Dinasaur Land

So, my mom went to wake McKay up the other day and heard a woodpecker outside.
So McKay jumps up and gets his shotgun and stumbles outside in his underwear to shoot it.
(Total redneck!)
The woodpecker flew away and McKay stumbles back inside and says,
"Mom, I'm so mad at you, you ruined my dream!!" She said "What was your dream?"
He said "I was in Dinosaur land and it was AWESOME!"

Franklin Frenzy

So I have come to the conclusion that my High School is pretty much the bomb.com

After watching this, your going to think the same thing.

So be prepared.

So there's this sport called Basketball.

High School Basketball

And with that sport, comes a student section.

And for some reason, this year,

(oh wait I know why, cause my Senior class is off the chain)

it has been the most over the top,

amazing

incredible,

most enthusiastic

loud & obnoxious

group of teenagers I have ever been a part of.

And I am proud to be a part of that.

So a great big shout-out goes out to the senior boys who made this all happen.

Nathan P. Matt D. Brian D. Matt K. Khari B. & Alex B.

Congratulations boys, you have created an amazing new thing that everyone will appreciate years down the road.

You should be proud of yourselves.

So that being said, let me introduce you to.

The Franklin Frenzy.

Yeah we kinda know we're awesome.

But you can still tell us we are.

*wink*

Lowkey Shocked

I just want to know one thing..

How do you go from this..

To this...

Wow!
You go girl!

#singlegirlswag

So I gotta admit.

The only reason I hate Valentines Day is because I'm single.
I'm 99.9999% sure that if you were to ask any girl that is currently in a relationship, they would say that today's holiday is the best one all year.
Yeah, well I beg to differ.

Some people may say that it's "Single Awareness Day", right?

Let me tell you how it goes does at the High.
All the single {high school} ladies get to mop around school while their self esteem level lowers to about 10% after seeing all the cute boyfriends smother their girlfriends with giant teddy bears, millions of un-nameable chocolates, dozens and dozens of roses with unnecessary glass vases, and giant obnoxious balloons attached the their backpack blocking the entire flippin' hallway.
Like, come on people.
We all know it's your day to rub it in other people's faces just how "hunky dory" ya'lls relationship is, but please, keep it to a minimum.
Then I'll stop feeling so bad about myself.

But lets be honest here.
We all wish it was us.
With boyfriends that thoughtful.
and caring.
and...
well.
Scratch that.
Just a boyfriend would be nice.

I am now slowing phasing into my more positive attitude..
right. about.
now.
Well girls like me use today as an excuse to embrace the #singlegirlswag .
You know...
to kinda prove to people that you don't need a man to be happy.
But in reality, you feel like you do cause all you do is think about other people's relationships that aren't even yours to worry about.
Yeah.
That's me.
Always the mediator.
*wink*
I just have to keep telling myself.
I. LOVE. BEING. SINGLE.

I don't know how awesome your mom is (or atleast use to be), but I can assure you that Momma Cram got most of ya'll beat.
I have always had this memory growing up...
Of waking up Valentines Day morning, walking into my bathroom, turning on the light, to find a streamer covered-heart smothered-pink and red girly decorated bathroom.

Yeah it was awesome, and I can promise you that my little girls will be spoiled just as much as I was when I was little.

And will have off the chain valentines day cards.
Like this one.

With the accompaniment of these delicious cupcakes.

So on a lighter note, I leave you with a little bit of sweet-ness.
Enjoy!

{Found this baby on Pinterest! Hope it brightens your day!}

"So today I was in Hallmark buying my mom a Happy Birthday card when I noticed this old man stnding in front of the Valentines card section contemplating which one to get. I decide to go over and I ask him “Are you getting a Valentine’s Day for your wife?” in which he replies 'No my wife died 3 years ago from breast cancer but I still buy her roses and a card and bring them to her grave to prove to her that she was the only one that will ever have my heart' "

Check out my last year's post about Valentines Day here

Heaven. Literally.

Um.
Two words.
Marry Me.

YNS

So there's this girl in the cyperland of blog world who refers to herself as "The Hussy".

You gotta admit.

