All I know is that I have felt this impression for the past few years to post about my life, not just the good things or funny things, but the bad, hard and frustrating things as well. I'm not sure if this is for me or someone else ( though I'm not really expecting anyone to read this). So why and I writing this? Im making a promise to you and myself that anything I post will be 100% true and honest. To show proof I've added a few pictures. Now most bloggers will post the best pictures of their lives and of themselves. I mean who wouldn't? Best <strike>foot</strike> face forward right? </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #cccccc;"><br /></span>
So just to show how REAL I can be here are some awesome photos of me: the good the bad and the ugly<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody>

The whole point to this to show that even in this world of putting our <strike>lives on the computer </strike> BEST version of our lives on the computer for everyone to see, there are still NORMAL and REAL people, families and women out there. I have read and seen too many blogs and pictures and what perfect lives look like and I come away feeling more empty than happy. Not to say that the object of is to make me feel less superior, but that I was found wanting and feeling that my life was not as glamorous as my computer screen was showing me. (SIDE NOTE: I LOVE that when other post awesome things in their life and I am in no way trying to be negative or a poor sport when others lives are going great) All I'm doing is showing that their are two sides to every coin through my own life; and that is my kind of PERFECT. Now some more pictures:<br />

So much to my surprise they canceled everything. My office was closed and David's school was canceled. It snowed ALL DAY LONG. and by the evening it looked like this:<br />

We gout about 18'' of snow and its a good thing we didn't go anywhere that day. But we had fun watching people throughout the day struggling to dig out their cars and in the cold and us just spying on them from our warm apartment. Overall it was a great day until we had to dig out our car. David was kind enough to dig me out so I could go to work the next day. And i just watched. :) </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhd4v5zFo259jLp95D4CL1CC3FhUjqdvFCC9Ysu4ANVEYxiqp2IOx9sO0d3o9syxDwFlQAcozUzE5p2cdq-d8Pzxwr5ogS_riIFhVB9Uqn2DXZZtkN-5Pwi9yA5QnCG562PSyEShyphenhyphenB38RbK/s1600/IMG_0021.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhd4v5zFo259jLp95D4CL1CC3FhUjqdvFCC9Ysu4ANVEYxiqp2IOx9sO0d3o9syxDwFlQAcozUzE5p2cdq-d8Pzxwr5ogS_riIFhVB9Uqn2DXZZtkN-5Pwi9yA5QnCG562PSyEShyphenhyphenB38RbK/s320/IMG_0021.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji3okIMlRJeP-7Q5OkM1I-Ycptyrh_m5Bgs28HfLMdU3xayVQDsRg7a5zScqO1SkV6niffixCE9QadUJGPLk2iVY4JXk6iYJraYOHpXAEsEUkphiqQhXor8NC_E1J2UZJLubOW9cMTQoAS/s1600/IMG_0019.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji3okIMlRJeP-7Q5OkM1I-Ycptyrh_m5Bgs28HfLMdU3xayVQDsRg7a5zScqO1SkV6niffixCE9QadUJGPLk2iVY4JXk6iYJraYOHpXAEsEUkphiqQhXor8NC_E1J2UZJLubOW9cMTQoAS/s320/IMG_0019.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05577535185266548057noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5715788714369587806.post-589576505493967902011-01-08T12:26:00.000-05:002011-01-08T12:26:42.327-05:00Last 2 Weeks of 2010 and on to 2011!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdoH2TBcqlzimhepk9ykgQzTXOan6Ix6dv8rfhh_qVwr9cYzmecOzwdip0fvxRoflKsHOwICTAmgMT46YCjzuW3jlRXqUe5p2t6ts2DDON5sVEPWHwwa4Mn1jePnREbv7h7U-7LiNLKPq4/s1600/IMG_0264.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdoH2TBcqlzimhepk9ykgQzTXOan6Ix6dv8rfhh_qVwr9cYzmecOzwdip0fvxRoflKsHOwICTAmgMT46YCjzuW3jlRXqUe5p2t6ts2DDON5sVEPWHwwa4Mn1jePnREbv7h7U-7LiNLKPq4/s320/IMG_0264.JPG" width="320" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAO5Ndu_sPHMVcOzLxXrVEBEaECfl0XbILWxUvRDDTJtNPzLEnIqTMf5fSv3-IG_LoLz4c38znPreqtNn8y5YmEIOoVCFS7iw2gjopVMa3gxdaWvlHp75jFsEkDODRjVtzt2PUHxt4YKhO/s1600/IMG_0265.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAO5Ndu_sPHMVcOzLxXrVEBEaECfl0XbILWxUvRDDTJtNPzLEnIqTMf5fSv3-IG_LoLz4c38znPreqtNn8y5YmEIOoVCFS7iw2gjopVMa3gxdaWvlHp75jFsEkDODRjVtzt2PUHxt4YKhO/s320/IMG_0265.JPG" width="320" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #351c75; text-align: center;">Before we left for Cali we had to get into the Christmas Spirit! Our apartment with the few decorations we came up with. And the Best part is that we found that awesome tree and ornaments for FREE! we LOVE craigslist!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #351c75; text-align: center;"> </div><div style="color: #351c75;">Christmas break in California was GREAT! I was so much fun to spend time with family and be in California. We spent the first week with the Paxman clan. We had Bakers, we played Catan, we went to Gma and Gpa's house who knows how many times, we got pedicures and of course you cannot forget the RAIN. "Look its still RAINING!" as Mamma Paxman would say... about three times a day. :) It was a good excuse to stay inside to keep warm, cuddle and watch Christmas MOVIES (the cheesy Halmark ones included. They are my favorite. ) But luckily it did not rain on Christmas day. It was a Christmas miracle! It was beautiful and sunny and bright. Just what we wanted when coming to California from cold wintery Boston. </div><br />

</div><span style="color: #20124d;">After all the festivities of that day we woke up early the next morning( which wasn't difficult for David and I because we were still on Boston time- 3 hours earlier) and drove to sunny Santa Barbara. Now that Aunt Karen and Uncle Jim live in Santa Barbara it seems like there is never a dull moment. Who am I kidding is there usually a dull moment with the Manns anyway? We celebrated 3 birthdays that week. Shout out to Katherine Nelson, Denise Mann, and of course the most important of all my dad, Preston Mann- HAPPY BIRTHDAY. And on that wonderful day we decided play tennis. All 30 of us. As we pull up to the courts there are only 2 open and within 10 minutes there were 4. I guess the other people couldn't handle the heat. But in the end we all ended up on one court playing 5 games of around the world and 50 games of death and resurrection. NO one wanted to stop. On our last morning, within hours of us getting on a plane back to Boston, I realized I had not been to the beach at all that week. A few of us got up early and took an hour stroll on Goleta Beach. It was beautiful, and the last touch I needed before heading out East. We spent New Years Eve in the Boston Airport waiting for out luggage... that never came down the baggage claim. Happy New Year to us right? Apparently it never got on the plane from our layover in Georgia. I was not a happy camper, but i was returned to us two days later. </span><br />

It was an awesome Christmas present! And made my New Years SO much better!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #20124d; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #20124d;">Now as many of you know, or will know now is that David and I will are expecting a baby BOY in May. We are ecstatic and feel so grateful for this wonderful blessing. The whole time I was in Santa Barbara, I was called mamma, and my little brother Taylor rubbed and shook my belly everyday: he wanted to feel him move so badly (I think he is excited to be an uncle). So this is for Brittany who has been getting my case about putting up pictures and motivation for Andrea to put some up as well. </div><span style="color: #20124d;">Pregnancy Photos:</span><br />
