Sick and Tired...

It's Wednesday and I am ready for it to be Friday already!

I am so tired from working on our upcoming promotion. We are having a "Souper Bowl of Caring" party. It is benefitting the Houston Food Bank. We got furniture companies to donate pieces of furniture to giveaway at our event. So we'll have a living room set up at a local grocery store where people can stop by and make a donation and register to win the furniture. We are also have a live broadcast, football toss, and a halftime show performed by high school cheerleaders and drum line.

I had the local newspaper call me and get the details. I didn't know she would be quoting me though! Here is the link to the story:  http://www.katytimes.com/articles/2009/01/27/news/doc497f77ea96d0c442959297.txt

Speaking of being tired...Scott is sick. AGAIN! He usually NEVER gets sick and here he is again. Actually on Monday we were at our friends house for a Bible study and our friend was sick there. Scott made fun of him and called him a pansy. Now look at him! They say that's what he gets for making fun of him. Oh well, I still feel bad for him. 

We are just a sick and tired couple these days...

TGIF

I AM OFF TODAY! I actually have a 4 day weekend. I don't know what I am going to do with myself! I've been working 6-7 day weeks so I finally get to make up my time. It's nice, but also stressful, because I know when I get back I will have a ton of work to catch up on.

Last night was KSBJ's Girl's Day/Night Out. It was awesome. Kate, from Jon and Kate Plus 8, the TLC tv show came and spoke and it was really nice meeting her. She is so skinny after having a set of twins and sixtuplets (or whatever it's called when you have 6 babies at one time). 

Today I slept in and it was so wonderful. Scott came home around 7 this morning after working out and went back to sleep with me. :) We woke up and had a car day. We got them oil changes and got them cleaned. Plus Scotty boy fixed my front bumper that HEEEE scratched up. It made me happy. 

Now he is out networking and trying to get a new band to wear Fig Tree and get their merchandise. I decided to stay home and clean up a little. So hear I am "cleaning up." Which means checking my mail, facebook, and writing on this. :)

Have a great weekend! I KNOW I WILL!!!!

Rough Day

Man today has been a rough day. Actually this week has been tough. 

Scott and I found out this week that 2 of our family members passed away. My very loved Great Aunt Delle passed on January 10th. It's hard to believe that she is gone now. My Grandmother and her lived together for years and I can't imagine how hard it is for our family up in South Carolina right now. I wish so bad I could make the funeral and be there for my Grandmother and family. She was such a great woman and I have so many memories of her growing up. They will stay with me forever...

My heart goes out to Scott's dad and his family for his father's step brother he lost this past week as well. Scott will be leaving for Dallas on Thursday night to be with his dad and to see some of his relatives. I am going to try and go out there with him if I can get my work done.

Work has been pretty overwhelming right now. I still love it, it's just a lot! I wouldn't want to do anything else right now, I just need to take things 1 day at a time.

With all of this said I really miss my family right now. It's a time I would love to give them a hug and be there with them which makes it so much harder. 

Love you all and miss you very much,

Britt and Scott

KSBJ

I love my job. I really do.

I missed everyone at work when I was gone, and I couldn't wait to see everyone today. It is a great feeling. To go to work and not hate it and to love what you do.

We have a few exciting things in the works at KSBJ. I am working on a big partnership with Sam's Club. If this goes through it will be awesome! So keep your fingers crossed. Also we have Kate from John and Kate Plus Eight, the TLC show, coming the end of this month. I really look forward to that.

I thought I'd post some of my favorite pics so far of what I have been up to at KSBJ ... ENJOY!

2009!

Yay! It's 2009!!!

We are back in Texas and actually happy to be back. We had a great visit, but shockingly enough we missed it here a little. We really feel like this is home now.

It was so awesome seeing everyone! I feel like it was perfect timing for us to move here and then visit home for the holidays 2 months later. It made us have something to look forward to and not get too homesick.

On the way home we had 2 rocks crack our windshield! GRRR! I have NEVER had that happen in Florida and go figure it happens here. In Florida they replace your windshield for free...in Texas they don't. I guess that is one of the negative things about it here. We are always bragging about Texas and all, but I can't brag about that.

Last night to ring in the new years we went over to some friends house and hung out. They ordered a 3 foot pizza and we just chilled out. It was a nice laid back time.

Now that we have been home and got to see everyone since we moved here, we can't wait for people to start visiting us! Love you all!!! Good Night! XOXO

Home for Christmas!

We are sooooo close to being home! I can't wait! Everything has really slowed down now and I am very much so ready for a vacation. Scott will be driving over on Thursday and I will be flying home on Friday. I also just got 2 extra days off! Whoop whoop!

Right now it is freezing here! It is in the high 30's. Although I love it feeling like Christmas, I am ready for some warmer weather. I will post some more snow pics from last week. They say it may snow again today! CRAZY!

SNOW!

Ok so, today was a very long day for me! I got to work at 7:30am and didn't leave until 9:00pm! Let me explain:

It started out with meetings all day. Then we had our awesome Christmas party at work. They had catered food, we revealed our Secret Santas, we exchanged gifts, we danced as we cleaned up, it was all sorts of fun! Then I got back to meetings and work. 

Around 7:30 tonight I was still working when a few people that were still at work got on the intercom and announced it was snowing! So we ran outside and video taped our snow ball fight and playing in the snow to put on our website. ***I am talking real snow...I am not exaggerating...pictures to come***

After the snow ball fight I ran inside, frozen, and got back to work when I realized my engagement ring was not on my finger. I started freaking out and retraced my steps and thought I most likely lost it while playing in the snow. 

Next I made the dreaded call to Scott, crying, and explained to him what had happened. Scott being the amazing person he is, calmed me down and said not to worry and that we WILL find it.

I tried to get a few more things done in the office before I left when I got a call from Scott. He told me he found someone with a metal detector and he was coming by the radio station. Once they got there they got straight to work. 

About 30 minutes later, we found it! Yes found the ring, that was in the field of grass outside our radio station, covered in snow, right about where I nailed a coworker of mine right in the stomach with a snow ball.

Needless to say, tonight has been a crazy night! I documented the whole thing so you all could enjoy and laugh (now that we found it) with us.
