Gamers Unite!

So last night we got the kids after work and boy did they act like they hadn't seen us for years, they were just talking a mile a minute all the way home from their mothers house. Once we got them inside and gave them their new pajamas (which they loved!) the first things out of their mouths were "Can we play Mario? Plleeasssee" Lol! They literally started begging to play, granted we didn't need the begging haha because we are both 100% ok with them becoming little gamers. That's really how Kenny and I met. I used to be an Assistant Manager at Gamestop and he was one of my favorite regulars, I loved it when he would stop by <3

Anyway, a little off track with that haha. Of course I've got pictures to share but they'll be at the end. They're starting to get more and more used to the idea of staying over here now which is awesome and it makes me super happy. I've got some laundry and things to do around the house today so they left a bit early but they'll be here all week <3 So no big! On a different note, Kenny and I have decided to make Wednesdays our 'date day' Probably not every Wednesday though, maybe every other one ... but since we work on the weekends the only time we have is during the weeks and since Thursdays are our family fun nights Wednesday just seemed like a good day. Anywho, it's probably going to consist of lunch and a movie or a trip to Savannah or maybe bowling. Too bad we don't have an arcade around here anymore lol... that would be perfect! Either way... I'm already excited about it! Tomorrow we're doing lunch and a movie. We're not entirely sure what we are going to see yet... either Neighbors or Maleficent. Probably Neighbors since it has an earlier viewing plus we haven't seen a comedy in awhile. I'm excited!

Oh! And before I log off here, yesterday a guy from work in receiving who we don't even really know that well came up to us while we were walking to the outbound office and said "Sorry if I'm asking personal stuff, but y'all are a couple right?" and of course we said yes, then he said "I see ya'll are always working together, and you even sit together at lunch... ya'll are together outside of work too?" and we said yes and he said "see that's amazing right there, ya'll got a bomb ass relationship, you need to keep her and you need to keep him because that's good right there." Then there was some laughter and thank yous lol and he went back to what he was doing. I'm glad everyone else can see how happy we are. Hell, before we even started dating right when I started working there people already assumed we were dating and some even thought we were married. <3 Even now, random people have complimented our chemistry and assume we are married (we just go along with it lol)

What can I say? We got a bomb ass relationship

^_^

Picture Time!

Their new pajamas that Kenny and I picked out together

Last night, shortly after we got home <3

they started begging me to play lol... that's my gaming face ^_^

This morning after breakfast

Lol this was during breakfast, they were all over their Daddy. You could tell they really missed him

And this is them being easily entertained by magnets :)

Great day, hope you all have!

Here comes the...

Haha, don't worry... I'm not engaged (yet) lol. Isn't that the best wedding cake topper ever lol I'm totally a beast at Halo, well I used to be like 5 years or so ago. Anywho, that's not the point in this entry...

Ever since I was a little girl I've always thought about how my wedding was supposed to be and how the dress was supposed to look. Over the years I've realized that weddings are pretty damn expensive especially if you try to achieve the "dream" wedding. I've had ideas planted in my head about how things should be, how things should look, whats supposed to happen and really... it's all a little unnecessary isn't it? I blame the media and well... society too I guess. What I'm getting at is why do the dresses have to be so extravagant? Why do they have to be so expensive? Why do you have to go above and beyond to "impress" your guests? And why do venues have to be so pricey too? 

A lot of people would reply "it's only going to happen once and it needs to be special so you should go all out!" Ok... one, these days hardly anyone gets married once especially the ones who marry young. Second, isn't it already special? I mean you're about to commit and spend the rest of your life with the love of your life, isn't that special enough? I'm not saying going all out is a bad thing... but I really don't think it's for me. Yes, I do have a pinterest board with all my "ooo this is pretty for wedding!" stuff... but in all seriousness, I think I'm going to go through and make it practical and suit it to what I really want and what a wedding should be. 

I'd be happy as can be having an intimate wedding in my parents backyard with close friends and family. Why not? I don't need to invite every single family member nor do I need to invite every person I've ever met. I don't need to try and impress anyone. It should just be me, my soul-mate, and our loved ones. I don't need a over expensive dress that I would never wear again. Why not get a fancy white dress and be able to re-wear it on special occasions like anniversary dates or whatever. I'm not looking for some over the top gathering so that I can post pictures on facebook and 'show off'. I mean... yes there will be pictures lol TONS of pictures but not to show off, just to share. 

Is any of this making sense? What I'm really getting at is, I would already be excited, happy, and on cloud 9 just by knowing I'd be spending the rest of my life with the man I love... no matter how it happened, how much money was spent, or who all was there, that would be the only thing that would matter to me. Oh wait! I'd also like to point something out lol. I know above I said "hardly anyone gets married once"  Well just to let readers know... this woman would only get married once lol. I'm 27, I've got enough history to know what I want and don't want when I get married I know it will last. You may think I'm crazy for being so confident... but I don't give a damn lol.
