am. i. boring?

so i just realized that i created this blog with the intention of writing in it all the time and keeping people (well those that care to look) updated on my life. but recently i have logged on, gone to create a new blog and gone...blank.

am i that boring? has my life just come to a routine that no one (not even myself) would care to read about?

don't get me wrong. life is wonderful right now, but i guess nothing of the ordinary happens to me. ha.

well...until something interesting does happen....

.ouch.

i went tanning yesterday.

i got burnt really bad on my back/butt.

i made a yummy chicken recipe and veggies for dinner yesterday and scott liked it!

tonight i am making pot roast (it is cooking itself as we speak)

i love the crock-pot!

we went to jenny's wedding last weekend.

it was beautiful and fun!

i can't wait to have cam and jen over for dinner soon.

the end.

yummy. cookies.

i am officially obsessed with cooking right now! I'm using so many differeny ingredients that I have never used before and everything (so far) has turned out yummy!

my sister-in-law, emily has this blog with her friend val and it has all of these yummy and healthy recipes on it. i stole one.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies.
that you make with 100% whole wheat flour instead of white flour (the stuff that everyone knows is bad for you :) the recipe also called for 1 cup of light brown sugar and 1 cup of white sugar. i used the brown sugar, but i replaced the white sugar with 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce. the cookies turned out yummy!

i'm not quite sure what I will make tonight, but i hope it turns out just as good.

oh, and thor got some of our wedding pictures done!!!!

Picky Eater

I made a new and healthy meal for my husband last night and he actually ate it...and liked it!



I'm really trying to eat healthier and be a more healthy person overall. I am trying to eat more veggies, whole grains, and organic foods. It's a challenge because my husband and I can both be picky sometimes.



I made a Taco Casserole last night with organic ground turkey instead of beef and fresh peppers and onions instead of a packet of seasoning. I also used the 2% milk cheese which is supposed to be better for you. The whole thing turned out really well and despite our mutual dislike for peppers we both enjoyed the meal. I plan on making more yummy and healthy foods this week and hope that Scott likes those as well : )



That's all I've got for today....



love.love.love.



Joy Elizabeth Greene

home again...with my new husband

I've been married for 10 days now and I cannot believe it! The wedding came and went so quickly! I feel like I can barely remember any of it because it all flew by.

Scott and I went shopping yesterday for a few things for the apartment and got all of our presents put away. Things are looking good : )

Then Maria and Eli came over to help and hang out...we took eli to the playground.

It is so wonderful waking up to Scott every morning. I have never been happier in my entire life. I feel so lucky, loved and relaxed now that everything is settling down.

5 more days!

I have to admit that as excited as i am...the reality hasn't quite sank in yet that I will be someone's wife in just a few days...

I hope the weather is nice because my hair can be quite stubborn on humid or rainy days

I am excited to walk down the isle to Scott....and I hope he cries (happy tears of course!)

My dad is giving a speech...should I be scared?

I can't wait to see the reception site all decorated up!

I need to tan some more.

just give it a shot

so...i guess i'm not technically mrs. greene yet...but in 8 days i will be!

i wanted to start this blog because i used to be a huge fan of journaling...now i'm always on the computer and i never take the time to sit down and write out my thoughts. so i figured i would try this.

i have been following along with several different people who use this as their "just throw it out there so its off your chest, document your life kind of thing" and i have to admit...i like it.

it's so interesting to me the things that people will say on the internet. so here i am world...maybe not world...but those who care to see what is going on in my sometimes...interesting...not so sure where i go from here...life.
