Its official I stink at blogging!
I try so hard to get motivated to update then my laziness takes over!
This month has flown by!!
Heres the month of July update..
July 4th weekend..the besties came down for a visit, we had a date night at the cheesecake factory yum :), then pool side all day saturday! It was nice to catch up and just relax! Thanks for visiting girls! Love yall
The next weekend we were in Amarillo for Casey and Katies wedding (I have such cute pictures, but somehow in my move my camera cord grew legs and walked away..darn) Congrats to those guys! Long drive!!!! but worth every minute to see such a great couple become one! Going to weddings in so special to me..it brings back feelings from our wedding and great memories oh how I love my hubby! He is so special!
We drove back from Amarillo and Jimmy left for Milwaukee that Friday morning. It was just me and Charlie for a week :( I missed Jimmy but he had a great time in Milwaukee with Northwestern learning a ton about his business and getting energised!
This past weekend was spent hanging out with Jimmys brother who is on leave right now from the Navy. He leaves in two weeks and will be gone for a year! So time spent with him right now is precious! We took him to eat at "Lupe Tortillas" YUM! and then went to see "The Proposal" cute movie, barbequed on saturday, then church on Sunday(which was fabulous! God is working wonders in Jimmy and I.. and it is amazing!
Ok this brings you up to date with the Siegels! Tune in next month for a new post :) Sorry

Road Trip!?

Lesson learned...

so...I am regretting waiting to purchase tickets to amarillo so late...now they are outrageous!

Looks like Jimmy and I will be roadtripping it next weekend to Amarillo Tx!! 10 hours ekkkk...
please pray for me as I can not stand to be in a car that long!

I shouldnt have waited for a Southwest DING that NEVER came up :( :(

Weekend with the Siegels!

Friday:

We worked late which stinks for a Friday because no one works on Fridays in our office. I was at the office till 5:30 waiting on Jimmy to come and pick me up after his meetings....(we are down to one car right now(working on getting a new tire for the Honda we had an unfix able flat :( ) so by the time he came to pick me up we were starving! so off to a cheap date night...CiCi's and home to cuddle up on the couch and watch a movie!

Saturday:

we slept late of course! quite normal for us :)

Jimmy worked for a little bit..while I enjoyed my guilty pleasure of reality TV...the desperate housewives of Georgia was on all afternoon!

Jimmy and I then headed over to a friends house to babysit! When we got in the car this is what our temp. was...

Houston = HOTT!

Yes Jimmy and I watched 10 kids Saturday night...quite entertaining! and quite exhausting!

Sunday:
Church! (good sermon...ill post my notes on it tomorrow it really touched Jimmy and I)

then home to clean house! We cranked up the music! I tackled the bathrooms while Jimmy cleaned the kitchen! yes I love that I have a husband who will help me clean! Like I have said before I am not the best housewife and a little motivation/help from the hubby is nice!
we have a new addition to the Siegel house this week..we are dog sitting...are Charlie is loving having a friend to play with.. here they are FINALLY sleeping..they played/fought for 2 hours straight!

A Fresh Start!

Its crazy to think I havent posted since last year... ekk... sorry to my many readers wondering what in the world we have been up to...although I am pretty sure this consist of about 3 people!

But today as I got caught up on the many blogs I secretly follow ;) I got inspired to be more of an active blogger!So this is what I am going to attempt to do! So I am going to start all over starting today...
My blog needs a facelift!

"Erin" my "Rae" of sunshine "Anderson"

My lil sis informed me the other day that my blog was cheesy.... aka she was pretty much making fun of me for the things I write in here.

But hey!...I rarely write in it...I am pretty sure I could count on both hands the number of people who read my blog...and this blog is more of a way to document the journey of Jimmy & Leslie. A way to remember and look back as the years go on. A way to remember our firsts! "Our 1st Christmas" "Our 1st Anniversary" ect.

I will work on the cheesiness Erin!

Jimmy is def. the better writer...maybe he will write a blog or two? doubtful!
So Erin you might just be stuck with my cheesiness, but you know you love it!

Whos the Cheesy one now?!?

Our 2nd Christmas!

We Celebrated Christmas with each other early(like always...we can never keep secrets from each other and are usually to excited to hide our gifts from each other)
So we ate left over pizza, opened presents, and went to see "Yes Man"....
Here are some pictures of our Chirstmas... I got Jimmy an ipod and some slippers! and he got me cowboy boots! (excuse the picture of me...it looks as if I have no neck haha)

Celebrating our One Year! cont.

Here are a few pictures from our anniversary.... December 1st

We celebrating by going to Mexico the week before, but on our actual anniversary we spent the night together cooking & watching our wedding video! Such a fun night! Jimmy helped with the cooking so I had to take pictures!(Jimmy cooking is rare! and I mean very very rare) Charlie helped with the dishes!
