Things That I Love 12

A Letter About Marriage From My Dad

My parents have been married for over 40 years.

And not a lukewarm relationship- people who don’t know them often ask if they are newlyweds due to the way that act towards each other

To my Favorite,

People always ask your Mom and I what is our secret to such a strong, loving marriage when they watch the way we love and interact with each other, and then find out later that we have been married for over 40 years.  … Keep Reading!!!

Confession Friday- The Hunger Games

I am obsessed with The Hunger Games

I was at the book store today and I saw it on a stand that said “teen fiction.”  Not my favorite literary term.  I cringed when I saw the label because I am currently reading the series.

I was up until 2:30am this morning reading Hunger Games. It is the crack cocaine of books. My husband had to drag me out of my hypothermic bath I had been sitting in for … Keep Reading!!!

Happy Birthday To Me!

I’m taking the day off to celebrate my birthday with my boys!

Birthdays make commoners celebrities for a day. I am taking this role seriously.

Sunglasses must be worn indoors and at night.

I also gave Brian my requirements for our bathroom My dressing room:

  1. All White! If I see an eggshell washcloth or a vanilla hued rose there will be hell to pay
  2. With the exception of the red carpet that I must always be standing on
  3. My nose

Our Wedding

Happy Anniversary Brian! I love you!

Brian and I got married on Superbowl Sunday- kind of.

Our ceremony was that day, we eloped a few months earlier.

Coincidentally, the game was Giants vs. Patriots

We had our ceremony and reception at my grandmother’s house.

We kept it small (75 people)

I actually was opposed to a ceremony and reception. It was Brian that really wanted one.

In the end I am happy we had one!

We chose February 3rd because … Keep Reading!!!

Big Armenian Christmas Eve

I was so excited to spend Christmas with my family!

I knew the boys would be excited to see their cousins

On Christmas Eve we attended a candelight service at our home church.

Then we went and had some Philly Cheesesteaks where Samuel got into Grandma’s lipstick!

Christmas Eve night we always have a family party:

My cousin Nicole brought alligator for any brave soul willing to try it…Brian never turns down a meal:

 

We made it home before … Keep Reading!!!

Santa For Families That Don’t “Do” Santa

I think Santa is a lot of fun….so do my kids.

We all know he isn’t real.

I’ve come to learn there are different Santa familes:

Family 1: Hardcore Santa-ers. Go big or go home. I even think the adults may believe in him.

Family 2: The Anti-Santa-ers. The jolly rosie-cheeked man is about as accepted in this house as a burglar.

Family 3: Some may say lukewarm Santa-ers? Keeping with the secular tradition of Santa with the children fully … Keep Reading!!!
