The Nole Lilley Family

Okay onto my siblings... There are five of us, and I am right in the middle. Nole, Anna, Me, Erin and Edward. I loved growing up with so many siblings and each one fit in just perfectly.Nole Hunter is obviously the oldest Lilley. He played the big brother role very well and even got me grounded for kissing a boy back in the day;-) I also have memories of him when we were kids playing the butcher! We would run around on our hands and knees and he would catch and kill us than role us under the coffee table to cook! Haha he was such a wonderful older brother and now its fun to have him as more of a friend. me and Cody both love when we get to spend time around Nole and his family. He is a intelligent and funny person a lot like my dad. You might have to get to know him before you see that side, but when you do he is a great guy to have around.

So who is Noles family? Well back when they were babies themselves Nole married Heather. They moved to Georgia, had babies and than came home. But even before they were engaged Heather was coming along on family vacations (without Nole even there!) and was just another one of the girls:-) She has such a caring heart and is so talented! Everything she touches turns out beautiful, including her wonderful babies:-)Avery Bay is their oldest and is four years old! I cant hardly believe that because it feels like yesterday we were packing those babies around camp with us:-) She has the cutest little personality and is very smart! She is also talented just like her mom. In lots of ways she is a mini version of Heather. Its so fun to see her growing up and hear all the funny things she says. She is such a wonderful joy and addition to our family.North hunter is 2? and he is a little man. He has a little man voice. He dresses like a little man. and has a little man temper:-) He is more shy like his parents and you have to work him out of his shell but when you do he has just as much personality as his sister. He is a Darling little brute:-) and thats the Nole Lilley Family!

Parents!

I know everyone thinks their families are the greatest but mine REALLY is! I'm always talking about how much I love and adore each of them so I thought I would introduce you to all the fun personalities that makes up the Lilley family:-)
I will start with my wonderful parents for tonight! It's so fun to have parents that you respect, and have a friendship with as well. I am so blessed to have such supportive and loving parents who have shown us what a strong Christian marriage should look like, and what a amazing impact you can have on your children’s life. I think they have done an amazing job! And besides, there some of the "funnest" people you will ever meet:-)My mother was an amazing teacher to us, and is one of my best friends. I love the knowledge and encouragement she gives and admire her heart for God. My goal in life is to be a woman who strives after God like she has, and a wife and mother who continually is growing and being an example of what a godly woman is. Im so proud of the mama I have and love her to death. She is also hysterical! You probably never will but I wish you could see my Marmy dance, tell the story of little jaspers and watch the grinch:-) She is filled with life laughter and kept our home the happiest place to be. What a huge blessing!

My dad has the knowledge of a dictionary, persusive skills like no other, a truely passionate soul, a heart of gold, ideas beyond anything you could imagine and the dicapline to see those dream come true. He believed and encouraged our every dream and whim filling our minds with intregu and intrest to learn. He had a book for everything! (He also has a song for everythign too:-) I love my daddy and respect his oppinion SO much. He showed me what a man and husband should be giving Cody big shoes to fill (Which he is doing seemingly effortlesly by the way!) Anyways heres to the greatest dad on earth I love you daddy!

Celebrities I Adore

I know you don't really care... but here are my top five female celebrities (not necessarily in order)

For starters Jennifer Aniston!I was reading on yahoo this morning how JenniferAniston was one of the top searches above things like weather even! Im not surprised though because in my opinion what's not to love? I have admitted to being a complete Friends fan:-) I listen to it like music while cleaning, cooking and than of course doing nothing. So naturally any of the Friends cast has my full vote for being great but Jennifer is on the top for me!
Secondly Hilary Duff. I think she is so cute! Her style is fantastic I wish I could have all her cloths! And I will even admit to liking her music:-) heehee shes another one that I have liked for a long time ever since the Lizzy McGuire days. I also love that she hasn't gone of the deep end like so many other young stars do these days. I think shes a great role model and my style icon.Okay Kate Mara... I adore her because she is so stinking adorable! I haven't seen her in anything besides Shooter but I fell in love with this girl! Between her accent, freckles and girl next door looks she is probably the celebrity I would want to look like most... My husband always thinks thats weird but shes just so darn cute!
Kate Beckinsale! As Cameron would say "She is my favorite vampire" and she is.,, I love the Underworld movies (You should definitely see the new one Sonia is almost as cute;-)... almost. I think she is beautiful and I love her personality, well at least the side of her she shows in interviews;-)
I have found that a lot of people don't agree with me on this one but Kirsten Dunst!!!! Love her! I love her roles in Elizabethtown, Marie Antoinette, Wimbledon, Spider Mans, Mona Lisa Smiles and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. She isn't my favorite dresses when she isn't "dressed up" but shes real and beautiful:-) I'm a fan.
So there you have it five of my favorite celebrities... I know I said they were pretty, beautiful, adorable, cute and stunning a lot. This doesn't mean that Im in love with or obsessed with beautiful people... just these ones haha.

This is what Blah looks like


One of those days, when everything seems to go wrong. I got up and forced my self to get ready when all I wanted to do was go get a cider from Starbucks, curl up in my cozy bed, listen to the rain and read my book. I finally got out the door, a couple minutes early so I could get coffee. I drove about a block pulled over and confirmed that my tire was completely flat! I sat around and waited for the man to come change my tire than got to work a half hour late with no coffee to be had.
My boss pulled me into his office when I got here and told me we would be letting go one of my good friends here at work and the meeting was at ten. I sulked around trying to work than the meeting… it was sad:-( His wife is eight months pregnant with a baby boy, and now he has no job. Bummer.
They laid off more people after I left the meeting and now I feel completely bummed out. I have to work a half hour later than I would have than go to America tire to get the tire fixed, so I can drive out to the valley and hang out with Randi ad Rylee, than come back to work in the morning. Blah that’s how I feel, blah.
Sometimes my life seems rather pointless and meaningless, it’s good to remind yourself that God is here even in days like this…

Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. - Philippians 1:6

Choices...

I have decided that I am going back to school. I'm not ready to have babies, and my job isn't doing much for me so... It's time to do something with myself:-) Heehee

So here is the choices I have, do I go back and continue towards the nursing career I started to pursue at Biola? This seems like a smart choice because its something I can do even when I want to be a stay at home mom. Honestly everything about this choice makes more since if I am going to do more school... It pays good. There are ALWAYS jobs available. And you can work part time and the hours are great! Haha so why wouldn't I do this? Because what I want to do is have a career in criminal justice.
Bah haha I know I know I'm crazy. When I was in high school my plan was to spend four years in the military as a pay load specialist (Just because it sounded interesting!) Than have them pay for me to go to school for a criminal justice degree to eventually work as a US Marshal....
My boyfriend at the time, who is now my husband, was not a fan of this plan. He didn't want me in the military or having a life long career. I agreed and still do. I think I will want to be a stay at home mom when the time comes. But until than this career path sounds the most appealing to me!

and honestly I'm not going to be a nurse if I'm a mom. I don't want to work if I'm a mom so to pursue that career only to not use it is just as dumb as this one except that I actually want to do it... If that makes since.

Maybe I should just save my money and not do either... sigh what to do what to do heehee
