5 Years.....

This is my happily ever after.... It starts with this boy... exactly 5 years ago...

I had just gotten out of a pretty awful long relationship, a few months before and the last thing on my mind was jumping into another relationship.... So I was just basically goofing off, dating here and there and well just being a teenager. I had lost pretty much all of my friends due to my ex, So I was trying to mend those friendships. I started hanging out with a girl named Sarah. One night while we were hanging out, she got a call from her cousin. He wanted to come hang out. Sarah said he's got a "way nice car!" we should go for a ride... So he came to my house, and picked us up in this brand new Lancer EVO... As soon as I opened the door to get in the back these words just blurted out of my mouth... " WOW your REALLY hot!!" his reply was.... "OK? Thanks...". ( I'm sure he was like... who is this crazy girl???) We went to the Walker Wendy's in PG and he waited in the car while we went and got a drink, I said to Sarah in the gas station, your cousin is sooo cute! She just smiled and yes, he's a good kid. :) On the way home, we exchanged numbers and that was that.

The next day I get a text message that says do you want to hang out? He came and got me and we went for a ride and just talked about EVERYTHING. I even remember LOVING his personality because we both were belting Mariah Carry's "You'll always be my baby". needless to say I was a hussy and we kissed on the 2nd time meeting. haha!

After that 2nd date, we were inseparable. I remember I was OBSESSED with the O.C. at the time, and he would come and watch it with me after I would get out of school at my house. I know he hated the show, but it was so strange to me that HE wanted to come watch just to be with me... I was a little freaked out, I wasn't used to this, I was pretty much treated like shit with my ex and I was not used to having some one just doing something to make me happy....

The first time he said he loved me was when he came and brought me flowers and lunch at my work... good OL Heritage Care Center... we were in the parking lot and he was saying goodbye... as he hugged me he said, "I love you".

My parents loved him, my friends loved him, and I loved him....

We dated for 2 years and then I was engaged. we got marred 5 months later.

This is the first month we started dating, after watching the O.C.

I can't believe how YOUNG WE LOOK!! especially HIM!

He went to dinner with me and the family, this was only 2 months after we had started dating. I just turned 18. I had kept telling my mom that he reminded me so much of my dad in certain ways... after this dinner. she definitely agreed. haha! she said to me, " you always did say you wanted to marry someone like your daddy." My dream came true.

This is our 1st camping trip in '07 with his family... we wrote on a tree "Robby and Kilie 07" that tree is still there. we go see it every year up Huntington Canyon.

This is how my life started over.... I never wanted to believe in love after the hurt I went through for years with my previous relationship... in a way I like to think this boy saved my heart. :)

I love you Robby, I can't believe it's been 5 years, Thank you for everything you've done for me. like I've said, your my world, your my everything, I don't know what I would do without you in my life. :) Happy 5 years and here's to another million!

Love always.... Kilie Manoganoff, Fred Fred, Friend, little poop, Ti Ti, or just your wife... I seriously have so many nicknames with this kid haha! :) I LOVE IT.

Sooo Great!

Umm... pretty sure this is the greatest CD out there right now!

It kind of puts you in a "want to kill every ex boyfriend" kinda mood/I wish I could sing kinda mood.... But it is an awesome album. I officially am in love with a woman named Adele right now. he he! totally kidding... but she truly is amazing.

Just thought I'd share.... :)

Crafts and puppies!! My 2 Loves....

We have lived in my house now going on 4 years and it's time I re-do some things/add.... and I know a lot of my co-workers and family have heard of the projects but have yet to see them... so here we go. :)

First off, I have wanted to make a paper book wreath for seriously A LONG time... I had seen millions! and I just didn't really like them a whole ton... i'm pretty picky to be honest... but I fell across this bad boy and this is the one I wanted to do...

( I love her blog check it...) http://www.theshowandtellblog.com
So here is mine... I just threw the little "live" sign in I dont love it but it'll work until I find something else to fill it.




It's HUGE and I needed it to be huge to fill up my walls. I have those vaulted ceilings so I have lots of wall to fill up.


And in my walk in area we have this "balcony" type thing that was just empty.. so I found a vintage chair off of KSL and the little table was special. My Bestie McKell had this at her house and it was her sweet grandma joe's and she GAVE it to me.. *tear* we re-did it in blue, cuz i'm obsessed with the Krylon Ocean something or other. I LOVE IT!

My grey pillow I made... ruffles are my fav right now.

Here's what the rest of the table looks like... These pics are horrible i'm sorry... I need a new camera I think.

I bought this beaut at Ti Pan. *love*

The view from "down there" :)

My mom is in charge of her wards super saturday type thingy... and we've been going all over the place to find easy projects... I found this at wood connections. and I painted it that Krylon Ocean breeze?? ( the name is changing every paragraph i'll have to go see what it is for sure) BUT I LOVE THE COLOR!... I'm also REALLY into glazing these days with the Faux glaze in black. it makes all the details stand out.

Robby said I had to take a pic of the flower he got me a few nights ago cuz it's a "perfect" flower. He's a dork. but I love him! :) and it was very sweet of him to bring me a flower.. :)

AND.... I found Robby like this the other day hehehe! Prissy loves her daddy! :) I just wish she liked me.. :( she was supposed to be MY dog!

sleepy sleepy!

Hi Teeny! this is MY Puppy! she follows me everywhere. she's my little "craft" dog too. When I sew she sits on my lap, when I paint she's underneath me somewhere... she loves to follow me around... When I blog! here she sits... on my lap. she's my baby! How could you not just love little TEENY! :)

PS: Nice bum where you from... he he he!! oh he would kill me! haha! I looked at this pic and thought of edit-ing it out... but nah.... it's a nice bum! haha!

AND we've been spending some time in Price lately, Robby's dad hasn't been feeling all that great and is coming up for heart surgery here in a few weeks so we went down there this last weekend and they had just bought a new puppy named "Sissy" her and Prissy are best of friends.. Teeny isn't so sure about her though..

I just love her puppy belly! Hers so fat! he he! She is a collie red healer mix I think. she has the cutest personality and super cute floppy ears. I just love the doggies! :)
