Happy New Year, and the wisdom of my fav country artist!

Happy New year! We've been insanely busy here, I spent ALL of yesterday (from 6am to 1am, minus a pregnant woman nap and a break for a movie with Brad) working, despite the fact it was a university holiday. It's just the busy time at work . . .

So, no pictures. But I've been listening to my Brad Paisley CD I got for Christmas, and being the emotional hormonal wreck I am now, I have found so many amazing sentiments in his stuff :-)

My current favorites:
"It Did"
A single red rose and a table for two
A nice Chardonnay and an ocean view
Ships coming in and stars coming out
We sat and we talked ‘til the place closed down
Then we took a long walk down on the beach
Her in that white dress and her bare feet
We stopped and we watched the lighthouse light
I pulled her close and I held on tight and I said to myself
It doesn’t get better than this
No, it doesn’t get better than this
And it did, it did, oh it did

Fast forward to that next spring
We were looking for a preacher picking out rings
Family coming in and friends coming out
To that little white church on the outskirts of town
Me in that tux fighting butterflies
Tears of joy in my mamma’s eyes
Her daddy walking her down the aisle
He lifted that veil and I saw that smile
And I said to myself
It doesn’t get better than this
No, it doesn’t get better than this
But it did, it did, oh it did

Just when I start thinking it’s as good as it can get
This crazy life does something just to let me know
I haven’t seen anything yet

Nine months later nearly to the day
There we were flying down the interstate
Car weaving in, car weaving out
Through traffic running every red light in town
Delivery room and the doctor comes in
I’m right beside her, she’s squeezing my hand
One more push and a baby cries
Sweet little angel with his mamma’s eyes
And I said to myself
It doesn’t get better than this
No, it doesn’t get better than this
But it did, it did, oh it did
Yes it did

Plus:
"Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once"
:-)

My little words of wisdom for the day. I'll try to get more pictures soon. I sent Garrett to a friend's for the morning so I could CATCH UP on work!!
