Updates on a couple things

Well, we have done really horrible at keeping up with our blog! It has been such a busy summer for the both of us it seems that our time is totally taken by work and other things. Also, it seems to us we haven't done anything exciting enough to blog about! Nathana's family did take a vacation to Florida at the beginning of July and we'll have pictures up soon. Zach didn't get to go this time, but he will have many years in the future to get to go!

Nathana is working a few more hours a week at the daycare and Zach is working 5 days a week at McDonald's for the rest of the summer or until he finds another job. Also, an important decision we have made is that Zach is going to leave school and become a lineman. Well, actually Zach made the decision, but Nathana supports him in it. : ) We have both been praying about this and what was the right decision for us, and Zach feels that this is where God is leading him, so who are we to question our God? Keep us in your prayers as we continue to plan the wedding and figure out all of the stressful parts of planning a life together.

On the wedding front, we haven't really done much. It is less than 11 months away now! : ) We know we still have plenty of time left to get everything done though, so we aren't rushing to figure things out too soon. As of right now we have my church booked, have our officiant (my Uncle David), have the bridesmaids and groomsmen, and Nathana has looked at lots of dresses!
Any guidance on what comes next? haha.

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...

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...

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 ...
