Days 12 and 13 of Blog Challenge and Updates!

Hey everyone! I've been having a crazy busy week so I apologize for the sporadic postings! First, Day 12 of the 30 Day Blog Challenge: A song you want played at your wedding:
The song I chose was "In my daughter's eyes" by Martina McBride. This is the song I want to dance to with my dad!
My parents and I on the day I graduated from undergrad, May 2009
In my daughter's eyes I am a hero
I am strong and wise and I know no fear
But the truth is plain to see
She was sent to rescue me
I see who I wanna be
In my daughter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes everyone is equal
Darkness turns to light and the world is at peace
The miracle God gave to me gives me strength when I am weak
I find reason to believe
In my daughter's eyes

And when she wraps her hand around my finger
Oh it puts a smile in my heart
Everything becomes a little clearer
I realize what life is all about
It's hanging on when your heart has had enough
It's giving more when you feel like giving up
I've seen the light, it's in my daughter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes I can see the future
A reflection of who I am and what will be
Though she'll grow and someday leave
Maybe raise a family
When I'm gone I hope you'll see how happy she made me
For I'll be there
In my daughter's eyes


Next: Day 13 of the 30 Day Blog Challenge: A guilty pleasure

Well y'all know I Love these:
M&Ms! They are definitely my guiltiest pleasure! I eat them every dang day!
I also love watching reality shows on MTV. I know they are dramatic and ridiculous at times, but I can't help it. I'm addicted!
Jersey Shore Season 2 starts next week! I'm so excited!!
I also LOVE Teen Mom. I watched the premier last night!

I'm looking to get a new bag for when class starts up again (4 weeks from today, ugh). I love nautical things and I can't decide which one I want to get!
This one I think is really unique. Seabags makes their bags from recycled sails with rope handles and has a nautical design. I love the anchor one so much! I also love the knot ones, the sail ones...the list goes on. They are great for anyone like myself who loves to be on the water.
I also love this nautical knot tote from Vineyard Vines. They too have so many cute nautical designs! I could even get an anchor one! So cute! I'm also loving the sailboat design and of course, the sleeveless pique polo which I am wanting to get for school!

In the lab, I'm currently finishing up the project I've been working on for the past few months and starting the project I'm going to use for my thesis. Between work and the gym, I've been really busy this week! Sorry for the lack of posting...I have been keeping up with y'alls though! Tonight, I'm going to get my hair dyed back to my natural color (brown) but only temporarily. I've been highlighting my hair for years, but every couple of months I need to dye it brown for a week or so before highlighting again because it gets too light! I definitely will have highlights again probably over the weekend; I like the dimension.
Happy Wednesday!

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to my amazing Dad. Even though I don't live in the same state as my parents anymore, I know my dad would do anything for me. Whether its car trouble, boy trouble, money trouble, or just to say hi, I know I can count on him.

Dad and I in Florida this past February...he is wearing his Mississippi State pride!

My dad is a funny, friendly, caring, loyal amazing man, husband, and father. I am so thankful to God for such a wonderful dad!

The past few years, Father's Day is a little bittersweet for me and my family. On July 16, 2007, we lost my mom's dad to cancer. I miss him so much every day. But I know he is in no pain, and in heaven boating, watching baseball, and telling stories to everyone. I am grateful to have had such an amazing grandfather for 20 years.

I hope y'all are enjoying Father's Day with your fathers and also the weekend!

Later y'all!
