Call me supersticious (sp?) But this is my game day jewelry.... of which I wear when MSU plays either football or bball... hey every little bit helps (and mind you, this is only the jewelry... this does not include the clothing i wear... or the make up (green eye shadow) or the tatoo I have!!! Hahaha... overboard? yes... but hey, at least I am passionate about something!!!! So anyway tonight MSU has a big game against Wisconsin AT Wisconsin. MSU #15, versus Wisconsin #9. It's on at 6 (California Time) or 9 Pretty much every where else! Root on the Spartans! GO STATE! :)

Was cleaning the house today... and added a little more creativity to the downstairs..... (The green m & m's, of which I showed you around Valentines Day.... well I bought like 10 HUGE bags of them the day after Valentine's on sale.... cuz you ALWAYS need Green m & m's....) Well anyway, Tracy had gotten me 3 fake green roses, and I needed somewhere to put them... What better way, then a decorative glass filled with green m & m's that you can snack on?!?! with three green roses stemming out!!!!! Anyway, that's my little interior decorating for the week!!!! hahahaha. It makes the living room more.... how do you say.... Spartany!!!! oh yeah, and by the way, STATE won their bball game today!!!! Yeah! Go Spartans!

Monday February 18, 2008 PRESIDENTS DAY


We had Presidents day off... obviously, and while I was coaching.... Brady was off doing our taxes.... Gotta love it... It is nice getting it done nice and early... and whats even nicer is Brady being able to do it on his own... while I am off coaching, so all I have to do is sign the things!!!!

Sunday, February 17, 2008

By the way....

I apologize I have been slacking with posting my pics of the day.... between starting student teaching and still coaching I am uber busy... i am lucky that I even take a pic of the day.... and then on the weekends I post.... but I want you all to hold me to it... this week, and for the rest of the year, I will post a picture each and every day, and if I don't.... feel free to tell me all about it by commenting.... I WILL DO A BETTER JOB FROM HERE ON OUT!

Thursday February 14, 2008 (Valentines)


I will let you all in on a little story... Brady comes home at around 8:00 at night with a victorias secret bag... and I'm thinking.... oh no.... what did he buy? Did he buy something that I will MAYBE wear once for a few minutes and then shove in a drawer with all the other ones like it and never look at it again..... and as I open his gift.... it was fabulous he had bought me a green bra (my size!!!) and five pairs of matching underwear!!! It was perfect, he said that he wanted to buy something for me that I could actually use!!!! So anyway, I hope all of you were pleasantly surprised with your Valentines!!!! HAPPY VALENTINES TO ALL!

Wednesday February 13, 2008

Super Sunday
Go Giants!!!!
We went over to Brady's dads to watch the Super Bowl... rooting on the Giants all the way (rooting for fellow Spartan Plaxico Burress and the underdog team). Here is a shot of Brady and Katie getting into the game!!! I am not a huge NFL fan, but it was a great game and very entertaining.
