Late Night Treat!



I LOVE Sonic!! I think I could probably go there at least once a day and be very happy. I like lots of things on the menu, but the drinks have to be my favorite. It is, after all, the Ultimate Drink Stop! Lately I've been hooked on the Strawberry Limeade and the Fresh Fruit Strawberry Slush. As if the slush itself wasn't good enough, there are yummy strawberry pieces in the bottom of the cup!! Mmmm!

Last night, my Sweetie said he was tired of sitting around the house, so I suggested we take a ride. Yes, I know, we wasted our extremely expensive gas for absolutely no reason. But, when my husband is restless, it is sometimes best that we get out of the house! On our little drive, we passed up Kaleidoscopes (an ice cream place kind of like Marble Slab) and Krispy Kreme! Now, my husband loves him some hot donuts from Krispy Kreme and he was craning his neck to look at it, but I think he was trying to be good and not eat that so late at night. Ha! Anyway, we passed up those temptations and were on our way to look at some houses when I saw it. There it was, on the right side of the road, and I just couldn't keep my mouth shut. I said, "Look at that!" To which my hubby replied, "What?" And we promptly turned into Sonic's drive just in the nick of time. I can do without ice cream and donuts, although they're both yummy, but the thought of missing out on my favorite snack? Nope, I couldn't do it.

Now, I mentioned my two favorite drinks, right? Well, I'm not loyal in the least. I mean, if I see something that looks good, I'm gonna try it. You don't get this figure by being picky! So, a friend had told me that she and her husband just love the Java Chillers and so I decided to try one too. I've had one before, and I wasn't too impressed (tasted like ice cream with coffee poured on top) but I decided to give it a second chance. And, lo and behold, it was DELICIOUS!! I had the Mocha Java Chiller and it was a perfect blend of coffee and ice cream. And actually, now that I think of it, coffee flavored ice cream is my favorite, so it's no wonder that I loved it! Ha! I can't wait to go back and get another one! Maybe I'll try a different flavor next time...we shall see.

What is your favorite thing to get from Sonic? Or do you even like it? I can't wait to hear what all of you have to say!

Have a wonderful, and hopefully dry, day!!

    I love sonic also. I wasn't sure if there were that far south. The last time I went to Houston I don't remember seeing one. back to sonic, I love any drink from there. I don't think that I ever get the same thing twice in one week. AT work we drive down to the "happy hour"

    By the way, where are your wedding pics?

    I used to love sonic and all fast food but I have found lately that I am not liking it so much any more. It kind of grosses me out now. Anyways, when we lived near sonic and ate there, I loved the tater tots.

    Okay, girlie, I don't have these anymore because of my WW but my favorite drink at Sonic is a Pineapple Dr. Pepper. Sounds gross but SO great! And I love their Root Beer floats too!!

    P.S. Thanks for the blog invite so I can still keep up with you and your hubby!

    I LOVE Sonic. When we were stationed in MA (twice), we had to do without Sonic and it was awful! When we moved here, I timed the drive to Sonic from my house...1.9 miles! So yeah, I love it. I usually just get a Diet Dr. Pepper, but once in a while I'll get a Cherry Limeade or a Lemon Berry Slush. As far as food, I'm not that crazy about their food, although I like cheese tator tots. And when I go, I shouldn't have to leave a tip! ;)

    Hi Ashlie,
    My very favorite drink from Sonic is the Lemon Berry Slush...it is so good and has chunks of strawberry at the botton also. As for coffee...I don't do it in any form or fashion....just not my thing! For Nicole...there alot of Sonics in Houston and all along the way! Trust me, I've been to ALL of them on the way and alot in Houston! One day I'll learn how to actually post something on here. It doesn't seem as easy as it was to do Myspace, but I'll get it eventually. Thanks for sharing...

    Hmmmm...Like Sandy, I'm not a coffee person but wish I was. I feel like I just don't get Starbucks like the diehard coffee fans do.

    As far as what I like...since I am doing WW I eat the Chicken Strip Wacky Pack (kids meal). It is not too bad for fast food. I really like the malts and milkshakes, too.

    Hey girl! So, my favorite drink is the Java Chillers...so good and much more affordable than Starbucks. (Even though I do LOVE starbucks, but you know what I mean).

    You are so funny! Well, I DID get my figure by being picky....somehow! I tried that chiller once, but I wasn't too impressed, it could be because I was already full. Maybe I'll try it again because of your motivating speech! love ya!

Oh, how time flies!

It's been a year, y'all. A year since I married the love of my life, the funniest man on earth, the sweetest husband around, and the only leader I will follow unconditionally. Nathan and I have said several times over the course of this first year together that it has been so easy and FUN!! Everyone said there would be an adjustment period where we would be getting used to each other's habits, but, we're still waiting for that to happen! Maybe we are super easy-going because it seems as though we've blended our lives seamlessly. Of course, there's been a few little "I do it this way..." moments, but no big blow-ups and such. When I look at my husband, I am constantly reminded of how HUGELY God blessed me with this man. I am absolutely, 100% positive that there is no other man more perfect for me than Nathan. Our love story is too full of God's hand and we are just so much alike. Even our differences complement one another. For instance, I abhor doi...

Hello? It's me again!

Hello all! Apparently I decided to take a 2 1/2 month blog break. I know, you wish I would've warned you. But, the thing is, it just sorta happened on the fly. I got busy, was too lazy to post, and my sister moved away (that's a whole other post). And to top it all off, my computer decided to succumb to one or several of the viruses floating around WebLand. So, when I was ready to post two weeks ago...ha! no internet connection! So there. Those pesky little 1's and 0's showed me! I just thought I was gonna get back into the swing of blogging. Anyway, my computer has been revived (thank you, Lord) and I am anxious to show you what I've been up to this summer. Yes, I have a few PICTURES! Yay! Actually, this post is going to be rife with pics since I'm so behind. They may or may not be in chronological order, though. It depends on how cooperative Blogger is today. *wink* Many of you know that my sister and I like to make stuff and since she now lives thousands of...

On this day 2 years ago, I married the sweetest cutie pie ever. Around this time, my bridesmaids and I were in an upstairs room of the church getting dressed and putting finishing touches on our makeup. I can't believe it's already been 2 years!! It's absolutely flown by! In honor of this momentous day in mine and my hubby's life, I thought I'd post some favorite shots from our special day. I hope you enjoy! Me & my bridesmaids eating at Strawn's before going to the salon for hair & makeup. All of us are sans makeup! Hair in progress and seeing my bouquet for the first time! Daddy & his brother, Greg, in the background Hair and makeup is done! Now on to the church!
