still pining away for this wedding registry item...

saving up to buy it. waiting for it go on on sale. please?

has anyone ever seen this chalkboard paint installed? scott has mentioned it a few times and when i saw this image on martha stewart, i loved it. we might find some cool frames and paint the insides of them with chalkboard paint, or maybe we will do this calendar idea? 

yeah for fun weekend projects!

concepts my new patio.

its only 48"x48", so it won't fit much. but i want to make another space for our home, where we can have a romantic dinner, or simply read a book on a pretty day. these are my ideas...

sushi. on. mckinney.

sushi on mckinney. one of the greatest sushi restaurants in dallas. 

the robb roll and a little 80's decor is all you need. 

august 15th, 2008 was a sad day. 

according to pegasus news, they shut down so the owner could retire.

did ben sanada know the number of people he would disappoint? 

they must have heard from their fans because it is re-opening in april!

i have had it in my april calendar all year, and now that it is mid april, i, along with many in my office, are waiting on pins and needles for its new debut. 

i have emailed sushionmckinney@gmail.com to see when the blessed day is so we can be one of the first to return! robb roll, here we come! :)

ONE YEAR OLD!!

Tillman's Roadhouse

this delicious little restaurant in the bishop arts district has become one of my dad and i's favorite. We ate here one night, and returned the next week with Scott. I LOVE the design style and detail here. I feel inspired when I dine at Tillmans. Plus, they have a delicious orange margarita!

april fools.

this morning I emailed some of the girls and told them I was pregnant....

please see the hilarious correspondence below. I feel bad about Natalie tearing up, I really do.

friends. please don't share this with anyone yet...but last night I took 3 pregnancy tests when I got home because I have thrown up twice at work in the morning (once last week, and monday) and have been getting hot flashes and just don't feel well.....so I was nervous, because I was on the antibiotic and I think it messed up my birth control.   So all 3 of the tests said I was pregnant....I am freaking out. I am so nervous. I haven't told Scott yet....I don't know what to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   I can't wait until after work and Bible Study so we can talk about this. I need yall and I am so freaking freaked. I would love to have a baby, but Scott will freak out and I am so nervous. aaaaaaaaah. oh my. Can we all leave work and meet up right now? Surely, maybe they are wrong. They were just the cheap kind at Walgreens....   What would I do if this was going to happen, Lin AHHHHHHHHHHH!

April is Child Abuse Awareness Month

scott's quirk-i-ness

to expand on the quirks i mentioned in the blog below, i thought i would share some of them with you...

 

- he LOVES to use pine sol. he fills the kitchen sink up with water and pours pine sol in, to freshen up the house.

- when we first met, scott had this pair of basketball shoes. they were from his senior year of high school. they were so small that they made his toes bleed. it took probably 3 years of me asking him to get new basketball shoes, that he finally caved in. 

- big red. the boy loves big red. who drinks that stuff anyways?

- road trips. no matter how long the road trip, no matter how many people are in the car, no stops are allowed. you have to try to make it to your destination without any stops.

- he sleeps in his jeans. we all know how tight scott's jeans are (and how good he looks in them). but he sleeps in them! always has, as long as i've known him. he says they are comfortable.

- scott and computers don't really mix. he doesn't really like the internet. haha, when we started dating, i always told him he was "so bad at the computer".

- sarcastic jokes. he is made of them. i didn't really get his humor when we started dating, but now i have conformed to his humor. he likes to hiccup (or sneeze, or cough, etc) and then say "lindsay, did you hear that? i just hiccuped".

- donuts. every saturday morning in college, scott went to the donut store. he gets a chocolate donut, donut holes, and a donut twist.

- which brings me to cinnamon rolls and cinnamon strussel and cinnamon sugar toast. the boy loves cinnamon.

 

now that i am writing all of these down, i am thinking i really love him. he is so great. i love his quirks :)

scott and i are looking for a large map like this one, for our home.

 

when scott and i started dating, he talked about how one day he wanted to have a large map in his home for recording where he has been and where he wants to go. i remember thinking he was quirky when he told me things like that...
