I need your help!

That's right. I'm shamelessly promoting myself on the inter-world. Vote for me for Matt Holt's March Madness friendship edition. Yes, it's a total popularity contest and I don't want to lose! It's neck and neck, with me behind, so I need YOUR help.

Follow the link below and vote for Carly Saade. In return I will write you the best post EVER!

Thank you internet.

Snowed In

Hello internet world! We have been snowed in since Tuesday night at the Saade-Fisher household. This morning we woke up to the inches of ice (that had been sandwiched between inches of snow) finally melted. We were lucky enough not to lose power, it sounds like everyone around us did.


It was a nice excuse to be lazy, even if we got a little stir crazy at times. Brady managed some work from home in between our Harry Potter and How I Met Your Mother marathons, Uno games, and beer drinking. One day we managed to walk to the nearest redbox; we walked three miles in four inches of snow while it raining. Freezing rain that is.

I can't wait to tell how "In my day we had to walk in the snow and rain THREE MILES..." :) We made up for our workout by eating. All. The. Time. Something about the cold outside (certainly not boredom) made us hungry every second of the day.


As you can see, Kyzer loves the snow....



Minion seemed to prefer this:

Oh, and if you're wondering why a little snow shuts down our city, this article is for you: Critics of Seattle in the snow

For Brady

I've been having a bit of a rough time lately. It's the reason I've been absent from the blogger world, and unfortunately it's made me push my love away too. So this is for you Brady. I love you. Thanks for hanging in there with me without complaint. 



When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use the tools and gifts
We got yeah we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we didn't tend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn, how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got, and what I'm not
And who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
I'm still looking up

I won't give up on us
God knows I'm tough, he knows
We got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

<3
