<span style="font-size: x-small;">They are Eastern Box Turtles.</span><br />
<div>
<b><span style="font-size: x-small;">Here are some Turtle facts! :</span></b></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">1) Box turtles have a homing instinct which causes them to return to the place of their birth. If they are moved from one habitat to another, they will spend the rest of their lives trying to go back to their original habitat. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">2) A box turtle’s shell is not completely hardened until it is 7 years old.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">3) The age of a box turtle can be approximated by counting the rings on the scutes, which are located on the top of the shell. After about 20 years, the growth rings will start to disappear, making it difficult to get an accurate estimate on age. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">4) The Eastern Box Turtle was named Tennessee’s official state reptile in 1995.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">My my my, in the midst of the madness we call life, we almost forgot about our blog! Shame I tell you! Shame! But all is good now because here we are with tons of updates!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">1) <u>Job-age</u></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> ~ Josh has moved from the Movie Theater to a more suiting job at O'Reilly's. Now he can tinker and play with cars all day and talk about them to random strangers! It's also a plus because I don't have to try to understand what he;s saying since he'll have others to talk to yay <3</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> ~ I am still at Hardees (whomp). But I applied to a daycare since I love babys and children so much, and I am waiting on a call. They said my application looked promising, so here's hoping!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> ~ This weekend my father goes out of town for a wedding in California (lucky duck), so I will be house sitting and dog sitting and horse sitting.

We went to a love and respect conference this weekend and i learned quiet a bit. I learned that women see in pink with their pink glasses, hearing aids and megaphone, men in blue. It is hard for us to see the other persons color but, I'm gonna try and show more patients and understand that when she is mad she is not try to be disrespectful she just feels unloved.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4246541926949205440.post-63034483321368606432012-04-24T11:49:00.000-07:002012-04-24T12:03:39.883-07:00Bathroom Redo<br />

Before the little brown cabinet and the sink area was crammed with hairspray, makeup, brushes, and everything else. And My daily chore is to clean the bathroom so it got very annoying very quick. So I dug in my closet and found something I thought would work perfectly.<br /><br />And it did!</div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">We finally meet Mr.ArtTeacher and they converse about how things have changed and about me and so on and so forth.

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">For being so very young, our relationship is pretty grand.<br />I have had some folks ask how we do it.<br />In all honesty I don't know.<br />But I'll try.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">One day while rummaging (I guess) through his attic, Josh came across his grandmothers old typewriter. Soon I was getting cute little notes in my mail box in old school writing. And me being the old school girl I am, I loved it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">I have a typewriter but the ribbon is not so well, so until I figure it out, I hand-write him back. That is unless I'm at his house and I sneak onto his and write him one really quick.</span></div>

He's also been known to give me a bag of Skittles from time to time (they are the cure all). The latest gifts were my typewriter (<3) and actual 1950's dress patterns. I do not have a job at this time, so it's hard for me to buy him gifts but I am (if I do say so) pretty creative, so most of gifts to him include drawings and such.<br /><u>It's all in the meaning behind it.</u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">This tradition was actually started with me and my mother. It really helps get things off your chest. Usually involved comfort food and a box of tissues. The idea is to tell the person what you want to get off of your chest, but they aren't allowed to yell or get overly upset. You confess something you did or didn't do or an idea you have they might not like. Or something that is bothering you. In my experience no matter how bad the 'confession' was, there's always <u>hugs</u> at the end.</span></div>

I also dabbled up a office layout:<br />

I wanted two desks because, well, Barney didn't teach me to share very well :) I wanted to keep it simple so that if one of us are working on something then we wont be distracted by crazyness going on in the room.</div>

I like the island/breakfast bar a lot. But I'm also obsessed with cabinets and shelves and drawers, so I felt this was a nice look. I probably will give it more of an older feel, not so up-to-date since the house all together will look older. Overall I want the kitchen to feel that my grandmother's, grandmother's, grandmother's, great-grandmother's mother had been there. </div>

See? Not overwhelming pink-ish-ness. Just slight touches here and there. I'll probably have pink decorative plates and some other accents around.</div>

So I was mozy-ing around online and came across this photo.<br />

I fell in love right away and have decided that I will build (one day) a home just like it! Maybe just a little more spruced up. So here is the layout I found and edited some:<br />

The office will be used for well. . . office stuff :) I plan on a little library wall in the office full of books. Maybe two desks, one for me, one for Josh, so we wont have to wait on one another. I do know though that I only want computers in this room. Yes, even laptops. I feel technology really does take over ones life. And I don't want it to control mine :)<br />
~*~<br />
Josh and I both do photography, and although I'm a digital type of girl, Josh loves film, so I figured throwing in a Dark Room wouldn't hurt. It can be his "man cave" for the time being.<br />
~*~<br />
We both also enjoy Arts and Crafts. Well . . . he likes to draw and I like doing everything else! I was introduced to DIY Projects by my mother who is in-love with watching other people do them, haha. I'm sure if she had more time to spare she'd be making all kinds of stuff. But I figured, why can't I?<br />
~*~<br />
Around the rest of the home I plan to decorate with old car parts and our photography. Pretty cool eh?<br />
~*~<br />
Oh and my kitchen will be <span style="color: magenta;"><u><b>Pink</b></u></span>!<br />
<br />
I know this dream probably wont happen for years to come, but its never to early to start planning!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4246541926949205440.post-3645196088966707792012-03-07T10:27:00.001-08:002012-03-07T10:30:51.307-08:00In The Beginning<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">Amber never told Joshua she liked him, simply because she thought he was smarter then her, and he wouldn't want a dumb blonde. So she never really said anything. He thought she was too popular for him. They simply enjoyed the fact that they were friends. For the most part anyways. At the 8th grade dance, Amber had a date already. But Josh's bailed on him. Kayleigh and another girl in class danced with him all night. And Amber was so sad that other girls (one being my best-friend) was grinding on him.<br />But 8th grade ended and high school popped up. She went to the local public high school, while Josh, being the smarty-pants he is, was accepted into the governor's school. Of course facebook didn't exists then. So they lost touch. The end of their 9th grade year Amber's father packed her up to move to the middle of nowhere on a 54 acre farm. She got engaged her senior year, but it fell through. Josh had found a girl his ninth grade year and they stayed together through out high school but broke up the summer after.<br />After they graduated Amber moved back to her hometown with her mother. She hadn't heard from Josh, or really anyone in 4 years and she felt lonely. Soon though she was reconnecting with old friends and doing good. But one day, a random number texted her phone. The person was saying how much they loved her photography. She was flattered. They gave her hints to who they were:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">- I'm close to you, but not close enough to know who you are now.<br />- I have brown hair.<br />- I wear contacts now.<br />- We sat beside each-other in Mr.Wheats class.<br /><br />It was him! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">They reconnected and have been inseparable ever since.</span><br />
