Trick Or Treat!!!

So it was definitely a Treat to take Jake out for his first Halloween and get him all dressed up in his doggy outfit. He was so cute....although he wouldn't let me paint his nose black. When I would try to do it he would shake his head no. It was so funny. He has learned to shake his head no a lot. We had fun just taking him to a few neighbors houses and then Grandma came over and sat with us to hand out candy. Jake got a kick out of all the kids. He was screaming because he was trying ot get their attention it was so fun. Then he was pooped and crashed hard. Poor guy, it was such a big day for him but it was all worth it.

7 Random Things About Jessica

Thanks Steph for tagging me...haha. Actually, I think this is kind of fun!!!

So if you want to know then I suppose you can read on....

1). I am a NEAT freak and hate clutter.......
Most of you already know this about me but I am a complete neat freak. It has been quite the challenge these days with Jake but I am managing pretty well. I clean out my closets about every 6 months or sooner. If I haven't worn it in the last 6 months I probably won't ever wear it. It is the truth. People think I have a ton of clothes until they see my closet. I keep all my shoes in their boxes because I hate them all over the floor. I have a lot of other crazy pet peeves but these are just a few of my neat freak ones.

2). I do not drink coffee.....
That is right, here in the Hoyt House we do not drink coffee. I have been free of my addiction for 7 years. I drank it when I first met Mike, actually I drank 2 cups a day. But Mike hates coffee so I just stopped cold turkey (that was the worst.) But I got through it. I love the smell and have tried to drink it again but it just doesn't taste good to me anymore. Weird.

3). I love sugar......
So Halloween is here is I have candy in my house! Ugggghhh! I am going to finish it off I know it. I do not keep candy in my house or anything sweet because I have the biggest sweet tooth ever. I inherited it from the man below.....my grandpa. I swear I would rather have a big fat chocolate cake instead of real food. That is so bad but that explains why I do not keep it in my house.

4). I cannot eat dairy.....
I am lactose intolerant and those pills do not work for me. So I eat no cheese, ice cream, milk or anything with "whole milk" in it. I can eat chocolate though and it doesn't do anything to me. Don't ask me how I do it because it is just something that is in my life and I do not know even exists anymore. I haven't eaten it since I was 19 and truthfully....I do not like cheese anymore because I tried a small piece and it was sick. Yes, cheese is sick tasting to me. This is why I like to think I stay thin. We all knew if I could eat ice cream.....I would be in trouble.

5). I love my hubby more than I could have ever imagined.......
So you know when you think you know what love is? Well then you actually meet the one person that is meant for you and then you are like..."this is what love is?" Wow! I love my hubby. He is so awesome and I hate spending a minute of my day without him. I am one of those wives that could spend every waking minute with my husband and never be tired of him. I love being with him and wish he was home every day with us. We hope and pray he will be sooner than later and I know he will but just not soon enough. I just hope everyone finds that kind of love we have once in their lifetime because it is truly amazing!!!!!!

6). I love to watch TV.....
I am so addicted to those dumb reality shows and just series of shows. I hate that I am that way because I am so consumed sometimes. But I love the drama and reality that is involved in them. But I think about how much time I waste and what I could actually be doing that is more productive. I like to look at this as my sick addiction!!!

7). I secretly love watching Football...haha
So I am a huge NFL fan and love to watch it. BUT....I have to pretend I hate it or not really pretend but sometimes I do because that is all that is on in my house on Sundays. But before I met Mike....LOVED IT! I guess it was because I watched a game or two and not every game. And it didn't control where I went or what I was doing. Anyway, I still love the game and like to watch it just not every minute of my Sunday! GO NINERS......

So I pretty much tag anyone who reads this....I want an email if you do not have a blog. Or better yet you should create a blog and post it.
