future books

when i was younger my best friend (kat) and i would spend hours upon hours making “future books”.   We would pour through magazines and JcPenny catalogs looking for our dream life. i would pay good money to find one of these books! we would cut and paste these pics into spiral notebooks. we would name our kids, dogs and our husbands. the jobs they would have, places we would shop, vacations we would take…it was our dreams on paper…

the “beyaz” commercial that is on tv right now reminded me of this…shopping for your spouse, your diploma, kids, house and more. if only life were that easy or fulfilling. i would be married to ken with 4 wonderful kids who did everything right and have  dogs who didnt have gas…(ewww bella, she is laying on the couch and lets just say something is not agreeing with her belly, ewww yuck!) but…. really thats not the world i would wish for. and although we all wish we could have things easier or better sometimes i love “my ken” and my kiddos, and my life.  some of these pictures are things i wanted then and some now…you decide which is which:)
