The back door of our house in in our bedroom, so, when I let the dogs out before bed I will sometimes stand outside and wait for them. Last night, the backyard was so bright from the moon. Of course, I snuck back in for my phone and had to get a picture of those clouds and the bright moon. It was so pretty! 🌝 https://www.instagram.com/p/CKmiJMzDV3l7NXkHNSEeQhVfOWHhoSA_GzBADU0/?igshid=85mc6jx3hcon

I have a few pictures and stories to share. 1. Is last night’s sunset from our back yard. The colors were so pretty. 2. Festus and Gabe spending quality time together. Festus had the biggest smile during those tummy rubs. 3 & 4. Addy is enjoying Connor’s room. She even found the perfect little random shelf to sit on. 5. Somewhere in Texas between Wichita Falls and Midland, we encountered what I guess was a dust storm? The air was so thick at one point that we couldn’t see the sun anymore. 6. While I was back at the old house packing, Festus found a comfy spot to nap. I think he was there for a while before I noticed him which made me laugh. 7. I wanted to document how organized and efficient Brandon was. Anytime he could find an opportunity to work smarter not harder he took it. Here, he had put a lot of our boxes in the garage, was loading them in his pickup truck, driving it up the driveway, and then loading the u-haul. Going up and down the hill while moving is madness so I’m glad he had that idea. https://www.instagram.com/p/CKMxISfDDoE1-q9VZRX35Qcdn6qrcW3SgJu5oY0/?igshid=1x96v2vunj0el

Here’s a few more fun things we saw on the road. (1) Brandon pointed out this big, flatbed truck that had particularly interesting cargo. The driver strapped down a mini Tonka truck and it was just too cute. (2 and 3) My new fascination is finding weird decorative statues at gas stations. Today’s gems were a skull decorated as corn. And the other was a shelf of motorcycles. Some had cow skulls with native head dresses and some had steampunk dragon heads. I mean what more could you ask for?! The collector/hoarder in me wants to buy them, but instead I will take pictures of these lovelies and share them with you. On another note, we found a house that will work for a while and we intend to be moving in about two weeks. We are making big changes in 2021! https://www.instagram.com/p/CJdMA4Tj5NyANZzOz61GoqvPVzq6iky5r9P3Dk0/?igshid=118gvihax6lqi

Our family had plans to go see as many local Christmas light displays as we could. But we have ended up a little more busy than expected. We did get to go out twice though and had a lot of fun as usual. The first weekend we went to Muskogee to Honor Heights and then to the Castle. The boys layered up and brought blankets to ride in the back of the truck, which they loved. Then, another night we drove out to Woolaroc. Their display was pretty and had some fun things we hadn’t seen before like the lit up teepee and a man on horse back covered in lights. Maybe we can find a night before we leave to enjoy more of the displays. Either way, I love these memories. 🎄 https://www.instagram.com/p/CJK92HMDq4jk9UtLbmzF9i12uNTskB4nuDHzks0/?igshid=1gx05oy8mk9aj

One of the fun things about Brandon selling cars over the years has been when he has to deliver one out of state. Today, we delivered one to the Dallas area and then ate at this restaurant that wasn’t especially cool, but had good food. The wow factor was in the women’s restroom. Album covers on the ceiling and a real disco ball to enjoy while you pee. So, ya, I needed video evidence. Don’t worry, no one else was in there. 💃🕺 (at Aspen Creek) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJDOOgNDf7QZHZOc2uVahv4ynOCsj5F2kmOTUQ0/?igshid=551je0sjzlb

I want to believe in love, but I just can't. I want someone to prove me wrong.

You don’t have to believe me, but it is out there. I have it with my husband. He’s my best friend. We are 28 nd 29 years old and have been together for 11 years. We only dated for a year and got married on our first date anniversary. Anyway, those things don’t really matter, I’m just bringing them up because it surprises some people that we got married so young and we are still happily together. The thing that we both fund out is that love will not be what or where you expect it to be. It is so much about communication, honesty, and sacrifice. Men and women are so different but equally wonderful and amazing. There is no room for pride or selfishness in a relationship. You really have to care about the other person’s needs no matter how different they are from your own. It’s about making it work, not just a feeling. It’s just not what people expect it to be. Anyway, to anyone reading this, you can wish for what writers dream up for romantic comedies or you can take the word of someone with an actually successful marriage.

So, recently I got an email that my tumblr turned 12! I can’t believe it’s been that long. Fast forward a couple weeks and I redownloaded the app because I was thinking about #NonePizzaLeftBeef.

I’m scrolling and I find this post from ages ago about true love. At the point that I shared this I had been marred to Brandon for 11 years. Well, if you need further proof of true love existing, here it is. In 2021, we will be celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary! Which is not very common for people in our generation.

