll
- Our cork from our champagne from our Wedding
- Zantac
- Silly Bands
- Chapstick
- Highlighter
- Pen
- Weight Watcher weigh in book
- Breathsavers
- 1 hot roller pin
- 1 snack size baggie full of crunched up pretzels
- 1 of Kyle's contacts
- 1 smushed up WW Peanut Butter & Chip Delight 2pt bar (My current favorite)
- Benadryl anti itch gel
- 3 chopstick helpers
- 2 random candies I have no clue where they are from
- Random letters and envelopes
- Random ponytail holders (most likely hidden under something)
- (not pictured because it's in the Hobo wallet... 4 sets of earrings and a ring on top of the normally wallet crap!)

Needless to say, I found NO Pandora Charm Bracelet! I'm bad about just throwing jewelry in my purse during the day.

YIPPPIE

So today was the day!!


We got our wedding pictures back!!!!


Enjoy!


(Note, Yes in pictures I'm wearing a pink trash bag. Because as I was driving to get my dress put on, it decided to have a hell of a down pour!)

Squeee

So it's so hard to wait. . .

Our photographer is a friend of a friends. I adore him! After we signed our contract, his girlfriend got an amazing opportunity to go to an awesome hair school in Florida. So they packed up in left in November! So when he came back too good ole KC, he had lots and lots of shoots! (Not to mention 2 other weddings besides ours) Well he made it back to FL the first of July and has been working on tons of editing!

Of course I'm just itching on the edge of my seat wanting to see my pictures! Today he posted some sneak peeks of all his shoots in good ole KC!

Here you go my loves!!

Walking out to the Limo!

Mr. Awesome himself!

Holy Crap. . .

So the wedding is 2 weeks away. . .

Where the hell has the last year and a half gone! I figured I needed to come here, maybe it will relieve some stress!

I honestly haven't had any wedding stress till this week. Where do I begin. Tuesday was just a wedding hell day. Since the calendar read JUNE, I think EVERYONE had to become a thorn in my ass! Not only do I have appointments with every vendor the next week, I just started the new job on Tuesday so I had to have Mom take over dealing with vendors. She's been a champ about it, she's already stressing. I feel horrible because I had been the one dealing with everything and just handing over the contracts. Now she's getting all stressed about things because she does want everything to be perfect for me! I keep telling her that I know it's going to be perfect!

Yesterday and Today I've basically been trying to deal with people who think I just send out RSVP's to waste my time adding them to the invites. Seriously, I send out invites 6 weeks before the RSVP was to be back and I was missing half. Having to stalk people to ask if they are coming or not. Really its 2 weeks before the wedding, I have much better things to do with my life people!!!!

Also, I really just shouldn't be such a nice person. Yes, my one and only request for the wedding was for an open bar. So I wanted to have the wedding at a hotel so people wouldn't have to drink and drive. So the discount rate is good till 2 weeks before the wedding, so it is done tomorrow. Yet when I remind people who had asked me for the hotel info, get snippy with me for saying something.

I think that's all I have to vent about. . . I'm sure I'll have plenty more to come!

Some one pinch me please

I will need to mark May 28, 2010 as a wonderful day in life!!!

Let's first begin with . . . Good Bye Obese Megan. . . HELLO OVERWEIGHT MEGAN!

I rocked Weigh in! I pulled off losing 3.4, which put me at 184.2!! (Since I'm 5'6 185 is considered Overweight) I jump on the scale, the leader asks how my week was.... The only thing that came out of my mouth was good. . I might cry when the final number shows up! My eyes got all watered, she freaked out that I had lost 78 pounds, asking if I had before pictures in my wallet! I got my 75 pound charm for my keychain. I've been glowing ever since!!

I trot myself in feeling the best feeling I've ever had! I was at the point that NO one could possibly even make my day bad!

Then around 2 this afternoon. . . I was offered a FULL TIME JOB! I start Tuesday!!
