Do Not Touch...

Every time I walk into this store I tell my self DO NOT TOUCH and then I wont buy!
No It is not the grocery store...but Papyrus!

You may or may not have received a card from me from Papyrus, but they are my OBSESSION!! I have found myself buying such random cards just in case it ever happens. Like a congratulations on your new job as a tiger handler!! You never know!!


I had to go to New Jersey for work for the day yesterday and it was such a crazy 24 hours! My flight was super delayed last night and I just wanted to get home, I was walking around the airport in heels (which already makes me cranky!) and I just wanted to be home in bed! Anyways as I was mopping to the terminal i saw it there it was in bright lights and I was like a zombie walking in.

I am not lying when I say this! I swear the guy working the counter said wow you just walked in here so happy, and I laughed and said yes I really like your store.

Need a cute card for something, check it out! Be very careful though!! It adds up very quickly :)

Summer Lovin...

Hello There,
I hope everyone had an amazing weekend! I had a great weekend and really enjoyed myself. I am not too excited to go back to work tomorrow but the good news I will be home just updating my database!

I was trying to think tonight what I should write about and it is something my good friend Peeps (HOPE) started.
It was my birthday weekend and I was at a brunch with a girlfriend, and some lady walked up to us and asked us if we were Katherine and Kara and we said yes very confused. She then said well Hope wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday and ordered you waffles and orange juice. It was such an amazing surprise. I really didn't know what to say! It was such a great idea and from that day I have been passing on the gesture. When you can not be somewhere it is so fun to deliver food to a table or a door. I ordered bagels this morning for my dad from his favorite cafe and had them delivered at 7AM!!! He wakes up really early :) I am not sure who was happier him or I, but I really enjoyed surprising him with breakfast!

Everyone should try it one day, it totally made me the happiest girl ever! I love her thoughtfulness and always try to mimic her amazing qualities. Its really hard to do because she is quite amazing but I just loved the thoughtfulness of the waffles.

I have to say I have such an amazing life its crazy!!!! I wake up every morning so happy and just am so thankful for all the wonderful people in my life. It makes my life so full of happiness.

Hope everyone has a great Sunday! Harry Potters on tonight and I love watching that in bed!!! Ok so I love watching ANY movie in bed, but especially Harry Potter!!

Little tiny obsession..

So as many of you may or may not know, I have an obsession with a few things.

1. I LOVE looking at random blogs/websites
2. Etsy
3. Stationary or cards

So I came across this website:

I would highly recommend taking a look. I really love it, she has great ideas and also great advertisers (who are on etsy :)) to the right.

Enjoy!

One Week....



OF AMAZINGNESS! I had such an amazing time it was crazy! This is going to be a long post, but here we go.
First we almost missed the boat, we didn't realize we had to be there two hours before the boat left! We literally made it with 10 minutes to spare. No joke! Ty and I literally said for like an hour, holy cow can you imagine if we would have missed the boat!?!?! I would have been PISSED!

The MOST IMPORTANT update is...... our table situation...


We had our own TABLE!!!! WHAT WHAT!?!?!?!
Let me tell you, I was a wreck! We immediately got on the boat and I was just about ready to go into the crew area and change the table settings on their main computer. Or march my way up to the captains booth and demand my own table! (captains booth? ok so im not a sailor...)
Do they know we have been living in different countries for 4 months!!!! I DO NOT want to talk to other people every night at dinner. I can do that when he goes back to Grenada in August! Tyler literally had to hold me back from jumping off the ship from anxiety of finding out about our table situation. You should have seen my face as they escorted us to table 120 I probably looked like I just wet my pants, but no we just were seated at our table.
So all is well and we had an amazing time at our table, we laughed SO much and I believe I actually ate my whole body weight in food. It was totally a site to see :)

So here are some of the highlights!
Big Bathroom, St. John's, Glass blowing show, female parts, quiet, books, Tyler :)
Ok have a great week and I love you all!

JUST KIDDING.. So here are some pictures and explanation of the above.

