Re: Newbie... opening myself to flames. :)
Hey Chelsea! Welcome to the boards! I think it's pretty cool that you are going to be chatting with us. Like everyone else, I literally check your blog daily.
I have been to Maui so I'm really no help, but I hope y'all have fun!
We had perfect timing for the shoot. We found out the day before Father's Day so it was nice telling my dad about it on Father's Day.

REPRESENT!
Tell me again what years you were there, Brianna? I didn't graduate (I'm a big whoppin' 12 hours away from a degree I don't want anymore), but Mack graduated in May 2005!
I didn't graduate from there... let's just say I enrolled there. First time away from strict dad. I partied a liiiiiittle too much.
But I was there from 2002-2004.

I here you... it's easy to do at Tarleton. My crazy period was while Mack and I were split up, from mid-2005 to late-2006. Mega crazy.
But that's neither here nor there. Point is we were both TSU students at the same time!
I have to say I saw SuperMcG and I immediately thought of you, so I'm glad you were you, if that makes sense.
... I'm a mommy.

YAY! you know what now that you say that I think I remember that too (when were talking about school districts) I know Steph is a mommy too, I just feel like you guys are going to be like uh get off our board and stop talking about your kid (since I got married about 2 years before most of you guys) I like reading, but I am afraid I will interfer
I might disappoint you in the KIND of Mommy I am (and just from poking around the last few days of posts, it seems there are several mommies and step-moms here). I love my kids more than anything, but they aren't my entire life. That's actually why I'm not interested in the "mommy boards". They kind of make me want to holler, "GET A LIFE! Your children will appreciate it!"
I'm not saying that's you... I don't know you. But I really don't see myself spending just a TON of time talking about my kids here. What I miss from my previous life is the conversation of an office... the general rumble about movies and books and what's in the news, and how our husbands are annoying us, etc. My kids are super awesome, though, and yours looks adorable!
I think I love you.. this is how I feel too. I love love love my child and she makes my life AWESOME... but parents that only talk about their children wear.me.out! Sometimes I worry that I talk too much about mine, but then I see what "too much" really is and I think that I am safe most of the time.
Bio
Mine is only 4... even though we were just married, we've been together for 8 years. Anywho, we talk a lot about everything and not so much about weddings around here, so feel free to join in the banter.
Bio
I will try! I guess I always stop by (minus yesterday and today) on wedding talk days and thus is where I get that idea. Most everyone seems pretty great over here and I remember a few who just started on TB right before I got married! Have a great night!
With All the Trimmings
Just do it!
Just going to throw this out there, Stephie... it blows my mind that you have a teenage daughter. You really like like you're in your mid-20s.
Awww, thanks!

Hi Chelsea! Welcome to the board. I'm also a b-pic alum, with a happy recipient-husband.
As far as your Hawaii trip - I've never been, but they make motion sickness patches that are the size of a dime and stick behind your ear. They're prescription, and they're amazing. They last about 3 days, if I remember right... So you stick one behind one ear the night before you leave, and then 3 days later, remove it and stick another one on the other side, and continue rotating as long as you're there. Airplanes, boats, everything - you'll be golden. I only get motion sickness occasionally, but my sister gets it really bad and is able to read on an airplane when using them.
YAY!
I'm glad you're here! Your kids are adorbs!
I'm so jealous of your Hawaii trip! My parent's went there in November and LOVED IT. Hope you guys have a safe trip!
Welcome Chelsea!
Another one you don't know, but I read your blog in my reader daily.
Bio Good Times
Hi Courtney!
I LOVED the pictures of your wedding on Colton's blog. I was so glad to see that he was able to work with your date, and it's clear that you guys made such a great team. I love when that happens!
Angie --
I'll be calling my doctor about those patch things today. That sounds too good not to try. I'm sick of spending the first day of every vacation feeling like poo! (And YAY for DH liking his gift!
)
Hi Chelsea! I am yet another one of your blog stalkers! We also have some mutual friends...Brandy & Brandon Frank! They shot our wedding, engagements, & did a mini-shoot of my siblings & I.
LOVE your work & hope you like it here!
