Ed.....Seriously???

Ok....once again I ask myself why oh why do I get sucked into watching the Bachelorette?? It NEVER EVER turns out the way I hoped it would.

Jillian ended up picking Ed (the Microsoft Engineer that left the show on his own to go back to his job....and not to mention it is speculated he has a girlfriend in the learch!) who in my opinion is sooooo not for her. And just to name a few reasons why, in my opinion of course, he is the wrong pick:

1.) NERD!!
2.) In the last rose ceremony he dressed like the ice cream man
3.) Does he seriously think the "Larry Bird Green Shorts" are attractive??
4.) He was too nervous and put on the spot to be romantic with her
5.) Once again....he has a girlfriend back home waiting....
6.) Somebody needs to teach that dude about "man scaping"

Ok, maybe those are VERY shallow reasons I think she should have not picked him...but its my opinion and in my "professional bachelorette" opinion, Kiptyn was the one for her. He was awesome!!! But, of course, it was her decision and in the end she will realize that I was right! LOL :)

Well, I hope she is happy with Ed. (did I mention he has a girlfriend back home??) And may all her dreams come true. Maybe I should follow in my sister Jennifer's footsteps and ban the Bachelor and Bachelorette shows out of my TV time. Someday I will learn. Hope all is well with everyone!!! XOXOXO

We Can Hardly Wait!!!

Hello again! We are soooo excited because Ian's kids are going to be here in a week. We have been talking about them coming to Michigan for quite sometime now, and finally it is fast approaching. We will have the pleaseure of Bryony and Sean for one week and having Conor (or as I call him "Conor Bug") for 2 weeks. We have alot planned and are looking so forward to them being here.

We also busy planning our wedding ceremony in Mexico. Trying to get invites, plans and all the fun stuff organized and ready for the big day. And of course getting ALOT of "us" time now that he is here for a while. Lucky ME!!

Shelbey is doing great...she just got her 10th grade schedule in the mail for her upcoming school year. Yep, that's right....10th GRADE! My goodness, I just cannot believe it. And that's all I have to say about that.

We also had some pics taken a few weeks ago. I have posted just a few to share with all of you. These pictures were taken by a guy that does this for fun and I could not believe how awesome they turned out and not to mention he made us look fabulous after we had such a LOOOONG weekend! Thanks Brad!!! He will also be taking some shots when the kids are all here, so stay tuned for those pics to be posted soon!

Hope all is going great for all of you out there....thats all for now! XOXOXO

Summer Fun

Hello to you all!! It is officially summer time and Ian is FINALLY here for longer than he has ever been!! YEAH ME!!! And YEAH US!! We are very excited to spend longer than a week together and I think Ian is excited to put his clothes away long enough to collect a little dust. We have already had lots to do and lots to do ahead. It is wonderful having him here and Shelbey kinda likes it too!! :)

I have attached some pics of a few things we have already done....a wedding reception, Ian strumming some tunes at Duffy's and some random shots. Hope all is well with everyone out there and you are enjoying the summer time. I know we are!! Take care...xoxoxo.
