And sometimes my life feels like a cheesy lifetime movie...

WARNING: This is a girly, mushy, lovey dovey post. Please skip if you hate that sorta thing. I promise they won't all be like this!! Haha!

------------------------------------------------

This evening, the fam all watched a silly/cheesy/awesome Christmas movie together on Netflix.

It was about impossible Christmas wishes, and this sweet little girl trying to grant them for everyone. Our niece, Serenity, was over. She's six. She was really into the movie, so she grabbed a few blank sheets of paper and a pen and took them around to each of us and asked us to write down our wishes (adorable, right!).

She trotted off with everyone's wishes into the dining room to read them all, and told us that she was going to try her hardest to grant all of our wishes!

None of us knew what any of the others wished for, so when she came back into the living room and handed me a piece of folded paper and gave me a big silly grin, then walked to Matt and did the same, I was a little confused. I thought she was giving me my wish back! But, then I opened it.
Sweetest. Thing. Ever. It read,

"I wish Amber would kiss me. -Matt"

You know what makes this even more oh-my-goodness-I'm-gonna-throw-up-you-guys cute? Guess what I wrote as my wish (which is what Serenity handed to Matt)?

"I wish Matthew would give me a big hug!"

I am so happy that I have that man, y'all. He's pretty sweet. It's a wonderful thing to be with someone who makes you feel all fuzzy like you're in high school every now and then.

Thanks for listening to my mushy story. I had to tell someone!! Do any of you have cute cheesy stories where you feel like your life is more like a movie than real? I'd love to hear them! I'm secretly a hopeless romantic.

The Wheel of Charity!

During our interviews, one of the best parts of the filming is when we give our special guest the opportunity to spin “The Wheel of Charity”.  This serves as a way to decide which charity Deulley Noted will donate to that month.  That being said, I felt it was necessary to create this wheel from scratch, and let’s face it, buying a pre-made wheel would give me nothing to blog about ;)

So, here is what I came up with!

I used a 2x4 to make the stand, and attached it to the other half of the plywood board I used to make the wheel itself, which made for a good base.   IMG_2544

I used a guitar pick as the object of resistance. Pretty clever, I thought!IMG_2543

Then I painted it in order to use color code to determine our winning charity.IMG_2546

And that’s about it!  Not too difficult to make, and overall a very fun project.  Be sure to watch our upcoming interviews and see The Wheel of Charity in action!

ONE MONTH RESOLUTION

Greetings Humans! Matt here ;P Every New Years, millions of people make “resolutions” to change something about their lives that they don’t like. My thought? Why wait until New Years to make that decision? Why not now? So, here it goes.

I’m 22 years old, 5'11", and... 186 lbs.  So, I’ve decided to challenge myself publically to tone up

. I need you all to help me remain accountable for making healthy decisions in my diet, as well as my exercise routine (Or lack there of). I’m sure we’ve all got something about ourselves that we’d like to change for the better, so take this as an opportunity to challenge yourself to make the change. Here’s what I propose:

Myself- I’m giving myself one month to establish an adequate workout program, and will be taking photos of my progress to see if there is any change within 30 days.

You- Take a second to choose an area of your life that you’d like to improve upon. Then, for 30 days, take steps to change the situation.

At the end of the thirty day period, and all throughout the month, feel free to post details of your journey on here or our Facebook so we can all root for you and congratulate you on what we know will be a soaring success! ;D

Thanks again everyone, and good luck on your one month resolutions!
