boys

i have two boys.

a total of 5 brothers and one cool hubby.

most have blonde hair and blue eyes.

sometimes they wear pink.

most of the time they just like to have fun.

sometimes they like to challenge one another in a game or two.

they can be funny, serious, or a little crazy.

mainly, these boys (men) are my life. they make me smile when i'm sad, they make me laugh when i want to cry (sometimes ;)) and they take me the way i am. i'm blessed to have them in my life everyday. 

and i just so happened to get lucky enough to get pictures of some of them this weekend :)

This Song

...makes me want to run (in a good way, not like, run away ;)). 

I LOVE it. Listen to it and tell me it doesn't want to make you go outside and kick some booty in your running shoes. 

(don't forget to pause the song on my playlist at the bottom of the screen if you are trying to listen to this...I don't want you to go batty :))

p.s. Who else hopes this girl is chosen tonight???

I do! Yep, go Team Emily!

Date Night

Tonight I declare a 'date night'.  (Although, hopefully nothing like the movie ;))

I could go out with my little hottie about every night of my life. I don't really care what we do (although, I do like to get out of the house) I just like to be with him.  

We normally go to eat.  I always try to talk him into Mexican food (and I normally win ;) but he's just sweet like that). Otherwise, it's Italian or on a rare whim, Chinese. Then we tend to gravitate towards Target, for diapers or something that we need for the kiddos, or Barnes and Noble, where we go our own ways.  I normally walk around aimlessly until I find something interesting and he heads straight for the magazines where he looks at car magazines or some techie magazine. 

 Once in a great while we go to a movie instead of hitting up any stores.  And in the summer we do more outdoorsy activities, which I LOVE.  I love when we have the chance to just go on a walk or hang out outside and then pick up some ice cream or something later. Doesn't that sound great right now?! 

Sometimes we throw all caution to the wind and just do something totally different.  Actually, the hubs is really creative and knows that I like doing totally spontaneous things so he does a great job at coming up with fun and inexpensive date night ideas. 

So, tonight I declare a date night. I can't wait! So, tell me, what do you like to do on your date nights?
