Day 3 - Our Parents

The Cook(e)'s! Yes, I thought it looked a little strange when I was working on all of the programs, invitations, etc.! Here are my parents, Danny & Susan:

And Patrick's parents, Jerry & Chiquieta:

We have wonderful parents that love us both very much! We are very thankful for all of them!

Day 2 - Crush

So, who is my crush? Well, as with most people, this person changes as you grow up. When I was young, my celebrity crush was JMM - John Michael Montgomery. I even made him a part of a school project! (Of which I made a 208/200!...Yes, maybe I was a little of an over-achiever when I was younger!)

Just look at those dimples! So, now that I'm movin' close to 30...UGH! :)...my crush has definitely changed! Actually, I really don't have a crush right now. I am perfectly happy with my wonderful husband! Now, do I think that some guys are VERY good looking, well of course! I am a living breathing woman! Are there random guys that I see that I think "if Patrick looks that good at ____ age, I will be one lucky woman!"? Absolutely! But, we'll leave it at my elementary/middle school celebrity crush!

How about this!? I'm 2 for 2 for blogging days! I may stick to just the weekdays, though. If we go out of town, I may not be able to get to a computer and/or internet.

Happy Friday everyone!

Day 1

My best friend....well, I have two. Of course my husband is the easy answer. I can share anything with him. I can laugh, cry, be mad, joke around...whatever with him! He gets me completely. He knows just the right time when I need a sweet text message saying that I'm beautiful. Or, just when to tell the punch line of a joke so that I spray Coke through my nose!

But, for the purposes of this post I'll disqualify Patrick! :) I met Amanda Davis Harbison in the 5th grade when the student council went to a pool party. Who knew then, but we would eventually become roommates at UA and best friends. We were also each other's maids/matrons of honor. Even though we may go weeks or a couple of months without talking to each other, we always pick up right where we left off. Just as a best friend should!

A Post A Day To Keep The Doctor Away!

So, I'm jumping on another bandwagon! I have been seeing this blog post "program" recently on a lot of blogs (which is why I'm not going to link to another blog here!) There is a list of 30 items to blog about in 30 days. So, I'm going to try this so that maybe it will make me blog every day!

Here is the list (which I will probably start tomorrow!):

Every day, put a picture up of the next thing on the list. Feel free to copy the list and start your own!

Some of these things are a little off the wall, and I may not be able to come up with anything, so I might change them as I go along!

Ok, back to work! I have to get my stuff done so that I can leave on time. We are going to pick up Peyton's little sister tonight! Literally, she's Peyton's 1/2 sister! They have the same dad. Here's a little sneak peek of that little cutie! Her name is going to be Adelaide (Addie) Shelby Snickers Cooke. (The Snickers is not definite!) Peyton's name is Peyton Shelby Smores Cooke, so we're trying to stick with the chocolate/candy theme name to represent their color.

There is one little boy that's available if anyone needs a cute little ball of fur! We'll take a family picture tonight, but until then, here is one of Peyton when we first got her!
