It's a...

BOY!!! Yes, we found out this week that Bryan's brother Jason, and his wife Whitney are expecting a little boy! That was our early Christmas gift! :0) Ya'll should have seen how excited Bryan was after he got off the phone with Jason. He was going around yelling, "It's a BOY!!" and "Moss' don't have girls!" I kept telling him to shut up or God was going to prove him wrong, and I want a boy dangit! ;0)

Bryan wanted to immediately go out and buy our nephew his first baseball glove! I made him a deal that he could buy the glove if I got to buy a cute outfit! :0) We're really excited if you can't tell!

Baby boy Moss should be here mid May, and we can't wait! What a great Christmas gift!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!!!

Well, I'm glad to report that Bryan and I officially have started our holiday adventures! :0) Bryan drove to Rockwall on Friday after I got out of school and we officially kicked off our Christmas break! Unfortunately though, we had to start it at the Dr.'s office!

All week long I've been battling a throat issue. It wasn't my throat that was hurting, but my right tonsil, or so I thought. I tried everything, but by Friday I couldn't take it anymore. It also made me really mad, because I've been trying to get a hold of my regular Dr. all week, and wasn't able to. I literally called and called all these different numbers, different times a day, left messages, and never heard anything! I finally decided to skip my Dr.'s office and headed to the clinic instead. I'm happy to report that I got right in, they were so nice, and took great care of me! They did test me for strep, but thank goodness the test came back negative. They said that nothing was wrong with my tonsils, but it was actually my lymph nodes that were swollen. The Dr. ended up giving me some medicine that knocked me out, but made the pain go away!

I kept taking it on Saturday and it REALLY knocked me out, so most of the day on Saturday I slept. Poor Bryan was by himself most of the time, but he did a great job of taking care of me! He cleaned my kitchen, did dishes, hung up my huge pile of clean clothes, wrapped presents, and much more. He is so good to me! He's going to make an amazing husband...but then, that is why I'm marrying him! ;0) We did however, make time to have our Christmas, just the two of us! :0) Here are a few pictures of our first Christmas, opening gifts!


Bryan suprised me with a key to turn on the gas to my fireplace. For some reason one didn't come with my house, so he got one so we could enjoy a nice, romantic, fire! :0)

Sunday morning, we got up and went to church, went to Walmart to get some groceries for dinner that night, and then I came home and took a nap! We then spent the rest of the afternoon & evening wrapping tons of presents! I thought our wrapping would never end! But it did!

We got everything loaded up on Monday and then traveled down to my parent's house in Lorena. We celebrated my family's Christmas today and had lots of fun! We're going to my grandparent's house tomorrow night for Christmas Eve/Day and then I'll be on my way Friday to Shreveport for Christmas with Bryan's family! I'm so excited!

Well, I'm signing off for tonight! I'll post lots more pictures later on this week when I can! I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas, celebrating with your friends and family!

true love

• True love is your fiance' waking up at 5:30 a.m. in the morning and driving 2.5 hours to see you.
• True love is him doing this after he's returned home the night before at 2:30 a.m, because he's had a gymnastics meet that weekend and had to drive 3 hours home late last night.
• True love is him only having 3 hours of sleep when he drove to come see you this morning.
• True love is him driving 2.5 hours in the early morning in order to spend the day with you and then driving 2.5 hours back that night.
• True love is him not being able to be apart from you for one more minute, even though you're going to see each other the coming Friday.
• True love is him telling you that you're completely worth every part of it, and that he would have driven 10 hours just to be with you for one day.
• True love is what I have with Bryan Mitchell Moss..and I couldn't be more happier than I am right now! :0)

I love you baby! Thank you SO much for driving to see me today! I know how tired you were, and it meant a lot to me. I had such a wonderful day and am counting down the seconds until I'm with you again. I love you more than life!

Love the Future Mrs. Bryan Moss!!

bad boys, bad boys..whatcha gonna do..whatcha gonna do when they come for you?!

So, for the past 2 weeks, I have had this random Ford F250 parked RIGHT in front of my house.

When I went home to my parents for Thanksgiving, it wasn't there. When I came back that Sunday it was there. I really didn't think anything of it, because my neighbors have parties sometimes and lots of random people park in front of my house. However, by the next day, they're all gone-EXCEPT for this truck. I thought that was kinda weird, but was like, "well, I bet it'll be gone by the time I go to school." Well, when I got home that day, it still was there. This continued over the next few days. I never saw anyone come near it, and it NEVER left. In the beginning, it made me very uneasy having it there, and not knowing who's it was, or the story on it. However, as the days passed by, it just began to make me mad! I wanted this truck GONE!

I talked to Bryan about it, and asked him if I should call the police and if they could do anything about it. He said I could call, but he didn't know if they would do anything, because the truck was parked legally. So, I didn't end up calling, and the days passed by.

