TIM HAWKINS

Last night, my good friend Corey came up to our apartment and we all went out to eat together and then went to go see Tim Hawkins in Orland Park, IL. It was awesome! We had so much fun! We got a few pictures and lots of videos. The best part was when Tim was talking about marriage. He was asking who all was married and stuff and lots of people cheered. He then made a joke about how they were hiding from the kids, leaving the kids at home with a sitter and that "we're FREE!!!!" lol. Then, he asks who were newlyweds that had only been married less than a year. Literally, Craig and I were the ONLY ONES. So he asked how long we'd been married. We've been married almost 7 months, so Craig just told him "7 months" so what does Tim do? He starts calling Craig "7 month guy" and teasing us from stage. I wish I had gotten it on video! We asked the church if they recorded the video of Tim, but they weren't sure. But it was hilarious. Afterwards, we all got autographs and Craig had him sign it to "7 month guy" and Tim was like "Oh you're him? Awesome!" it was great. Then he asks Corey "You know him?" and Corey's like "Yeah, man! I was his best man!" and then of course, he asks me if I was the wife and called me a lucky girl. And I thought to myself "Why yes, yes I am" :-)

Then, we all get back to the apartment and what does Craig do? He decides to ship me down to Chillicothe with Corey!! So I am currently in Chillicothe visiting family and friends that wanna see me. But it was really nice of Corey to drive me down here to my mom's place. It's gonna be awesome being able to surprise family and friends. Especially those that don't have facebook or don't know about this website. Tomorrow, I'm planning on driving to my grandparent's house and surprising them :-D It's gonna be great seeing their faces. I'll get the =O "What are you doing here?!" response - and it's gonna be great!! :-)

When I walked into my mother's apartment last night, all of the sudden I heard a quiet "Meow" and saw Callie walking out to visit me. And right behind her was Jeannie! Which was really strange because Jeannie doesn't normally come running out when someone she hasn't seen in a while or someone she doesn't know is here. So her coming out while Corey was still at the apartment was really strange for her. But Callie was like "Oh! You're HERE!!!!" And immediately wanting attention, wanting to be held. Oh it was super cute!! And she hasn't left my side since I got up either. She's been stuck to me like Velcro all morning long and is currently laying next to me on the couch. Cute little thing :)
