Whew...

I think she liked me! She smiled whenever I would talk to her!! She is just so cute!


Well, today marks the end of the second week of our summer classes!! Only three more weeks to go! At this point I'm not so much exhausted by the work of the classes, but more of having to physically be there for 4 hours every day. I guess I've gotten into the routine of having classes either on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, or Tuesday and Thursday instead of everyday. Also, my theater teacher talks until noon everyday when class is scheduled to be over at 11:50. So pray that these next three weeks will be manageable and that I have not "bitten off more than I can chew." On the other hand though, I really enjoy my 8 am class. It is technology in education and we do lots of searches using the internet, and are learning lots of things that will enhance our teaching in the future! I'm not quite sure how Zach's summer class is going. He mostly has a lot of reading it sounds like, but I think he is finding it fairly tolerable. We just ask everyone to remember us prayerfully as we press on through school. It's not always enjoyable or easy, but as we know, the things most worthwhile are the ones that you must work the most hard for.

On another note, last week we had many visitors to come and visit my grandma, Mama Joyce who fell on mother's day and broke both of her wrists! My cousins Lauren and Nekayeh along with Norah Kate, my newest little cousin : ) came from Tennessee, My Aunt Melody and cousin Wesley came from Alabama, and my Aunt Lynn came from Arkansas. Even though it was the middle of the week, I went home to see everybody and got to spend some quality time holding Norah Kate and talking to her!! The pictures are at the top, because I don't know how to get them down here! Oops! That's another thing. I need help figuring out this whole blog thing! If anyone has any advice, it is more than welcome!! But continuing with Norah Kate... Zach didn't get to come over and see her, but he is very excited to meet her the next time she comes!

Today is also special to us because 400 days from now will be our wedding!! People keep saying that it will just fly by and be here before we know it, but it doesn't quite feel like that yet. Some days it seems sooo incredibly far away and others we think, "Wow it's only such and such days." It's funny how even since getting engaged, we continue to learn new things about one another that we never knew. It also brings up a lot of topics for discussion. While Nathana's Uncle Reid was up here visiting he wanted to give her some marriage counseling. haha. He said a couple must agree upon 3 things: God, Money, and Babies. We realize that this is very true and ask that God lead us in this journey up until our big day, and then through every day after that, that we have enough money and good sense to spend it wisely, and to give us no more babies than we can handle! : ) So we just wanted Uncle Reid to know we think about what he says!

That should just about do it for tonight I think. If there is anything else I think of that was just really important I'm sure I'll post it later!! Oh, Suzanne is going to the State Track meet in Louisville for Pole vaulting tomorrow, so pray that she does awesome!! Maybe we'll have pictures from that to show!!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Valentine's Weekend

Zach and I seemed to stretch out Valentine's day for the whole weekend! On Friday night we had pizza ordered in (pineapple and mushroom, my FAVORITE, Thanks honey!) Then on Saturday, Zach took me to downtown Henderson to Memories, a little antique shop, and bought me a McGuffey reader to add to my collection! After that, we went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Evansville and Zach bought me a back massage machine that goes in the chair! It does shiatsu massage and feel wonderful! He jokes that now he won't ever have to give me massages anymore, but that's not true! Then we went back to his house, and he opened his present from me, a balance thing that measures reloading stuff for guns! As you can guess, I don't exactly know what it is, I just said, "Pick something out unless you want some new polos." Motivates him every time! Today after church and lunch at Mama Joyce's we rushed to the west side of Evansville and went to the movies! We saw "When ...

Ten on Thursday

1. This week on Tuesday Elizabeth an I got to go to Cheddar's! The best part was we didn't have to wait because we went so early! 2. I have been sewing a skirt and the last step was to shir the skirt so it would cinch up and be elastic-y. It sounds all well and good until it didn't work! I realized I needed a bigger needle for my machine, so yet another trip to Jo-Anns was needed. Then I got home and I still couldn't get it to work just right. Ugh, I need some help! 3. Poor Zach had to work or be in class every single night this week, which has sucked, since we haven't gotten to see each other much at all. I missed him so much, but thankfully his schedule is better for next week! 4. This week has been so slow! It goes that way sometimes with 4 day weeks, so I am ready for the weekend. 5. Friday was our friend Ryan's birthday, so I went out to eat with he and Kayleigh since Zach was working. 6. Working out is going good and have lost another 3 lbs, whi...