Bryan saw the truck today and asked if I called the police yet, and I told him no, to which he told me to call them TONIGHT! I said ok, so after he left, I called the police with all the information about the truck. The lady I spoke to was very helpful, and said she'd send someone over right away. I wasn't expecting that she would actually send someone to my house, but I was like ok! So about 10 minutes later, an officer rang my doorbell and got my story/information about the truck. I told him when I first noticed the it there and that it hadn't ever been moved. Then he said, "Well, I'm really glad you called ma'am because that truck is STOLEN!!!"

YEP, he said stolen! Can you believe that?!! I couldn't! No wonder it hadn't moved! Haha..So long story short, the officer said he would take care of the truck and he had a tow truck on it's way to tow the truck.

I am now SO happy to report that the truck is G-O-N-E!!! Whoo hoo! I'm so relieved. Bryan also mentioned something I didn't even think about tonight. He said, "Yeah, imagine how happy the people who's truck that is are going to be when they find out their truck's been found!" I didn't even think about that..I can't imagine how I would feel if my vehicle was stolen.

Well, it's over with now, and all's well that end's well! Now, I just hope they find whoever stole the truck! You better watch out bad boys..bad boys.. whatcha gonna do..whatcha gonna do when they come for you?!

reprimanded

This evening I went and got a pedicure (as instructed my by honey.....thanks babe! :0) and while I was there, decided to get a much needed eyebrow waxing. The lady who did my waxing, went and got all the stuff and then came to wax my eyebrows. When she got close, she started looking at my eyebrows and then started muttering under her breath in Chinese. I have no idea what she was saying, but it was NOT good.

She then started talking to me and pointing to my eyebrows. I was obviously confused, so she grabbed a mirror, and gave it to me, motioning that I was supposed to look at my eyebrows. She said, "Oh look..what you do. You pluck too much on this one. This one is pretty eyebrow, but this one no."

After looking SUPER close, I noticed what she was talking about. Evidently, I decided to pluck one small area at the beginning of my eyebrow a little too much (which in my defense I don't remember..maybe a few stray hairs, but not a whole section!). She said, "You no pluck. Come see me, but no pluck!" Hahaha..I said, "ok, I see now. I see."

So she waxed my eybrows, and finished to her liking, before telling me that, "it be ok...it will grow. No more pluck! You like?!" Hahaha..

I got reprimanded by my nail lady. I totally felt about 2 yrs old. It didn't help when all of the other nail people noticed my uneven eyebrows that the lady pointed out to EVERYONE and got these "tsk..tsk..shame on you..how dare you pluck your eyebrows" look.

Well believe me, now I know!

i wonder

when I will actually remember myself, that my new web url is www.mossmoments.blogspot.com instead of www.chelseysnodgrass.blogspot.com and actually REMEMBER this fact when I enter the address in. I'm pretty sure I've forgotten it about 85 times. Oh the cons of changing the url that you've gotten used to entering in over the past year and a half.

*SIGH*

Thanksgiving '08!

Thanksgiving day was spent in Brady at my grandparent's house. We ate lots of yummy food, and spent time walking around the dairy and petting the horses! We drove back to Lorena that night.

On Friday morning, my sister Charity and I braved the crowds and did our Black Friday shopping. It actually wasn't as bad as I expected it to be! We were out from 7:00-5:30! We definitely made a day of it and got some great bargains! Bryan drove in from Shreveport that night and then joined us as we drove to Comanche the next day.

Saturday was spent having Thanksgiving #2 with my mom's side of the family at Uncle Kinley's. We had more yummy food, I got to introduce Bryan to my mom's side of the family, and then Uncle Kinley took us around on a tour of his pecan farm. Bryan loved it! :0)

We had a great Thanksgiving holiday! Now, check out some pictures of our adventures below!

back to blogging!

Well, I must apologize for my absence from the blogging world as of lately! I'm been swamped with final projects for my fall grad class. Last week I did an activity with my class, and I literally worked all day with my kids, and then worked all afternoon/night at school. I've been working so hard because I went to Shreveport this weekend, and I wanted to get everything finished by Thursday. I just knew I wouldn't enjoy my weekend as much if I knew I had to come back and finish all this crap! So, long story short, I finished my project at school at 11:15 PM on Thursday night. Yep, I was about dead after it all but so nice to know that I was D-O-N-E! I left Friday and went to Shreveport and had a wonderful weekend! :0)

Instead of doing a REALLY long post full of updates, I've decided to make lots of little ones, so keep reading.

REMINDER: I am changing my blog url tonight, so make sure you change it as well! http://www.mossmoments.blogspot.com/

I'm still here...I promise!

I'm just trying to "keep my head above water" right now. :0) I'm swamped with my grad school final project, and of course I waited until the end to get it done. Yeah, maybe not such a bright idea.

Anyways, I promise after this weekend, I'll post, WITH pictures! ;0)

Pray for me!