For all those LDS people out there reading this post, it's almost like instant popularity when you find out someone is also Mormon.

You immediately feel like you have a connection with the person.

Even though you have never met them in your life, and will never meet in your life.

Am I right?

Moving on...

Well she too has a blog and it's called "Lowe Family News".

She is a mother of 5, whose husband a.k.a "Lover" is deployed in Afghanistan.

Well she is notorious in the blog world for having a continuously occurring post labeled, "It's Inappropriate".

She is that lady you see on the side in the corner booth of a restaurant awkwardly holding her phone in a strange position, trying to snap an awkward and awesome and (might I add) most likely inappropriate picture of someone doing something hilarious.

Well I too have many inappropriate things that I come across in my day to day life.

I have so many random and awkwardly awesome pictures on my phone as well as Mrs. Hussy herself.

So now i'm going to be that lady you see on the side in the corner booth of a restaurant awkwardly holding her phone in a strange position, trying to snap an awkward and awesome and (might I add) most likely inappropriate picture of someone doing something hilarious.

So.

Without further ado.

I introduce to you.

YNS.

Stands for "Your Not Serious"

There are so many things that happen to me, and my only response to myself is "Your not serious."

YNS: Can I just say something.

This will never happen.

Never.

Not even in your perfect dream land of a backyard.

They just want you to buy those sweet looking couches and lantern thingy's hanging from the trees.

Don't fall for it.

Don't do it.

YNS: So I walk into my room and walk passed this mirror and go "Woah, dang do I look skinny these days. These new years resolutions must really be working out for me."

Yeah well then I realized that it was a very long...skinny...tall mirror, that was siting on the ground...tilted up...

while I stood reeeeaaalllyyy far away from it.

Yeah thanks, skinny mirror.

I still love you though.

YNS: I think this just speaks for itself.

And I know exactly whats going through your mind right now.

"How can I re-create this genius idea."

You can't.

You little copycat.

YNS: Yeah I miss Reagan too.

Sometimes.

But my sister Reagan.

Not the former President Reagan.

Just sayin'

YNS: Why in the world did I take this ridiculous picture of me "trying" to pull out he concrete key that is clearly permanently stuck into the ground?

Oh, it's just for "show" right?

I was thinking more along the lines of King Arthur...

YNS: This doesn't count.

Not for long though.

Then it will be history.

YNS: Story of my freaking life these days.

It's tough being Mormon.

Most day's, though, it's a breeze.

*wink*

YNS: Oh yeah, this is Reagan.

Passion for Design

Interior Design has always been a passion of mine.

I take after my grandma Gussie on this one...

The second I step my foot into places like Pottery Barn, TJ Maxx, or even Goodwill, my creative juices start flowing.

It's kinda obsessive actually.

I am constantly thinking of new ideas for my room, house, and even future home.

Oh gosh.

Let me just say one thing...

My house.

When I grow up.

And have kids of my own.

Is going to be the BOMB.com

Shabby Chic/Vintage/Girly/Cozy/Chill/SOUTHern/Quaint/Fairytale

all wrapped up into one southern white house with a red door and black shutters.

*wink*

So basically my house is going to be Anthro from the dark distressed hardwood floors to the lofted ceiling.

Sweet.

So you know what that means...

$$$

Better start thrifting, and better yet Pinterest-ing!

Which brings me my next point.

Pinterest (if your not human and have heard of it) is this incredible website where people can share creative ideas, awesome photography, and to die for recipes.

It is full of people posting steps of inexpensive ways to "re-create" things that you already have, into works of art!

Oh man,

Once you get going.

You can't stop.

So just a fair warning.

It's extremely obsessive.

Well, I'm not the best with my money

(lets be honest, i like to shop) so I appreciate the genius-ness of some of the things I find on this website.

It reminded me a lot of this book that I was flipping through at a cute corner shop in Savannah, GA.

It's basically a "How To" book showing you step by step instructions on how to create an awesome frame by using old books!

Now, let me just say, I do not own this book.

However, I will.

Because I may or may not have just found it on Amazon for half price!

*wink*

But who's counting?
