Miss you all

Just wanted to say, that I miss you all very much. We should start planning a reunion for 2010. Any thoughts as to where? We could all even meet up in a new city like Seattle or somewhere in Montana! Thoughts??

Good read!

Hey ladies, I wanted to recommend a good book for you and & your hubbies. In our commmunity group we have been reading: Discovering Your Spouse's Spiritual Gifts. (By Don and Katie Fortune). If you've read Love Languages (which, I'm pretty sure we all read in like a 9th grade Bible study) its pretty similar to that, but more in depth. It defines your spiritual giftsas a "motivational gift", meaning what motivates you to serve and love others for God. It breaks in down into the following:
Compassionate, Perceiver, Teacher, Giver, Server, Exhorter, Administrator.
Each comes from Romans 12. Now, I'm sure you've taken like 30 of these types of personality/ministry tests before and I'll say I was a little jaded as well. But the purpose is also to use it to understand and minister to your spouse! So I think the focus is a bit clearer. Anways, its really helped me understand and appreciate David's quirks more, he's a server & I'm compassionate. The server chapter for David was like reading his maual for life, it was seriously eerie how well it described David. Makes the annoying things he does endearing almost. The book sells for like $7 on Ebay so check it out. I'd love to know all of yours ladies. Though I'd bet that we'd all rank first in Compassionate!

serial smoochers

Reading Jessa's post made me laugh about having an outlet for certain random things. So looking through my pictures the other day I realized all the pictures I have of people giving smoochies. And I found out...I'm a serial smoocher...no joke!

boob

i'm super glad i have an outlet for this.

MY BOOBS ARE HUGE RIGHT NOW. We're not talking your average PMS big, we're talking "Did I get implants and just forget about it" big. I'm almost positive I'm not pregnant, but I'll detail that at a later time. I was getting ready for bed last night, and Adam walked in and just started laughing because they are so stinking enormous. I'm not kidding, its amazing.

I guess my high school nickname will always haunt me...except now it can be BFEGBJ for Big Freaking Enormous Giant Booby Jessa.

*Can you tell I've never seen boobs this big up close and personal?

sweet summie bear

ugh.

(hah, just logged on and saw Katy's post from yesterday. good timing!)

Hickeys annoy me. When I see girls with hickeys, I roll my eyes (internally, of course) and think to myself, 'could he not keep his mouth off of you??' Ridiculous, I know...some of that prude, judgmental high school unmarried virgin left in me.

I've had two hickeys within the past month. awesome. Last night, spent from passion, hub looks at me and asks, 'is that a new hickey, or just leftover from the last one?' No, no, its new. The other one was two weeks ago. Thank you.
I don't even know how to hickey. No matter how many times I try, I just can't get it. (Funny image, huh? someone practicing hickeys. ha.)

I forgot about it when I was getting ready for work at 6am this morning. I don't even know if my eyeliner is even, never mind if my hickey is covered. I just remembered it, yeah, 5:30 at night...after we've seen 20 patients today. They are probably rolling their eyes (internally, of course) and asking that same stupid question. No, the answer is no, he can't keep his mouth off of me. So, there, you prude, judgmental high school unmarried virgins.

Sorry if that was too much...had to get it off my chest. Its been brewing for a good 20 minutes.

ladies ladies ladies

Must we all be to busy to write a simple blog? Come on ladies!!!!

What are your dreams??

Hey friends. ok, cheesy title right? But the other day I was looking at old pictures of all of us and thinking about our individual dreams when we were younger...and then thinking how life turned out. Its just amazing to think about how things have changed! How God has renewed each one of us. Would you do anything different? So I was wanting to know- what are your dreams now? Family? Travel? Careers?
I know we're all sort of standing at a precipice in life. Amy and Shelby have two year olds, Becky's about have her first baby (yaaaaay!!), Tara is traveling the world, Jessa is thinking about school...I feel like we're all about to change. Wouldn't it be cool to document what our dreams are now before they happen? Anyways, if you guys get time, would love to know.
Love you all
Katy

Can you tell we're slow at work? Anyway, this is the wordle I created for this blog. Yay! I love how family and friends are the most prominent in the bunch. You guys are my favorite family and I guess you can be my friends too. Love you ladies!

Mis perros!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So if you haven't heard David and I are getting two puppies in about two weeks! One is an American Pit Bull Terrier we named Roman. His mother was pregnant at a shelter and rescued by a kind lady. So we will be adopting Roman soon, he stays with his momma till he's 8 weeks old. (Oh and this has been David's dream dog) And then my dream dog- Ever since I was little and watched Disney's "Fox and the Hound" I too wanted to own a baby fox. So David and I decided to buy a Pembroke Welsh Corgi from a local breeder. The lady owns and shows horses and happens to be passionate about Corgi's as well. So we contacted her and she had a new litter, at the same age as Roman! So we picked out a little girl and have named her Lilly or Lil Fox. :)

We are getting both around Valentines Day weekend!!!!!!! I know its crazy but I wanted the puppies to grow up together and be friends, though it'll be insane for a couple of weeks with two 8 week old puppies....The pictures below are mostly of Roman because we can see him every couple of weeks because her owner lives close to us. Lily is in a town about three hours away from us so we haven't got to see her yet. So the pictures we have of her are from her breeder. She is the one on the far right on all the pictures below with a wide white stripe between her eyes. OH and we just got to see Roman a couple of days ago!!

Massage?!

So, I just wanted to keep you guys abreast of the happenings in Jessa World. I am seriously seriously considering going to school for massage therapy. I know, right? I'm probably applying this coming Tuesday. AH! Just wanted you guys to know. I'll let you know where it goes.
