Decisions

I just wanted to share this quote. We are continuously making decisions. They never stop. This has been weighing on my mind quite a bit lately.

It is our choice what we do with our time. It is a choice to take the time to do the things that God asks of us each day. We choose to be productive with our time. We choose not to be productive with our time.

 It is a choice to allow God into our lives. I know that when we make our decisions with a prayer in our hearts that we will be so much happier. He will guide us in the right direction.

My Day :)

I have had a great day today! So I thought I would share the different things that transpired :)

Me and my friend had plans to go to seven peaks today, but those fell through, but we ended up hanging out together a little later in the afternoon. I went to her apartment to chill for a little while and we went to Sammy's and got little banana cream pie shakes. That was my first time at Sammy's, and I was impressed. It was a cute little atmosphere and it was a delicious shake. When we finished our shakes we went to the mall to look around. Of course we stopped at the Downeast store. It is my fave. Alex got a skirt and I got a cute little shirt. You can't not buy something when you go to the mall...;)

After chilling at the mall for awhile we went to quite possibly the best restaurant, Zupas. I have been converted. It's one of those places like Costa Vida/Cafe Rio, where it is higher quality food than fast food, but it's not like a fancy sit down place. Fun atmosphere and good sustenance.

After we filled our bellies we saw Man of Steel. I am impressed with that movie. I was a little apprehensive about it when I first heard about it because there are so many different Superman movies. But this was good! The best Superman movie I've seen. Not to mention that the main actor is EXTREMELY attractive. I mean seriously. He makes Thor and Captain America seem not so attractive. Just sayin.

That was a fun evening that I had with my bestie. She's great.

When I got home I just chilled on my computer for awhile and am now in my family room watching The Office. I am putting off going to bed because I don't want to go through the process of getting ready for bed. Worst part of the day besides getting ready for the day...haha.

Anyways, I had this text conversation with my mom just barely and I want to share.

I asked where the sunscreen was and she told me and this is where it begins:

Me: "Thanks yo."

Mom: "Welcome."

Me: "Fo shizzle."

Mom: "To the hizzy."

Me: "Off the chizzain."

Mom: "Straightizzle to dizzle landizzle."

Me: "Nice."

Mom: "Yup. Izzle."

Me: "Krizzazzle."

Mom: (talking about me going to seven peaks tomorrow) "Have fun swizzlin on the slidizzles tomizzle."

Me: "You know I wizzle."

Mom: "Coozle."

Me. "Lovez"

Mom: "Dittozzle"

And you're jealous. I've got the coolest mom ever. 

Goodnight world!

50th Wedding Anniversary

Tonight I had the pleasure of attending a celebration for my Grandma and Grandpa Liddle's 50th wedding anniversary. All of my aunts and uncles got together and planned a recreation of their wedding reception.

The wedding dress was on display, and they even got someone to recreate the cake. I was very impressed.(that's the original cake topper)

There was a program after we ate dinner with children and grandchildren singing and reading poetry and what not. I was able to sing Lucky by Jason Mraz with my fellow cousins. It was fun.

At the end of the program there was a video of my grandparents where they talked about how they met and started dating. It was so sweet. There was even some video footage of their wedding day. It was great.

After everything ended and we cleaned everything up we turned on some dancin music and danced with the cousins. It was such a fun time. I love my cousins so much. Every single time we get together we have a good time.

It was a very fun evening. I am so blessed to be surrounded by great family. I am grateful for my grandparents example. I want to have a marriage as long and healthy as theirs :)

A Liddle Update

It's been awhile since I've blogged. I don't know why, because my life has been full of so much fun lately! The summer weather has been amazing. I love being in the sun with every chance I get. I love enjoying the little moments where I can just sit outside for a little bit and relax while listening to music. And I get some nice time to spend with my little dog out there. You can't beat that! haha

I have also been putting in a lot of hours at work. I am trying to get as many hours as I possibly can while I still am available. I start school again on July 10th and at that time my availability will be cut in half. I have really enjoyed going in to work lately. I kind of had a phase where I didn't really enjoy it, but man, I love my job. I just get to work with great people. I feel bad for the people who do not get to work with the peeps that I do, because they are great. Awesome friends. It's definitely a family bond :)

And my bff FINALLY came back from visiting her fam in Georgia. I love this chica. I am very excited to start doing stuff with her again. And the 2 shifts we've worked together since her return have been the best shifts ever :)

Also, my dad has returned from his Warrant Officer school in Alabama. He was gone for what felt like forever, but now he's back. He's one step closer to being Chief Liddle. He has one more school that he leaves for in July and then he's official! I am so proud of him. I have always admired my dad for being such a hard worker. He has definitely always been a positive example and influence in my life. It's great having him back for awhile.

My sister is at Girls Camp this week, so whenever I'm not at work I am at home with just my parents. It's definitely weird sometimes. I love my parents. But I miss my sister for sure. She plays Zelda with me and gives me hints. I played it last night and got nightmares. No lie. I need her when I play haha.

I am missing my bro now more than ever! He is so so happy in Japan though. Reading his last email, I have noticed a HUGE change in him. He is so motivated and is doing so much good!! I am very happy that he is happy. But I still miss the guy.

So as you can tell life is going great! I am happy with how things are going right now :)