I was shocked by our room and bathroom! It was VERY nice, I could even do my makeup in the bathroom!! Tyler and I had a balcony and we spent a lot of time on it. Drinking, eating and I read EVERY morning on the balcony with a cup of coffee. It was so peaceful.
I think that was the thing I loved the most about the trip, there were so many moments of such peace and quiet.
My favorite moment of peace and quiet was when we went to St. Johns and went to a beach called Trunk Bay. It was the most beautiful place I think I have been. It was so quiet and there was hardly anyone there.
Here are some pictures of Trunk Bay!


IT WAS INCREDIBLE. There was a haze all day but it was so cool. It was almost like we were swimming in the ocean in the morning. Literally you couldn't even hear the other 15 people on the beach. (yes like 15! it was empty!!)
The glass blowing show was on the boat and probably something Tyler heard me say a million times, "i Can't wait to see the glass blowing show" It was pretty neat, I have to say!!
They let us participate.. Here is Tyler and i below creating a Glass sculpture of my face. Its very dangerous and extremely difficult but we were both naturals. They asked us to live on the boat and create glass for the rest of our lives. I explained though that I sometimes get seasick and we had to turn it down. They understood.. .....

The other stop was St. Marteen. It was also a great stop! It was neat it had a French side and a Deutsch side. We went to the French side because I like not shaving my armpits. JK... But we heard the beaches were great there as well. And they were. We were waited on hand and foot there it was so relaxing! I think I had 343 miami vices (virgin of course. they taste so much better) while I was on vacation. I think I had two on the beach that day. You can now probably guess we saw a few lady parts on the beach on the french side.
They were not very pretty, mostly older women who were very comfortable with no tops. I would have loved to see Tyler and my faces. Literally I thought I about choked on my virgin miami vice when the first topless lady sat up. I almost ran over and said oh my gosh thank god I caught your top! It fell off and I didn't want you to be embarrassed by everyone staring at your small wabbos! It was a bit shocking but we felt very European there and it was again a GORGEOUS beach!! If you are wondering, I kept my bathing suit on AT ALL TIMES! If you know me at all, you know I would NEVER do that! Tyler took his top off I was really embarrassed at first and like a million women paparazzi started taking his picture. I had to regulate the situation. I am not sure if it was because he was rolling on the beach while I was doing the single ladies dance next to him or if they just thought he was that hot. Either way it was a great time!!
I read ONE FULL book and half of another! It was so fun. I really don't get to read that much, so reading everyday was so fun!! The quiet everywhere with no phones and email was incredible. I highly recommend this to anyone who is about to pull their hair out and is becoming cross eyed due to technology. I swear I think I go cross eyed because i love being on the computer so much! So next time if you see me and I look a bit different you will now know why :)
Life has been SO AMAZING recently. Vacations, reading, eating great food, naps, little work! Its been incredible.... not to mention Ty.
Its so weird we talk about how its almost like he was never gone. We have so much fun together, I forgot how much I laugh at him or with him when he is here. He is 100% my best friend and I love love love having him home. He is literally like half of my heart and when he is not here it beats just a little differently. It has a little frown and sometimes whines to my other organs about how much she misses Tyler.

Tylers birthday is Thursday and drum roll please he is turning ......31!!! Can you believe it! Just kidding he is really 25, but I bet I scared someone :) Hi Mammaw!

Nothing too crazy coming up in June just lots of cuddling, laughing and my heart beating extremely fast and hard :)

I have to give a shout out to my little nurse friend Meg! I really love her and have gotten to know her a lot more since graduating. You see we live in the same town actually like 10 miles away but we have this long distance relationship, we text, email, talk on the phone and yes even sometimes videochat! Its spectacular but we are super overdue for a date and we really both can't wait because I laugh so much with her :) She was the one that reminded me I had to finish my paradise post...so there you have it Meg!!

I hope everyone has a great week! I have to hand over my computer now to Ty, who just happened to "offer" to read over my post before i post it. Hmmm.... is that a hint. Cakes(thats what he calls me) you spell like a four year old and your grammar is the worst I have ever seen, I will look it over so it doesn't look like I am dating a 4 year old and get taken to jail :)

Adios my friends!!
