Tattoo!!

I am getting my first tattoo in July. A very very long time from now but it will be the best time I think to get it. For work I get a paid week vacation. I get a total of 9 days off and I get paid for 5 of them. The tattoo that I want is on my foot. While it is healing, shoes are not supose to be worn (or so I have been told). So it'll be summer and I'll be off for 9 days straight so no work shoes. I want to get the breast cancer ribbon and the word love. But I want the L to be the ribbon and the rest of the word just written out. I have a few ideas of how I want the L to look. The reason that I want this is because the breast cancer ribbon WILL ALWAYS represent my MawMaw Boyer who was a breast cancer survivor. And there will always be love in my life. It is something that is meaningful to me and no something I will regret years from now. MawMaw will always be in my heart. It may be an odd place to get it but I don't want a 'tramp stamp' (no offense if you have one) and I don't want one on my wrists. And when I have babies, the skin around my belly will stretch and I don't want to take the chance of the tattoo being ruined.
here are a couple ideas of how I was thinking of getting the L.
 See the 'e'? that's what I want the L to looke like and the rest of the lettering ( OVE) I want to look like they are also pink ribbon.

 I also kind of like this but with Love instead of Hope.

I'm leaning more towards the first one.. What do y'all think????

I'm Going to Be an Aunt!!

I can not wait until April 9. Maybe sooner or a few days after. My brother, Chris, and my new sister are having their baby girl!! Victoria Rose. I could not ask for a better brother in my life.
To begin with, he is not my blood brother. He is..an adopted brother, kinda. He is one of my best friends who is like a brother to me. I only have an older sister so this is helpful. He is always there for me when I need him. And I am the same for him. I honestly do not know where I would be right now if he would have never walked into my life. We meet at McDonald's where he use to work and I currently work. He got married to the love of his life January 21. I could not be happier to have an amazing sister come into my life also. She is amazing for him. She takes care of him and keeps him out of trouble.
Tori is going to be soooo spoiled!!!

After the storm always comes the rainbow

"After the storm always comes the rainbow."
One of my favorite sayings. I do not remember where I first heard it at but it has helped me out a lot, and not just me but also my friends. It reminds me that after something bad happens, something good will always follow. Just like with a storm. After the storm passes, the sun comes out and a rainbow appears. For example, the rain for 40 days with Noah and the ark. God sent out a rainbow. I always tell my friends this whenever they are going through a rough time. The first time I told my best friend, Cody, that saying, it really made his day brighten up. He even posted a facebook status about it and said that he was thankful for having me in his life. There are days that I want to just walk away from him because he annoys the crap out of me, but I know that my life will never be the same without him. Ever since I have told him that saying, he always tells me it whenever I am going through a rough time.
So whenever the next time you go through a rough time in life, remind yourself that, "after the storm, always comes the rainbow."
