TV for Me

I really hate to admit this, but I do like a few TV shows. I know I shouldn't like so much TV, but I do. oh well. That is life. The Shows I like are Greys anatomy, I have watched almost faithfully since the searies started. Rob and I love Criminal Minds. I think their job would be one of the coolest ever. I also may like Dr. Spencer Reid. He is probably one of my favorite Characters I have ever seen. and of course, I am a Gleek. and proud of it! I didnt like Glee at first, I thought it was weird, and then I really sat down and watched it, now I am hooked! I love all the music remixes. I will admit one or two of the characters drive me nuts, but the music is all worth it! So basically, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursdy I pretty have some form of entertainment!

Favorite Movie(s)

I dont know if I have a "favorite" movie. But I do have a few movies I enjoy watching, that I could watch a few times over. One (and these are in no particular oder) would have to be phantom of the opera. I love the music, and I love Gerard Butler.


Another favorite is The Prince of Egypt. Yes, I am 24 years old, and I like animated movies, I like the music in this movie as well (there may be a running theme here...)



Some notible mentions are: Shawshank redemption, 27 dresses, Sleepy Hollow, The Harry Potter Series, Remember the titans, A walk to remember, Rent, Dirty Dancing, The proposal, Finding Neverland, and Newsies.

Love Like Crazy

When I read Day 1- Your favorite song, I paniced. If anybody knows me, they know how much I LOVE music, picking a favorite song, is almost imposible to me. I have always like the Song "Standing outside the fire" by Garth Brooks. It has always been a great reminder about how I want to live my life. However, This is Rob and I's blog, so I thought I would do a song for both of us. The song I chose was "Love like Crazy" by Lee Brice. I love this song (if you couldnt tell by the blog title, and the lyrics in the blog title.) This is exactly how I want my love to be. I think it has great advice, and I love the music. my favorite part is "Never get to old to call her Baby." and "Overuse I love you." I have given the music video, and the lyrics, I hope you enjoy!



Love Like Crazy- Lee Brice.
They called him crazy when they started out
Said seventeen's too young to know what loves about
They've been together fifty-eight years now
That’s crazy

He brought home sixty-seven bucks a week
He bought a little 2 bedroom house on Maple Street
Where she blessed him with six more mouths to feed
Yeah that’s crazy

Just ask him how he did it; he'll say pull up a seat
It'll only take a minute, to tell you everything
Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse I love you
Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense
Never let your prayin' knees get lazy
And love like crazy

They called him crazy when he quit his job
Said them home computers, boy they'll never take off
He sold his one man shop to Microsoft
They paid like crazy

Just ask him how he made it
He'll tell you faith and sweat
And the heart of a faithful woman,
Who never let him forget

Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse I love you
Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense
Never let your prayin knees get lazy
And love like crazy

Always treat your woman like a lady
Never get too old to call her baby
Never let your prayin knees get lazy
And love like crazy

They called him crazy when they started out
They've been together fifty-eight years now

Ain't that crazy?

Crazy is what we do best!

I feel like I should blog more, but I can never find the time to do so. This summer seemed crazy with all of our "mini-vacations." I was always excited to go, but I was also excited for a quiet weekend at home too. I guess Im still waiting for that relaxing weekend. Since Bear Lake, a lot has been added to, or changed in our everyday activities. Here are a few updates.
Rob has started as the assistant manager at the Milcreek branch. Rob started at this branch, and was really excited to get back there. He is really enjoying it. He has also started School. He is taking 2 classes, a math class, and a criminal justice class. Softball has started up again. and He has taken up Golf. He is injoying it, and its a nice way to enjoy the last of the summer heat, and bring in the cool autumn weather.
As for me, In mid to late August, we had some changes in managment at work, which led to a promotion for me. I am now the team lead for the disclosure department. Its been good learning a lot of new information. Along with the promotion, It came along with a lot more overtime. I worked 23 days in a row (including Saturdays and Sundays)I always feel exhausted, but the check and the experiences are nice. I am also hoping to learn how to sew. My mom and sister Brittany, are great, and Im hoping I can pick up a new hobby. Maybe I will have a creative outlet after all. I've also had the oppertunity to surround myself with great friends from high school. We went to lunch on a Saturday, and I hope its something we can continue to do.
Other than that, Rob and I are trying to find a place to move to when our lease is up in December, so if you have any suggestions, please let us know!

Fairwell to a great man




On September 8th, 2010 my Grandpa Luing Passed away. It was a bittersweet day for all of us, and everyone that knew him. I was up at my sister Brittany's house, when she got a call from my mom, saying the Hospice nurse didnt think Grandpa would make it through tomorrow night. I left her house right away, taking my Nephew Konnor with me for support. I got there as fast as I could, trying to explain to Kon what we were doing. Kon is a 5 year old, and I hoped and prayed I was saying the right things, so he would understand. When we got there, I was able to sneek down and have a few moments alone with my grandpa, and say goodbye. I was also able to see Kon come down, and give "Papa-great" a kiss and tell him that he loved him. My grandpa didnt say anything, but He would squeeze my hand to answer my questions. My sister mindi was the last of my siblings to arrive at about 6:55PM, at 7:00, My grandpa took his final breath, and returned to his heavenly father, with his loved ones surrounding him. Grandpa was diagnosed with Cancer about 9 years ago, then he was in remission. In early August, we were told that they doctors only thought he had 6 months left.