I love Brandon every bit as much if not more than when we married. There is a deep connection or bond that would leave me feeling bewildered if I didn’t have him. He’s still my favorite person to be around. We are actually about to embark on a huge life change that neither of us have experienced. We will be moving to a whole new state, which is a big deal for us. It’s scary and exciting but we know we will be okay because we have each other.

I found a good man to spend my days with. We take care of each other and we are happy. I highly recommend marrying your best friend.

So, I decided a while back that I wanted to read Gone With The Wind. It’s always been one of my favorite movies. Even when I was a little girl, I couldn’t even say how old I was the first time I watched. Anytime it was on tv it felt like a major event, like a holiday. The whole thing just felt epic growing up and still does. As a young girl, the biggest take away for me was the dresses (I think we all know how I feel about dressing up now) and the importance of Tara (home). The pull, love, and conflict in Scarlett’s heart to her home is not hard for a child to relate to. As a teenager, more about the story began to resonate with me. I began to love the history that was involved. And still the costumes, or course. Then, there was Scarlett’s pining away for Ashley. I never saw the appeal of the actor that played Ashley, but I did understand having feelings for a boy(s) and them not feeling the same way. That’s just Teenage Girl 101. At the end, she realizes he wasn’t right for her all along anyway. Which is also a good lesson, it’s just too bad it took her that long to figure it out. It does make for a great story, though. As an adult, I’m still in love with all of it. I have owned the VHS, and still watch my DVD copy. Now that I’m much more of a reader than I was as a young person, I thought that reading the book would be a perfect idea. Isn’t the book always better than the movie anyway? The answer is yes! It will take me forever to finish reading it because it’s super long but I don’t care. That just means I get to enjoy it longer. So far, I love it. Yes, even more than the movie. There’s just all that much more depth and detail to make it more satisfying. It’s like eating a rich dessert. Anyway, I’m reading my Granny’s copy of the book. (Again, y’all know I love vintage and retro items.) I think this copy was printed in the sixties. That kind of makes it extra special for me. I have no grand conclusion or takeaway from all of this. I’m just a gal that’s loved a story her whole life. It’s crazy cold outside and I have no other obligations today other than feeding my kids and, eventually, making them go to bed. So, I jus https://www.instagram.com/p/BumaAkancXR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m6dgy8loa6f6

These two are so excited about snow! Our area hasn’t had enough snow to play in since they were toddlers so this is quite a treat! ☃️❄️🌨 https://www.instagram.com/p/BujuMDdnLHo/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=id8auw1ovwwx

Another wild night at the Fisher residence full of records, coloring, and Feisty Cherry Coke. 🏡🎶🖍🍒✌️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Buh2OddHGji/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=phud2s402rmh

I created a little drama here with Addy. I think we both wish we were out of the house right now. She probably wants to hunt small things. I want to hunt for old things and new places, lol! Anyway, the kids have all been sick for the last week two weeks and I’m getting over it too. I really hope that cleaning all the highly touched surfaces in the house will help along with letting some fresh air in with all this wind. I am glad to see sunshine coming through the windows instead of gray skies. I should have kept the Christmas tree up longer to keep things a little more jolly around here, lol! #CatsOfInstagram #AddyAdventures #CatDrama https://www.instagram.com/p/BuPcRUzn46E/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1da4t2lew31x4

This would be my favorite store to shop at. “I’ll be back! I have to go to the store to pick up a couple kitties.” ♥️♥️♥️

You just wouldn’t even believe how lovely this bouquet smells! The flowers are gorgeous, dear. Thank you for being my Valentine.♥️♥️♥️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt3_tqQHJOf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=168l2logty55u

So, ya’ll know I have this fascination with pink hair. I’ve had it done with a stylist a few times over the years. Well, I wanted to try doing it myself just to see what would happen. I’m pleased with how it turned out. It’s very temporary, might not even last a week according to the box. Which I’m totally fine with. What I do really like is now I know if I have the odd color itch I can spend $10 and an hour doing this and be satisfied with the fix. Within a short amount of days I can go back to my normal hair. Woo! 👩🏻‍🎤👩🏻‍🎤👩🏻‍🎤 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt1ggO5ntAs/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=w18yel6iz126

I illustrated this coyote for Heirloom Rustic Ales a few years ago, and it’s so cool to see it on cans!

I collect fox things and someone brought me a coaster with this on it. I love it, it’s so pretty! 🦊♥️

Have you tried Posole before? I tried it for the first time in DC and then have made it twice at home. This low carb recipes that I make at home is crazy easy and big on flavor. Anyway, I didn’t share it the first time because I ate it too quickly, it’s that good! I’m going to share the recipe with you and I want you to try it and then we can gush about how good it is, okay? Okay! 👍 https://www.instagram.com/p/BtFKSbzHbwN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=e8jdkcpue6v7
